These people like John Fetterman have one religion in common: Wealth. Its credo is that a person’s worth is directly proportional to the amount of investments you have. If you don’t invest, and you live off of a salary instead, they don’t give a shit and are contemptuous about you. #EatTheRich

@fetterman.senate.gov and the traitorous 7 can fuck all the way off. Our premiums are going from a manageable $385/month to $1961/month due to subsidies not being extended. I live in PA, so his refusal to listen to constituents like me whose premiums are increasing by 500% is infuriating.

MTG, as always, is saying things that get her what she’s always wanted: attention, support, and votes. What she says might change, but the intent behind her message has not.

This is true everywhere, but especially true in parts of the country where the prevailing cultural trait is frugality, even when it isn’t lean times. Like Pennsylvania Dutch, for instance. Building anything luxurious or extravagant is madness when the grocery store prices are high.

There is enough there that the wealthiest 400 Americans could put poverty in the history books if they so desired, with $2.4 trillion left over. Hoarding wealth while others starve is unconscionable. #EatTheRich

This is heartwarming 💗💗💗

🚨🚨Wow‼️In these times of uncertainty we need more Romeo’s in the world. He paid for people to eat for an hour and over 200 people were fed. This is the humanity and community we need right now. Bravo, Romeo‼️🔥💥🔥

Progressing people >>> progressing tech Faster technology is meaningless if human beings are not empowered and emancipated by it.

He shut the government down for a month to hide files establishing the extent of his fraternization with the most infamous serial child rapist of the last century, and now he is threatening to invade Nigeria to protect members of a religion he pretends to practice but has never actually belonged to

We should be able to agree that there’s nothing wrong with someone on SNAP treating themselves or their kids once in awhile The idea that if you’re poor you must never have a “treat” reinforces the notion that poverty is a choice and a failing It’s neither, and we shouldn’t police anyone’s food

May Trump stub his toes and whack his kneecaps on the Lincoln bathroom marble in the middle of the night every night until he’s gone. The Lincoln bathroom looks inappropriately gaudy at a time when Trump is creating a famine for lower income Americans. Fuck that guy.

Such a brilliant post! This should be on a t-shirt or a billboard 🙌

I’ll take my Camus-sant with a side of despair, the pain questioning the very existence of every buttery flake 😭😭

If our congressional representatives hated poverty instead of hating poor people, we would all be better off. Instead we have self interest instead of actual representation. Remember this on Election Day.

For us, ~$390 to ~$1960 A 500% increase.

A reminder as Trump removes SNAP benefits that our tax dollars have already funded: Famines are manmade.

The bottom line is that the GOP absolutely cannot be trusted to deal with any societal problem. They lead with cruelty and focus exclusively on how to package private greed as public service.

Trump complaining about CREW @citizensforethics.org , which is literally an ethics watchdog org that tries to minimize corruption in DC, says everything you need to know about how unethical Trump is 👀

And the GOP in the Legislative branch (plus DINO @fetterman.senate.gov ) don’t gaf since they’re getting a paid vacation. It’s infuriating. They need to go.

Meanwhile states like PA are still only required to pay $7.25/hr (the fed minimum wage). And before anyone retorts with “yes, but most places pay far more than $7.25/hr”, I’ll remind you that the scale should START at a living wage, which is closer to $25/hr, the equivalent to $50K/year.

The Trump regime's USDA has announced it will not use the $6 billion already in reserve to fund the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), even as more than 42 million Americans face the loss of food benefits. Hit the pic ⬇️ & contact your reps! resist.bot/petitions/PX...

“Don’t want to lose SNAP? Tell the Dems to reopen the government!” SNAP assistance gets cut in the big beautiful bill too. Healthcare is slashed as well. They’re withholding food for 40 million Americans to try and force the Dems to sign off on cutting food AND healthcare!

My god! @sarahkendzior.bsky.social describes Don Robinson SP like I imagine Robin and Julie probably described Chain of Rocks. Live on and be as human as you can, because tragically, the Kerry sisters can’t. ❤️

Deep and descriptive. Hits the nail on the head a few times too i.e. "The quality they seek to cultivate most is envy; and from envy, inclusion; and from inclusion, a façade of safety. The end result is complicity. But people in political cults do not realize that until it is too late."

This is symbolic of what he’s doing to the country as a whole, tearing it limb from limb. A General Strike is long overdue. DJT is a madman who won’t stop until he’s forced to stop.

In case you hadn’t noticed DJT’s contempt for Americans during covid, now we have him ordering tomahawks to explode over JD Vance’s security detail near Camp Pendleton in CA, and this AI generated slop. 🙄 DJT is what happens if Jim Jones became president.

Somewhere in the bsky verse, @markhamillofficial.bsky.social felt a great disturbance in the force, and has a great desire to fact-check.

I love the PNW, where there are likely as many different nuanced words for rain as the Inuit have words for snow ☔️

When I saw Kenny Loggins was trending, I was so relieved on many levels to find out why. 😅

Not to mention our CIC is a pedo reality tv show host who still won’t release the Epstein files 👀

#NoKings yesterday was incredible! I had a great time in my frog jumpsuit. 🐸💚 As an AuDHD person, I’m gonna be fr. Today is a self care day. I’m out of spoons from being “on” for those hours. Yesterday was AMAZING, but I have to budget for rest too. 🫶✌️ #autism #ADHD #AuDHD

Also, to my peeps in PA, 🚨Please vote to RETAIN all judges on Election Day! Otherwise they will be replaced by MAGA judges who plan to roll back our rights! 🚨 Please share and VOTE 🗳️

This happened at #NoKingsBethlehemPA

Great turnout at #NoKingsBethlehemPA today! At least 1K just on 1 corner 🫶 And, YES, we were civil 🐸

I think I speak for a lot of us when I say Portland is my Spirit Animal 🫶

I’ll be heading to a wine tasting in a little bit. Thinking about bringing a salad to share. 🥗 Maybe a base of limestone for minerality, sage and bay leaves for that whiff of herbs, a lime for citrus notes, lemongrass, berries, chocolate, vanilla beans, and of course leather and tobacco 🍷

Gearing up for tomorrow’s #NoKings 🐸

Can’t imagine what could go wrong when 3 authoritarian kleptocrats get together for “talks” on the heels of Trump’s meeting with Zelenskyy 👀🚨 apnews.com/article/trum...

We have reclaimed frogs and are rescuing Pepe from the Dark Side ™

Failing to hold young men accountable for vile behavior does young men a disservice. Democrats need to fill this gap by committing to inspire young men. In our zeal to help traditionally marginalized groups, please don’t ignore young men. HT: @profgalloway.com , who has expressed this sentiment.

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

Boosting this account! If you want to get behind the inflatable protests in Portland, Operation Inflation is donating the costumes. They are small but effective! HT: @4nikkolas.bsky.social tagging you bc I suspect you’d love this too 🫶 www.operationinflation.com bsky.app/profile/oper...

Insurance rates up $2000. Food benefits cut off. Farmers unable to sell their crops. Skyrocketing national debt. $40 billion to Argentina. America First!

Word is they plan to invoke the Insurrection Act on 10/17. That’s not a coincidence. It’s a sign of fear 🤣 Time to invoke the inflatable frogs and rescue Pepe from the Dark Side ™ 🐸 #NotInMyPond 🪷

I say we bring that Portland energy nationwide on #NoKingsDay on 10/18

Took some Tylenol after being triple-vaxxed. 💉 My autism? Circumcised like RFK Jr’s face. Epstein files? Still intact.

Someone told Trump he needed to get more buff and tone up— now Mar-a-Lago smells like buff-colored toner and he STILL hasn’t released the Epstein files. 🍊

MAGA: “We’ll use tariffs to protect American industry!” Linguist: “You mean taʿrīf, from Arabic? That’s cute.” The Silk Road says hi. 🧭

CAPTION THIS! Wrong answers only. I’ll go first. Dennis Kucinich to RFK Jr.: “Sir, the latest research suggests that brain worms cause autism.”
