Don't give me hope! Are we finally swinging out of this spiral? Can government finally help people again?

This is the stupidest thing. I love it.

I'm sorry but this is objectively hilarious The other side says "Stop blocking free school lunches"

JKR and her new org apparently helped get the new Amnesty International report on how TERF organizations destroy lives taken down from their site. Well, guess what? The Streisand Effect is real. Here's the entire report in a thread. Read it. Share it.

I’ll try a pagan friend, thought I, since Christian kindness has proved but hollow courtesy.

The Platner dialogue is interesting. Leftist I know have been dragging him since before I knew who he was. Centrists I know seemed to also be wary but mostly weren’t following because I don’t live in Maine and he was still a long shot. Now everyone is pointing fingers at each other.

I wish someone would really just take the time to make the most cringe thing. Like just beyond lean into it all even beyond it being full circle. No parody. Let's really see it. Let's actually give these dipshits what they want to see and complain about happening. Force them to make the play at 2nd

the "fertility crisis" is more accurately described as "the nationwide reduction in teen pregnancy"

Your politicians will not save you. Consumer and worker reform is not coming. Civil rights protections and expansion are not coming. They’ve had decades to do it like they had decades before Civil Rights movement and the Great Depression. Your politicians will not save you…unless you force them.

Graham Platner Clarifies He Covered Penis With Tattoo After Learning About Its Troubling History

Tomorrow is a big day in Chicago! It's the groundbreaking ceremony & celebration of the historic Chicago Torture Justice Memorial. The Memorial is the first state sponsored monument in the nation to commemorate law enforcement violence.

Miserable man! Oh! most contemptible and worthy of all scorn

Some fellow leftists have expressed disappointment over Mayor Wilson's decisions with surveillance. I'd like to remind them: - SPD contract is through '27. - She's been in office 6 mo following centrists. - City has a major deficit partially because of the previous points. And it's ok to be mad.

a victim's statement is evidence.

Them: Asks me to provide critique of research in key area I am vocal about and have some degree of expertise. Me: Does so. Them: Not like that! You're just stubborn! This is what you should have said! bsky.app/profile/bret...

a great resource, worth the read! the cramming of these products into every facet of public life is deeply insidious in multiple levels, including lingual!

I finally did it. Only A9 complete for everyone. Still need Necro, Silent, and Regent on A10 but the A9 barrier is over. I still don’t understand the A9/10 Silent. I watched a lot of streamers run poison and just couldn’t cope act 2. Shivs carries me after figuring out how lean to run them.

psa for cis folks: every single "legitimate concern" about trans people (bathrooms, sports, blockers, etc) is a made up astroturf by the far right. if you buy into any of it, you are an utter chump and a useful idiot for racist pedophiles

Feeling discouraged about my disability progress this weekend, specifically my mood disorder and feelings of isolation. I understand my short comings but the last 2-3 years, I’ve prioritized and struggled to build social connections of any frequency both new or bolstering old ones.

Taking a break from posting about trains and local government to pipe up and state that it is our patriotic duty to dismantle the Roberts court.

I have sometimes pleased myself

The most punk rock thing so far at #Pridefest isn’t a sponsored event. Cal Anderson Cage Match has some crazy shit going in the skate cage, all of it pretty queer. Who gave that man a megaphone?! Will the spliff be found?! What are you doing if you don’t at least stop and look? #Seattle #Pride

In man or fish, wriggling is a sign of inferiority.

Some people have a pretty wild idea what a Mayor does and especially in the first 6 months of a term after budgets passed with the previous admin. Yeah, sweeps are fucking awful. SPD and KCSO contracts go through 2027 and both are needed for negotiations to break up holding the city hostage.

The Storm are selling $25 tickets ($28.90 including fees) for their next four home games, including their July 4 rivalry matchup against Portland.

I think it’s interesting we frame sci fi extraterrestrials as monstrous for the idea of combing space for resources indiscriminately and as refugees in the opposite. The reality of space travel’s scale and danger makes both the same.

Im so sorry to ask but could anyone help with food tonight? I am almost completely immobile this evening CA: $helpmarghoul V: @marghoul

One of the more gratifying exchanges but don’t want the threads to get lost now they realized how sad they looked when I presented the receipts. bsky.app/profile/sick... bsky.app/profile/sick... TLDR: Centrist getting off on punching down didn’t like being wrong.

I know the past is self selection bias but a crucial problem today is lack of critical thinking. People seem to love hard fast general rules when in reality most things require nuance and context. You can show unquestionable data in face of some old adage and people will think you’re from Mars.

Crazy Socialist Mayor of Seattle Says Cars Not Allowed to Drive on ‘Trains-Only’ Train Tracks: tinyurl.com/3hrm25vc

As crazy as it was that it happened and as awful as the street level light rail overlap has proven to be, I do hope that elderly person who drove the car up Mount Baker station got the medical help they needed. They were clearly in distress and confused to get THAT far.

Seattle white liberals: how come things around here aren’t getting any better? Also Seattle white liberals: let’s keep doing all the same things that have been proven over and over again to not work and then blame someone else for made up problems instead!

Thou shalt see my back parts, my tail, he seems to say, but my face shall not be seen.
