Man this is getting weird- OK- does ANYONE ELSE *REMEMBER* ENERGY INDEPENDENCE? Or was that just some weird recurring dream I had while in a coma the past 20 years? WTAF? WHY THE FUCK IS NO ONE EVEN BRINGING THIS UP? WE. WERE. SCAMMED. #MSNOW #CNN @normornstein.bsky.social @brianbeutler.bsky.social

“We can disagree and still be friends.” Yeah, about whether pineapple belongs on pizza. Not racism and homophobia.

I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve been called a deadbeat dad, or lectured by the social media trolls & bigots about how all Black men abandon their families. The truth is, I’ve been married to the same queen for nearly 30 years, and together we raised two brilliant children.

At least you should find comfort in the fact that the leadership of the United States is as stupid as the majority of its citizens*. wait. wut. *White citizens

There are SO MANY brave & incredible people here on BlueSky: famous; anonymous to all but their loved ones: geniuses & experts & novices & activists & philosophers & multiple generations of ordinary people who simply care a lot about human dignity & democracy. Thanks to all for being here. 🙏🏻

That’s why they want to privatize things like medicare, public schools, roads, fire & police, water, municipal services etc. Need to charge humans more just to stay alive.

Exactly! If AI and robots are going to do all the work, how do consumers earn money to pay for AI and robots and the products they produce in this so-called “Age of Abundance”?

FYI: in 2025 the US EXPORTED more than 10 Million barrels of oil/oil products - A DAY. "The total value of US oil exports in March 2026 was approximately $10.66 billion." - in a month. ---

Recent incidents at the White House Correspondents Diner and the White House point to just how abusive this country is. It’s not conspiracy, those men have untreated mental health issues. Anyone obsessed with guns and murder is not well, regardless of the motivation. This country made them unwell.

A friend of mine, who served in the military, once chastised me for thanking him for his service on Memorial Day. He explained the day is meant to honor dead service members, to which I responded, “Well, the day isn’t over yet.”

“I did it all for the cookie, the cookie” 🎶🎵🎤

Meanwhile, Louisiana Republicans are presiding over one of the worst Black maternal and infant mortality crises in America. Where are the bills addressing that very real problem? Black women in Louisiana account for roughly 36% of births, but nearly 58% of pregnancy-associated deaths.

I used his shampoo by accident and now he’s watching me closely to see if I’ll start drinking from the toilet.

If you see strangers wearing a mask while traveling and it makes you this irrationally angry, maybe worry about your *own* mental health for a sec

"Freedom is not a slogan; it is a sacred trust paid for by heroes." Thank you for your service. 🙏 #MemorialDay2026 🇺🇸

Trump called fallen service members "losers" and "suckers" — according to his chief of staff — he accused soldiers with PTSD of not being "strong," demeaned POWs, and insulted Gold Star parents & a widow. When he pretends to honor service members, don't believe it.

Wow. The Tech Broligarchs own Fox now, not just Murdoch.

AND NOW it looks like he, his associates in Congress & the entire Trump organization must be heavily invested in the U.S. oil industry, so as he flip-flops on his war on a daily basis & gasoline is $5 a gallon or more, U.S. oil companies EXPORT OIL to make up for oil that is no longer available.

You can never make an analysis of the oppressed in any aspect of their lives and leave out the oppressor ….

Just crazy! I don’t understand it😳

Yeah St.Albert. Nice. #ForeverCanadian

Today we pause to honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to freedom will never be forgotten. Let us remember the families who carry their legacy and the empty seats that remind us of their ultimate sacrifice.

Hopefully, funded by seizure of trump’s ill gotten gains.

Such an amazing weekend of films & friends at #FastNet2026 in Schull, magical West Cork. Now I know why everyone falls in love with this place! #FastNetFilmFestival #WestCork

Our athletic #DailyZiggy back in fine form, doing some rock climbing at Devil’s Glen waterfall. Adventures are his jam. #DogsOfBlueSky

WTF are they talking about? My clock & calendar are not cooperating! Please! How DO YOU "give yourself some extra time?"🤔

BOYCOTT AMAZON AND THE WASHINGTON POST AND THE LA TIMES BEZOS IS A TRUMP DRONE MONEY IS HIS ONLY GOD CC KKKARMA

Here's a perfect example of just how f*cked up media are now: They are reporting all about "the symptoms of Sepsis" but didn't say ANYTHING about how important it is to TREAT PNEUMONIA! If you *do not* then you can get Sepsis. Was Kyle Busch seeing a doctor for his pneumonia? I bet NOT.

🤣😂🤣 Yes, we know that "sir." 😂🤣😂

This is a really good piece. It might piss you off, but it's a good read.

Good morning. I'm going to restock my craft booth and then kick back for the rest of the day. What are your plans? Whatever we do, let's not forget that today is a holiday to honor those lost their lives defending our country. "All gave some and some gave all." Have a great day.

"What's THAT? What IS THAT?"🤔

Assassination attempts are political capital now. In the age of victimhood, being the most "victim" wins you votes. Sad to say, but here we are.

The tech bros gave us crypto currency that isn’t currency, artificial intelligence that isn’t intelligence, and prediction markets that are inside-trader scams. On the other hand, they have given us gigantic data centers that employ no one and destroy communities. So there’s that.

It's bad enough that Trump plays us all for fools. But, according to this post by Iranian News Agency (FARS), Trump is playing his own base for fools. This is going to get interesting. Grab some popcorn and enjoy...

Seventeen years without raising the federal minimum wage is unacceptable. Working people deserve a real living wage, protection from wage theft, and job security that puts families before corporate profits. rooseveltinstitute.org/publications...

People saying that users prefer the bubble of BlueSky to the feral viciousness of Twitter - well...yes. In the same way I prefer a restaurant where the staff are nice and the food is good over one where they stab you with forks while serving bowls of cold piss.

Anyone else just going to skip all July 4/250 celebrations, large & small, this year? I will go to any and all ethnic festival & art festival, but I cannot celebrate the slow death* of my country at the hands of stupid, corrupt pieces of shit. *Which we can reverse if voters stop being idiots.

To all these politicians saying they are going to read the Epstein list in Congress. Fuck you. You aren’t going to do shit. 🖕

BREAKING FIFA World Cup hotel cancellations are surging as global fans ditch the U.S. Main reasons are soaring costs, visa bonds, and Tr*mp’s dictatorial behavior.
