My local branch didn't have the new library card in stock. I came home and sulked then decided to go to the main branch in the rain. I'm glad I did.

God took the wrong Big Dummy!

I just watched the first 4 episodes of Wonder Man and I loved it. This is a superhero story. It's what the bronze age was trying to do. Before the 90s become the splash fights. @keithb10.bsky.social brought up Astro City which is a good reference. The spaces between the splash pages.

I love this Grateful Dead cover band. Bertha. Fantastic musicans. Serious Drag. Political. They are carrying torch forward in a way which makes me very happy. They releasing their favorite performances. Portion of proceeds go to Trans aid Nashville. berthagratefuldrag.bandcamp.com/album/slayin...

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Hundreds marched through San Francisco Saturday evening in solidarity with Minneapolis after federal agents shot and killed 37-year-old nurse Alex Pretti. It was at least the third shooting involving federal agents in the city in three weeks. 🎥: Travis Monson

I've been playing Pikmin Bloom and it is keeping me calm during all this. I walk. Plant flowers with my Pikmin and join mushroom battles. I did make some in game purchases and my son said the micro transactions are taking me over. 🤐

Text of the video posted by Mac Randolph “Never wanted to share this video but his speech is very on point.”

DEI hire CrazyEyes Ka$hApp took a quick break from sh*posting and flying his tone-deaf girlfriend around to spew lies on RW national TV. #AmericanGovGestapo

Worth noting that the @wsj.com has joined with the @nytimes.com and Bellingcat to say that ICE is lying in its description of the shooting of Alex Pretti. The video evidence more and more supports the view that this was a gratuitous execution. www.wsj.com/us-news/vide...

Minnesota's state FBI-like bureau is suing Noem. It says before pre-emptively declaring the killing righteous and abandoning the crime scene, feds took exclusive custody of evidence, including "apparently seized cellphones." MN asserts a sovereign right to investigate crimes within its borders.

The Republican numbers on these polls are never going to move - what's going to happen is that in a few years, nobody will have ever been a Republican.

Shooting mothers, nurses, while arresting priests and toddlers - this is what comes of that. Their terror campaign is completely backfiring on them. People aren't backing down, they're just getting enraged and radicalised.

What a fantastic resource.

You literally cannot trust a word they say about anything. They are unapologetic liars and killers. This is our political reality.

There’s no way around this: They will lie to justify the killing of their political enemies. They are doing it. This is a fascist regime. It is also a weak and unpopular one, and it won’t last.

I've been carrying my passport card with me ( I have both a book and a card). Today I went on a SF City Guides tour of Chinatown which explored the horrible racism they lived under. One of the things was that people had to carry their papers. I commented nothing has changed.

Sick. But this is what happens when you don't vote.

Umm... I have to say something... Wuthering Heights is not a romance novel. It's a story about one man's revenge against two families he feels wronged him. The novel has elements of Gothic romance, but Catherine and Heathcliff are far from romantic. 💀 www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bf_...

I've seen some folks giving into doomerism by citing the US's history of paramilitary violence shutting down fair elections in the South, and I want to add some historical context to support Jamelle here (as an historian of Reconstruction paramilitary violence)

yeah man, what would i, a black guy from the south, know about thugs intimidating people out of voting? what possible experiences in my family, which has been here since slavery, could ever inform my perspective?

Bluesky community! This is my official NYC mayor account. I’ll be posting updates on what’s happening at City Hall and how we’re delivering for New Yorkers. It’s great to be here.

Ah well. Can't disagree here really. Americans did vote for masked agents of the state to kill innocent people, whether they understood that at the time or not. Too bad they didn't listen to anyone who tried to explain it to them bsky.app/profile/atru...

This is all so upsetting. That's my profound thought for the day. 😔

A Black man named Keith Porter was shot and killed by an ICE officer on New Year’s Eve. Marimar Martinez was shot five times by an ICE officer in Chicago who went on to brag about leaving seven holes in her body. This is not new but it is expanding.

You should be embarrassed to be a member of congress and issuing anything other than impeachment resolutions. You're in the model UN. They should give you legos and a propeller hat

Clearly we are a rogue nation

36 years later. I still feel the same exhilaration. Coming home from lunch across the bay. I love my city.

I hope 2026 is kind to us all

Seen two to three days ago. When it was still December. WTF???

There is a good chance I'll ring in the New Year by watching SUPERMAN again.

🌍 This year, Chalk & Talk reached listeners around the world for evidence-informed conversations about math and education, making Chalk & Talk a top 1.5% podcast globally! Thank you for listening and thank you to all of my wonderful guests! More conversations in 2026. youtu.be/CCWTzaXzFJY?...

This is about the time I begin to pay attention to football. If we end up with a Patriots v 49ers Superbowl ( hometown v adopted home even though I e lived in SF longer) I told my daughter I'm going to be 49ers all the way. I warned the family in MA. I'm going to be a traitor!

more confirmation that lurking clearly behind this idea of the “heritage american” is a straightforward contempt for the actual history and tradition of this country, such that vermeule has to hallucinate a framework to justify his desire to jettison the clear meaning of the 14th amendment

Idiot. My grandmother worshiped Vishnu. All her children were named after the Ramayana. Every visit to India we went to the Hanuman temple. I'm am atheist. I will visit the temple and think of my grandmother. www.google.com/amp/s/timeso...

You guys. I could not put a saree on to save my life.( Born in Maine in 1964. I wonder if my citizenship will be revoked). My mom is 91. My nephew is getting married and part involves traditional clothing. Mom may not be there. I have been practicing. I can put it on now but my pleating needs work

I really liked this. Brave and the Bold with this current Superman and this Batman

I never saw Batman 2022. I'm watching now with my daughter. I really really like this. Why didn't I see it when it came out?

Here’s the U.S. government being officially religious in a country with no official religion.

Truly amazing how often people, usually though not always, men, will pipe up and inform you that they are an expert on something where you actually are.

it requires an absolutely staggering lack of self awareness for chatterton to complain that he has lost elite opportunities because he has anti-woke views.

😕🇺🇸

Morning.

Hello @jamesgunn.bsky.social Been a huge fan of #Supergirl and been running a fan site for 17 years. Would love to be part of the #SupergirlMovie celebration ! comicboxcommentary.blogspot.com

Boohoo. He knew the job was dangerous when he took it ( with apologies to super chicken).
