Rest in peace Michelle Trachtenberg. In what kind of world does Dawn leave first? #buffy

Important follow-up on my pinned report and my recent post about the takeover at OPM: The Washington Post has confirmed the claims below. There is indeed a takeover of the federal government happening that is being coordinated by people outside the government who have gotten access to U.S. servers.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

Stephen Miller and Homan’s goal is to shock and awe blue cities to terrify whole communities. They’ll deliberately targeting businesses, schools, hospitals churches and other places of worship. They want Americans to be afraid. Mayors and governors must stand up to them. Lawyers get on standby.

WOW! You've got to watch all of this. A priest just confronted Trump's fascism to his face. She's so incredibly brave.

Today, honor a King, not a Felon. #mlkday2025

January 2025 as a meme

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be. You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion. Which is more powerful?

I love all of these. Keep ‘em coming!

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "We have 8,400 firefighters working the lines; 16,000 personnel; 2,500 National Guard trying to address the issue of looting; 750 CHP as we speak; we have the EPA starting to do phase 1 of the debris removal... All of that [rightwing disinformation] is a deep distraction."

We’ve done a lot of things that we’re not proud of but that doesn’t stop us from being proud of and thankful for our heroes. Happy birthday MLK

The only thing happing on Jan 20th is MLK day

The Tulsa Race Massacre was not committed by an uncontrolled mob but was the result of “a coordinated, military-style attack” by white citizens, the Justice Department said in a report. It was the first time the U.S. government has given an official account of the 1921 massacre of Black residents.

LIVE: Local news crew captures fire tornado in LA. The largest of the LA fires, in Palisades, is still only 8% contained. Local news station KTLA 5 captured this fire tornado on its northern flank, funnelling flames hundreds of feet into the air. (🎥 KTLA 5 News)

Whitewashing the uncomfortable parts of the past doesn't just affect Black stories. For example, you can't fully appreciate how a peanut farmer from Plains, GA became a beloved president unless you know TRUE Black History. The unwhitewashed history of Jimmy Carter: A thread.

While we’re banning books… Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar. Be. Like. Finland.

Why are Bezos, Zuckerberg, Musk, Pichai and Tim Cook visiting and giving money to Trump ? Because they are in “The Race “ to become the dominant platform in the world. Amazon/Anthropic vs FB/LLama vs Google/Gemini vs Twitter/Grok, vs IPhones/ChatGpt is the penultimate global power war ever.

We possess the technology to create products that nearly never break. We were doing it in the 70's & 80's. Then came 'planned obsolescence' - intentionally designing products to become obsolete or break quickly within a set time frame. This is that- but in reverse.

Trying to approach 2025 the way St. Margaret is approaching Beelzebub

My grand finale tonight. An image I've dreamed of capturing ever since being a young boy in the 1960s. The iconic Horsehead Nebula. It's taken 4 months since buying the SeestarS50 for the time, location and seeing conditions to be right. Very happy with this. 😊🎉🔭

RIP Jimmy Carter.

This is so spot-on it’s scary.

Jimmy Carter, the 39th president of the United States, has died

Absolutely *no* notes.

This brother Malecule found his happy place and continued to do his thing on the F train, despite being trolled by a drunken fool. Find your inner peace. Don't let anyone stop you. My vibe for 2025. 🙏💙

Speaking of shut the fuck up Friday, I’ve been seeing some people say that the FBI has contacted them for questioning after seeing social media posts, and my extremely urgent advice is that you should under NO CIRCUMSTANCES talk to the Feds without a lawyer.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. saw an 18.1% increase in homelessness this year, with more than 770,000 people counted as homeless.

In 1659, the the Puritans in Massachusetts enacted a law that declared that Christmas was sacrilege and exchanging of gifts, greetings, and wearing fine clothing on that day was Satanic. Anyone caught celebrating was fined 5 shillings. (About 5 days wages.) The "War on Christmas" was an inside job.

Just a reminder: you are NOT unusual, weird, or unlovable if you have: - no one to see on Christmas Day, - no presents, or - no contactable relatives. Very few people live the idealised version on TV. Those of us who live differently—whether by choice or trauma—matter as much.

Merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah and happy Kwanza and just plain happy holidays to everyone who opposes fascism, nazism, apartheid, colonialism and imperialism around the world. To everyone else? Have whatever kind of week works for you.

Oh the shade!
