Very sad story from Serena, Ill. Eight year old girl dead from lightning. That’s why I tell my nieces and nephews to get inside when lightning is within eight miles of my residence.

I blocked the FDA when they changed the food pyramid to the Robert Kennedy Junior bullshit. So of course they would do this misogynist shit.

Drop out @grahamformaine.bsky.social

💔 How many of us have similar stories? Of parents and grandparents who worked to give their children the American Dream? Houston, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was our neighbor. He should be here. We demand transparency, an independent investigation, and justice.

Fulton County asked a judge to quash the subpoena, arguing it was meant to “target, harass and punish the President’s perceived political opponents” and that it was “grossly over broad and untethered to any reasonable need.”

UPDATE | Per the Columbia Co. Sheriff's Office, the suspects were staying at Alexis Miller’s house in Evans: https://www.wjbf.com/news/crime-news/4-charged-with-felonies-after-alleged-drive-by-shooting-in-columbia-county/ 

If the KOSA act passes, this will be our life, and I will mostly vanish from the Internet. I'm not putting my information out there.

A lobbiest for house's KIDS/KOSA act tried insulting DeepHumor for being against age verification.. Literally no on is taking that lobbiest side, and is getting ratioed in replies and community notes LOL www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4Ze...

Democrats need to read the fucking room. We can’t be more clear - NO ONE WANTS #KOSA OR ANYTHING LIKE IT! We want comprehensive data privacy, regulation on AI surveillance, and monopoly busting. Giving #BIgTech all our data is the exact fucking opposite of “holding them accountable”.

For those that keep saying we need age verification. I suggest you look at what the OSA has done in the UK Spoilers: its not pretty No to: KOSA KIDs Act SCREEN Act Yes to: A free an open internet Privacy LGBTQ+

NCOSE, one of the main groups pushing KOSA, has been caught citing fake cases in an attempt to shut down legal sex work. Why are Dems like @blumenthal.senate.gov still treating the faith-based, anti-porn group as respectable, reliable legislative partner?

DO NOT LET KOSA AND THE KIDS ACT PASS THROUGH THE SENATE‼️IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR PRIVACY OR SEEING ANYMORE WORK FROM ME AND OTHER ARTISTS IN GENERAL THEN SPEAK UP AND CALL AND EMAIL YOUR REPS‼️ THIS BILL IS A WOLF IN SHEEPS CLOTHING. CALL CALL CALL. www.badinternetbills.com

We have ONE fucking chance before we lose our right to privacy online forever. Act NOW and tell congress to vote NO on KIDS, KOSA, and other mass surveillance bills disguised as "internet safety". act.eff.org/action/tell-... #stopKOSA #StopKIDS

#SaveSpeech Theres an Age Verification bill in the Wisconsen senate that is aiming to force Adult websites to block VPNs The bill is SB-130 /AB-105! Folks in WI need to get out and yell at their state reps about this!

Alongside KOSA, the 'Stop CSAM act of 2025' is a big priority target we need people to yell at their representatives about!

1-866-952-4456 to tell Netflix that in no way do you want Elon fucking Musk determining what you watch. I just called, got through in about 15 seconds, and told them that I strongly support queer inclusion in their programming and that I will cancel my subscription if they cave.

Yo what the fuck was this about yesterday. Thankfully disappeared this morning and I can access my account without having done it but not a great sign it popped up at all. Great time to remind everyone to call your reps about the impending KOSA/KIDS bills.

It's not bluesky being assholes in this case, it's states and countries that legislated age verification and bluesky has to follow them or risk being shut down...

#savespeech #notodigitalID Update: Bluesky's burst of ID mandating seems due to the Texas App Store Accountability Act. Bluesky is deliberatly complying, unfortunately bsky.app/profile/safe... Continue to kick up a shit storm. Yell at reps to also vote NO on KOSA, SCREEN, KIDS Act, and so on

@repdelbene.bsky.social I'm very disappointed that you voted for the anti-LGBTQIA2S+ KIDS Act, SCREEN Act, and KOSA. It's not enough to say "Happy Pride"! For more about why these bills are so anti-LGBTQIA2S+, see msmagazine.com/2025/02/25/l...

Everyone in EU, UK or any US state with ID laws on the books [or even ones without them] should contact their representatives and mention this data breach specifically and [link the article if emailed] Show them the actual, tangible results of all this digshit online ID legislation

Are you in Mississippi? If so, that’s why you’re getting that bullshit.

Bluesky dot app lemme tell you youre not important enough for me to give you my entire ssn buddy

I got away this time by closing and reopening the app but it did force a logout. Yall are not getting my fucking ssn or credit card are you insane @bsky.app

Well i dont know how long this login session is gonna last but @bsky.app just asked me to do an age verification with personal information. If this happens again i will not attempt to log back in. If i dont post here again let bsky know that i prefer my privacy over this platform.

The government should ban AI features.

"They just want to turn it off." A fascinating story of the librarians who have started teaching classes showing people how to remove AI "features" from their phones and apps. www.bangordailynews.com/2026/07/02/m...

Proud of the Upperman family for doing what’s right. Blame UNC for the harm that is being done to students. www.wect.com/2026/07/06/u...

This, right here. This is why I’m boycotting at least 58 different companies and their child companies right now, including Walmart and Target. All money is not green, folks.

I need more people to decide that if entities want to walk the tightrope & try to appease bigots then they are saying that they don’t want your money.

Do they want racist money or everyone else’s? Do we want to support kowtowers? And for me, I didn’t start this beef I inherited it & it’s one-sided. But at this point basically anywhere I go if I don’t see Black people in dignified positions I’m not running you my Black money.

It’s not about beauty or talent or accuracy just like anti-DEI is not about qualifications. It’s about erasing Black people from public life & narrowing our avenues for existence. So the whining will never stop. And the only solution is to realize that all money ain’t green. Everyone has to choose.

Donald Trump does not get to dictate how you vote. We must uphold the Constitution and protect the existing election authorities at every level of government that have always facilitated free and fair elections.

The Trump regime is eliminating sex ed right now. We need your help to fight back. If you want to restore sex ed funding, go to buff.ly/GyQFCxY. Together we can save sex ed funding!

The former First Lady and SOS nails it here – and I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump has been actively involved with the GOP’s voter suppression campaign for its entire 45-year existence! She hardly ever misses with things she say.

Former Secretary of State, @hillaryclinton.bsky.social always serves a #CupOfJoe with a latte truth to power. Here, she breaks down how Trump’s only strategy for winning elections is by suppressing the vote. “They can’t win a fair fight.” 🎥 @democracydocket.com

A big thank you to Justin Humbles with @ironworkers_492 who spoke to our Civilian Civic Corps program (summer internship) about the role of labor in politics. This week, we learned about Fannie Lou Hamer and the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party!

That’s just your algorithm. Mine has things about politics.

Sherrilyn Ifill sat down with Rachel Maddow for a conversation about the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence at the “We the People” live event in Philly. Listen to her thoughts on Supreme Court reform and our chance to build a new democracy.

ABC tells the government to get out of its newsrooms

True. Robbery is another one that can’t be made right. And like rapists, it is absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to rehabilitate robbers. Yet, way too many liberals, Democrats and feminists make excuses for robbers.

You punch ONE kid, and you can't be a teacher ever again? That's what some of you sound like when it comes to abusers in positions of power. No one is punting the abuser into the volcano, it's just an average outcry that makes sense...abusers can't have positions of power because they're abusers.

To go into nudist spaces we should resist the temptation to over simplify safety by saying everyone is equal because those words do not guarantee safety for any traditionally marginalized people

The notion of equality should not assume safety In the US state of Mississippi a black teen went on a trip 4 of July with white friends and never returned all his friends say they don’t know what happened or where he went his body was found 2 days later - so when Black AA people ask is it safe 1/2

Four doctors, one broken system, zero fear. New Situation Womb: PP defunding's real cost, Iowa's HPV vaccine fight vs. a UK study showing zero cervical cancer deaths in vaccinated women, and the 14th Amendment after SCOTUS upheld birthright citizenship. Live now!

On this day in 1984, Prince scored his first Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 with “When Doves Cry.” It was the world's first glimpse of 'Purple Rain,' and nothing in music would be quite the same afterward.

So, it would be great if this worked. But I’m skeptical, because the problem isn’t that the court truly doesn’t UNDERSTAND that women are dying. They understand that perfectly well. That is the goal. They are making examples of those women.

We at Aiken Area Progressive never liked Platner. Big reason why.
