OK, but what's the downside?

Today was a good day for me but also a day in which I kept on making lots of pesky errors, like calling people by mistake, misreading and miswriting things. Need to give my brain a little rest

A lazy #caturday

Hello from somewhere on the far side of the moon

superb content

"Obstetrics care could be hit especially hard. It’s one of the most expensive categories of service provided by hospitals. And Medicaid funds nearly 40 percent of all births in the U.S." wamu.org/story/26/04/...

This has kept happening since it happened to Linda Tirado, and it happened before that - police know they aren't supposed to aim them at people's heads and are doing it anyway despite that. End qualified immunity.

“11 sperm whales huddled together at the surface, strangely still and taking occasional shallow dives. After about an hour, the animals seemed to start thrashing, and a plume of blood reddened the water. The researchers feared trouble, maybe a shark attack. But it was something else.” WHALE DOULAS!

the amount of good ms. rachel puts out into the world is immeasurable. she is so much closer to something divine than many men who claim to be holy.

Children’s television star Ms. Rachel is fighting to close the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in South Texas, where ICE has detained hundreds of children and their families. “I am political. It’s political to believe that children are worthy of love and care, and that every child is equal.”

this is a bad one. seems very much like today’s guy was straight up murdered & ICE called it a suicide. no criminal record, just got his work permit, getting his SSN, and then it sounds like they grabbed him at a Kavanaugh stop. even the nurses thought the suicide story ICE gave them was suspicious

Duffy needs to resign

The question that broke America fundamentally was ‘do all people deserve basic rights?’ This question was too hard for us. Too hard for our leadership. It still is. So now all of our rights are in jeopardy.

The Supreme Court is hearing a case that could disenfranchise voters in up to 30 states that permit mail-in ballots cast by Election Day to be counted if they're received within the states’ reasonable grace periods. We filed a brief urging the court to protect our right to have our votes counted.

Media literacy note: This woman isn’t being prosecuted “under Georgia’s abortion ban,” as some outlets claim. If that were the case, she’d be facing charges of “criminal abortion”—not murder. Any publication that prints that isn't a reliable source. More: www.autonomynews.co/montana-20-y...

hello! has your community successfully fought against a new Flock contract, or tried (successfully or not) to get one cancelled? I want to hear about it for a piece I’m writing!

The violence is in the incoherence. The violence is in the conviction. The violence is in the lack of care.

To everyone who doesn't want to see the face of the US president, we have a labeler now! bsky.app/profile/face...

There’s petty and then there’s ✨opera petty✨ 😂

Let’s stop softening the language. The pregnant detainees in the Texas ICE camp are children. They are not “young women.” They are minors. If pregnancies occurred while they were detained, every ICE officer must be investigated for child sexual assault. These children must be freed.

This cruelty is being done in our name. Shame on this administration. Shame. 13,000 third country deportees so far. Many were ordered deported decades or even generations earlier, but no admin previously would have considered something as inhumane as this as a means of carrying out a removal.

Arrr, matey! Ye best have a fair-weather #Caturday, or there'll be the devil to pay!

Happy #Caturday from the @gettymuseum.bsky.social’s recent acquisition they’re clearly trying to turn into their Met hippo mascot given the merch already in the gift shop. But this cat is seriously cute. 18th c Chinese porcelain, French gilt bronze seat

If you are not Jewish and you are telling Jewish people what is and isn’t antisemitic you need to take a time out. I don’t care if it ‘doesn’t look antisemitic’ to you.

Rodney Taylor, the husband, father, and double-amputee who has been held by U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement in Stewart Detention Center since January 2025, may be deported any day now, according to his wife, Mildred Danis-Taylor. atlanta.capitalbnews.org/rodney-taylo...

This is obviously the story of the night. I was shocked by how little attention this race got comparatively. Stratton called for abolishing ICE, a $25 minimum wage, and Medicare for All while her opponent was funded by AIPAC and ICE contractors. And she's going to be a Senator!

Sorry what? They won’t deport US citizens is a concession? What the actual F

I am one of 160 signatories on this letter to the American Red Cross and the International Red Cross calling for immediate humanitarian visits to ICE internment facilities in Texas.

They’re telling me a great empire will be destroyed if I attack Persia. Even the oracles who don’t like me very much, very nasty, they all said to me, “Sir, it’s one of the great empires, and it’ll be destroyed. And all because you attacked Persia.” That’s what they’re telling me.

Officials say an Afghan immigrant whose family said had worked with U.S. forces in his home country died at a Texas hospital after having been detained by immigration authorities.

This is what ICE has done to journalist Estefany Rodriguez.

Wolfie: “ #Caturday is whenever I say it is.”

They made them take down the videos because they would cause "reputational damage" to people like this young man, Nathan Cavanuagh, so definitely don't post this all over the internet with the name Nathan Cavanaugh attached, or this guy might suffer reputational damage. This guy, Nathan Cavanaugh.

A Minneapolis woman who opposed ICE woke up to a drone outside her second floor bedroom window. A man delivering groceries to a suburban distro house for mutual aid recorded a drone hovering above the house. Whose drones and why? (1) www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Lord, just look at all this softness under the wee waning moon. And wonder that we do anything with our lives but love & marvel.
