Knitters unite! For some fiber artists, the craft is inherently political. “Creating in a time of destruction and chaos, that is resistance in and of itself.”

The year I took the AP US History exam, there was a multiple choice question about Michael “Meathead” Stivic. This past weekend was an awful weekend for violence. 😢

Cookie dough #1 made and chilling in the fridge. It’s an Oreo icebox cookie because I have no patience for scooping while baking. Honestly, I’m a dump and be done baker (brownies, sheet cakes, pies), so cookies feel like a ton of work to me.

Instead of doomscrolling when I should be trying to fall asleep, I have been doombinge-ing season 3 of The Diplomat on Netflix. I’m wrecked in the morning, but what a fantastic show! #thediplomat

Continuing Raskin’s tent analogy means the Democrats are running a circus, right?

None can be primaried in the next cycle, Shaheen & Durbin retiring. Hassan, Masto, Fetterman up for reelection in 2028. Rosen, Kaine, King up for reelection in 2030.

The caucus meeting was just to orchestrate who would fall on the sword but not be up for a vote in 2026.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

All these poll stories about Mamdani and Cuomo sure are giving Clinton vs Trump 2016 vibes. I hope NYCers go out and vote. Ignore the poll numbers and go vote, vote, vote!

Dodgers pitching coach *Mark Prior* being forced to watch a guy who threw a complete game two days ago pitch in relief is a whole-ass short story of a narrative

Everyone watching this game right now. #worldseries #dodgers #bluejays

Today is Larry Itliong Day in CA, honoring the Filipino American labor leader whose union members began the Delano Grape Strike on 9/8/65. They asked Cesar Chavez’s National Farm Workers Association to join their picket lines. The rest is history. More: www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Another list! Cross reference with my last post to block ‘em all.

It literally took me less than 2 minutes to go through the list below and block all the accounts.

Don't engage. Just block. They want to push their rage bait on here. Don't give them the satisfaction. bsky.app/profile/did:...

I love the inflatable costume resistance. I’m also curious how long before they are targeted with tariffs.

I referenced this essay so many times over the past week. And I didn't even have to be like, "Menopause, right?" Thank you for this, @andizeisler.bsky.social ! www.salon.com/2025/09/22/g...

So exhausting..

Roughly 100 #teachers w/ #ClearTheList & #DonorsChoose that they need fulfilled for their #classroom & #students #Educators need our support & can't do it alone Teachers should NEVER have to buy their own supplies 50% of 100 is better than 100% of nothing #EduSky #TeacherSky go.bsky.app/CjvUSVj

Tylenol/autism stuff is bad for many reasons, but it will be used to push the idea that pregnant people shouldn't have pain relief. Women's pain is already dismissed.

It's a new school year and I'm at a new school library- a brand new, fabulous school library! And there are a few things we need to start the school year off right. If you'd like to share or buy a supply for some awesome middle schoolers, that would be super great! #clearthelist #tlsky

Thank you for the recent donations to my husband’s brand new science classroom! He’s received beakers, tuning forks, meter sticks, and test tubes. It’s a fantastic start to building a science wonderland for kids to learn and explore. #clearthelist #teachersky #edusky

About 100 #teachers who need support with getting #classroom supplies Even if you don't have the funds to help, please repost this at the very least They're doing all that they can for our children (their #students), and they can't do it alone #EduSky #TeacherSky #schools go.bsky.app/CjvUSVj

The story of ink… and why it matters in the classroom 🧵

@ctrl4ltdel3te.bsky.social My husband got your donation yesterday. Thank you so much!! #clearthelist

I have a distinct memory of my high school honors chemistry teacher telling the class that many of the schools 3-beam scales came from a police auction. An illegal drug outfit had been raided. The implication? Our scales were used to measure cocaine at some point.

Rich people aren't where money comes from. They are where money goes. That's why economies that prioritise rich people's interests all stagnate and the promised growth never materialises.

#clearthelist Help a new science teacher? “Bare bones” is putting the current state of supplies nicely.

Second sleepless night in a row with a Covid+ baby. This cannot be good for my own Covid recovery. This quarantine life sucks. Tomorrow will be a day of scraping the barrel for patience—for him (as much as babies can) and for me. Wish us luck.

Where are you @padilla.senate.gov & @schiff.senate.gov??? Get on the floor and help @booker.senate.gov/ @corybooker.com. This is good trouble, and we want more of it.

@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov Seriously, the opportunities abound.

@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov I’m going to need you both to be shouting this from the rooftops over and over and over again.

@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov If Schumer votes for cloture and you do not immediately call for his resignation for betraying the ideals of the Democratic Party, I will not ever vote for either of you again, and will use every avenue in my power to make sure you are not re-elected.

@schumer.senate.gov If you vote for cloture you are a stain on this country’s history that will never go away. You are willingly passing power to a tyrant in waiting, and you are a disgrace to every oath of office any senator has ever sworn. Your legacy will be one of cowardice and contempt.
