Lovely obituary of Bonnie Tyler, this:

Worth a read “Major Jason Watson was the person who said no. The one who said enough. The one who took a stand in spite of the consequences. In spite of what was expected of him.”"Courage. Bravery. Resolve. Someone with the backbone to say no regardless of what… substack.com/@closertothe...

Decades later, catching Bonnie Tyler’s “Total Eclipse” or “Holding Out for a Hero” on the radio still gives me full-body chills. That’s the power of pure, unfiltered talent. Thank you for a voice that never stopped moving us. Rest in power, rockstar. 🕊️🖤

Dammit! We lost Bonnie Tyler

“He’s feeding the cats!” “He’s feeding the dogs!” That sneaky Mamdani. ❤️🐶❤️🐈

I'm glad that Graham Platner is out. But it is so disturbing to contemplate that the man who was *twice* elected president makes Platner look like an amateur when it comes to serial sexual assaults.

One Nazi down. Graham Platner ends Maine Senate campaign, will withdraw from ballot As Graham Platner exits, Maine Dems plan nominating convention in coming weeks as they aim to unseat Susan Collins and take back the U.S. Senate. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Thinking about the Mamdani and Platner campaigns. There's lots of revealing differences, but one that I'm struck by is how they each impacted how the left is popularly viewed in this country. Look at the damage Platner has done and the goodwill Mamdani has generated. We can't afford more Platners.

Maine should run the most left candidate possible—one that doubles down on the Mamdani effect. That man has become a rockstar and rejuvenated the most important city in America. Maine should try to replicate it.

No birthright citizenship for “female aliens”? Too late.

Just fixed my Bluesky following count - removed 72 inaccurate accounts using blueskytracker.app

Ken Paxton’s own party impeached him. His own staff reported him to the FBI. Now his own defense attorney is endorsing our campaign. Those closest to Ken Paxton know he's unfit for office.

Storm the Capitol, plead guilty, get divorced over it, then whine that dates go south when you bring it up. John, this isn’t a sob story…it’s just consequences. No sympathy here. #USDemocracy #Pinks apple.news/AXWGVzDknQWK...

In small towns across Canada, there are museums that document the history of the area. They contain items you won't find in larger museums, and they are typically run by volunteers. youtube.com/shorts/9y8r1...

Line out the door to trash data centers in nashville tonight…

ME TOO. They all owe me cash

I live in the Chicago area and crickets from local media - ICE has never let up, yet this continues. It's been normalized to the point that escalation and violence barely registers outside of the communities affected. This is how fascism spreads.

Good morning and Happy #TacoTuesday 🌮 There will be parties tonight and if you want to be listed leave a comment or meme. If you are #NeverTrump and follow me I will be glad to boost you or include in packs. Leave a comment. If you are close to 5 10 15 or 2k followers let me know! Repost #Blues

Good morning I'm up early and ranting. The Republican party has reached backwards to the fifties & is trying to scare voters with the "communists are everywhere" rhetoric. Well, progressive, socialist programs make oligarch pay taxes, will balance our budgets & is not Communism. Anyway stay cool😎

@pattyinaz.bsky.social THANKS!

Well, it's official. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Same, kids. Same.

blah blah the terrible communists blah blah blah

1st, 60 to 70 percent of Walmart's electronics, clothes & toys come from CHINA. 2nd, Food has NOT come down. While the spikes have stabilized my groceries still cost 40% more than they did in 2024. 3rd Rump is buying gluts of oil from Iran to whom he gave billions Blah blah indeed 😡

Nirav Shah has a medical degree and law degree, speaks four languages, is a public health expert, finished 2nd in the Maine Dem primary for governor, seems liked and respected, and frequently makes dinner at home with his brilliant wife. I hate him already. He'd make an exceptional U.S. senator.

I hope Belgium wins against West Russia, Trumpistan 5 to 0. And if/when they do the entire stadium should chant repeatedly Pedophile Trump Curse! Pedophile Trump Curse! Pedophile Trump Curse! And Everything Trump Touches Dies!

Chris Hayes opened with… Let me tell y’all about FIFA

I'm now hoping Where's Waldo loses. Sick of the US cheating by the hands of Trump. I'm sorry for the team but that's how I feel.

“Shame on you! When money calls the shots, the #WorldCup loses all credibility. Adapting the rules to please Trump, trying to cheat to win—what a deplorable image for FIFA, for the soccer World Cup, and for the United States. Rules must be respected by everyone, in sports as in life.” #Belgium

I won't be watching any more World Cup, but since the match would have started, I will say that the only fair outcome is a Belgium win. I feel bad for Balogun unwillingly becoming the name of FIFA corruption for what might be decades. Football has a long memory.

Nazi Graham Cracker Platner drops out 1st.

McConnell is either dead or on life-support. His wife hasn't returned from China since before the announcement and his daughter's deleted all her social media accounts... for some reason. They're going to drag this out until Aug 3rd, wherein it'll be legally too late to replace him before elections

😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

WHERE THE HELL IS MITCH MCCONNELL???? #askingforacountry #GOPedos #pinks #DemVoice1

There's no way anyone believes a word of this. How the hell does he improve & recover from being DEAD?

Assuming he is dropping out, which I believe is imminent, whoever replaces Platner in the Maine Senate race is going to need a fuckton of our help. We can flip that seat! We HAVE to!

Gee, who saw THIS coming. Oh wait. I FRACKIN' DID. Told ya he was toxic. Pond Scum. Shit rolling down hill. Total douche. POS. Untrustworthy. Stinky. Bad Vibes from Hell. But Noooo. Y'all fell for his schtick like MAGA to Trump. Bravo Maine. Now suck it for another six years of Collins!

Seriously Progressives. WAKE UP. Just because Bernie endorsed Graham Cracker Platner without a hint of vetting, doesn't mean you flock to the light like maga cult members! JFC we're supposed to be the smarter party, not the GD flock following the lead sheep. Now Maine is stuck with Collins

For all those Mainers that blocked me, called me names, claimed I was "anti-progressive) & added me to hate lists....... I TOLD YOU SO. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

For those new to oxygen (hee hee) Sammy Hagar has ALWAYS been maga. Totally maga, totally racist & totally a douche. TOTALLY www.usatoday.com/story/entert...
