I stopped using Google Search as soon as I noticed the annoying AI summary. I don't want to contribute to global warming any more than necessary, and I don't care what their AI has to say. I'll use my BRAIN to assemble my own summary.

Your Mother’s Day weekend reminder that the so-called “party of family values” has historically blocked: -Paid family & medical leave -Universal childcare -Universal pre-K -Expanded Child Tax Credit -Programs to support reproductive health Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

Any day I spend protesting is a good day. Today I got to sing as well. My friend brought her Raging Grannies group.

This is amazing. Brilliant way for people to comprehend the enormity of the files with these visuals. Glad the survivors were acknowledged with the bright light of the candles 🕯️

A message from Mary, a 72-year-old Amazon worker from North Carolina projected onto Jeff Bezos’s $120 million penthouse before tonight’s #MetGala, chaired by Bezos.

No U.S. distributor would touch this documentary so now we're giving you free access May 1-4. Including interviews with historian Heather Cox Richardson, Rep. Jamie Raskin, and Harvard professor Steven Levitsky. www.democracyundersiegedoc.org/signup

“We just defeated [Speaker Mike] Johnson’s efforts to sneak through a 5-year FISA authorization tonight,” Democratic Representative Ro Khanna said. “Now, they will have to fight in daylight.” trib.al/Ugw87Rt

How embarrassingly senile must Felon47 get before his cabinet and the Republican party decide that he reflects poorly on their goals to subjugate the masses?

Dr. Rümeysa Öztürk has returned to Türkiye after completing her Ph.D. program in child study and human development. Last year, her life was disrupted when ICE targeted her unlawfully with detention and deportation in retaliation for an op-ed she co-wrote in support of Palestinian human rights.

It's real cloak and dagger stuff when Republicans call for a 2:00 am vote — in this case, about the regime's ability to spy on us. They always do their most evil deeds under the cover of darkness.

Mood, every single day.

THE FIRST DOMINO HAS FALLEN Time to hope for a change toward better. Hope is a responsibility. You cultivate it in order to share it with others. It cannot be a private possession. It only blooms when given away. Hope is the prelude to action. So every morning, arise & hope, & go from there. 🫂🩵🌟🌊🗽

Are you a cis woman who is fed up with transphobes using you as an excuse for their transphobia…? Now is a good time to sign the @nionwomen.bsky.social petition against this. Only 1,600 signatures to go to hit 100,000!

Sky News: While Trump, the so-called leader of the free world, sits rage-posting on SM like a man screaming into a void, France, Japan, Philippines, & UK are quietly, methodically cutting deals with Iran. The world has moved on & US Mainstream Media is not covering a bit of this. #sheshed

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

Our elected officials shouldn’t trust any ‘ceasefire’ announced by Trump. Tell your senators and representative to return to DC, reconvene Congress, and end Trump’s illegal war with Iran.

🌮 🌮 🌮

Surreal.

How it feels doing literally any task right now.

These ordinary people are willing to sacrifice themselves to make the point that they and their country deserve to exist. They didn't start this war, their government didn't even start it. 47 ordered the military to commit war crimes because he's trying to distract us from the EPSTEIN FILES!

I hope 47 TACOs again, but when he's playing chicken with nukes, the stakes are too high. None of his handlers seem willing to take away grandpa's car keys. THEY ARE COMPLICIT IN THE WAR CRIMES.

The horseradish is beginning to poke up. It has naturalized at the base of a silver maple tree near the enormous compost pile.

TRANS DAY OF VISIBILITY

Heated Rivalry stars Hudson Williams & François Arnaud issued a joint statement condemning hateful comments online, writing: “Don’t call yourself a fan if you share racist/homophobic/biphobic/misogynist/ageist/ableist/parasocial/bigoted comments of any kind. None of us need your hateful ‘love.’”

Katie Couric confronts Gavin Newsom on his shifting views on transgender youth www.advocate.com/pol... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

Oregon lawmakers passed House Bill 4088, which strengthens legal and privacy protections for transgender patients and providers. The legislation also limits state cooperation with out-of-state or federal investigations of gender-affirming care #NOH8

Sad and beautiful at the same time: U2's protest song, dedicated to Renee Good.

😥 😔 😟

The system is working as intended. I'm tired of centrist democrats who are more beholden to corporations than the huge number of average people who voted for them.

Robert Reich: "Four of the corporations whose CEOs flanked President Trump at his 2025 inauguration have now disclosed that they collectively received $51 billion in federal tax breaks in 2025, much of that from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA)." #ProudBlue

I needed some good news. Star Trek is my happy place.

This is overt racism. Full stop. There’s no ‘misinterpretation’ and no excuse. This is who he is, who he’s always been, and why he should never be anywhere near power again. And there’s a reason the tapes from The Apprentice have never been released.

Trump's secret weapon is that he gives the very worst kind of people permission to be the very worst version of themselves. But the right never understands how anything works. The more extreme they get the more certain it becomes US society/economy will crash & burn.

There's nothing that has happened so far in this admin, that I didn't warn about in excruciating detail in the 1st admin.🤷🏿‍♂️ The last post is from when we narrowly avoided this in 2020... only for centrist dems to screw it up again via racism, and put us right back here for 2024.🤡 They don't learn.

To recap: The people who spent years calling drag queens and librarians “groomers” and complaining about the “deep state,” are now protecting the group of mega-wealthy pedophiles and sex traffickers running our country.

Ya, homoeroticism was only introduced to Star Trek in 2026 by the woke Starfleet Academy...

January seemed to last three years. Then suddenly it's already February.

I said, “I’ll be right back, going to the bathroom,” to my doctor, but didn’t specify which one, so now I’m at home.

Interesting ideas for anyone trying to figure out the MAGA mindset or the abusive mindset; they seen to be identical.

i continue to ask what people are still doing on the fascist white supremacy platform that generates child pornography

Mar A Lago face IS like a drag queen look Over-emphasizing characteristics some consider feminine is the beauty ideal of the MAGA crowd…and amping up features is drag queen artistry I think that’s part of why drag queens trigger them. 🤷‍♀️

To Gregory Bovino: This is what brandishing a firearm at a protest looks like.

An article that seems to strongly imply, if not prove, that capitalism is the perfection of slavery.

ALEX PRETTI’S PARENTS: “He was a VA nurse who cared about people deeply, and he was very upset with what was happening with ICE... kidnapping children, grabbing people off the street — he knew it was wrong. He loved this country." (H/T @katiecouric.bsky.social )

Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS. Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies. AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS. Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

If you didn't catch this segment of @maddow.bsky.social's tonight, I recommend you watch the whole thing. We're seeing both utterly sadistic mass scale horror alongside incredibly inspiring mass displays of humanity. The regime is weak. The people will win.
