Got interrupted watching @lastword.msnbc.com but what I've seen so far is... okay, maybe not restoring my faith in humanity, not after someone I followed (past tense) wrote last night that she was "mad enough to gut a bitch"... But it's helping my mood a lot. Lawrence *is* brilliant.

Murc's law. It is NEVER wrong.

Thanks to @theoldmagoo.bsky.social for pointing me in the direction of this (and in the direction of a few more people I'm now glad to be following). It contains more reason than anything else I'm likely to see tonight.

Republican voters don’t blame Republicans for *anything.* Democratic voters blame Democrats for *everything.* It’s pretty easy to see how fascists gained complete control of our federal government.

Boy, I need to not be on fucking Bluesky tonight.

Clearly I'm missing something. TWO FUCKING DEMOCRATS in the Senate agree with one independent that the shutdown ends in exchange for a promise of a vote in 2 months. TWO Dems. And neither is Chuck Schumer. Yet I am seeing "Dems" once again getting lambasted over this. TWO out of FORTY-FIVE. WTF??

Apologies, but I just can't help loving this picture, even though it's AI *and* the quote is spurious/misattributed.

Tough times out there...

76 today and she still runs hot.

OOOH!! THIS, THIS!!!

Propaganda-pissing "the blue party is at fault for everything" troll you might want to block, or mock, or whatever moves you.

Sure ::snort:: -- Vance and Rubio. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Just gonna drop this here; I wrote it a year ago, and am STILL seeing the same shit from certain men already berating white women about their voting habits. Which would be hilarious if it weren't maddening. Oh, and I've never been afraid to cite MY sources.

Again: Always nice when people who go WAY out of their way to pretend you said something you didn't say walk themselves out via blocking... like they're wearing big ol' Hefty Lawn and Leaf bags, straight to the dumpster.

This was derived from a story from an extremely fake website, and individuals are doing their part to spread easily debunked "news" far and wide.

I don't normally pass these on, but this one gives me pause. Do California Rethugs not know how to use mailboxes?

Election night recap—HOLY SH*T edition. 👏🏼👏🏼🔥🔥

Precisely where did this phrase "quiet rebuke" come from? Last night was not QUIET. apnews.com/article/trum...

A night like tonight... Just one is worth 1,000 No Kings protests. It spells out EVERYTHING. Clearly. People don't get to vote often enough. We AREN'T ALLOWED to vote often enough. Look how long we're stuck with a fuckwit like Fetterman. First: Recall elections have to be made legal everywhere.

I'm having difficulty wrapping my brain around how a post can be THIS offensive and THIS fucking clueless, in so many different ways. 🤬

This is brutal. And this woman had kidney surgery in August. Headline's wrong, though: the ICE pigs hit HER car. Had to use an archive link for the article. The link to the video is in 2nd post. I is hard to watch. These fucking pigs need to spend their LIVES in jail. archive.ph/Xvc6j

Best headline of the day, probably (link in 2nd post):

@clownfeet53.bsky.social -- We clearly need to find this movie. Or, y'know, this dress.

Guess this means we'll see more entire accounts being labeled "Rude," with these subjective criteria? "Toxic" or OT comments? Also: Know what'd help with "Reply"? Keeping the MAIN post VISIBLE while the reply window is up, so the writer can make sure they're referencing correct wording.

A retired cop posted a meme on FB of Trump saying "We have to get over it" THE DAY AFTER a Jan. 2024 school shooting in Perry, IOWA (1 dead 6th-grader, 7 wounded). The former cop added, "Seems relevant today"-- "today" being a Charlie Kirk candlelight vigil 11 days after his death in Sept 2025. ➡️

I don't believe the SCUMBAG factor of @jaketapper.bsky.social can be underestimated. Here, we also learn that Tapper has a couple of equally ignorant and SCUMBAGGY teens. What does Tapper think Trump's gonna do for HIM? Make him the Royal Press Secretary For Life? www.mediaite.com/media/news/c...

May Publix Super Markets continue to reap the wrath of its utterly irresponsible attitude toward guns and gun violence. www.orlandosentinel.com/2025/10/30/c...

This would almost be funny-- if Vance weren't VP in a regime that will be coldly starving a whole lot of "God's creatures." ~~“If you’re not taking care of God’s creatures then you are certainly going to be, I think, a pretty bad person in other ways too.”~~ www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Fugly MAGAt wingnut for your blocking and muting pleasure. @purplesky67.bsky.social

WTAF??

Thanks, NY Times. Maybe I'm thick, but does "recap" now mean "loaded with spoilers"? Even when the "recap" is published on the same date as the premiere aired? Published at 10pm, no less? ~~‘It: Welcome to Derry’ Season 1 Premiere Recap: Nuclear Family.~~

Halloween idea, for anyone fitting a similar template, in a neighborhood where fascists aren't running amok:

Karoline Leavitt officially announced the "Launch of a large-scale investigation to find the people behind 'No Kings.'" I've saved her some time.

Fucking cowards. PIGS. Including McLaughlin and Noem. (Is THAT "rude" enough for you, Bluesky?) They didn't just terrorize kids. They broke 6 ribs of a 67-year-old man who was trying to drive home. And WHY is this detail showing up ONLY in a UK publication?? www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Did you know Democrats are holding shadow hearings? Documenting? Gathering evidence and data? Or are you busy yelling at two Democrats you know and praising the other two you know? There are over 200 Democrats in the House alone. At least follow your reps. And look for their posts.

There must be a reason I get blocked by so many twenty-something "illustrators" whose feeds consist of drama, endless gaming commentary, childish political declarations, & often tragic drawings of huge-boobed fantasy creatures. I mean, I appreciate them saving me the hassle. It's just funny/odd.

My, my, my, Rethugs are SO busy with HORSESHIT instead of paying people and feeding people. We're back in BiDeN iS oLd territory! I won't link to CNN, but look what good ol' Jake Tapper, @jaketapper.bsky.social , is up to there. Same craven shit, different day. Something more responsible below.

This seems like... utter bullshit. Unless only know-nothing Dem-bashers, including Rethugs, were the main ones polled. www.semafor.com/article/10/2...

Bluesky just updated and has removed nearly all my ability to SEE the links allowing photo/gif attachment and other stuff, including character countdown. Way to go, BS.

📌 Kudos Rachel Maddow for breaking this down for us 🐥

This is amazing. And it’s truly the stuff of nightmares.

I guess "erratic," "capricious," and "mercurial" are NYTimes-ese for "thoroughly batshit insane." And WTF is this "The question now is whether [Trump] can build on his record"?? His record of batshit insanity? I don't subscribe; saw the headline & read it via archive to see how ridiculous it'd be.

All this. Just torn to shreds. Just like the country.

Ignoring that people are being abducted in the street, parents are being ripped away from their children and disappeared in broad fucking daylight, and armed military members are roaming the streets of American cities, in order to compliment the person responsible for this - BERNIE CAN FUCK OFF!🖕🖕

Why is @moderation.bsky.app allowing this on the Homeland Security propaganda account?? Even Xitter has deleted this. Bluesky has NOT. HEY MODS: Nazi propaganda is RUDE AS FUCK. Take it from someone who YOU think knows "rude." gizmodo.com/dhs-little-d...

Gasp! More voting fraud! Guess which party? "Elizabeth Ann Davis, 61, a Republican, has previously been convicted of forgery and other offenses in Florida and Colorado..." Guilty of casting ballots for her late ex-husband & (living) son. www.cbsnews.com/colorado/new...

This really has to be seen to be believed. Use the right arrow to advance through those "major events." Be sure you've taken any daily blood pressure meds first. Funny how they left out "2017: Trump invites Russian officials into the Oval Office, Americans find out from Tass."
