24 hours and we're 1/3 of the way there already 🥳 #ofmd #theweecon #twc2

Since we're already well on our way, very excited to sit down and do some more plotting and scheming this weekend 🤩 Different venue, different layout, lots of options! #theweecon

Holy shit. The prosecutor who just resigned from the D Minn in revolt against orders to investigate Renee Good after her murder is local counsel for Don Lemon now in Minnesota. Wow.

Republican rule vote FAILS. Republican leaders just tried to use a procedural vote to continue their surrender of congressional powers to prevent Trump's abuse of tariff authorities. Three Republicans, Reps. Massie, Bacon, and Kiley, joined all Democrats to block them.

Here's what DHS doesn't want you to know: Working for ICE is one of the safest jobs in America — and last year was the second-safest year for the agency on record. And the doxxing? It hasn't actually happened even once. The masks are justified by a lie. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-s-mask...

We’re suing the Trump-Vance admin over their so-called “Religious Liberty Commission,” which seems focused on anything but. This unlawfully created and biased commission goes against the religious freedom it allegedly represents. We will see them in court on behalf of a multifaith coalition.

This is prob everywhere already, but it needs to be seen. Art is powerful. youtu.be/G6FuWd4wNd8?...

Trump is badly losing the war over ICE, not just on the streets, but also in the culture. As Bad Bunny shows, this has become a culture war unto itself. Trump-MAGA's initial hubris has been utterly deflated. I've got fresh data illustrating the point. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2062...

our flag means death?? Hell yeah!!! (suddenly looks at you very seriously and holds your hand) but also our flag means live. our flag means hope

the magic of the Muppets is that there are two fourth walls. they constantly break the one that reminds the audience they are performers. they NEVER break the one that reminds the audience they are puppets. this dynamic is the key to their entire comedy style

another year of us not running a super bowl ad

One of our best, the tireless dynamo Florida Representative Anna Eskamani, shared this on another platform. There are victories and the rule of law may be damaged but it is not dead.

One of the first of the immensely popular 18th-century "it-narratives", Chrysal; or, The Adventures of a Guinea, by the Irish writer Charles Johnstone, tells the tale of a coin and the human intrigue to which it finds itself bearing witness: publicdomainreview.org/collection/c...

Just a reminder that the American South is under political occupation, has been since the abandonment of Reconstruction, and is full of good people who have been disenfranchised & must not be abandoned (USA southern states, to be clear)

I stand with County Executive Calvin Ball as he signs emergency legislation today prohibiting privately owned buildings from being used as ICE detention centers. Howard County chose dignity, accountability, and its people. Tune into our event now: bit.ly/4a2VtHw

stede got a pirate ship made and went hey real quick umm can you make like a tiny me in a sexy red coat but i'm just a handle with a knob for a head to open the secret passage to my auxiliary wardrobe

Of all the easy things you can do to help the environment, conserve water for communities not corporations, not perpetuate scams, support the labor and rights of creators... *not* using generative AI is the fucking easiest. You absolutely deserve to be shamed for using it for image and text creation

my art for the 2026 gentlebeard calendar! ed and stede are stargazing for matariki in july ✨ #gentlebeard #ofmd #ofmdfanart @gbcalendar.bsky.social

Behold! A bit more information about The Wee Con 2026. 🧵 #ofmc #theweecon #twc #twc2026

I think a lot about an ed who gets up at 3am every morning to do all the prep work for his tiny side alley bakery, with only the unnecessarily chirpy witching hour radio host for company. And a stede who stops by the bakery closest to his house every morning for a pastry before bed (1/3)

All about this Vonnegut quote.

The problem of ICE/CBP reform is we have a monster rampaging through our democracy and are trying to restrict *which* cities it can pillage and *how many* civilians it can eat. The problem isn’t the restrictions on the monster; the problem is the monster. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/six-ways-t...

Your ability to take absolutely no shit crisply, kindly, and unapologetically will inspire others to do the same.

This is happening 🥳 More information coming very soon! #theweecon #ofmc

Don’t think I didn’t notice the sheer number of you who quoted this with no commentary but characters from Our Flag Means Death looking upset

you personally have the ability to secure elections for yourself and your neighbors.

I know we're all bundles of fear and rage but I am begging some of y'all to "touch grass" and by, touch grass, I mean volunteer as an election judge or with local Dems or league of women voters, FFS. YOU have power. Use it. It will make you feel less scared.

Ian McKellen performs “The Strangers’ Case” speech from “Sir Thomas More” on Colbert.

who in ofmd… *gunshot*

As I report in this piece, a trend is developing: Some warehouse owners have decided against selling to ICE, plainly because the backlash has persuaded them that it would make them pariahs

I'm screaming, why is this so instantly plausible

#OFMDdisastercule postcanon ed tries to explain his relationship with stede to jack. this goes better than you'd think bc jack's already been through this with anne & mary explaining romantic love, so his reaction is along the lines of ok man i didn't know you were a girl that's lame but whatever

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

If you came to Christine Wada’s Interview as a Crew Virtual Coffee Break, looks like we finally know one answer to the question what she was working on with Taika! (Love it!)

BEHOLD so I asked Rhys to sing to me about Ed and Stede and now I'm on the floor and this is stuck in my head

A Nobel Peace Prize nomination for Minneapolis is really a recognition of people power and it’s the first time a whole city has been put forward for the prize.

Don't agree with Cato Inst on much. But: Very glad they have quantified what has been obvious for years.

Can comfirm from MN, as can anyone who lives here, that not a THING has changed except little Bovino isnt peacocking around the streets anymore. And there hasn’t been a third high-profile murder of a white person yet. But the gestapo attacks haven’t stopped. At all! bsky.app/profile/jyse...

The wonderful thing about Tyggers Is Tyggers are burning bright Their tops are made out of rubber In the forest of the night What bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy, Immortal hand or eye Did frame the most wonderful thing about Tyggers, Their fearful symmetry!

one thing the trump era has made clear, i think, is that the american people themselves are far more committed to the values of our founding documents than our elites

I thought it would be good to say something publicly about the Act of Grace Con I am the one who organised a panel about social media censorship and the resulting rise of purity policing in fan spaces - Fuck the (Fandom) Police 1/3

AU where Stede Bonnet spends a weekend at the coast and meets Izzy Hands a historical reenactor who Will Not break character. Stede asks him where the best Sushi is in town and Izzy says he had no idea what sushi is but the mess is where he has all his meals.

read online that someone set-up a premium rate phone number where callers get charged $3.99/ min. then they posted flyers in their neighborhood that said "call this number to report illegal aliens," but the number just puts them on hold with music. so far, they've made $17,000
