Repression as Rescue: The Authoritarian Logic of Trump’s Early Executive Orders at www.justsecurity.org/121193/autho...

I just overheard a discussion of things people put in their toilet and flush. Having lived in a house with a septic tank, babes, I am beyond horrified. NOTHING goes in the toilet except bodily waste and toilet paper.

The story is not what Kimmel said but what others won’t say now for fear of state retribution. Authoritarian countries thrive on self censorship.

I just cancelled my Disney/Hulu subscription because of their collaboration with the fascist Trump regime. And I won't be going to see any Disney-produced films in theaters for the foreseeable future. If they're going to collaborate with fascists, they sure as hell aren't getting my money.

cancelling Disney+ and Hulu is well and good but it’s not a huge hit on an individual level but Disney adults? people who spend real money at the parks? you guys can make a dent, call ‘em up and tell them your vacation is postponed until they pull their heads out of their asses

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Oh since we're talking about boycotts, way too many of y'all still eat at Chik fil A and shop at Hobby Lobby, two companies whose profits are literally dedicated to killing trans people

This number one tip on this advisory is to set public online profiles to private when facing harassment, which bsky does not allow, and which really should’ve been a feature implemented on day 1.

The President blaming a Holocaust survivor for all political opposition as he gins up Holocaust 2 should be a watershed moment, but it'll be forgotten in an hour.

Mystery isn't a genre I'm super familiar with am interested in trying more of. Are there series that have that Harry Bosch or Lincoln Lawyer feel that have a lot of books and aren't misogynistic/racist/anti-queer/etc? No cozy mysteries or romantic thrillers please.

if nothing else, what is happening right now needs to be a wakeup call for the future that education is not enough. this is all being perpetrated by the first generations to grow up learning, in detail, about genocide in school. education is not enough. you need to hit them until they stop.

Ok. Expand that out to college students getting arrested for protesting genocide. Expand that out to Black people being shot by police because the officer “was in fear for their life” because the Black person wasn’t complying fast enough (according to police)

WaPo just fired Karen Attiah for posting comments considerably more thoughtful than Kimmel's. not sure what's going on at the post but it would in fact be extremely helpful if they reversed themselves, apologized to Attiah, and gave her space to write about why they fucked up.

The reality is ? You should be rip roaring in the streets angry about Kimmel . Not just canceling , but shutting it down And you should be doing that with a full willingness to examine what went SO DAMN WRONG that it got to this point

a key reason they see an opening for such a blatant speech crackdown is that they already did one to Palestinian and anti-genocide activists and it got enthusiastic bipartisan approval

You should already be boycotting HBO Max, but if you aren't, now it's definitely time www.avclub.com/hbo-max-one-...

Just canceled our Disney streaming. Unsurprisingly, tje web interface is broken - but it gave me the opportunity to talk to a really nice cs rep. Him: wow. Jimmy Kimmel is really popular! Me: it's not about Kimmel, it's about the principles of free speech.

The union representing the musicians from Jimmy Kimmel’s band releases a statement calling the FCC’s pressure on Disney “state censorship.”

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

Wait a second. Are all the conservative talking heads trying to pull us back from the brink? Now?

Black women were being fired en masses from journalism from 2017 .

Also, the way these companies are caving to the current administration, I never want to hear anyone gripe about "the liberal media" ever again, because in mass media terms, that doesn't exist.

The liberal outfit that goes back to liberal fundamentals will win. That doesn't mean tacking to the center; it means emphasizing liberty interests against the emerging authoritarian regime, and NOT giving it what it wants.

Reminder that back in 2010, during the Plastic Beach era, Gorillaz cancelled their appearance at a festival in Tel Aviv in protest of Israel killing nine people trying to supply aide to Gaza. Israel has been committing genocide for a while, and Gorillaz have been against it

This man takes better photos on what are arguably the worst days of his life under fluorescent tube lighting than most of us will take literally ever It's borderline faerie glamour, has anyone tried touching him with a horseshoe to see if it burns

The FCC Chair saying “You can deal with Kimmel the easy way or the hard way” is the very definition of a chilling effect on speech, and a good indicator the First Amendment is a dead letter in the Trump regime. Free speech is dying in America and none of our free speech warriors seem to care

There are people I can't talk about cuz my feelings could get me fired. Don't guess who. You all know who.

The Dept of Education is now accepting comments on a proposed rule that would overhaul Public Service Loan Forgiveness, and make it too expensive for students to go into work that threatens the Trump administration Folks have til *Sept. 17* to oppose the changes ballsandstrikes.org/legal-cultur...

What the Debate Me bros have done is found a way to filibuster the self-evident humanity of a person or group by making it an endless topic of debate. As Toni said: "None of this is necessary. There will always be one more thing." It's not my job to prove my equality to those who think me inferior

I've been asking "What if today was the freest you'd ever get to be for the rest of your life?" all year long and I really wish more people would engage with that.

Honestly people who believed the initial @wsj.com lies about the bullets just failed a basic media literacy test. The WSJ is just printing white wing press releases and if you don’t know that by now I don’t know what to tell you.

Hey @mythworks.bsky.social! Maybe for the next Wildsea expansion?

Calls to #BloquonsTout (“Block Everything”) went viral in France after the announcement of Prime Minister François Bayrou's austerity budget with its €44 billion in cuts, elimination of two public holidays, rollbacks in public services, and stalled climate investment.

I'm so sorry to hear about those kids in Colorado.

What is your favorite type of tea? Now that hoodie season is coming up, im trying to expand my tea tasting for the season.

This sounds wacky but it is backed up by science.

Haven't eaten since yesterday. Didn't get enough money for groceries like I hoped. Blood sugar is dropping but I'm in too much pain to do more than drink water. I need help. I'm sorry to do this but I don't know what else to do ko-fi.com/A0307Q3
