As much as I love to joke about shit like Spider, The White Boy With Dreadlocks or the society of whales holding whale court to deal with the banished whale, it’s really fucking uncomfortable watching the movies and seeing Kate Winslet play what’s clearly supposed to be a Māori woman, accent and all

Marty Supreme should have been a 100min movie. Get me to the editing room. Not all movies have to be 2.5 hours.

This is a yikes too. He gets dogwalked by Susan Collins even though Generic Dem has a 9 pt margin. What I find funny is that the median Maine voter sees his tattoo and comments about sexual assault as a non-starter but we had how many people defending that shit here on Bluesky?

NWSL players have been swept up into a storm of transphobia and racism. What will the league do about it?

Need all my friends and coworkers to watch this Love is Blind reunion because wtf

I often don’t put a lot of stock in to Outsports as a legitimate org, but both including infamous TERF Martina Navratilova and then just hand waving away her trans-exclusionary views on women’s sport in their Power 100 is a new level of low for them.

They're human beings in need of medical care and you're a Catholic

The Street Vendors Association of Chicago is raising emergency funds to support vendors who can't safely work right now. They have a significant goal of $300k for impacted workers + families. GFM is here: www.gofundme.com/f/chicago-st... Instagram account: instagram.com/streetvendorsofchicago

Of course the M'VP is the AP Player of the Year & Defensive Player of the Year! 💅✨

A blanket condemnation of "political violence" in our current cultural context is worthless given the ways that any disruption of the status-quo is treated as "violence." In contrast, Pritzker locating the source of increase in violence in Pres. Trump's ongoing rhetoric attributes a cause.

Is denying people healthcare, kidnapping people from their jobs to be sent to detention camps, targeting minorities with legislation and hate speech campaigns not political violence?

Legends only

They're openly calling to lock up every trans person by force. We need every ally to speak out forcefully against this because trans folks cannot do this on our own.

Overnight, this extremely well-funded tech company run by a billionaire has gone from “There’s no way we can possibly stop our plagiarism machine from convincing children to kill themselves” to “If you type anything we don’t like, we’re calling the cops.” Either way, they take zero responsibility.

as a kcmo/kck suburb expert. i do think that travis kelce's dad has no idea the difference between lee's summit and leawood

NWSL After Dark: Monday edition 👀

An Alyssa Naeher goal just for you. #NWSL

I can’t believe I saw the Alyssa Naeher goal live and in person

Every time a Mizzou alum NBA player talks, he actively devalues my Bachelor’s degree.

"We're all throwing dildos at women athletes to promote our memecoin" really puts a fine point on not just how sexist, mean and stupid so much of right now is, but also the grim degree to which we're just inundated with Stuff a 15-Year-Old Dipshit Would Think is Cool. A confederacy of Beavises.

I know a lot of you have already heard or read about BDS Movement's call against Microsoft, and felt weird and bad about it all, but decided to move forward as normal because of some degree of ambiguity. "What service is Microsoft providing?" Here it is, clear as day. A direct line to death.

Jonathan. India! FINAL (10): Royals 5, Guardians 3 #HEYHEYHEYHEY

A lot of older adults forced a war on universities because that’s where their kids realized their parents were evil.

About 99% sure this violates the Olympic charter when it comes to government interference!!!! Also I’m going to be sick.

Rich Hill time in KC Let's GOOOOOOOO. Immaculate Grid KING

got this quote at a neo-Nazi event at the University of Florida in 2017, & in the nearly 8 years since it goes viral like this every few months — I suspect because it's a pretty good summation of where the GOP has gone

Somehow people don't connect history with the present, nobody thinks it's weird to find a stone arrowhead in a backyard. We live in a country built atop an apocalypse.

i think that if you are an upper income writer living in a major urban area complaining about “the laptop class” — really, if you are a knowledge worker of any kind complaining about the “laptop class — you have an obligation to quit your job and go work in a factory for a year

I’m going to remind everyone again that the two Black legislators who were the first to look at these facilities Are under federal chargers for trying to inspect them ( while the head of Dems also Black said it was distracting)

He was admitted after he fell and injured his arm. But because there are absolutely zero transmission protocols in hospitals and they let disease fly around and don’t require masks he got Covid there and died. This is not a unique story. Last I read 30% of Covid cases are hospital-acquired.

"America First" means paying the people who refuse to do the jobs that need doing to arrest the people who are doing them. Every ICE Agent and prison guard could be out building houses or harvesting food, but they would rather kidnap and abuse the people doing the honest work they won't do.

The worst bill in history just passed and this is Bluesky's explore page. Now I know that it might not seem like it matters But Elon Musk destroying twitter, destroyed our ability to quickly mobilize and apply pressure. And that's what Musk wanted.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

fuck every single person who voted for this monstrosity if any of you still have any sort of conscience left it should eat at you for the rest of your lives kicking millions of people off of health insurance to fund the american gestapo

Say what you will about Trump threatening to strip citizenship from his critics and have immigrants put into concentration camps in a swamp, but he never did anything truly power-mad like forgive student loans.

anyone actually counting on Collins and Murkowski in the year of our lord two thousand and twenty five has entirely lost the plot they all hate immigrants more than they love anything else and they know in the end their base does too

they can scratch Lia from the record, but they can’t take away what she actually did in real life

Any Dem focusing on talking about tax cuts for the rich now instead of "President threatens to arrest Democratic Nominee for Mayor of NYC while celebrating opening of Florida Concentration Camp" is not paying attention and is not fighting for you and your safety.

Demand an affidavit ballot and submit it. Your vote will count.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

It's understandable we all mostly take it as a given that Trump doesn't bother to adhere to Constitution or the laws passed by Congress, but it is still both (a) absolutely necessary for our democracy and (b) good political strategy for Dems to file articles of impeachment over this.

even after an incredible day of protests, it’s impossible for me not to end it by thinking about the murder of rep. melissa hortman and what it portends.

The idea that this political violence is the consequence of people on both sides cheering it on seems like a sympathetic point but just doesn’t hold up to history. In my adult life, I’ve seen people on the right do everything from kill politicians to kill regular citizens, and it’s shrugged off.

I can’t physically be at any protests today but be safe everybody! No Kings!

Removing all my sports apps so I can live in peace until my favorite teams start to win again!!!!

It’s so much worse this time. It might not be clear if you don’t live in LA, but the supposed “riots” are tiny. They’re nothing like George Floyd in 2020. Protests are happening in a few blocks downtown and as resistance to specific ICE raids. This is 100% pretense for fascist subjugation.
