FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history. Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

This was created by the Public Broadcastic Act of 1967 and needs congressional approval to be disolved. What they're doing is illegal. Half of Congress is fine with this and the other half is too weak and cowardly to do or say anything.

@bluegravez.bsky.social Has been a fantastic friend over the years, and I wish I had the time to doodle em more.

I absolutely adore having Ellium grow alongside @theredgoon.bsky.social and havin fun while doing it. >:3

PBS is still alive. It may be down, but it’s not out. To keep it from ever being out, donate to your local station if you can. You’ll be able to do so here: pbs.org/donate.

Our phones are now suspended, so we can't doordash to make more money. We have laundry to do and don't have funds for a laundromat. But we have rent and food for now QwQ

The fire was already burning on Twitter, but this caused it to spread to Bluesky, and a lot of ostensibly left-wing people started pouring gasoline on the fire. You're allowed to think furries are weird, and you don't have to like us. But you also don't have to attack us either.

An update on FurryTel.

If a bat touches you and you're not controlling it like this with thick gloves and knowing what you're doing You need to get a rabies vaccination and I'm deadly serious. If a bat *touches* you.

Man I wanna cuddle some big fellas. Some things I’ve done for @batspid2.bsky.social , @facelesskiwami.bsky.social , and @mrspiffy.bsky.social !

Old commission for Shikanaconda! #furry

The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

Porn and erotica are important and societally valuable forms of speech, and the defense of them, in the face of state and church attempts at repression, is a necessary political act.

Just assume that everything associated with the US government’s position is a lie. Make complete mistrust a habit.

THREAD: Viral misinformation on US capture of Nicolas Maduro - 4 January This video, shared by Alex Jones and others, falsely claims to show millions of Venezuelans in Caracas celebrating Maduro's capture. In fact, it shows anti-Maduro protests in July 2024 over a highly disputed election.

Literally a publication for eight-year olds 40 years ago

This video, viewed millions of times on TikTok, Facebook and X, claims to show Venezuelans taking to the street to thank the US for detaining Maduro. But the video is a combination of four AI-generated clips and was first posted on TikTok by a user who frequently shares AI videos. It's not real.

Jordan can def show ya a goooood time~ #furry

More early Ellium~

My first ever Ellium sketches from 2017! Man, this brings me back…

Unconstitutional force. Civilians dead. Congress bypassed. Oil interests front and center. We’ve seen this movie before and it ends in blood. But we don’t have to do it again.

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

Doing a lil doodling with Kyle~

My statement on President Trump’s actions in Venezuela.

Nows a GREAT time to call state reps! Be angry! Blow up their lines! OVERWHELM THESE ASSHOLES! If you download the app “5 Calls” he makes it easy for you to get in touch with your state representatives and even gives you a script to read off of for relevant issues. Fight Back!!!

I’m at Times Square, where an emergency “No War On Venezuela” protest just took to the street. Easily a thousand people here in real-feel 20°F weather. “No more coups, no more wars, Venezuela’s not yours!” “No boots on the ground no bombs in the air, U.S. out of everywhere!”

Trump’s illegal attack on Venezuela is reckless, dangerous and driven by fossil fuel power politics. This is not about democracy. It’s about oil, power and control. It puts ordinary Venezuelans at risk and drags the world closer to another resource war. 1/3

So many people over decades have been called conspiracy theorists for suggesting that U.S. intervention is driven by capitalist interests, and the interests of the oil industry in particular. Now the president just says it outright in press conferences and interviews.

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month. It’s about oil and regime change. And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

My partner spent over a decade developing a new way to interpret image data from digital scans and renders. This tech had multiple uses, INCLUDING the potential to detect cancer earlier. We spoke with several big companies. Everyone liked it but none of them wanted to fund its completion.

building the case to the rest of the world isn’t to explain Trump’s actions are wrong—that’s clear. It’s to demonstrate elite dissent & rejection of Trump’s actions, to reassert Congress’s role in authorizing force, & to create the kind of public noisiness about policy that characterizes democracies

I'm seeing a lot of posts to call your reps but little on actually how. 5calls.org is a great site where you can put in your zip code and get numbers for your house representative and two senators. You also can get a script if you're like me and stumble over your thoughts.

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels. Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on. And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking. Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy. It's a power grab.

Cancel the LA Olympics, scrap the World Cup, the United States cannot be a trusted part of the international community so long as the White House operates this violently and with impunity.

We're living in a crazy world where: -> A President dodges all damning evidence by saying 'nuh-uh' -> Twitter generates CSAM but isn't instantly shut down and the media isn't even talking about it -> The USA and Russia can just invade any country they want -> Calling out a genocide is anti-semitic

friendly reminder to not post anything that will get feds knocking on your door and putting you on no-fly lists, no matter how upset you are about injustices. it doesn't matter that you're not serious and it doesn't matter if you append "in Minecraft". be careful with what you say, here or anywhere

Time to dust this one off again

People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

And it’s illegal, both internationally and unconstitutional domestically! Having a rules based order is an affirmative good, this destroys it. Now any head of state can just get renditioned if a big enough country doesn’t like them? Bad equilibrium folks, in which bad things will happen

Remember how appalled we all were in 2022 when Russia completely unprovoked attacked Ukraine? That is what we’re doing tonight with Venezuela. We are the bad guys here. Everyone who supports this is supporting unprovoked murder. Fuck every last one of them

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation. I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.
