This seems like good news!

Am I the only person who thinks "bloodred" looks like the past tense of "bloodre"? What's wrong with leaving the adjective open or hyphenating it, @merriam-webster.com? #AmEditing

We would be a lot better off as a country at the moment if more of our institutions had said, "Fuck you, make me" over the past year and a half

Look, the Republican Party is pushing white supremacist policies to destroy our ability to change the system through democratic electoral politics. So it's time to stop giving their billionaire benefactors our money. Cancel ONE THING from a billionaire today. You can do it! #CancelParty

The collective left needs to be more vengeful This isn’t some reactionary statement This is a well researched position They’re beating us by relying on our willingness to follow the intent of the law instead of the letter of it, and to try to be fair Fuck fair Don’t be fair to Nazis Ruin them

I'm developing a pavlovian rage response to the word "disappointed" that implies you had high expectations which weren't met, and it conveys resigned acceptance. if you are a Dem still using "disappointed" to talk about Republicans in 2026, you have lost the plot entirely

This is exactly right.

It exists! I interviewed backup dancers, producers, the costume designer, the song’s producers who granted the rights, and so many more who were involved: web.archive.org/web/20240227...

Woohoo, just caught a calvary/cavalry typo #AmEditing

the left's problem is way less "stop sounding so smart about what you believe" and more "stop sounding like you poll tested to decide what you believe" Mamdani is not out here dumbing shit down. he's LITERALLY EDUCATING US. LOL he's just saying what he believes, but with charisma & enthusiasm!

I just want to add, since this is breaking containment, that this can't be made right. these people, each one a whole universe, are gone. there can only be justice for the perpetrators; public remorse & restitution; & reform to ensure future aid systems are more just and less prone to imperial whims

Today is Missing and Murdered Indigenous Persons Awareness Day, a reminder of all the missing and murdered Indigenous people, and the violence this community has faced for generations. Indigenous communities deserve answers, justice, and safety. Our government must do better.

So, shouldn’t blow up boats, shouldn’t murder your own citizens. Got it.

When Rudy Giuliani dies, remember that he won't be able to see the mean things you post about him. But the rapidly decomposing president who sees him as a political partner and who's worried about his own impending death absolutely will.

What the actual fuckcakes?

My preferred AI metaphor is actually Asbestos. - Seemingly magical properties - Developed and experimented with to make endless products - Poisoned countless communities in it's creation - Everything it was used for eventually becomes a toxic hazard to mitigate & it's in the fucking walls now

Me three.

I'm guessing @clairewillett.bsky.social is having a relaxing morning and has not yet been spammed with bishop news... that or she's busy doing interpretive dance over it

Happy International Workers' Day. Solidarity. Poster by @rlmartstudio.bsky.social, and also on my office wall.

Infeasible things become feasible all the time. Repealing the Voting Rights Act wasn't feasible until it was. People who really wanted it repealed tried until they did it. We can change things, too. Negate the corrupted insurrectionist members of the SCOTUS. www.the-reframe.com/the-unmovabl...

Every historian worth their shit that studies fascism & domestic discord is so funny because they’re all the nicest people alive & they all come to the same conclusion which is that yeah you just gotta kill these guys. Can’t leave one alive.

It's time to build the ballroom It's time to hide the files It's time to cover the crimes of all the pedophiles

Why impeachment? If it won't remove him? This is why!

Amazing to me that people keep screaming about security failures in a situation where security did not fail. Bad things didn't even happen to bad people, so you can stop pretending to be worried about that. Stop whining for a bigger, badder police state.

SUPPORT THESE DATA CENTERS {from Magic City Books magiccitybooks.com }

World Central Kitchen but for houseless youth. Kids finding and feeding other streetkids and learning skills.

okay but also I would bring back Television Without Pity and pay people exorbitant wages to write 14-page analytical essays on every episode of the things I like

Ugh, I hate this so much

Yes! APPROVED for Edge of Mercy! Victory is mine, bwahahahaha

It's not hyperbole in the least to say Musk purchased a six-month shadow presidency for $280 million and used the power of that shadow presidency to 1. Steal the government’s data, 2. Permanently damage the state’s ability to regulate his businesses, and 3, kill non-white people.

“Behind every moment you felt, there was a team that made it real. This Peabody Award is for all of them - the cast, the crew, the storytellers who gave everything to this story. We're so grateful for the recognition, and even more grateful for the people who made it possible.” via heatedrivalrytv

“RFK is a eugenicist who believes that people with chronic health conditions deserve to die preventable deaths” is a plain fact that the news media cannot or will not tell the public.

Somehow everything that happens under this regime is a metaphor for every other thing that's happening under this regime.

"should we really resort to playing dirty to defeat the nazis i–" yes. kick em in the fucking balls. what kind of question is that. grow the fuck up

Trump is within sight of an under 30% overall approval rating. One of the most important causes right now is to establish a media narrative and popular support behind severe punishments and consequences to our present criminals running things.

virginians, if you planned to vote in today’s election & have not already: don’t forget we have same day, in person registration AND if you’re 17 but will turn 18 before nov 3, you can register and vote today. (post from the charlottesville office of voter registration & elections)

Virginia if you haven’t already, getting to the polls today really might make a difference. #YesOnRedistricting
