Rob Reiner was the consummate storyteller. Over and over, he revealed us to ourselves: what it is to be young and have friends, to fall in love, to feel misery and vengeance, to feel alive. And the laughs. So many laughs. The loss of Rob Reiner is... inconceivable.

😞

Trump is fighting against providing an ASL interpreter at White House press briefings ICE detained & injured a deaf man because they claimed his “sign language gestures” were resisting arrest They’re either not trained to recognize sign language, or they don’t care Disgusting ableism on display

Fuck 2025

The day started with news of over a dozen Jews murdered and dozens more wounded in Australia and ended with news of Rob Reiner & his wife being stabbed to death in Los Angeles. Fuck 2025.

13 years ago today.

Mother of Karoline Leavitt’s Nephew speaks out after ICE arrest: I think what I would have to say to Karoline is just because you went to a catholic school doesn't make you a good catholic.

Happy 100th birthday to Dick Van Dyke!

I would like to be adopted, please 🥹

Date nights are good things. #Broadmoor

Buttigieg on Indiana: "The big part of how Trumpism works is to make you feel totally disempowered. To make him feel inevitable. And yet the clear takeaway from this is he is not unstoppable and you are not without power."

Ready for a few weeks of fermentation. #DIY #Sauerkraut

Anyone can become disabled. Anyone can become chronically ill. Anyone can become homeless. These are not moral failings. They can happen in an instant, often when you least expect it. It just takes one accident or illness to change your life forever.

What’s on your fridge? #drwho #tardis

Extorting the ICC is peak stupid.

Christmas tree day! #PikesPeakForest #ChristmasTree

1/4 🧵 We’ve posted a lot lately about CDC denying reasonable accommodations to disabled employees -- e.g., telling a paraplegic person who normally teleworks to report to the office immediately or use leave. Yes, that’s really happening. Let’s talk a bit about why everyone should care.

6 years today the first COVID case was identified in a man in Wuhan marking the beginning of a global pandemic that changed the world. We are way less prepared today to face another pandemic than we were back then. This fact makes me sad.

It’s never ok to use the R slur. It’s never ok to discriminate against and berate disabled people. It’s not an acceptable term to describe anyone, for any reason. He’s emboldening his base. They’re going to use it more often. Please speak out. Help protect disabled lives.

It is essential to remember that living with a disability or chronic disease is a demanding, full-time responsibility. Do not permit others to diminish your self-esteem. Understand that you are not alone in this experience💙

"True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.” —FDR, 1944

I got Covid 4 years ago and I have it now. It’s sucks just as bad now as it did then.

19 year old freshman just wants to go home for Thanksgiving to see her family, she gets deported to Honduras. Former President of Honduras who’s serving 45 years in prison for drug trafficking? He gets a full presidential pardon. Both are Honduran. Only one is a criminal.

Sociopaths gonna sociopath until we stop them from sociopathing.

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

He better not.

Babe whatever you do, don’t lose your sweet whimsy but girl please do not lose your political rage.

"In a way it's not surprising to see [Epstein] kind of mobbed up with everybody," @michaeldweiss.bsky.social tells @timmiller.bsky.social. "I mean those emails read like, you know, the, the, the text equivalent of the Star Wars cantina scene, you know, a hive, a wretched hive of scum and villainy."

Crockett on MTG resigning: "Honestly, I was like, you got to be kidding. You're on the other side of the president for one week and you can't take the heat? Imagine what it is to sit in my shoes."

The economy in 2025...

The dismantling of public health systems is also a reorganizing of the public health economy to Christian grift. It’s the parallel track of dismantling all public social services especially education

Thank you

Okay @bsky.app where are the top stories listed? I’d like them back where they belong. Thanks for your help.

The thing is journalists are not subordinate to the government and therefore cannot be insubordinate in questioning the government

Watching the Epstein survivor admit that she voted for Trump really fucked with my head. The brainwashing against the left that apparently people endure from birth, must be way deeper than I ever imagined. A victim voting for a rapist, who has also been accused by 26 other women? Over a woman? WTAF?

As a vision impaired person, I cannot access my local news page due to this (illustratedon post below - a page covered by pop ups and fast moving ads that obscure text and cannot be closed unless you chase the X). If I do get past the pop ups, the page doesn’t have dynamic text or high contrast

The right thinks the left will fight to protect Bill Clinton. The actual left thinks the middle will fight to protect Bill Clinton. But I want to believe — tonight as winter creeps closer, and even the tiniest glimmer of hope is impossibly precious — that nobody would protect Bill Clinton.

Growing up in a time when “selling out” was the most shameful thing you could do and then being forced to live through the 2020s feels like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

#UPS #RIP 💔

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful. Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened. This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

No 💩

Bernie Sanders: "What this Senate is about to do is make a horrific situation even worse. So let's be clear what this vote is about. If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are gonna see at least a doubling in their premiums in the ACA."

omg

This moment says everything about why Zohran Mamdani won. A journalist in a wheelchair asked about accessibility and Mamdani didn’t talk down to him, didn’t deflect, didn’t politicize it. He listened. He’s the kind of leader who respects everyone, every faith, every class, every flag.

When we lived in Ohio, we were good friends with the captain of flight #2976 ❤️‍🩹 Our kids used to play together. Rich was a top tier human being. Hearts are broken everywhere he’s been. RIP all.

JFC!!!! My worst nightmare. That poor man!!!
