For the love of Bill Snyder, Avery, RUN!

Very cool.

Thank you - gracias a José Escobar Molina, you're a true American hero. On all of our behalf, I hope you win this case.

This is really encouraging. And, it's the way community, business, and the public sector should be advancing together.

I'm showing my age (& my dad's). Dad's popping that eight-track of either Earth, Wind & Fire OR Santana into the stereo.

Happy birthday @nilerodgers.bsky.social! In your honor the R&R Hall of Fame should (finally) induct Chic.

To the Black women in my life: please advise when it’s time to burn it all down. I’m there. ✊🏽

Word. ✊🏽

Note to self: if in the Southern Caribbean, do NOT book a charter boat cruise.

Just because elected leaders SAY "the left supports and perpetrates political violence," does not make it true.

The Founders must be weeping over this abuse of the 1st Amendment.

I care about democracy. Be aware.

I am admittedly old, out of touch, & not a gamer by any stretch. So, I found this extremely thread enlightening in trying to understand the situation, symbolism, & lack of media interpretation of the current Kirk (& broad political violence) situation. Maybe it'll help you too. TY to the posters.

There are very, VERY few people who are equipped to talk about this shooter correctly given the brainrot written on the shell casing. You have to understand so much of online culture to get it and also understand how that culture is both connected to and separate from real world ideological spaces

I oppose violence, political and otherwise. This is not the way to disagree. I don't wish death - or any harm - on people with whom I disagree. Sending calming and healing energy to Utah Valley University & the Kirk family.

Gee. Call me old fashioned (or just old). But, I went to college to broaden my perspective and to learn about knowledge that was different than anything I had been exposed to in my upbringing. If your belief system is so fragile that it cannot be challenged, perhaps they're not beliefs?🤷🏽‍♂️

The Chiefs zone coverage is to blame for this. Are our DBs other than McDuffie that bad? 😡

VERY good post. 10/10

💯

For those of us, like me, who believe in the ideals and the potential of the democratic republic and the US experiment, this is a blatant and LOUD indicator that we are failing and need to work harder and smarter to get back on track.

👀

So, don’t call privilege privilege when you see it? Same with food insecurity, incarcerated people, and involuntarily detained/confined people? Next it will be pesky words like due process, habeas corpus, free speech, democracy, elections …

Hey hey hey hey - my dream of a Royals v Brewers World Series lives!

Woah! Senator Hagerty (I was not familiar with him) is really advocating for novel interpretation & application of the 3/5 clause? That's the first I'm hearing something like that from a sitting elected official. Is that in the Project 2025 2nd Edition?

He's going to appoint Stephen Miller to oversee this, isn't he? This is going to be like Joseph Goebbels writing Germany's history (had he & the Nazis prevailed).

I got so much time today for Gavin Newsom‼️🤣

Question for any attorneys or advocates to opine: what recourse does Velez or do any US citizens (like me, or others) who are wrongly detained, abused, and held against their will have vs. ICE, DHS and this administration? Surely, we won't just let this happen to us, right?

It is really WILD to hear, to watch, and to read all of this performative (I'm pretty sure it's performative) fear of cities like DC, Chicago, LA, Baltimore, Oakland, NYC, etc. from folks to justify the further militarization of these majority minority places. And THESE are the alpha males?

This is some really immoral, I'd even say evil, policymaking. We need to change the majorities in the House & Senate to whittle away at this horrible wealth transfer.

We should have a serious public dialogue about what constitutes an emergency. This is like the twelfth "emergency" declared by the administration. If everything is an emergency, then nothing is.

I love when ethnic food discourse mashes up with discussion of proper grammar.

(preemptive apology for my dad humor) President Trump, if it ain't baroque, don't gild it!

If I were, hypothetically, going to visit Dublin, Ireland very soon for a few days, what are some "must see" items I should visit? I love food, music, culture, social justice, walking, and great sense of place. Thanks for any tips you may offer.☘️

Happy 60th birthday to one of the most monumental civil rights & pro-democracy policies in US history - the Voting Rights Act. Also, happy 50th to the Language Minority Amendment to VRA. We must work hard to defend democracy and to stop the erosion of our collective rights under VRA.

Now he's messing around with my favorite sports star ... fellow KC Current fans, take note.

This is troubling - especially since we're celebrating the 60th Anniversary of the Voting Rights Act this year. When the current majority in Congress, the President and SCOTUS are all aiming to kill VRA, the voice & power of voters of color is suppressed. We must stand against this move.

A modest silver lining in the current storm clouds.

A key difference between "good cops," and "bad cops," is the realization that police have to have community trust to do your job. This is a textbook example of how to betray, to destroy, and to eliminate ANY trust police may have with the community. It's mean, abusive, and retraumatizing.

Thanks, Trump! (wait until you get a load of rising restaurant, food, hotel, and child care costs too)

This is a horrible violation of Martin's 1st Amendment rights. But, I feel a tiny bit of hope each time I see one of these bad actors attempting to stop folks from video recording. It indicates that SOMEWHERE in that conscience, they KNOW what they're doing is wrong. Keep exposing their wrongdoing.

Didn't Speaker Johnson say something to the effect of, "I won't let the House become a political spectacle" earlier this week? What is this new January 6th Committee if not political spectacle?

We should not look away. Pressure Secretary Rubio and POTUS to intervene. Feed Gazans, now.

The assault (maybe erosion is a better way to describe it?) on the 1st Amendment continues. We have to fight back. Don't give in to the mafia-like coercion tactics.

🤟🏽 Thank you for the memories, Ozzy.

As a practicing Catholic, I fully endorse this job termination & applaud whatever organization previously employed this racist. Free speech does not mean speech without consequence.

It's arguable whether we human beings still have a soul. But, for cryin' out loud we need to drop in as much food as is globally available to Gaza. Worried about Hamas stealing it? If it's so abundant, it won't matter. What matters is the lives of all of those people - no exceptions.

Wow. We really ARE trying to destroy tourism to the US.

THIS should be the illustration next to the definition of White Privilege in the dictionary. They're cancelling Colbert. I wonder what they'll do with Star Trek?

Before anybody praises his "humanity," for apologizing for bombing a Christian church, why doesn't he apologize when he destroys mosques, schools, and hospitals that provide worship space, education, and health care for Gazans? This apology rings VERY hollow.

Desaparecid@s - Duele compartirla, pero examina esta lista si no te has enterado de un ser querido ultimamente. It pains me to share this, but check the list if you have not heard from a loved one recently. Our government is "disappearing," folks a la Central American and Southern Cone death squads.
