What a disaster NO MORE BILLIONAIRES

Trinity College chapel, pastel. I'd forgotten about this one. Spotted when looking through photos of paintings on an SD card. I think this one is oil pastel but I'll have to find the original to be sure. #art #Cambridge #pastel

I picked the most likely candidate for anti-Christ (symbolic, not real). After reading about Thiel, I picked him. Then I found out he is obsessed with the idea and does lectures to identify the anti-Christ. He thinks it is globalists, like Greta Thunberg. These men are both dangerous and insane.

Palantir sells AI tools that help law enforcement agencies like ICE analyze massive amounts of personal data. It's a big reason why it is quickly becoming the most dangerous corporation in America.https://youtu.be/x_VwyhErd88?si=4Ptdx0tQBOBOUin1

Jack, we know what is happening. This trend is international and it’s a replay of the 30s. Patterns. This is the same play from the 1930s. Europe has major problems with the far right too. It is an international trend among democracies. See this thread for the proof. bsky.app/profile/thor...

YVW! Jews have a long history of resisting the Zionists, starting in 1948, when Hannah Arendt, Einstein & many others compared the newly formed Israeli government to the Nazis in methods, structures, organisation & social appeal. global-politics.eu/albert-einst...

I can't wait until the United States cleanses itself of all the ugly traces of Donald Trump. Take his name off buildings. Remove all the tacky gold bric-a-brac from the White House walls. Bulldoze his vulgar ballroom. Restore MLK, Jr Day and Juneteenth at parks. #Fumigate

Sam Bates, known as SMUG, Australian-born, realistic street #artist. This one is in Glasgow. In the comments, I've included different views of this piece, as well as some other pieces of this hyper-realistic street artist. #StreetArt #WallMural #murals #UrbanArt #art

How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!! No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

North Carolina-based graffiti artist JEKS ONE is known for his hyper-realistic portraiture & mastery of spray paint. (Check comments for a different view of how this mural looks on the street). #StreetArt #murals #WallMural #mural #art #artist

The arts and the sciences are lovers

Mamdani: Oftentimes when we win elections, we tell people to go home and just trust us. But the message really has to be that we want you to come along with us… That’s something we’ve been looking to share with New Yorkers: We want to not only win with New Yorkers, but also govern with New Yorkers.

I agree that this is an important guiding insight...and 90% of Americans don't know this. What is the role of journalism if not to hammer this point home until people understand d it?

Love is not the fire that arrives all at once, but the quiet warmth that stays even when the world grows cold.🌹❤️ — Elara Wynfield

I’m so glad I was able to have a cat buddy when I was a kid. When it’s cold and you turn the heating up and they are 🧈 ball, That’s Christmas. Inject. It. Into. My. Veins. 🥰

Never forget.

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

This fascist freak is a danger to democracy.

Nazi says what?

The wholesale murder of people in international waters, without due process, is a crime. If left unchecked, it will lead to more such crimes. This is how things work. Letting them get away with it is the same as giving them permission to keep doing it.

Folks I know things are impossible right now. I just want you all to know that I am also at one with the dung beetle within. We will push that ball of shit together. @daniellemoodie.bsky.social @wajali.bsky.social

The White House just launched a "Media Bias" tracker to supposedly monitor fake news. It's really a hit list of reporters & outlets covering issues in ways Trump & the admin dislike. Flagrant attack on independent thought, freedom of the press & free speech. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
