1000 stories to be honest. People are in motion everywhere. Folks in Minneapolis continue to hold each other thru this moment - every day I see comrades raising thousands to keep neighbors houses. A friend adopted a class at her local elementary school & throws monthly parties for kids, no fanfare.

In about a year and a half I have gathered about as many followers here as I gathered in about ten years on twitter. So this place is pretty cool as far as I’m concerned. 🤷‍♂️

Nope, not surprised at all. 🧐

A minority of his voters perhaps weren't paying attention to anything he represents or says and only cared about prices/economy but the majority knew what they were signing up for. I will die on that hill.

Prime Minister of Spain Pedro Sánchez: “The Government of Spain will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket.” 🍿

The use of "voter" without a specific qualifier has to stop. This wasn't a large, vague, diverse collective making a decision to vote for Trump. When you point out that voters said this is what they wanted, say specifically which voters.

Oakland residents who have spent 10 years trying to stop construction of a coal export terminal in their city are pivoting pursuing a new campaign strategy that involves air pollution regulations. More here - oaklandside.org/2026/04/08/n...

Blah blah blah.

Weak sauce.

There's a marked difference in the statements that Democratic electeds are putting out now compared to this morning. Good.

Senate Republicans refused to convict Trump after Jan 6. Republican SCOTUS appointees gave him immunity. Republicans in Congress today stand idly by as he unleashes death and destruction across the globe. We are now at the whims of a mad king because GOP leaders have refused to constrain him.

I don’t know if BBQ sauce and sharp cheddar is the best flavor combination in the world, but it’s damn sure in the running.

We’re soooooooo far past what would have gotten any other president impeached and removed.

If ever there was a point in this country that Americans needed to stand up for their Democracy, their country, one another, and the world, that moment is now Freedom, Democracy, and peace require sacrifice; either we stop this now, together, or we lose everything Make your choice

Donald Trump is an unhinged warmonger and war criminal using violence for personal gain and profit, while innocent people pay the price.   Congress must reconvene to pass the War Powers Resolution. The 25th Amendment must also be invoked. Congress has to do our damn job. War powers and Impeachment.

Tucker Carlson issued a more direct and clear repudiation than 98% of elected Democrats.

Do you know how EXTREMELY FUCKED UP SHIT HAS TO BE for me to be reposting Tucker Carlson positively???

People in Iran are in imminent danger from this threat. People in the US are not. Please keep that in mind before you post. Thank you.

The President is openly threatening genocide. A crime against humanity. He must be removed from office. The 25th Amendment must be invoked. If not, Congress has to do our damn job. Speaker Johnson, call us into session. War powers & impeachment. Remove this man from office.

Congress could end all this today.

Donald Trump is unfit to serve as the leader of the free world. That's why I have cosponsored H. Res. 939 Articles of Impeachment to remove him from office.

Email, text, call, post demanding every member of Congress impeach & remove Trump NOW!!! Show up at their offices & at Congress en masse!!! Protest loudly until Congress grows a pair & fights for us like they all promised! If we don't Iran is over. We NEVER should have let him get this far!

Perhaps Americans should take to the streets. Drop what they're doing and protest, right now. Flood the offices of their representatives. Those that can't march, get on the phone. Show some solidarity with the citizens of Iran..they are not their regime. They are families, children, elders, innocent

All of us are dissociated and dissociating to make it through today. I hope you give yourself and others grace.

By the way, am now 7 for 7 on my 30/30. But it is unusably awful stuff. If I can mine a half dozen lines by the end of it, I’ll count that a success.

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. What about painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them. Via @usa.streetsblog.org @nyc.streetsblog.org

I mean this how it was when they left.

Lynne Knight is just such a great poet.

At some point, I’m going to write a book about the intersection of metaphysics and ethics. Just warning you.

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

Currently reading “Against Purity” by @alexisshotwell.bsky.social. Just started so I’ll have to report back on it. But it’s off to a good start.

But also Chapter 2, lol.

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

An opposition party would not be on vacation right now. They would have coordinated message to the public about the fact that a President in cognitive decline is threatening more war crimes. They would be BLASTING the message on all available platforms.

I mean, how hard could it really be to just put like some water in the to go coffee cups in movies and TV shows so the actors can interact with the weight and feel of a full cup?

Lynne Knight is just such a great poet.

Donald Trump wants to spend $1.5tn on 'Defense'. $1.2tn would provide Universal Healthcare. No more stupid wars and no more poverty and death. Get a President who will choose Healthcare and not War.

So shocking this hot no play, lol.

Is Chapter 18 of Chuang Tzu my favorite text ever written? Maybe. Right now, it definitely is.

Very excited about this. @versobooks.bsky.social is one of my fav publishers. If you’re into social thought, check out their list.
