I guess I’m weird because I don’t like it when the president of my country addresses the leaders of our allies the way an abusive father menacingly addresses his children.

This is so powerful. Inspired by the March of a Thousand Robes in Poland, retired and sitting judges in the United States walked down the streets of Columbus, Ohio to stand up for the Rule of Law. #JusticeinMotion

Rather than steal from @hulcricket.bsky.social I will credit her

Reminder that "real Maine guy" was recruited by two consultants who were not from Maine

It’s a really funny runner how every issue in American history that apologists claim “no one” knew was wrong has a corresponding Quaker going “this is wrong”

I’m SO proud to call USAF member Jason Watson a friend of mine. He was arrested yesterday for protesting in his uniform against the administration. Bravo sir. #Impeach #Convict #Remove.

The fact that FOUR sitting Supreme Court justices were willing to greenlight Trump's racist attack on the Fourteenth Amendment's guarantee of birthright citizenship is a national embarrassment. Tear down the institution, it is beyond saving.

They can’t answer this question because there is no example they can give. Video: buff.ly/Jo6oKqn

So he's gonna advocate for all people with depression to get four months off for rehabilitation, right? And he's gonna tell RFK jr to fuck off with his quest to limit the medication that Kean is very clearly taking to be functional?

This essay is stunning in its moral and intellectual clarity, and also in its gorgeous sentences. I'm not sure if I'll read the book, but I'm so glad I read this review of it. lareviewofbooks.org/article/dang...

my oh my This essay/review is… …stunning (ie, may leave you stunned) via the craft with which it’s Virgil walks you — firmly but w/ the care of one who’s felt the blow — through that tall grass where you’ve hidden those political suspicions which are, by their nature & by yours, un-entertain-able.

My dear lord. lareviewofbooks.org/article/dang...

One last thing: people always try to think of scenarios where it’s fine. I strongly urge people to watch this video to get in your head all the ways that the police will use what you think are harmless statements to convict you of crimes you did not commit.

Just when you think it can’t get more weird….. Fencing going up around Reflecting Pool

He's not lying. These things are not only illegal but immoral as well #USDemocracy

We used to have presidents who exhibited character, honesty, integrity, kindness, and empathy. Those are all things that I think all of us long for once again. We were reminded today by Barack Obama that we can have that.

when I got laid off from Vice, I later found out that members of the c-suite had awarded themselves bonuses that were higher than my annual salary. I hope that answers your question.

If you talk about Michelle Obama today, please make it about this video

SINATRA OF COURSE

The L Train Brass Band leads a Knicks celebration on 5th Ave in Park Slope!

Seattle elects a socialist mayor, wins the Super Bowl NYC elects a socialist mayor, wins the NBA finals Win your city a major sports title with this one neat trick

Please god let this close the portal to Hell the Cubs opened in 2016

Imagine if we treated Trump the way we treat people who miss the recertification deadlines for government assistance programs.

Live: Donald Trump’s Name Come Off the Kennedy Center as It Happens #blogpost

Millions of taxpayer dollars were wasted so Donald Trump could attend a non-deciding NBA Finals game, shut down several city blocks, & kill what would have been a lucrative night for dozens of businesses, just to be loudly & repeatedly booed. And the Knicks lost. New Yorkers hate him even more now.

Trump attends Game 3 of NBA Finals -> Knicks lose first time in 3 weeks. To recap: •Trump sells weird steak -> failure •Trump takes over casinos -> failure •Trump launches university -> failure •Trump wins US presidency -> failure •Trump attends Knicks game -> failure Everything Trump Touches Dies

Make it make sense… Trump says he needs a $200 million ballroom, bulletproof glass, and a security fortress to keep him safe at the White House. Then he hops on a plane and heads to a packed Knicks game in New York.

ABC making some choice to show the grifter-in-chief during the Star Spangled Banner.

Yes. Every time you see the word “remigration“, replace it with the word “pogroms”. Because that is what is at the end of the road that the far-right and its enablers are walking us down.

What section of Bluesky is talking about 1) Great these two were held accountable and 2) why are the women the only ones fired? That's the section I want to talk with.

Around 80% of the psychiatric hospitals in the U.S. that have violated the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act in the past 15 years are owned by for-profit corporations. Only a few have faced any repercussions from regulators. (Published Sept. 2025)

Not wearing full tactical gear and gas masks, not sporting pepperball rifles, and brandishing grenade launchers for tear gas, turns out to be super helpful to keeping heads cool.

He was fired for sticking up for junior staffers. Be like Scott. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/02/b...

I feel like this clip of people firmly chanting “You are Nazis” at a diligently neutral grip of cops is a good illustration of the dynamic. The cops actually trying to deescalate and not engage is the closest these protestors will get to an apology for the wanton violence unleashed on them.

“Liberal democracies around the world are now among the most unequal societies ever to have existed in human history,” says political scientist Jeffrey Winters, author of the new book "The Blind Spot: How Oligarchs Dominate Our Democracies."

Congress must investigate Trump regime’s malfeasance, incompetence, and dishonesty. If war crimes were committed, the officials responsible need to be held accountable. And finally, Congress needs to pass legis to prevent presidents from unilaterally blundering into unnecessary, ill-advised wars

Trump was best friends with the world’s most notorious trafficker in young girls for more than a decade. He has an extensive record of abuse and assault. He was even caught on tape bragging about grabbing women by the p***y This perv is the heart of the Epstein files. Release them now

I know women sacrificing themselves now for cis white men running for office who have done harm. When can the silence be broken? How can we help women share their truth & be cared for? How many people truly support the silencing of women for the cause?

Seriously fuck Trump.

It’s time. Meet in Selma. Saturday, May 16th. blackpowerwarroom.com/dayofaction/

A lot has happened, but not much has changed.

Think polluters don't have enough money to pay for the damage they've caused? Think again.

This isn't my field but reading scholars who study race has been completely transformative to how I see the world. It's one of the world's most difficult topics, done by the bravest people, toward the biggest problems we have. It's relevant to everything

Watching David Attenborough get highly deserved praised for his century is reminding me: There is no crisis of masculinity, as such. We have plenty of positive male role models in our society. They just aren’t being pushed into young men’s feeds by nihilistic ad networks and social platforms.

When elected officials do something blatantly against the public interest, they can be voted out. The same is not true for Philly's school board — so holding them accountable is that much harder, @lisamhaver.bsky.social says:
