Instead of responding only with thoughts and prayers, Australia will respond with laws and regulations. Because, unlike the United States, it values the lives of its citizens over any sick adulation of firearms. The 1996 Port Arthur massacre led to immediate, sweeping, bipartisan gun law reforms.

Nick, 32, was taken into custody Sunday night, the records show. The records accuse him of “gang activity” – a felony – but do not elaborate, and they indicated that his bail was set at $4m. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/de...

@ossoff.senate.gov is the only Democratic Senator up for reelection in a state Trump won in 2024 and that makes him MAGA’s #1 target. He needs ALL of our support. secure.actblue.com/donate/ossof...

Rob Reiner had one of the most wide-ranging audiences of any American filmmaker. People rewatch his films with nostalgia and joy. They quote them with parents and pass them down to children. Ignore the other one's commentary. It's like a black hole commenting on the sun.

Things out there are cruel and terrible, but here, have a kitty responding to the sound of the lid on his treat cup. Thank you for all the good wishes, friends. It's uncomfortably cold in Iowa right now, but all your cuddles, treats, and scritches have been delivered and received with joy.

I happen to think that Rob Reiner had a much bigger cultural impact than Charlie Kirk did.

I’m a gun owner. My entire inheritance from my dad was guns. That said, we should regulate guns.

American citizens are not required to have “their papers” on them.

The regime is attempting to make it legal for banks and credit card companies to discriminate against women and minorities, making credit access harder. There's just 1 day left to comment. Reject this premise based on the Equal Protection Clause of the Constitution. Comment here: tr.ee/I9k7aFPzg3

“Missouri’s referendum system exists to ensure lawmakers can’t insulate themselves from accountability. When 300,000 people sign their names to challenge a law, they aren’t offering a suggestion. They are exercising a constitutional veto belonging to the voters alone.” ~Jason Hancock

A sad, sick country that does not have the will or intelligence to address a problem that only it is subject to.

www.npr.org/sections/sho... "Women in their 30s and 40s had more mutations than people in their 70s and 80s from the general population," says Shain, whose research focuses on the biology of skin cancer. "They somehow were able to cram in two lifetimes' worth of UV damage in 30 years."

This is the Texas state Capitol. They still let in trans women with ids that matches their gender identity. So this isn't even keeping trans women out. These things are completely unenforceable except through fear. www.texastribune.org/2025/12/12/t...

The triple Trump negativity is real. Also real — regurgitating the negative news nonstop is psychologically harmful. Stop. Breath. BlueSky folks are evolved and educated. That’s why we chose it. Appreciate the good also going on.

"Gia" has worked in Watsonville California strawberries for the last 13 years. "Right now, we're planting strawberries. I get very tired from bending over and walking all day. It's even harder after it rains and the ground is all muddy." #WeFeedYou

Tyson is shutting down its Lexington, Nebraska plant in January 2026. That’s 3,200 workers gone in one shot, the largest plant shutdown in company history. Blame Trump’s tariff chaos and the lowest cattle inventories in decades. Tariffs jack up costs. Supply shrinks. Plants close. Towns hollow out.

This is a definite MUST Read by @philmandelbaum.bsky.social It’s appalling and angering how the quisling Pedo temporarily residing in the American WhiteHouse and its racist misogynist clan is wasting so much taxpayer money AGAINST We The People. #Pinks #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory

DHS agents in Minnesota tackled a middle-aged woman to the ground for recording them and asking them who they were. She was shackled, bruised, arrested, and jailed for 4+ hours. They cut off her wedding ring. No charges, just the threat to keep quiet. 🤬🤬🤬

The EU triggers emergency powers (under Art 122) to permanently immobilize Russian assets to help rebuild what Russia destroyed. This is European sovereignty in action.

An American who absolutely agrees. No one should come to visit the US, until we sort out our problems. And that is going to take a long time and be a very painful experience. 🗽🐸🫡

DNC Chair Martin: There's so many wins I'm excited about. In Georgia, 2 public utility commission races happened a month ago. This was the first time in nearly 20 years we elected Democrats to statewide office in Georgia. As we go into a a critical year, we have wind at our back.

Meta has removed or restricted dozens of accounts belonging to abortion access providers, queer groups and reproductive health organisations in the past weeks in what Repro Uncensored call one of the “biggest waves of censorship” on its platforms in years.
