@restingdinoface.bsky.social Guess what? My daughter is using one of your articles to do research on whale evolution!!! I was stoked when she showed me her bibliography.

Are you not entertained!!!?? It be nice if we wouldn’t follow all the steps of Rome’s downfall like a playbook.

The only reason I have left to watch anything CBS or Paramount related is because of @thedailyshow.com and Star Trek. Adding Josh to the rotation will only make the show even better! He is fantastic and beyond funny.

She was one of my favorite characters in Orange is the New Black (second only to Natasha!) and she never ceases to impress me.

Just got back from seeing The Life of Chuck. After having read and loved @stephenking.bsky.social short story, the movie brought it to life perfectly. Every character was just as I imagined and Tom Hiddleston was superb. Act 2 brought me joy!I also wish @markhamillofficial.bsky.social was my Zeyde!!

One of my favorite actors!

Wichita represented today at the #NoKingsRally. It was peaceful, it was strong, it was wonderful. The crowd went on for over 5 blocks on all sides, including side streets. #Resist #Impeach

Well said @jimmykimmel.com

I’ll be watching. I’d recommend you do, too. A shame it won’t be able to be used in schools due to language, but since most students actually understand climate change is happening, I hope they can trick their parents into watching a new “comedy” at home.

One of my favorite childhood stories is that my mom and I loved Dolly so much that she let me watch a very risqué musical before I was even old enough to know what sex was. I was 6yo. The result of this being I thought it was called The Best Little WAREHOUSE in Texas for about 5 years. #WWDD /1

Every state needs to do this to protect our kids!

May Day Protest in Topeka, KS. Good size crowd for a work day! Elbows up! #50501-Kansas

On our way to the Topeka, KS May Day protest! I’ll post pictures this afternoon! #50501-Kansas

Speaker list & schedule for tomorrow! May 1st Topeka Capitol Noon

Even on a cold and dreary day, KS showed up to downtown Wichita. It started to downpour right after I took this and still we all stayed. Elbows up!

2,000 people in St. Louis showed up in the rain to tell President Musk and his punk ass kids to take their Hands Off our country 💙🇺🇸 Tell Republicans to grow a spine and stand up for America. #moleg #mo02

#handsoff Topeka KS

Kansans showed up today, too! This was Wichita, not even our capitol group! Hoping they were even bigger, but wasn’t up for a 3 hour drive today. #handsoff #handsoffeducation #indivisible

If our own leaders won’t stand up for us, how do we maintain hope? I’ve never felt more helpless than I do right now in my own country.

Preach, @georgetakei.bsky.social !

The fact that so many people are blinded by our government using trans people as fodder for hate is right out of Germany’s playbook. Why can’t people see that? Target a group that “scares” people & make them pariahs. Sound familiar? The fact that it isn’t about religion but sex does NOT make it ok.

Having a hard time not letting all the awfulness get me down. I was raised to believe that you have to tell the truth, good will triumph over evil, and to love one another. What saddens me the most is that 50% of the population is so brainwashed now, they believe all the garbage they are being fed.

Our little rally in Topeka, KS, for Stand Up for Science was never going to make the headlines like the DC one, but many Kansans still showed up! I’m glad I took my daughter to see that even little ripples can cause larger waves. We will not go quietly into the night. #standupforscience

I got a text asking me to sign with house democrats to impeach Trump and for a fraction of a second, I had hoped it had actually happened. Rushed here and to AP News hoping to see the headline, to have my hopes dashed. Damn you, text bot.

I didn’t know I could despise JD Vance more than I already did. I’m ashamed at what I just watched. How do Americans distance themselves from our “leaders” They are destroying everything we stand for and who is going to come to our aid when we need it? They want us completely isolated from allies.

WaPo is 147 years old. It's basically an American institution. It's now been destroyed by a billionaire. The Constitution is 236 years old It's now being trampled on by a billionaire. The problem with unfettered capitalism is that it becomes authoritarian oligarchy.

Get the word out on these special elections We win these three and we take the house No more trifecta No more BS from Trump We need people in these districts to step up and fight for it Contact your friends and neighbors and raise hell gayforcongress.com joshweil.us blakegendebienforcongress.com

I am so disappointed in NASEM. Are there no heroes left?

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

REPOST if you stand with AOC!

Today marks exactly 4 weeks - 28 days - since Inauguration. For those who lived through it, this has felt much like watching the 2nd plane hit the tower - over and over and over. The pattern is clear. This is an attack on our liberty. #Resist

I’ve been trying to look at the news sparingly but every time I do, this moment comes to mind.

A vigorous statement from the Clergy Letter Project on the power and importance of respecting human dignity.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Hey, journalists: stop asking Trump supporters if they support an EO without explaining what that actually means. Instead of asking “Do you support cutting the Department of Education?” ask them if they’re in favor of the IMPACTS of cutting it. Or at least ask them if they know what the impacts are.

If this is at all news to you, start here and learn something.

NEW: US government websites are disappearing in real time, including sites for the US Agency for International Development, foreign assistance, neglected diseases, and children in adversity. We analyzed more than 1000 .gov websites to track what's been taken down—and what's next. wrd.cm/4aFMs5A

Well, I managed a 24 hour media blackout (inspired by @markhamillofficial.bsky.social). But, I just caught up on the events of yesterday via The Daily Show and BlueSky. Now, I’m wondering if I should have made it a four-year blackout. Sigh. I know it is important to stay informed, but damn.

I’ve just finished reading my 4th book in January. My 25 in 25 is well on its way. If the world keeps falling apart and I spend even less time on social media than I am now, I’ll be finished by June!

I’ve been on BlueSky for just under a week and can honestly say I’ve found my people. Facebook deteriorated so slowly in the beginning you could ignore it, but not after a week of scrolling here. I’ve found my new time-waster. LOL.
