I think Cory Doctorow really put it best Conservatives think everything in the past was different from what is really was because they are remembering it from the viewpoint of childhood naïveté

It’s no use. This is Democracy. Doomed to fail because of populism. Trump won the elections. And so will Geert Wilders in The Netherlands and Le Pen in France. Dumb as hell, just as their voters. All of our shock and outrage, it’s not going to help. There’s no karma. No justice. Just failed humanity

If the Lord is your strength and your shield, why do you need a mask and a Kevlar vest?

This is my favorite photo demonstrating that correlation ≠ causation.

at least they still have comedians in the netherlands by dutch comedian arjen lubach i needed a laugh, but at the same time - VERY aware that this is a harbinger of things to come also...F*&K DISNEY & bob iger 💢💢💢 youtu.be/7vRX-BQAjeE?...

Jimmy Kimmel’s show has been cancelled - The New Disney #Trump #JimmyKimmel #Disney #LUBACH

@franstimmermans.groenlinkspvda.nl Beste meneer Timmermans, ik heb op bluesky veel contact met Amerikanen die erg bang zijn, zeker sinds Kimmel zijn show is verloren. Ze willen dolgraag naar Europa komen, maar hier kom je haast niet binnen. Is het niet een idee die regels te versoepelen?

4 Republicans. Jesus. That’s bleak. As an outsider watching from Australia, it makes it seem as if the republicans might be pro-pedophile, which is a disturbing thought. How vested are they? How widespread is this mindset? They should never govern again quite frankly.

Everything for the dictator. A red carpet. A podium being vacuumed live. Like he’s some award-winning celebrity. Not a war criminal who murders our civilians. Our children. Non-stop. And today the world talks about him like he’s a star - instead of dragging him to The Hague. F***.

US army rolling the red carpet to murderer’s plane. I will never forget this image.

According to fact-checkers, Donald Trump made 30,573 false or misleading claims during his first presidency (2017-2021). Ongoing analyses from CNN and PolitiFact document thousands more since, including over 100 in his first 100 days of 2025. Exact lifetime total likely exceeds 35K.

MAGA is DEI for incompetent mediocre white dudes.

Wilders loopt opnieuw weg: zijn mannen te emotioneel voor politieke verantwoordelijkheid?

True story.

BREAKING: Over 100,000 Protest in The Hague for Gaza. This is one of the largest protests in The Hague in 60 years.

This is what Trump & maga do not understand. Globalization is not a bad thing, everyone relies on each other for supply chains. Trying to do this all here is not currently possible and may never be… unless my fellow Americans want to start working in a low cost factory making everything. But why?

Proud member of the congregation. 😁

Alina Habbard posted: NOTHING CAN STOP THIS MAN FROM FIGHTING FOR HIS COUNTRY. David Simon had a succinct 2-word response: “Bone spurs.”

Banksy did it again.

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II. Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

This is what Trump deserves.

No Honor Amongst Thieves!

Card I received this morning from my cousin. @vbenedict.bsky.social I couldn’t figure out how to attach a photo in a DM. Enjoy!

Almost unbelievable
