Also fucking fuck autocorrect that uncorrects my spelling what is wrong with tech companies. When there are no library jobs left my new job will be helping unseat every politician who let nationwide abortion ban legislation through with this supposed deal. Oh. My. God.

I gotta get off the internet beverage this makes me too enraged to function. How. Could. The Dems. Allow. This.

If you stare at seagulls, they're less likely to steal your food. That's kind of like how calling out corporations that treat workers unfairly can help turn things around for the workers, right? Anyway, here's a seagull and don't buy Starbucks during today's strike

Holy smokes.

Perfect and innocent.

It made the papers.

So... when we fight we win? This is a mood booster.

Srsly @whitehouse.senate.gov I just want to die of something other than not enough insurance. The expectations I have for my representatives is in the absolute basement. And yet evidently I will need to start digging a sublevel in order to lower the bar.

Gail understands being hungry and on your own - she would pay for SNAP and donate to every airport food drive to support TSA employees who are working without pay.

oh sorry too busy worrying about losing insurance and not earning enough money to pay for ACA coverage to listen to mealy mouthed lectures from people who fo not, in fact, get it i don't think you have the slightest idea how catastrophic things will be for voters who just want reps to do SOMETHING

I felt terrible about wanting my reps to hold the line because ACA was that SNAP recipients were in dire straits. I'm glad MN had/has a plan for helping take care of the most vulnerable. Of course, Americans who depend on the ACA are now extra vulnerable. One hurdle at a time, I guess.

Good. This is good.

It's that time of year again. When we all pause and take a moment to appreciate that even The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald has a couple of lines in it that fall comically flat.

Without the ACA I would have been in BIG TROUBLR for several years. Allowing affordable health care to die in America for people who really, really need it is terrible.

Sundays, man.

John Fetterman, Angus King, Maggie Hassan, Dick Durbin, Jon Ossoff, Jeanne Shaheen, Kirsten Gillibrand, Catherine Cortez Masto, Mark Warner, Cory Booker, and of course Chuck Schumer. Maybe others not top of mind. Not all responsible will publicly vote for the cave - that's not how this works.

The local offices for all my reps had working voicemail, BTW. If the DC office box for your senator is full, try their local office nearest you.

I just used the @5calls.org app to call my reps and encourage them not to cave and hand the GOP a blank check in exchange for ending the govt. shut down. They give you a script and phone numbers for local offices. It's easy to do and worthwhile!

every sunday, from pulpits in megachurches across america, white evangelicals cry out about some imaginary persecution of christianity. but i can’t stop thinking about the pile of rosaries collected by a janitor at a border crossing or the priest turned away at the gates of the detention camp.

I just did this and you should too

Ugh.

I feel like @ouinne.bsky.social might appreciate this, especially starting around minute 2.20. youtube.com/shorts/qIkpz...

Hey @sasshole.bsky.social Suze says we can hug the pregnancy pillow.

Dads who go to libraries then skating practice with your elementary schoolers but don't yell at coaches, have you considered running for school board?

Being an American is so weird. You have 50+ neighbors whose family fights you can see over your own fence. OTOH NKP. OTOH you have to care, not in a hot gossip way, but in a their mess might become my mess way (abortion travel prosecutions anyone?). Plus in a "do I need to call a crisis team?" way.

The best thing about Mamdani's campaign was how he gave the vibe that he'd have been happy to stick to his very focused message on affordability. Until the snotty rascism came out. Then they made it look like the opposition just handed them the material to just SKEWER that nonsense.

He didn't get into Columbia, but he did go to Bowdoin, alma mater of one Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain and really Bowdoin knows how to pick 'em. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joshua_...
