The factional grifters will hate this, but the Mamdani-Spanberger-Sherrill axis actually suggests the outlines of a broad, emerging Dem coalition organized around both anti-Trump *and* affordability politics, not a party bitterly divided against itself.

every victory speech is like “to those that did not vote for me just know i will work with you” nah dawg, we are running lib shit like it’s the four verts offense. gays everywhere. trans folks on every high school field hockey team. get on board or get smoked 42-0 at halftime.

This is a line from a classic work of literature, it is NOT about Dick Cheney 😅

Emo about this. Taco John's is a treat when you live in Iowa and can't be going out to restaurants much. I know conservative assholes -- the same people who need to get Jesus out of their mouths -- are gonna be crashing this for their TikToks but whatever. Telling on themselves. Taco John's forever

What are you handing out this year?

Posting on behalf of my daughter who's not on bsky.

We work by the month, or by the job, or by the profit; not for us to ask the why and wherefore of our work

#PROMIS #octopus #dannycasolaro The Reagan era continuance of gov’t program never ended, it just evolved. I’ll say it again: read @sarahkendzior.bsky.social before it’s too late.

Every $1 invested in SNAP generates $1.80 in economic activity. It’s not about the money, Trump just wants Americans to go hungry.

I am interested in starting to hear from care workers on SNAP about your concerns. I'm @motherjones.com's disability reporter. Please be in touch. My email is [email protected] and my Signal is juliametraux.49. Reposts are appreciated.

This is amazing and 100% correct! 😂

Some of yall need to start reading @jysexton.bsky.social and @sarahkendzior.bsky.social before it’s too late. You had fun at your #nokings parade yesterday, now it’s time to get to work. Media literacy, local political engagement and mural aid. Develop class consciousness comrades.

Updated my democracy values list today thanks to reminders from all of you! Thank you! - I was originally inspired to make this handwritten list by @hcrichardson.bsky.social who encouraged us to talk out loud about what democracy means to us. BTW I'm using blue fountain pen ink 😁💙

@susanschorn.bsky.social looks like Kelly wont break w/ Abbott after all 😑. Sad day for academic freedom at TX unis

Accurate! 😅😅

I think…people’s obsession with “a cause”…is precisely because autism’s genetic randomness is hard to stratify by social class……………..

It’s the best time of the year! Welcome to autumn, fsckheads! www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/its...

lol, lmao even

“Must be the wifi” 😑 these MFs are deeply unserious

Hey @governorwalz.mn.gov - how do we get an upper midwestern splotch on this fine map.

Trans rights are human rights.

the fact that the major investments right now is the ai bubble and crypto, neither of which is productive or employs workers, combined with enormous global debt, is just a disaster waiting to happen. Truly like I dont understand how we can keep going on like this.

The Alt National Park Service has spent months stealing from journalists, directly plagiarizing the work of others more than a hundred times. With more than 4.3 million followers on Facebook and nearly 900k here on Bluesky, they've built a massive following on theft.

100%. It’s both stupid and insufferable.

Two things that always help ground me: a @sarahkendzior.bsky.social article and Twin Peaks.

The governing party of the United States is shutting down the federal government to cover-up evidence the president sexually abused children so he can continue trying to implement dictatorship. That's just a true statement about the world!

people who use AI as a replacement for thinking, learning and communicating should be shamed and punished. the same way we shame and punish drunk drivers, or people who negligently discharge firearms. it is bad to misuse tools in a way that damages society

@repilhan.bsky.social showing them how it’s done!! 🙌

Also, they should’ve checked Know Your Meme. The allusion to the “Kermit sipping tea” meme is ahistorical, as it wasn’t widely used until 2014. 😅

Bluesky has the juice: confirmed 😂

I have been saying for months I hoped this happened. Can’t wait to hear the DOJ argue against itself and their boss. Let’s fucking go.

@jysexton.bsky.social love the latest ep, but Nick needs to kill the neolib in his head. Holy shit.

In Brands news, Smithfield Foods welcomed their summer interns with a song called "Fuck Me Baby"

Absolutely beautiful. Friends are amazing people.

I love that @katmabu.bsky.social is upending the typical Dem Campaign playbook and actually making a *material difference* in her community!

This is so fucking stupid. It’s just a computerized guessing machine. It doesn’t think/feel/write. It just vomits up what makes statistical sense based on the query entered.

Happy tax day everybody

Read this *again*. (Especially “good white liberals”…read this 3-4 times)

Hey guys, this is pretty cool

Boston is ready for Saturday’s national day of action: handsoff2025.com/?SQF_SOURCE=indivisible

The chattering class better not let this MF rebrand himself. He’s only changing his tune b/c the corruption and failure are SO obvious.

the more stagnant the economy and culture, the more stuck in a zero-sum mindset the typical voter, the easier it is for conservatives to win political victories

i’m stealing from @mtsw.bsky.social here, but we are seeing — on the national level — a very common red state dynamic. republicans tanking the economy and destroying the most dynamic sectors in order to *produce* a brain drain

For some that’s DSA, for some it’s the labor movement, for some it’s smaller community organizations. Whatever it is, we have to reach our hands out and welcome as many people as possible into organizing right now.

Chuck Schumer selling us all out will be the last straw for a lot of people. And they need to be organized into organizations and into a project that will outlive the Democratic Party.

@sarahkendzior.bsky.social your latest Q&A is great, and thank you *so* much for the Southern Illinois shout out at the end! I love where I grew up, but it often gets overshadowed by Chicago. No disrespect to ChiTown, but So. IL has a lot to offer, too!

John is doing the Lord’s work here
