Let's hope...

I wonder if they saw that coming

This is fascism.

Awaiting day when Trump and everyone directly involved in causing these deaths by shutting down U.S.A.I.D. (and so many other deaths) when he and his principal cronies are arrested and charged and must stand trial for Crimes Against Humanity. #ImpeachTrump

Nova Scotia Liberals urge government to prevent HRM infant feeding clinic closure reported by @mmughees.bsky.social

“We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves.”

And right on cue, here come all the Media Think Pieces on why actually we are all bad and stupid to even hope for a better, kinder world.

You had me at "the fall of tyrants..." Happy Supermoon, tonight. 🦊

Reposting to correct an error: trump admin is quietly gutting 13 buildings and about 100 laboratories at Goddard campus that has been instrumental to Hubble and James Webb telescope missions. Staff say they’ve be locked and told to move equipment. Anything left behind will be thrown away.

Requiring cyclists to come to a full stop at stop signs just slows drivers down. I know because I, the canonical rule follower, come to a full stop, and then I have to slowly accelerate when it's my turn. Same with making cyclists dismount to cross the crosswalk - much slower than riding across.

Thoughts of a dear nephew in Japan and loving all these designs. (Cc'ing you, @wayneford.co.uk!) ✨

A universal truth acknowledged...

Snorted aloud at the wishful thinking in this headline...

Just saw the film adaptation of that genius Helen Macdonald's 'H is for Hawk' starring Brendan Gleeson and Clare Foy might release in theatres where I live as a wee gift for me for my January birthday. Thank you, Cosmos. If you haven't yet read the book: fly. Fly and hunt your own copy down now!

Good day to New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani! ✨

free buses with nobody under them!

The lesson here is have good principles and stand on them. Stand for something that isn't power!

Sing it! Zohnran knows #TransRightsAreHumanRights! (And as a single mom, I'm over the moon for all single moms in NYC and immigrants and Black women and everyone needing better recognition, better support. He was elected by fine people who stood up for everyone and showed up! Congratulations, NYC!)

always a good (and important) reminder..

Fingers crossed! Big ❤️ to NY and NY'ers. Inspire the entire nation by demonstrating how collective resistance to fascism and protection of freedoms, rights, and upholding the constitution is done. How it's the only way forward under this current 'administration.' #VOTE

This 100%. "Vote for me if you want the inevitable military occupation to be as painless as possible." It is the argument of the French far-right in 1940.

Archaeology isn't just about what happened centuries ago. It continues to explore the story of humanity up to the present day.

This is fascism.

Happy 16 years of looking at the stars, @gutterbookshop.bsky.social!✨

A fine, soft night... 😬

‘Study after study shows that students want to develop these critical thinking skills, are not lazy, and large numbers of them would be in favor of banning ChatGPT and similar tools in universities’, says @olivia.science www.ru.nl/en/research/...

Hallo en welkom! 👏🏻👏🏻✨

Fund reproductive journalism that's already having a legal and social impact; really excited to watch @autonomynews.co grow!

Obama: They never miss a chance to scapegoat minorities and D.E.I. For every problem under the sun. You got a flat tire? D.E.I.. Wife mad at you? D.E.I..

Amen.

For the day that's in it...

I love this: 'a hot water bottle of a dog' 🐾🤎🖤🤍🤎🖤

JD Vance claims that diversity weakens unions, as people end up distrusting each other and not organizing. Let me tell you two menswear stories related to this claim. 🧵

Disappointingly little media attention being paid to this alarming new study. Instead, we're hearing about Bill Gates "tough truths" [read b.s.] downplaying the climate crisis. We are living in #DontLookUp

My wee plea to not insult the character of Tony Soprano (nor the highly talented James Gandolfini who played him to perfection. RIP) Even this fictional mobster possessed more moral backbone than Donald Trump or any of his corrupt cronies (Vance et al.) Soprano was capable of feeling guilt/regret.

“How did the Super Pandemic of 2026 start, Grandpa?” “Well, Timmy —“

So dispiriting to witness how much WaPo's truth has died.

Yes! Especially during elections! #VoteEarth

Over the moon. Congratulations to President Catherine Connolly and the Irish people for voting her in amidst a rise in global fascism and increasing health and climate crises and chaos. This honestly gives me hope. Thank you, Éire! 💚
