I mean honestly, why shouldn't he? This kinda stuff, I don't like it but it doesn't upset me because it's the more honest part of politics.

I want to watch Wicked 4 Good but I can't find 2 or 3 anywhere!

The wildest thing to me is that multiple Black people had to die in a manner akin to public spectacles for 2020 to happen and the backlash is being fueled by white guys who can’t sell a screenplay or manuscript.

There is enough for everyone. There is enough for everyone. There is enough for everyone. There is enough for everyone. There is enough for everyone. There is enough for everyone. There is enough for everyone. There is enough for everyone. Today and every day.

One Piece is one of if not the greatest piece of storytelling ever made. I'll fight about it.

bari weiss is so dumb for real

U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis will retain an order keeping the wrongly deported El Salvador national Kilmar Abrego Garcia out of federal custody for the rest of the year, the judge said at a Monday hearing, reports @ashleymurray.bsky.social and @fischler.bsky.social.

🏆 on so many levels

i like movies with mixed reviews a whole lot. i'm always suspicious of universally loved movies, and a lot of times a universally hated movie was hated for good reason. give me something that got a 40% on RT with a user score of 70%

When I think about how many people it takes to not do the right thing and what that might say about humankind in general, it's terrifying.

DOJ broke the law today by refusing to produce all the Epstein files. It also broke the law by redacting information other than to protect victims. Yet, the corporate media is acting that DOJ did us a huge favor. Now, more than ever, help build independent, pro-democracy media. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

Trump administration this, Trump administration that. The highest law enforcement agency in the country and the Department of Justice are colluding to protect child sex abusers. This isn't just cabinet members and new Trump hires. This is an indictment of the entire criminal justice system.

A discharge petition to advance a policy ending congressional stock trading was finally moving forward when Hakeem Jeffries sucked the air out of it. By proposing his own bill that no Republican would sign, Jeffries effectively made consensus impossible. From @ddayen.bsky.social:

Tax these churches immediately.

I know that it's not at all equivalent but given that he and his cohort will not be punished by the next administration (let's be real), I atleast look forward to seeing his shit torn down. It's just the kind of symbolic gesture toward justice Democrats can get behind.

“Money can’t buy happiness.” Let me find out for myself 🙂

"You miss 100% of the shots you don't take." so Steph Curry has a 0.0000000000000001 FG%?

I'm not a big fan of Jasmine Crockett's politics, I'm a hater of bigotry.

'You probably think she's [a radical leftist...because] she looks and acts a little differently.' The same way they called Kamala Harris a radical leftist. I wonder what the through-line is.

A lot of white leftists using a lot of big words and convoluted 'electoral analysis' to say Jasmine Crockett should know her place.

I can *100% assure you* that if this report found that trans people & "wokeness" tanked the Harris campaign, the DNC would release it in a heartbeat

My coworker in his 40s said there is no male version of gynecologists in a vaguely mra rant today. I am honestly dumbfounded mostly at the fact that he's not technologically illiterate. How can you believe something like that, be mad about it, and never bother to google?

How much does it cost to lose a trans child to suicide? Because that’s where this is heading.

I don't spend a lot of time thinking about the genitalia of children or strangers, friends, or family...

@govpritzker.illinois.gov at your Reddit AMA today you ignored the DOZENS of people asking WHY the ISP are not only protecting ICE, but are brutalizing, arresting, and using chemical weapons on protesters. Are you not in control of the ISP or are you ok with this? #MeltICE #Chicago #ICE #CBP #IL

You would cash a check with the fascist's signature on it? stinky ... .../s

If you don’t value accountability, you’re telling vulnerable people you aren’t safe. It means when conflict inevitably arises, you can't be relied upon to repair the harm or navigate the resolution properly. In positions of power, it’s even worse. 1/2

@govpritzker.illinois.gov Where does the buck stop?

If @govpritzker.illinois.gov is not in control of the ISP (Illinois State Police) THEN WHO IS??????? If @govpritzker.illinois.gov *is* in control of the ISP, then WHY ARE THEY DEFENDING ICE AND ASSAULTING RESIDENTS???? #MeltICE #Chicago #Illinois #CBP #ICE

No blood for oil

the Discover tab is a route to a dark land

90% of Democrats and 2 in 3 Americans approve of Universal Healthcare(single payer or public option). Anytime someone speaks as though "the left" has undue power or control over the party, why are we arguing about ACA subsidies?

Nice try but you can't Gaslight me into being interested in anything Star Wars related. Get lost.

The Democrats are NOT going to reverse any of this. They didnt reverse Guantanamo Bay. They didn’t reverse the PATRIOT Act. They didnt reverse Citizens United. They didnt reverse ICE camps. They didnt reverse the COVID funding guts. Nothing changes or stops with them in power

How do you stand for rehabilitative justice but not rehabilitation?

it's at the very least a practice of the national amnesia to pretend some pristine innocence is being sullied for the first time

Violent video games cause violence in real life. Not directly. But the slippery slope fallacy is misused to obfuscate nuance and evade responsibility for how we socialize children. And it's just silly to say we shouldn't question if children should be consuming military and firearm ads all day.

How can you claim to believe in democracy but have no faith in the people?

"all oppressed people have a right to violence"

Dear white people, Making a racist joke or insult about someone as contemptible as Candace Owens is still just you being racist.

I saw a post that said a Japanese museum "white-washed" the terrible history of Imperial Japan. No hate to that poster but it made me think cause we use white-washing for making whites look better through historical revisionism and in that instance it's apparent why it's white, at least I thought.

If I look at the clock right now and the last two digits make a prime number, I'll start getting ready. 🫣

I'm not a lawyer but I really don't feel comfortable with this new framing that a military operation killing civilians is not a war crime.

Stay away from people who think you're arguing every time you try to express yourself.

Why is Donald Trump pardoning an ex head of state involved in drug trafficking while starting war with another country over drug trafficking? Someone(probably Peter Thiel through someone else) asked him to.

I learned Talib Kweli is on bluesky. I wish I could take that back. (I love Talib Kweli and can hardly believe that's really him but unc has been going at it with /instigators/ for days)
