so @msnowreports.bsky.social says #mtg "railed against business as usual in Washington [and] the rising costs throughout the nation" and announced "she will step down on Jan. 5, 2026 — two days after her congressional pension officially vests." Rising costs, business as usual, indeed.

For peeps who don't know @colinmochrie.bsky.social beyond improv, here's a great interview that shows why he's a bit of a hero to me. . youtu.be/jfm-mrcY89w?...

As we approach World Aids Day (Dec.1) and mourn the obscene loss of so much, here's a gentle reminder that we did not lose an entire generation to the virus. But if we don't acknowledge the few survivors we finish the destruction. . youtu.be/wgmWZJ3FriU #HIV #hivAIDS #survive2thrive #LGBT #queer

He is dying. It’s clear to see. But he will drag us all down before he goes. He will starve as many children as possible and separate all the families he can. He will fill his already fat pockets with money meant for disabled veterans and the unhoused. He will spread misery until his last breath.

Neurodivergence is being mocked your whole life for being "weird" because you're different, then after years of social trauma finally learning to embrace your differences only to be told "everyone is like that, you're not special" 😒🤦‍♀️

A look at my most recent blog posts at briangryphon.ca

#ICE isn't "deporting" immigrants, it is kidnapping them. #DOGE isn't "fixing" the government, it is dismantling it. #Trump isn't "helping" Americans, he is retaliating against them. #PamBondi isn't "upholding" the Constitution, she is ignoring it. #FuckTrump #Resist #Felon47

Aaarrrghhhh As part of a Community Feedback feature at @thegamecrafter.bsky.social I typed the following: Visually stunning image filling up the main block of the sales page. But nothing for the visually impaired, or anyone using a translation function to read text. #gamedesign #international

I'm a #rainbowBaby as in I was born after a miscarriage. There's lots of support for parents (over their loss/ mixed joy) but I've not found any group/ site for us. Sure it's great to be this #blessing - but I came into being in what was effectively a haunted space. Anyone know of a support group?

found on web.

Well @caelan.bsky.social @neginfarsad.bsky.social seems we might be too late.

A very offline cousin sent this to fam group chat. This story is breaking containment.

For someone who thinks they're a genius, repeating the work of men running from a previous failed state seems somehow, uninspired. . Merely having the foresight of sending an early down payment doesn't make it anything special- even at $20-40 billion. .

Hey @senatedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.org this just symbolizes that there's nothing they won't destroy while you waste time and energy arguing protocol + procedure.

Trump is freaking out about not getting an award that is designed to celebrate everything that he works to destroy

And honestly, at this point... this is what it is going to take.

Now that the House has been told there's no reason 2b in DC Mon+ Tue, will we see @housedemocrats.bsky.social holding Town Halls, Press Conferences in grocery stores or clinics? Anything more than another strongly worded press release. If you're still thinking about comfort you'll be voted out.

Dems "be relevant to the moment"

Whether they silently agree with him, want to protect their pensions or they just don't have the cajones, @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social failures are mounting.

Conservatives, please consult a bdsm professional because this need for dominance in public life is inappropriate. There’s children here. Nobody needs to see your kinks. You’re blaming and subjugating communities for your disgusting perversions and that’s a menace.

They think the Democrats should become the Seinfeld of politics; a party about nothing.

SCROTUS has lost the last shred of legitimacy it had. . Dems must commit to impeach every bought and paid for federal judge. . Time for Nuremberg II or a Truth +Reconciliation Commission once democracy is restored. . "Just following orders" won't save traitors.

The Truth of politics is billionaires know how to play both parties. This idea that both parties do choose winners and losers in future administrations is a hard fact people need to come to terms with. Navigating through the bullshit is what we are all doing.

I haven't seen this many references to caves in the news since the hunt for Osama.

From that other place. .

Headlines "Trump’s trade war is now having unexpected side effects for online shoppers" + "countries suddenly stop sending packages to US" are a tacit admission 'mainstream media' has been ignoring the impending end of 'de minimis' exemption in favour of more salacious news. I'd say "do better" but-

Re-write from @joemygod.bsky.social for accuracy: "Trump Admin To *Seize* Control Of DC’s Union Station" because words matter, and 'take control' is just so 'business as usual' and this world is anything but that. . www.joemygod.com/2025/08/trum...
