For those folks who forgot how normal Presidents wish their country a Merry Christmas:

Reposting for awareness. This fascist regime will use ANY underhanded tactic it can get away with—and based on the response they've been getting, is ALL OF THEM—to ensure that your vote doesn't have any sway. Fascist regimes do not willingly give up their power. They have to be FORCED out of it.

In case anyone still needs yet another example of how the Dems are completely and utterly failing what's left of this country: this fascist regime was "dragging its feet" on trying to explain why they were committing WAR CRIMES, and Tim's bright idea was to threaten to… "reduce their travel budget."

🚨🚨🚨SSA is facing nationwide systems issues!!!!! Some stuff we can do and a lot of stuff we can’t!!!! Please be patient with us if you call or visit us today!!!!! If your business isn’t urgent, consider calling or visiting another day!!!!!! 🫠🫠🫠

As someone on the Patreon in question, it's a good deal. I set myself a monthly budget for how much I can spend on Patreons (as otherwise I'd be broke almost immediately), and Wee Lass is one of the accounts I've always made sure I kept if I had to juggle subs around.

"Coral reefs? We don't know what you're talking about. Shut up! YOU'RE a coral reef!" —this regime, smugly going back to their destruction of the actual coral reefs

I would expect nothing less vile from a company that is LITERALLY named after the device that the Epitome of Evil, Sauron, uses to try and thwart the heroes. A surveillance/data company named after the scrying device abused by The Bad Guys is so on-the-nose cartoonish, it's not even funny.

As God Intended ™

Huh. Pretty neat!

Well worth the watch. And I hate that we've gotten to the point in this capitalist dystopia where you have to explicitly let people KNOW your animation is NOT AI—as opposed to that animation being the default—but here we are.

I've never been one for live concerts, but I am happy to say that while I have only been to three of them in my lifetime, all three have been @alyankovic.bsky.social. No regrets.

At only 40 minutes, I can only assume this is an abridged list. #legaleagle #trump #crimes #fascist #maga #republican #gop

Top shelf comment right here, folks.

SO MUCH THIS. Until the remaining Dems finally accept the reality that a lawless, corrupt, fascist regime is in control of the entire federal government, we'll never even be able to START putting together a way out. Not to be flippant, but Step One of ANY recovery is admitting you have a problem.

"[…] it is not uncommon for attendees to faint at White House events. [Oz] had just been sworn in to his current role when Trump started fielding questions from reporters and [his 11-year-old granddaughter in attendance] passed out. " Hmm, I think I'm starting to see a common thread here.

Literally last minute, but I managed to get in the KS just under the wire! #jouneytothequest #jttq #indieanimation

Oh, hey, a new layout for a BBEG's lair in my next campaign. He will, of course, be an incompetent idiot of a villain who has merely surrounded himself with hordes of slavish cultists, but once you fight your way through all his mooks, he's really easy to take down. #ttrpg #roleplayinggame #dnd

Nothing like some soothing, inspiring background music to get you through the work day! #TheElvesofAmaranth #lofi #indieanimation

On the one hand, good. On the other, I am worried by this: —On transatlantic guarantees, he said European doubts about US reliability are overblown: "He has literally said America will support its NATO allies 100 percent."— If ANYONE still thinks Trump will honor ANY promise he makes, well… 🤦

With Hazbin Hotel making its second-season resurgence, I was not aware I needed this until I saw it. Somehow, the far-too-long freeze-frame at the end just pulled it all together. #HazbinHotel #hazbinhotels2 #alastor #lucifer #charlie #mimzy

Of course, what Vance is missing here is that the "American culture"—which he expects immigrants to conform to—is, in fact, the AMALGAM of ALL those immigrants' cultures. It's not some monolithic, immutable codex handed down from on high. It constantly changes and shifts as more people are added.

A hallmark of Conservatism is a lack of empathy: an inability to understand/be aware of/relate to the feelings of others. If you have no empathy, you can only assume EVERYONE in the world MUST therefore think the same way you do about things. Only 'sick' people could NOT think the same as you do!

Quick update re: Trump's nuanced opinion of Large White Buildings That Are Supposed To Represent Democracy: How it started / how it's going:

This was a great recap of why we literally can not "go back." The America that we used to know is GONE, and it definitionally can not return. But what we CAN do is try to build something NEW that's better than what used to be. But we can't start building something new until we first ADMIT WE LOST.

My parents attended a No Kings protest yesterday in Ocean City, Maryland; they estimated about 1000 people were there marching against this regime, which I imagine is pretty good for a summer tourist town in the Red part of Maryland with a permanent population of only 7k. #NoKings

Accounts like the ones now trickling in from this fascist regime are just looking for any attention—good OR bad—and to spread their Hatch-violation propaganda. Do not indulge them. Remember the Bluesky way when it comes to ALL bad actors and trolls: Block Early, Block Often, Do Not Engage.

Okay, so I'm not much of a Pokemon person, and I don't really use Imgur anymore since the whole MediaLab FUBD debacle, but I did stumble across this link recently and had to chuckle at a few of these movie poster parodies.

I don't blame folks who are in the public eye for random people coming up to them for photos at events. I didn't blame Trump for that, so I won't blame Mike for that, either. Instead, I will blame them both—and the rest of this regime—for being HUGE FASCIST ASSHOLES who are destroying our country.

For all that's holy, YouTube: stop changing things just to change them. Your "Save To Playlist" menu was FINE; it didn't need the checkboxes to change to bookmark icons, and it didn't need the thumbnail of the current first video, either. And NOW you can't check/uncheck multiple options at once. 😡

Done! Oh, wait.

Clarification: President Donald Trump's administration for now HAS BEEN TOLD they must stop firing workers during the government shutdown. Given that this "administration" consistently ignore laws and rulings that it does not like, this ruling IN NO WAY guarantees it will be followed or enforced.

Happy Indigenous Peoples’ Day! And remember, people like Trump and the rest of this regime want you to see their heroes—like Columbus—as these infallible demigods of white culture who could do no wrong and never spawned any problems. Because if their HEROES can be shown to be flawed, so can THEY.

"Earlier this month, the Army announced Detachment 201—the name being a reference to HTTP code—for the newly commissioned executives." I could imagine codes that would be a better fit. 402 Payment Required 403 Forbidden 405 Method Not Allowed 406 Not Acceptable 451 Unavailable For Legal Reasons

Good lord, the White House/Trump is even more unhinged and all over the board on this whole Nobel Peace Prize thing that they usually are.

Holy crap. So @glitchprod.com just partnered with the crew from @lackadaisy.bsky.social's Lackadaisy for a full six (?) episodes. Glitch is like Santa Claus for indie animations these days, and I'm so here for it. Congrats to everyone involved!

As if the emotion-based "rebranding" with "Liberty" in the name wasn't a big enough clue, this is really, REALLY bad. Just as they'd lost all credibility in every other "official" statement from this fascist regime, there goes any potential credibility in how actual VOTING will be carried out.

Unthinkable that he could just literally say that so blatantly, so unconcerned, even by this point. But we all know his koolaid-addled supporters will still just say "Oh, you're just misunderstanding him, is all" or some other weak ass shit.

Well, these are depressing and broadly backwards: I see the Chamber of Commerce of my hometown of Ocean City MD is not only hosting a seminar on "How Artificial Intelligence Can Work for Your Business" but is ALSO putting the proceeds of their annual Gala to benefit the "Stop Offshore Wind" project.

RFKjr: "Wi-Fi radiation opens up your blood-brain barrier, so all these toxins that are in your body can now go into your brain." Joe Rogan: How exactly does Wi-Fi do that? RFKjr: "Now you’re going beyond my expertise." www.yahoo.com/news/article... I swear, the potential memes write themselves.

Anyone else having issues with @skyfeed.xyz's OnlyPosts feed? As of an hour or three ago, it appears to only be displaying things from 1d old or older. @support.bsky.team @bsky.app #support #onlyposts

Huh. If it wasn't for the fact that this directly benefits both the Saudis and Jared Kushner, the EA acquisition might have otherwise been the first Private Equity Firm buyout where I'd actually be rooting FOR the Equity Firm to strip everything down to the bones and sell the parts for scrap.

So, here's the funny thing, JD… we're not calling people who DISAGREE WITH US Nazis. We're calling people who ACT LIKE NAZIS, Nazis. Just so happens that we ALSO happen to disagree with the idea of people acting like Nazis, so I can see where that might be confusing if you're not paying attention.

So... completely on-brand, is what you're saying?

Just a reminder for the hard-of-thinking out there who still don't get it. If you're Anti-Antifa... you're just plain Fa.

After they inter him, I hope they remember to flush twice.

Holy crap, was that good. @glitchprod.com, Dana, John, Zach... You guys REALLY hit it out of the park (no pun intended) with this one. #kog #knightsofguinevere #glitch

Sorry if we just make more trouble for Bluesky, but the proper "appropriate, legal and Constitutionally sound" response to Clay's demand is FUCK YOU, and FUCK CHARLIE KIRK. No one deserves to be murdered, but I will shed no tears over his literal reaping of what he had sowed. And that IS my right.

"Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer […] said Democrats want to make sure […] that the funding agreement they come to will be honored by the White House." You already have your answer, @schumer.senate.gov. We already know from years and years of Trump behavior: it will NOT be honored. So NOW what?

Jesus fucking Christ, @schumer.senate.gov … "grave harms" are not BYPRODUCTS of the Republican policies, they ARE the Republican policies! You CAN NOT "negotiate" with them, because they see IS NO middle ground to be bipartisan ABOUT. As I think the kids still say nowadays, THEY 👏 ARE 👏 FASCISTS 👏
