I just think it's helpful to talk about WHY these Dems keep doing this shit because there is a reason. It's not just they turned evil overnight, or that they're somehow playing 4D chess, or that they're powerless/incompetent. The whole system is designed to MAKE them do that. It's not an accident.

Good morning.

GOOD MORNING 😎

Hold up...we starting a spreadsheet thread?

This is correct, more to come today, but he is nearly $100 million short of his 0.5% commitment. bsky.app/profile/dyla...

It's been a collective and community effort to press the Mayor to honor his campaign promise to public libraries. We're still not there yet. Please follow @nycplan.org if you live in NYC for next steps in the ongoing process to actually fully fund public libraries in our great city.

Thanks for tagging me folks. Just to let everyone know that this isn't an *increase* in the library project. This just brings the proposed budget back to FY26's level. It reverses the Mayor's preliminary budget cuts. HOWEVER, it does not meet the 0.5% benchmark AND it does not keep up with inflation

So important to see this kind of reporting, but it speaks volumes that the NYT put this on the Opinion page (All of the CW for graphic descriptions of sexual assault and torture)

Dominique Ate this up 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 #transrights #protectthedolls

Good squid

Passed my Calc. Exam with a 94, and passed the class with a 93.3. I can’t expressed how relieved I am. Calc. was one of the hardest class I’ve taken, and I had to work overtime to make sure I passed this class.

Dhampir are better.

The insult has been the sheer number of people naive enough to insist these Confederates and white nationalists haven't been in the Republican party since integration.

I hate Mother’s Day so tysm for all the balls discourse today

many adoptees and birth mothers have a rough time on Mother's Day. 🥚

let me know when a celebrity sends a Mother's Day "shout out" to women who lost their children to #adoption.

I have heard a lot of secrets and a lot of sexual fantasies and fetishes in my over 30 years as a psychotherapist And I have never once heard a straight woman searching for a man with humongous testes.

Start subscribing to local events emails again. Label them. Make a separate calendar called Local Events and put some shit you might want to do on there. Then you can toggle it on or off. Also, you can be surrounded by friends and feel lonely. So...yeah. Sorry, I truly get it

You can't learn to talk to people without talking to people. Check your public library events? Yeah, there's a lack of third spaces but there's also a lack of people using infrastructure that's there.

Like every Mother's Day today I am asking that you consider a donation to @nationalbailout.bsky.social to help free mamas who are separated from their families by the injustices of pretrial detention systems. secure.actblue.com/donate/freeb...

There are people who have never ever spent a Mother's Day with their Mamas, for whatever reason. My heart is with y'all on today. ❤️💙💜💖💗💘💛💚

Happy MU/TH/UR’s Day!

No the sailors on the USS Ford already have it bad enough

Hey man...fuck Bernie Sanders.

every orange cat owner recognizes this scene

my birth mother told me that the hardest day of the year was Mother’s Day. 🥚

As an adoptee, I can’t begin to tell you how much I hate Mother’s Day. 🥚
