Everyone gather your favorite sad song… it’s time to take it to hell!!!!

“Those people are disagreeing with me! Kick them out!”

⚠️WOKE CONTENT⚠️ 🧵 During segregation, Black artists were barred from most White-owned venues. Out of necessity, they created their own network of clubs, theaters & juke joints — known as the Chitlin’ Circuit. (cont) #ProudBlue #ResistanceRoots #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Six states have adopted new congressional maps since August, and many lawsuits are now moving through courts. So, where exactly does that leave the fight for control of Congress? You asked and we answered: boltsmag.org/mid-decade-r...

You may recall the lurid tale Maria Farmer told about Epstein and Trump When she was in Epstein’s office With Trump ogling her And Epstein said “she’s not here for you” She told this to the FBI in 1996 They ignored her Later the Trump administration dismissed her She was finally vindicated today

. Not enough, billionaires are being visited by three ghosts anymore… .

lol one group of researchers sent 80,000 RESUMES across some of the largest employers in America and found that white people still get callbacks because they're white. 80,000 resumes. #blacksky

“Brian Strong” is right there…

That Compact essay is very easily picked a part with actual data/evidence, but what has become clear is there is very little will to do so as its dubious claims confirm a deeply held grievance amongst an apparently large % of our white colleagues that they are the victims of rampant discrimination.

Election Night 2024. We cut to a @thebeaverton.com pitch meeting. We are brainstorming headlines for Trump's second term. "He'll create 'The Patriot Games,'" I say. "Like the Hunger Games, but dumber." "He can't," my editors say. "That would break satire forever." We laugh. That's true. It would.

Rep. Mike Lawler trying to excuse the Republicans lack of a plan for healthcare in 15 years while they have tried to sabotage the system for years. His bill included restrictions on women’s reproductive care coverage. That is why the DEMS said NO! All they do is LIE!🤬🤬 @msnowreports.bsky.social

This is a wild hack. a16z gave a million dollars to startup called Doublespeed. They use a phone farm to flood social media with AI generated influencers and ads. A hacker remotely broke into the phone farm, unmasking the AI influencers/fake accounts, gave us the data www.404media.co/hack-reveals...

The Epstein files were due to be released this Friday Congress is breaking early for vacation Trump is preparing to go to war with Venezuela They set a quota for denaturalizing citizens. Bongino is resigning. These are distractions. They want you to forget about the list.

Hell yes for @summerlee.bsky.social speaking facts and defending our healthcare! “In the wealthiest nation in the world, no one should go without healthcare. We have bipartisan support to extend the ACA subsidies now it's on @speakermjohnson to bring it to a vote immediately”

while i am not an academic i did see this coming and post about it on bluesky, which is why i am quoted in this article

This is a credible unpacking of the neurological and physiological symptoms Trump has been displaying as of late. www.mind-war.com/p/trumps-col...

This is a quick flyover of Russian disinformation campaigns with a comparison to modern Trump media control. Worth the time for sure. globalnews.ca/news/4260938...

Oh look D A T A Turns out all the things we have been intuiting are accurate. If only we were allowed to adapt our institutions to respond instead of having an intentional delay….

The White House is now just explicitly stating its intent to kill and maim non-white people here and around the world and white men are *still* insisting they are at a societal disadvantage

@sarahkendzior.bsky.social Oh…. Oh no….

Ok so I’m in the middle of chapter 3 of @sarahkendzior.bsky.social’s “Hiding in Plain Sight”… I appreciate the forewarning that I was about to learn some crazy shit I didn’t know, and the story about you learning some crazy shit at too young an age when you were unprepared. In hindsight I didn’t pay

I feel you. Affirmative action, my story. Navy recruiters were ORDERED to visit HBCUs in Virginia in the 1980s. Affirmative action. They hadn't done that before. So I met a recruiter at Virginia State, tested, and got orders to NAS Pensacola.

Just finished “Children of Time” by Adrian Tchaikovsky. It instantly jumps into the conversation of required reading for modern dissidents. We won’t stop tearing each other apart until we understand the spark of humanity we share. A compelling and well-told story that was a pleasure to read.

At a certain point does it actually transcend the boundary of capitalism when the intention and the outcome are so pure that you accidentally find humanity on the other side?

Trump’s Chief of Staff Susie Wiles on the Epstein Files: “[Trump] is in the file. We know he’s in the file... was on [Epstein’s] plane... on the manifest.” "They were, you know, sort of young, single, whatever—I know it’s a passé word but sort of young, single playboys together.” #OpDeathEaters

Folks across Michigan are worried about threats to our democracy. I was asked about how we defend democracy recently in Saline:

someone do a wellness check on Bari Weiss -- CBS News has not posted a tweet about Erika Kirk today

@pedinska.bsky.social is that your shiba? What a cutie!

Just so nobody forgets that Palestinians are still dying because of Israel’s anti-Islamic war.

@queerliblib.bsky.social just added “The Dad Rock That Made Me a Woman” by @nikostratis.com, and I’m the least patient 43rd person in line you know. I’m also incredibly grateful for generous elders and brave storytellers!

🔴The World Upside Down: How a Top Official at Trump’s FBI Laundered Far-Right Disinformation The United States’ entire security apparatus is now being used to spread far-right propaganda rather than tackle genuine threats, reports @rvawonk.bsky.social bylinetimes.com/2025/12/15/t...

"According to the…annual Harris Poll, for the 1st time, a majority of Americans believe billionaires are a threat to democracy. A remarkable 71% believe there should be a wealth tax. A majority believe there should be a cap on how much wealth a person can accumulate." www.nytimes.com/2025/12/14/o...

This sounds like a great way to have AI scrape a bunch of course material for later regurgitation. Of course that’s in addition to the fascistic punishment kink that conservatives seem to revel in.

This is why I point out as often as I can that Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s freedom is all of our freedom. Humans have the capacity to extend their own understanding of self onto another being. It is an incalculable untapped potential that we don’t use empathy as a diving rod toward justice.

Your child’s teacher is inexperienced and unqualified. Is that a good thing?
