I heard they’re still struggling to get the president to master the line “putting on the ritz!”

BREAKING: Coalition of Leading Women’s Organizations Denounce Politically Motivated Charges Against Rep. LaMonica McIver, DOJ Must Drop Charges! Read: bit.ly/437hAZN @higherheights.bsky.social @momsrising.org @reproductivefreedomforall.org @reproaction.bsky.social @demcast.com @nwlcactionfund.org

Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.

We’re done with “the old white guy is the safe candidate” forever now, right? Right???

It’s nice to launch a thing, even better to know you get to take a fight to them every single day. defendamericaaction.org

Walking my dog and a man just slowed down and leaned out the window and yelled “AW YEAH IS HE YOUR BEST FRIEND?? I KNOW YOU LOVE HIM!” So there are very good catcalls actually. Now we know.

Of course Ryan Gosling can be a Star War. He is a Bladerunner, like Han Solo before him.

the green m&m WILL be fuckable again

the sink helps you with water

Trump: "An old fashioned term that we use -- groceries. I used it on the campaign. It's such an old fashioned term, but a beautiful term. Groceries. It says a bag with different things in it."

So what’s the over/under on another 4 hours

I’m not saying everyone needs to do *this*. But @booker.senate.gov figured out the biggest best thing HE could do right now. And then he did it. Everyone needs to do *that*.

<screams in Argonaut>

@booker.senate.gov says plainly that he's doing this because he was challenged by his constituents to rise to the moment. Our calls and emails and faxes and protests, they can all matter.

GREEN EGGS AND HAM

What Booker is doing is symbolic as fuck for Black people and if you don’t get it or say it’s not enough just know that this is why the rest of us aren’t helping yall.

After every screening of Mr Smith Goes to Washington the audience should have learned the record for longest filibuster in America was held by a white supremacist protesting the Civil Rights Act. Someone should have broken this record long ago just on principle.

courage. begets. courage.

What if someone in government made history for the right reasons??? AND shared the stories of voiceless Americans losing freedoms, loved ones, hard earned benefits and jobs? So silly, such pointless.

The man has run into burning buildings multiple times to save constituents. He’s a vegan and a workout junkie. He’s got this.

Woke up and checked for something good for once and here it is!!

When the order of business is violating our rights, firing veterans, attacking anyone who doesn’t look like an 80s movie villain, and fucking with people’s hard earned benefits INTERRUPT THE ORDER OF BUSINESS

Have you ever met someone from Maine? This one is the one they elected leader of Maine.

“There was no war plans. There was no Chinese war plans. There was no secret plans. That’s not what we were doing at the Pentagon.” — Secretary Pete Hegseth

Teslas are becoming the new MAGA hats and that does not indicate an understanding of the market actually.

<stares in NY voter> <cracks knuckles>

Joining @allinwithchris.bsky.social at 8pm ET to definitely not talk about the secret China war plans no one showed to Elon today at the Pentagon. And I did my makeup on a moving Amtrak!

‘No Way to Please Everyone’ Says Only University Where Students Are Regularly Kidnapped

So the courts are holding up because they bothered to plan. And Democratic leadership did exactly what with the same knowledge.

This is America, doing it bigger is kind of our whole thing.

It would be nice not to be dependent on super wealthy donors, but since we are, we really need them to starting funding media. Macro and micro. Massive scale.

republicans have a media arm that tells their core voters every day that democrats are evil. this seeps into non political people. democrats have not made any considerable media investments at all over 60 years. and here we are.

Did not think we would hit Kafka levels in the first quarter but here we are

Attacks on trans people = state imposition of traditional gender roles = women like me (and likely you) are fucked, cis or no.

Aside from books and pretty architecture, your local library will also tell you about mutual aid efforts, neighborhood advocacy groups, community events. That’s why fascists target libraries. Truly democratic educational spaces are dangerous. So join one.

So dumb! It’s all so dumb.

Among the many things Dems need to do immediately (when/if voters can tip the balance towards Members Who Give A Shit) is fight to fix the court: strong (criminal) anti-corruption rules, additional seats, term limits. Those who already give a shit could start by making this REALLY BIG, right now.

The Weird Guy theory of history is much more on point than the Great Man Theory.

This is the first time I’ve skipped a thing. In 20 years of this. I woke up with one of those late-to-finals heart thumps, rushed to the internet to find out how behind I was, and in 6 min felt totally correct in watching two episodes of Married At First Sight: Australia and going to bed.

Begging donors to understand how badly we need a media ecosystem funded at scale.

i am going to put a finer point on this: executive orders are not laws. and they certainly are not royal decrees. they are interpretations of existing law for the purposes of enforcement. the fact that so many people are treating them as laws is actually driving me a bit insane.

Because I read Embedded (excellent Substack from @catucci.bsky.social) I learned about theyseeyourphotos.com an AI tool that tells you what your face makes people want to sell you.

Ok now read this one. and just lose it over all of the women who could have and the women who did even though and the ones who gave up and the ones who helped each other and lithub.com/leaving-corm...

Oh look, it's me and @sorayachemaly.bsky.social and @jessmcintosh.bsky.social and @sharkfu.bsky.social and @emilyjmartin98.bsky.social and a whole host of other brilliant organizers and thinkers getting you (and each other) ready to fight for sex ed in 2025. You def want to join us.

Every member of both chambers should be talking about this every single day. Hold hearings.

Stoked to see her out early on the wannabe enabler crowd and as always, grateful we have someone so strong on abortion taking them on.

After literal months of not posting anything anywhere but IG, I’m feeling a loss of connection to ~the discourse~. How are y’all handling this moment? Do you post the same thing here and on Threads and on fka Twitter? Or is it a different convo in each space?

since ball is life would that then not mean that when one says "fuck it we ball" what is truly being said is "fuck it we live"

Behold: the first thing that gave me FOMO about Bluesky and made me post.
