Fuckery averted, thanks everyone! Related: if the house leadership is going to talk about stuff that nobody is paying attention to right now do you think we could convince them to ban nighttime fuckery. Just a thought. Nighttime fuck*ing* is of course fine.

www.theguardian.com/society/2025... Yet before Stonewall’s attack on women’s rights, men using the toilets designated for their sex cost nothing and confused nobody.

⚡️Update: Russian missile attack injures 16 in Zaporizhzhia, including 3 children. One high-rise building was hit directly by a Russian missile, Zaporizhzhia Oblast Governor Ivan Fedorov said. Emergency services continue to operate on the scene.

I just realized something. While I haven't been able to watch many #Dodgers games this season, I've been able to watch games 1 and 162. That's not a bad thing. I wonder if I can parlay being the survivor of an aggressive cancer into a cheap full-year subscription in 2026. 🤔

The same party that has continued to authorize and take advantage of the GOP expansions of executive power since 2001 is probably not going to meet your expectations so maybe set them realistically

People, I don’t have to tell you. Watch Al Jazeera. I don’t attach myself to the Ups/Downs of Qatar’s government - but we need their journalists right now.

Seriously you should not be caring what's happening in the other stall in the bathroom. That is their business! Transphobes are nasty.

And remember, artists and creators, your posts get boosted a lot more when you use alt text to describe what's in an image, And simply putting "Yes" is shitty alt text.

Jimmy Kimmel's worst case scenario was moving from prime time to a podcast. Mario Guevara's is being shipped to El Salvador and facing more of the persecution he fled 20 years ago. If that happens, the chilling effect will be impossible to measure.

Fuck the Trumps Fuck the Bushes Fuck the Clintons Fuck the Bidens Fuck the Regime Fuck ICE Fuck the Congress & all those HIDING Fuck the billionaires Fuck corporations Fuck Israel & Russian operations Fuck the Nazis Fuck these fascists Fuck disaster capitalists & all white supremacists

There’s really no elected person in the federal government who is meeting this moment. Not ONE. It requires SACRIFICE. None are making it. ANY elected Senator or Congress person has the chance to be a HERO by leaving their COMPLICIT party and joining the OPPOSITION. LOSE YOUR JOB! GET ARRESTED!

Worth saying each year: MLB totally nailed it with the "every Game 162 at the same time" thing. Today is awesome.

The ONLY choice for my Game 162 outfit!!! Forever grateful to @rotowear.bsky.social & @pitchingninja.com 🫶 Baseball is the BEST!!

In 2021, national Democratic elites tried to paint Eric Adams as the future of the Democratic Party and largely ignored Michelle Wu. What a difference four years makes.

Jesus fucking christ it's about to be October Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

UPDATE: The National Hurricane Center said Tropical Storm Imelda could intensify as it approaches the East Coast. South Carolina's governor declared a state of emergency.

Tried to persuade my mum and sister to get their UK citizenship over lunch (both on settled status). They both couldn't believe there would be a risk, and that they've been here for 50+ years. Even though they admit Farage said what he said, they couldn't take it seriously. I think they should.

Dear all of publishing: i need you to put the translator's name on the cover as well because I do not trust, at this point, that it wasn't google.

As much as I dislike Kershaw now, it was amazing seeing Freddie Freeman go out to get him after Kersh's 7th K to lock him in as the probable winning pitcher. Kersh had the ball authenticated, and Freeman told Kersh he wanted that ball... #mlb #Dodgers

"A GOP-affiliated PAC is sending PA voters a mailer warning that the state Supreme Court 'gerrymandered our congressional districts to help Democrats win.' The issue? The pictured map was not drawn by the Court; it was drawn by legislative Republicans and thrown as an unconstitutional gerrymander."

This.

A soft spoken solo country singer quietly says: "This song is for my wife," before launching into a heartfelt, beautiful ballad. Her voice filtering amongst blossoming trees and into a woodland beyond. People chilling nearby, enjoying the vibes, soaking up the spring sunshine. This is happiness. (2)

"This world that we've tumbled into is a world of fiction!" "Doctor Who: The Mind Robber" episode 3 (1968). #DoctorWho

Guys, alt text is great actually writing in there "they consent" is perfect for non-con fiction

You know, the whole "meet with all the generals, admirals, and enlisted leaders in one place at the same time" looked kind of sketchy, but this makes it all fine and dandy. /s

It's great to see AJ Ellis at a Dodgers game, even if it is to celebrate a MAGA's career. He really got fuvked over when he was traded away, and he should have spent his whole career in Dodger Blue.

thank you very much to all of my online friends who use decent alt text to describe pictures I do not use a screen reader at this time but I have low vision and have a difficult time processing many of the pictures that I'm seeing thank you for making any effort at all to include me, and others 🩷

Be aware that the 'violent extremists' all wear suits and scapegoat the fuck out of the most vulnerable in society

it’s Sunday on bluesky so I am urging everyone to take care of themselves. Take a walk, have a second cup of coffee or tea, read a book, spend some time looking at small poems

It's so clear that there's a huge number of professionals in the US who carry with them traumatic memories of being excluded, laughed at, or looked down up on by the Smart Kids and who have basically made hostility to Smart Kids their entire personality, ideology, & worldview.

ICE just loves to get their riot on. They claim to stand for Law & Order, but give them the flimsiest excuse, like citizens using their Constitutionally given right to peacefully protest, and they can't wait to use their riot gear any way they can. Moreover, ICE must be destroyed.

Harris: “he will send the military after you” Yep. And YOU LET IT HAPPEN. The most OBVIOUSLY RIGGED election to date and you conceded in RECORD TIME. NOT the first. Just the most obvious.

I remember hearing about the “medbeds” thing c. 2016 and that one made me particularly sad, bc like the non-agonist racial holy war conspiracy theories, it’s an insane fantasy about an actual need, in an America with no healthcare nor democratic path to ever having healthcare you dream up “medbeds”

Violet Affleck is to the Covid movement what Greta Thunberg is to climate. Both represent the next generation, are articulate, focused, & grounded in science. That scares people. And there's a gendered aspect to all the vitriol they face

I don't know who needs to see this, but my autism would still be disabling to me even if society were completely reconstructed to meet every one of my social needs. I am not disabled by my autism because of social constructs...

I’m really hung up on this idea that everyone left of center with any kind of platform must triangulate to swing voters in Missouri. It’s utterly bizarre. Politics does not work that way. It never has.

In any other era, an FBI director pushing disproven lies about one of the darkest days in U.S. history would dominate the news cycle for weeks. The fact it barely moves the needle now is terrifying.

Congrats and Thanks to the Guardians and Tigers for ensuring Shortie and the rest of the Trashtros will be watching the entire postseason from home. #Dodgers

If you read the article this was straight up a torture program that also featured a bunch of sexual assault, abuses on a level that one will day be in textbooks with the question how did it go on so long Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Why did Harris concede the election so quickly to the world’s biggest liar, cheater felon insurrectionist? Bc her AIPAC funders wouldn’t let her contest it! Same with Hillary. I would say that’s COWARDICE. Perhaps TREASON. Our elections are bought & paid for but voters take the fall every time.

We've seen a couple snapping turtles passing through the edges of the property in the past week (nowhere near residents). They're on the move this time of year to find good spots to brumate (similar to hibernation in mammals) for the winter. We leave them alone unless they're in danger in the road!

Dear UN, How come you could walk out on NinnyYahoo but not the Orange blob. Is that next year’s program? YA FUCKED UP!

I just checked and discovered that today's #Dodgers v #Mariners game is MLB TV's Free Game of the Day. I know that won't help Angelenos, but if you're away from the LA or Seattle TV markets, you can watch today's game. I hear it's some MAGA asshole's final regular-season game as a pitcher. #mlb

I don’t understand why we can’t acknowledge that multiple things can be true.

Here’s what Repubs have said to Dems: ‘We control the WH, the Senate and the House. And so we drafted a spending bill with what WE want, we did it on our own, we didn’t give 2 fucks about what YOU think or want, so fuck off!’ But a shutdown will be DEMS fault??

The unsung heroes of America: lifelong agency workers at Social Security, Medicare, VA and so many other agencies who are staying there to ensure the American people are taken care of. They didn’t have to stay. They are being worked into the ground. Thank you with all of my heart.🙏

Happy #NationalPublicLandsDay, New Mexico! Today, all National Parks are FREE!  Today, we honor the lands and waters that sustain us. Public lands are more than just beautiful places—they’re where we connect with nature and with each other, with our culture, language, history, and belonging.

I just got cleared by my surgeon for getting the flu and COVID jabs. If I can't get them from my PCP, who I see tomorrow, I'll contact the arseholes at CVS to try and schedule them. I really hate having to get vaccinations (or anything else) from CVS.

Amid an ongoing wave of conspiracy theories and bogus claims about Jan 6, I’ll note this from our reporting: Rioters made all kinds of claims and defenses in court … and jurors convicted 100% of the defendants who went to trial 100%

I regret having to repeat this, but the only lawful and cost effective solution is to provide single-occupancy facilities for users who require enhanced privacy. This was the best practice in the past, and it remains the best practice now. The position has not changed due to Scottish Ministers
