Really important point about the Minnesota fraud scandal from @citizencohn.bsky.social: open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

We have less than a year to get rid of weak, corporate centrists and milquetoast Democrats heading into the midterms. There has to be a 2 to 4-year culling project. Have to get rid of all of them. They are part of the problem, and they aren't made for this moment or built for this fight.

schools banning cellphones but encouraging chatgpt are not schools that in fact care about children's mental health

HUBBLE DISCOVERED A NEW TYPE OF COSMIC OBJECT!! 🌌 named “cloud 9”, it’s a “failed galaxy”, described as a starless, gas-rich, dark-matter cloud!

Safe But Boring To Lick. Zero flavour, some kinda cool striations and pitted textures, but this is a feast for the eyes not tongue. At least, geologically. Socially and criminally, you’d likely find it not safe at all.

👋 Safe But Boring To Lick. Tourmaline looks like a jolly rancher (and can have equally tongue-nicking snags with striations & pits), but won’t dissolve in your salvia enough for flavours and is inert enough to be jewellery.

"Can we finally put this BS to bed that Donald Trump is the 'peace president,' he is antiwar... this man bombed 7 countries last year... the US has no authority to do what it did on Saturday. We are not the world's police force." Me on MSNOW this morning, talking about Trump and Venezuela and law:

Tomorrow me is gonna be super pissed at December me. That guy left a mess to be cleaned up.

Why didn’t you tell me I could use waffles instead of toast for my breakfast sandwich?

We don’t have healthcare or education or housing or food or anything really because our money is used to fund a military that will go in and steal oil and resources for corporations that we’re also subsidizing with our money.

If you want to support me, for now please follow @beyondxandy.bsky.social here and on Instagram, and to tell your networks about it More instructions for how to help will come in the near future, after I've had some time to work Thank you in advance for cheering me on through this year 💖🏳️‍⚧️🧬

Hearing rumors that John Fetterman, Lindsay Graham, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and Jim Jordan have written a bipartisan bill changing the name of the arepas served in the Capitol cafeteria to “freedom corn cakes.”

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month. It’s about oil and regime change. And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

Since it's not illegal, please cut off your partnership with all "A.i." companies. As it is, you're helping mainline their dangerous products directly into schools. For your consideration, a list of questions about your support of "A.i." in schools: bsky.app/profile/greg...

No they don’t. They have more than enough money to lose. They could buy and destroy literally every media source and it wouldn’t change their lives at all.

Ebooks are reading. Audiobooks are reading. Graphic novels are reading. Pulp reading is reading. Adults reading YA is reading. It's all good, my friends. Don't let anyone tell you different.

2025 sucked. In 2026, we are taking back our science! We are excited to launch our Substack: The Science Fight Club. Read our first post, written by @cdelawalla.bsky.social, a review of 2025, a preview of 2026, and a big call to action. open.substack.com/pub/sciencef...

THE DAY CARES ARE LOCKED BECAUSE YOU MADE A GENERATION-LONG EFFORT TO MAKE IT AS EASY AS POSSIBLE TO KILL THE CHILDREN INSIDE THEM YOU ABSOLUTE FUCKING GHOULS

Gym regulars. Be kind and welcoming to the people showing up this week. Remember how difficult it was for you to start and how many times you failed. Kindly correct the other regulars that complain.

31 December 1995. Still the perfect goodbye.

We don't have a government. We have a bunch of guys who heard things on social media. We don't have due process. We have entire groups being punished for the alleged actions of a few.

No my man, the answer absolutely involves taxing those gains.

People lining up to celebrate MTG or other GOP castoffs despite the damage they’ve done to vulnerable groups and democracy just shows how much they desperately only want their lives to remain the same and are more than fine sacrificing anyone and everything to get there.

And this is just less than a year. Each day RFK Jr. stays in office as the head of our science and health system, the more his negligence compounds. Congress made a mistake confirming him, but they still have a chance to fix it. It's time they #ImpeachRFKJr www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

Great thread. I also love that the CEO threatened to kill his staff if they raised the price on their food court hotdog.

This Nazi passed a bill to imprison trans kids' parents two weeks ago.

Realizing this also really bothers me because of the lack of solidarity. Weingarten leads a union. A UNION. And she seems incapable of wrapping her head around the way billionaires are doing their best to destroy the jobs, livelihoods, and dignity of millions of workers through "A.i."

I’ll save you a lot of money. Reduce class sizes, pay teachers more, provide more community supports and more mental health supports.

What works is adequately funding schls, paying Teachers a liveable wage so they don't need extra jobs, and healthier working/learning conditions.

That’s actually not a bad idea, instead of voting for candidates, you vote for the candidate’s ideas with no name attached

Someone remake “It’s a Wonderful Life” but Mr. Potter believes that hoarding is morally required so he can devote resources to delivering a far future with trillions of humans while George Bailey is like, “Gosh Darnit! What if taking care of people today is what takes care of people in the future?!”

Mom: "You should teach high school." AFT: "Welcome to our AI academy, in partnership with Microsoft."

Respectfully, the courses in your AI Academy seem designed to push "A.i." use on teachers. I see phrases like "You will leave with AI resources you can use tomorrow." I see no focus on handling cheating and no mention of the cognitive or suicides associated with LLMs. aiinstruction.org

I think we do ourselves a disservice by even calling them tools. Tool implies usefulness. There is zero proven usefulness and significant proven harm. I don’t need to learn how to use something that is hurting all of us, I need support and help stopping it from fully infiltrating our schools.

No. Data centers cause harm, but you aren't the recipient so you overlook it.

How do you maximize safety and privacy for a tool that is unethical and based on theft????????

Subbing and a meeting after school on the last day of the year. Deep breaths and positive thoughts. This too shall pass.

We were listening to Hamilton today in class and I was singing all the songs. A kid comes up to me and calls me an undercover theatre kid. I think it was a compliment.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

When Trump dies-- could be at any point, who knows -- we get Vance. They'll blame a lot of stuff on Trump AND try to fast-track an even uglier Christofascism. We must be preparing for this now & organizing accordingly. Grassroots activism, coalitions. Dissent. Sand in gears. GOTV. Every angle.

Buckle up Dem establishment, because me and my maximum wage tied to the minimum wage proposal are coming for your asses

If you’ve never thought about whether you’d use your body in an attempt to protect children who aren’t yours, now’s a good time to stop talking and listen.

I teach Sociology of Childhood, and when we talk about school shootings, my students tell me about how they also do these checks in their classes--noting locks on doors, thinking about how to escape and where to hide. I hate that they have to mind those risks while trying to learn.

Yeah it is cool when billionaires fund struggling public health outposts but you know what’s cooler? Them not existing and us funding them on the regular without them having to go begging constantly.

There isn't a single problem "solved" by edtech that couldn't be fixed with smaller classes led by well-paid teachers given real academic freedom

the 6-7 phenomenon is in no way different from any other catchphrase that kids have yelled out at any point in the last hundred years, there's no daylight between that and when i was in high school, the year straight where every guy kept yelling "i'm rick james bitch"

Please consider gifting this book to a friend or family member for the holiday! A great way to use the holiday to expand the public’s understanding and care for trans kids. ☺️ a.co/d/cdko8U5

Let the revolution against billionaires and AI begin. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/11/t...

The people who support $12B in corporate welfare to farms and forgave $80B in auto bailouts and forgave $700B in bank bailouts and forgave $755B in PPP loans want you to know that forgiving medical debt and student debt is socialism😐
