The more I hear about this, the less I like that Jared Polis's name is on the list. @kylec.bsky.social and/or @ryanhasaquestion.bsky.social, I'd love to see either of you (or your colleagues) help us gain more insight here.

Well shit. A whole lot of Jared Polis's fuckery over the last couple years makes a little more sense once you realize he's literally in Peter Thiel's group chat. Can we impeach him now? Please?

Definitely will be using “Crouching ADHD, Hidden ‘Tism” in my daily life now, thank you.

I have truly lost count of the amount of queer Giants fans who responded to my posts or articles telling me they're cancelling their season tickets or unsure if they can keep rooting for this team. So ... that's worth remembering if anyone says that the players chose "harmless" ways to protest

Please god let this close the portal to Hell the Cubs opened in 2016

these assholes didn't deserve this many words written about them

these are getting weird

Classic rape culture logic: Platner's accuser is a horrible person who worked for the Heritage Foundation and the Independent Women's Forum and therefore can't be believed, but it's no reflection on Platner the lefty savior that he dated her for two years.

I keep thinking how, whatever her faults, Collins is smart enough to wait until after the primary to unload her oppo research, and it's likely to be so very fucking bad.

Rallying around a shitty candidate just because he’s on your team is how we got here

I’ve been in the I don’t trust the dude with the Nazi tattoo since the beginning and people were like oooooh but the alternative was Susan Collins or Janet Mills dummy. No the alternative is the party cultivating talent and doing capacity building

What's happening with Platner is why you hop off the bus at "he has a nazi tattoo"

this is worth highlighting again this is domestic abuse from platner, this is not just 'guy who was kind of a dickbag towards women' completely beyond the pale

Who's decent and non-scummy to transfer a .org domain to these days? Namecheap's nearly 20 bucks now.

The rationalizations I am hearing from some folks about Graham Platner (you don’t have to like him but you have to beat Susan Collins) sound strikingly similar to the excuses I heard Republicans made for supporting Donald Trump after Access Hollywood.

Sticking it to the mods by (checks notes) turning off *all* content labeling. Two things can be true: the account-level "adult content" label is horrible policy, and you're about to voluntarily expose yourself to a lot of shit you didn't want to see.

Labeling entire accounts “adult” and hiding them, no matter what they are posting, will inevitably suppress vast amounts non-explicit political speech around sex work and censorship. The accounts most likely to speak out about over moderation are the ones first to experience it — the whistleblowers

Yes, I use dashes. Yes, I use the Oxford comma. Yes, I sometimes say: “Not… but.” Fuck anyone who thinks those things belong to AI. Who did you think they were stolen from in the first place?

In context this is a reply to some rando talking about Graham Platner and "second chances," but it really could apply to so many Democrats who don't do any better than Republicans.

Friendly reminder that I know what Stephen Miller looks like, and I know that the fact that he is Jewish is possibly not his first characteristic that pops to mind, but you REALLY cannot make vampire/blood stealing jokes about him. At all. Do not do it.

Perhaps instead of raging over Rikibeth's "suspension" (her posts were visible throughout), you could read her own words on the matter.

Say “Carter Hart” 3 times and some dude with a burner account will appear and ask you for “evidence”

Even the hockey gods are mad at Polis. This is real losing-the-mandate-of-heaven shit.

this is my fandom. god I wish nasa had a bluesky account so bad. Maybe we can strongarm them into it????

Free block: this scumbag rape apologist has been name-searching Carter Hart all night to reply to anyone who mentions him demanding evidence that Hart has ever done anything wrong. (For those unaware: Hart, the starting goaltender for the Vegas Golden Knights, is a rapist.)

To be clear, it was probably deserved, but I just got myself a 150-day ban from r/ColoradoAvalanche for getting mad at some of the absolutely bizarre shit that people say about players when things are going badly. I'm trying to treat that as a blessing; it probably is, but...

I desperately need to mute the phrase "during Covid." Or even worse, "back during Covid." It's still out there making people seriously ill, so I guess you mean back in those long ago days of .... RIGHT FUCKING NOW?

The best thing about sports is the fans. The worst thing about sports is also the fans. #GoAvsGo

Lionel Hutz for the digital age.

Convince me this is anything other than the skip-the-country fund for Trump and a bunch of his buddies.

You know you've screwed up good when CNN is reading you for filth.

This is one of those cases where I really wish that civil juries could issue an Everybody Sucks Here (ESH) verdict. An ESH verdict would require both parties to pay astronomical amounts into a fund that attempts to mitigate their externalities.

I’m calling on the General Assembly to vote to reconvene for special session to impeach or censure the Governor. Governor Polis commuted Tina Peters’ sentence after the legislative session, likely in an effort to avoid accountability for misconduct. The people of Colorado demand accountability.

Just a little PSA- Neil Gaiman has reactivated his Bluesky account. Because he deactivated before a lot of people could unfollow him, and/or because Bluesky doesn’t remove you from a person’s followers when you block them, a LOT of you are still publicly listed as following him. You should check.

Having some bullshit generator randomly changing the layout of the menu so you can't find shit is literally the opposite of what a fast food experience is supposed to be. And you're gonna do this at *Taco Bell*?? Where at least 1 passenger in any given car has a >40% likelihood of being high?? Nah.

Twice round in common meter, then it gets ragged. Feels beautifully intentional, but I'm not completely sure.

I vote we call dedicated #Rockies fans "Sickos" now. Affectionately, of course.

NEW: Melat Kiros, progressive challenger to Rep Diana DeGette (D-CO), calls for Colorado legislature to consider impeaching Gov Jared Polis (D) for his clemency of Tina Peters

this wapo push alert is why what Polis is doing is so incredibly damaging above and beyond, you know, granting clemency to a criminal who tried to overturn an election Polis - an unpopular term limited tech bro with his brain cooked by group chats - taints the entire party with his bullshit

Virginia should just proceed with the map anyway tbqh 🤷🏾‍♀️ reinstate the map their damn selves

As a queer who grew up in the 90s, when it was completely normal to call everything you didn't like "gay," I'm begging y'all to push back on the use of homosexuality as an insult, even when it's leveled at people you hate. No, it's not more fitting because they're homophobic bigots. It's never cute.

They went in so hard for degendering her that they cut the Governor's quote to avoid the pronouns. Fucking disgusting behavior from her local paper. I would be extremely interested in finding out if that comes from editorial pressure or if it was the reporter's call.

Jared Polis is a coward who capitulates to MAGA bullies. He is unfit to lead in this moment, is a disgrace to Colorado and the country, and should resign. www.npr.org/2026/05/15/n...

You mean the fact it was a malicious misinterpretation in the first place wasn't enough? This is an extra fucked-up thing to say just a day after someone LEAPT to pull out the chili discourse screenshot to bully someone over another malicious misinterpretation.

This feels especially relevant in the context of stories like Gallup talking about pivoting to "synthetic" results.

Just walking around with a years-old stranger’s post in your phone that you can trot out to bully them every time their name crosses your timeline? What the fuck is wrong with you people? Fucking bullies every one of you.

FYI: That image being shared around, the one where the government is trying to define trans people as terrorists? It's been edited. The stuff is all in there, yes, but two paragraphs have been put together to make it look as scary as possible. THIS IS EXTREMELY IRRESPONSIBLE, DO NOT FUCKING DO THIS
