It doesn't have to be one of the big rallies, either. The big ones in the big cities make the news individually, but seeing small and medium rallies EVERYWHERE means more people see them in real life and not as filtered by the media.

Liberté, égalité, grenouilles!

Frogs are so back

Sometimes humanity doesn't suck. Creativity, culture blending and handmade craft infusing folk tradition, just beautiful. www.nytimes.com/card/2025/10...

Everything they are doing & saying right now is very obviously meant to clear the way for mass repressive violence. Fact checking is not going to do shit. Talking about kitchen table issues is not going to do shit. We need open, unapologetic defiance & conflict.

I’m sorry, which is it: are boys in an acute crisis that demands that all the nation’s resources and attention be leveraged toward their improved happiness and status? Or is their natural superiority only obscured by affirmative action for women? You have got to pick one because you can’t have both.

“It actually doesn’t take much to be considered a difficult woman. That’s why there are so many of us.” Jane Goodall

I mean we had hot in herre and that is about goddamn it

Nostalgia is a particular type of forgetting. Treasuring some imaginary past that never really existed. Fredric Jameson describes the concept as “a desperate attempt to appropriate a missing past, [refracting it] though the iron law of fashion change and the emergent ideology of the generation”

Yep just sitting here in Boulder sipping my chardonnay and discussing how we take down coal mining, as we do

All my best to this FEMA employee, and may they succeed in their mission:

Independent theatres ftw!

Did I miss the rapture?

Yeah, I had to try three sites to cancel Disney+ but the runaround only made me more determined to do it.

Happy Earth, Wind and Fire day! L

This country has always been racist but at least, for a relatively short while, we didn't celebrate racists.

@theonion.com has never been better

Kat is still out there fighting four hours after this. I'm just fucking livid.

My mom called me last night about the Kimmel firing, saying "This is how Hitler got started!" I quickly responded, "By firing the late night tv hosts?" Turns out, mom was right.

Already a crowd outside the Disney lot! A friend send me this. I am out of town but there in spirit. Oh, and Kimmel didn't lie like he's being accused (objectively true), Trump and his whole retribution crew have just been after him and finally found a way to twist his words that gained traction.

this is the shit i want to see

The Roy family knows that parks and cruises is where the rubber meets the road

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

I unfortunately fact-checked this.

Successfully distracted the kid who is addicted, after a few weekend days, to watching a show on an iPad with a physical NEWSPAPER we are looking at pictures, she is transfixed, we are making imaginary plans to go to every house in the real estate section, computers are a scam

I remind myself regularly that courage is something we admire not just because it is good, but because it is rare. I feel that way about a lot of virtues, these days.

not an exaggeration to say I am WEEPING with laughter at this reply from someone who hadn't seen that Robert Redford died today

People getting fired for quoting Kirk's actual words and being apathetic of his death makes sense when you realize two things: 1. people are scared shitless of right-wing backlash 2. A lot of higher-ups at these institutions likely agreed with him.

They will persecute an honest Black women as they defend all the white men who actually break this law (which she didn’t).

It's fascinating how, because the left is coded as feminine, criticism is "scolding," while all the shaming and blaming on the right is masculine and therefore not "scolding."

The jokes on Bluesky are getting better. Reading comprenshion and satire awareness sadly are not.

Father, forgive them; they know not how to rise and grind.

So they gonna give the dad the 100k or nah?

Keep picturing Patel dropping the casings in terror after reading “if you read this youre gay”

due to fascism it's going to be called the Kum and Get Married

We don't yet have any idea what the ideology of the Kirk shooter was. But we do know that the Denver school shooter was a far-right white supremacist. www.denverpost.com/2025/09/11/e...

If you're wondering whether Harris is done being a good soldier, here she is on Biden after Dobbs: "[Abortion] was a huge issue on which the president was not seeking to lead. Joe struggled to talk about reproductive rights in a way that met the gravity of the moment."

I think if you listen to a podcast with fake AI people saying AI generated words you are functionally dead, you are basically a phone to me at that point

Focusing on what truly benefits kids, with their input, would save us all. I wish that, collectively, we desired a free future for children more than we desired the power to harm or control another adult. Every day I try to imagine that better world for all the children who should get to live there.

SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional ALSO SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in targeting whom to detain and deport is cool cool cool

just sitting here thinking about the courage and determination of E. Jean Carroll compared to the abject craven collapse of the pretty much every silicon valley CEO

They really used to just let anything be a constellation, huh.

The reason why Hookland is free to use is because lovely things can happen when you focus on enchantments rather than being a landlord. You all own it. You really do.

I was interviewed at the beginning of the WGA strike by a major tech journal about our AI demands. The interview began very 'I'm guessing you haven't spent much time with AI" and ended with "Oh, God. Yeah, that would be bad." Rewriting intention into something written without it is a herculean task.
