Because nothing will be done to stop it. Nothing.

Dear @mayormamdani.bsky.social, please bring back widespread and strict enforcement of Blocking The Box fines in Manhattan. Trucks and cars ignoring them is creating incredible gridlock. Thanks.

Periodic reminder: It is "Tell me X, without saying X." Telling you X, without telling you X would be "imply x." This post is for maybe 1 person.* *Me. The person is me.

Playing in a 2v2 match for fun. $0 on the line. One dude is not playing well and has thrown a round-long mantrum about it. He’s snapped both a 3w and a wedge in anger and I just heard him go “CAN’T BELIEVE I’M LOSING TO A GUY DRESSED LIKE THAT”

Strong same.

👏🏼

the very dumbest people are destroying our country

I'm sorry but if you're not radically pro-trans then you're not pro-trans at all. And if you're not pro-trans then you're not pro-human. And if you're not pro-human then go take a long walk off a short pier and let the rest of us live lives of joy you miserable fucks

@schumer.senate.gov MORE. Do you think Republicans *care* if what they do is "within the rules?" The moral high ground is WORTHLESS. Act, for hell's sake. DO SOMETHING.

@schumer.senate.gov you are worse than useless. You are doing nothing to protect Americans. Have you no sense of anything?! DO SOMETHING.

Check in on your trans friends today.

So not only did TN Republicans strip Memphis of representation, Speaker Sexton is also stripping Dems of committees for protesting it. Watch fascism work. www.wsmv.com/2026/05/12/m...

Tennessee you’re up. Get the vote out, please

Now. How about now?

Trump is posting absolutely deranged shit on social media this morning ahead of departing for China today. Get a load of this stuff.

The world needs him to die. Like now.

Oh bloody fucking HELL.

“Inevitable” The automobile was inevitable b/c the PEOPLE wanted it The personal computer was inevitable b/c the PEOPLE wanted it The internet was inevitable b/c the PEOPLE wanted it The smartphone was inevitable b/c the PEOPLE wanted it AI isn’t inevitable b/c THE PEOPLE DON’T FUCKING WANT IT!

Embid falls down a lot.

Professor of religion here: can confirm.

🚨 NEW TOOL for U.S. legal journalists ⚖️ I turned @allyjar.bsky.social's incredible crowdsourced Google doc on accessing state court records into an interactive map. Check it out and let me know about any errors, missing information, or ways I can improve this thing (link below)

This is exactly right, with one caveat: the reason "no it'll never fucking happen" is there (I bet) is to try (probably not successfully) to stave off dozens of annoying people replying just that. Except that impossible things become possible all the time, and it starts with saying what should be.

Rubio doesn’t come across as the biggest monster in this administration, but there’s a valid argument that he is. Demolishing USAID was a slow moving atrocity. He must never be freed of responsibility for it.

You can't "earn" a billion dollars and none of their examples did. Michael Jordan earned $93m playing basketball. He's worth $3.5b today because of our meticulously-engineered legal, economic, and tax structures that prioritize accumulated capital and property over everything else.

Air traffic Control is in crisis, planes are crashing, TSA lines are around the block, airlines are going out of business. And this fox news bozo went on a seven month-road trip while we were paying him to be transportation secretary? Do I have this right?

Virginia Gov @abigailspanberger.com and Democratic legislature should pass immediate legislation to redistrict anyway. If the old confederate states can do it post Callais - so can Dems in Virginia if they care about saving our democracy.

yes. change the statute on which this decision turned and redistrict according to the legitimacy conferred by the people of the state

whoever leaked that he’s panicking about leaks is the funniest person in the government

I don't want history to judge them, I want them to pay NOW.

This story is WILD. Juan Orlando Hernandez, the Honduran ex-president pardoned by Trump for narcotrafficking, seemingly caught on tape in dozens of conversations (if true), discussing plans with GOP and other figures to attack left-wing governments, and saying Israel paid for his pardon from Trump.

DON'T TEASE US

there's simply no adequate political response to this that isn't based on fully destroying the people and party responsible for it

This headline from Justice Roberts and the red banner of what Tennessee just did to Memphis after the SCOTUS gutted the Voting Rights Act..

can not imagine how americans got that impression john

Totally normal.

It occasionally bears repeating that under a Dem admin this would be a world historical scandal. With Trump, journalists more or less ignore it, or accept plainly nonsensical explanations (he's shaking hands so much he had to use his off hand I guess)

“Once again, the Supreme Court’s conservatives put their thumbs on the scale for Republicans. And once again, they’re very mad that people noticed.” @lizdye.bsky.social x @atrupar.com open.substack.com/pub/aaronrup...

holy shit this is real shop.indycar.com/products/inc...

Missed *again*. It's like Hades isn't even trying...

Man, that sounds terrible. Killed with impunity by agents of the state for just being on the street and protesting? Hard to see how regimes like that can continue to claim a popular mandate.

This is why im not ashamed to play video games on easy mode, because I'm playing life on Hell Mode.

We went from "armed gunman mere seconds away from shooting the president is killed by Secret Service" to "guy with a shotgun falls down on a different floor well outside the entrance of the ballroom and we can't find the bullets because that just happens sometimes" awfully fast.
