one of the most upsetting things about all the epstein files (along with all the men not rich enough to be in the epstein files who fixate on teens) is how many of them are parents

A dispatch from Surprise AZ where residents gathered to protest plans for a warehouse concentration camp in their community by @azrww.bsky.social “Despite this evidence of authoritarian power, it is possible for even the most local form of government to take a stand in the name of the people.”

this is how I was hoping to spend my life; constantly on edge, mistrusting every messenger, tensely braced and skeptical to guard myself from ever guilelessly being moved by, or god forbid sharing, AI

started thinking about this for no good reason and this, with @mauraquint.bsky.social @mobute.bsky.social @davidjroth.bsky.social for @itschristmastown.bsky.social has to be the best cold open i've ever been a part of

Lower the retirement age from 67 to however old you are when Gmail first tells you your account storage is full.

The Washington Post's layoffs are simple, Jeff Bezos just searched each journalist's name in the Epstein files and if they weren't in it, they were fired.

This is what I’m talking about when I say he’s the “if he wanted to he would” mayor

Don’t care about the Grammys; waiting to hear who won FIFA’s best new artist award

Regardless of their level of involvement, one thing that’s clear is there’s not one person named in the Epstein files who believed those girls were people.

it’s not insomnia, I’m just dedicated to giving a little forehead kiss good morning to every time zone

They said "free speech" and "academic freedom" but never believed in either and now in texas you need a permission slip to mention race in class and they're fine with it. Might not have worked if people with large platforms weren't furious about marginal increases of black people in their offices

So what I’m gathering is a pedophilic billionaire successfully worked to destigmatize race science among the academic, political, and business elite partly by sex trafficking girls. Is that the shape of it so far?

The thing about Catherine O’Hara is she is so hilarious and talented that I forgot she was mortal

You don't have to see the movie in order to enjoy the Melania game that comes preloaded in all Apple devices, but knowing the lore will help you better understand the mandatory in-app purchases for foreign weapons and crypto.

I wasn't planning to watch the Melania movie but now that it auto plays on my phone's lock screen, and when I pause my smart tv, and on the fridge display, and on my car's digital screen when I brake, and on the baby monitors, and is whispered through my white noise app, I'm starting to get into it.

These are all Black people. The regime is betting that you wont care Jamael & Trahern the way you care about Alex & Renée

me, every morning: good thing I spent yesterday steeping myself in horrors so that nothing new will be able to penetrate my fear or surprise today! *goes online* GODDAMNIT

And Lemon wasn’t even opposing them. They want it to be illegal to REPORT on opposition to them.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Journalist Don Lemon is arrested after protest that disrupted a service at a Minnesota church.

The Trump regime has just arrested a Black journalist.

8 Republicans joined the Senate Dems to block the Motion to Proceed which keeps this bill from moving forward as a single package. The goal now is to get Republicans to agree to split this package into separate bills so that some funding can be passed but the DHS package can be altered.

Cool we went from the psycho villain who gets so angry at a joke he strangles someone to death to the villain who says “I really do hate seeing violence” before telling his thugs “kill them all” and walking out of the kindergarten.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

*rolling up my sleeves* allllllright, time to log onto the pedantry box and see who isn't speaking perfectly to my liking. gotta make people's days just a little bit worse. quotas!

This is unconscionable. Evil. But it happened in May 2023, when Biden was president. So no, we don’t “reform immigration detention,” we destroy ICE, CBP, and DHS. We can’t reform this soul sickness.

Trusted friends in Minneapolis tell me that this fund is supporting many people but does not have enough money. If you can give, please do: chuffed.org/project/1671...

I love their anger and confusion. I love that they've never once in their whole worthless lives felt care for or from another person. I love that they're hollow and worthless and will never know joy.

about 15 years away from constantly being like that weird girl in high school who made all her own clothes because you insist on still feeling your own feelings instead of letting chat gpt tell you what emotion you're having

ever have a moment when nothing particularly special happens but you suddenly get hit with the world you've created and your own incredible capacity for love and joy and feel like the luckiest person in the world

"DHS killing spree"

if you went through the words in this one by one, Trump would not be able to pronounce, let alone define, 70%

If you are neutral milk hotel in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor milk hotel.

we’re right about ai too

Good morning friends! Some things to remember when you call your senators today: 1. Renee Good's killer is still at large and has not faced justice 2. Alex Pretti's murderers are still at large, unnamed and still working on our dime. 3. 35 people died in ICE custody last year. 35 shattered families

I don't know how to explain how much I love this terrible Hallmark tv show about time travel beyond saying, I have drunkenly gushed about it so much, I have convinced people at the bar to start watching it too. Thank you @mobute.bsky.social for making me do this -- join our terrible watch party!

No! No!!

Given Greg Bovino's dismissal, the CBS team will need to locate another administration official for Weiss to carry in her pocket

Me when @mauraquint.bsky.social discusses watching shows alone in one’s bedroom because the kids have taken over every other square foot of room in the house (Mine are 10 and 7 and this has already happened)

brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

it's here btw www.youtube.com/live/zqka9fU...

True. Also there were two mass anti-ICE trainings tonight, multiple other mass anti-ICE trainings this week. We can acknowledge that the admin is flailing and celebrate that while we organize even harder. It's important to know that we CAN win, we ARE winning. We haven't won yet -- but we will.

they have an army of brain-dead furious murder flunkies and they're being driven out by people known for being pleasantly passive aggressive and innovating tater tot recipes we'll fight them everywhere, they will never win thank you, minnesota

Greg Bovino Ordered To Leave Minnesota; Will Return to Elaborate Burrow Beneath Fort Totten Solid Waste Disposal Transfer Station

Bonus Time! Jeb and @mauraquint.bsky.social decided to find out what happens when two pals finally watch a show where nosediving into a Canadian backyard pond hurls you backward through intergenerational women's trauma AND the space time-continuum.

I'm a resident of the Twin Cities. A small team and I spent 3 days sculpting this for a competition/festival in extremely cold temperatures. We were disqualified for political messaging and one of the organizers defaced it. I have no regrets and I have never been more proud to be Minnesotan. (cont)

organized, unseen, unpaid labor acting rapidly and effectively? yeah that'd be women

Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS. Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies. AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS. Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

One of the stars of One Battle After Another? When it's an Oscar frontrunner??
