This right here.

My dad once broke his arm while slipping on ice and then finished a full day as a mechanic (went to ER after work). That’s not ideal, but hyping Trump as “macho” is laughable. All he does is whine about how people are “mean” to him.

This is some weak shit no matter who you are.

I can’t imagine posting this without being blackmailed. God, I hope Newt Gingrich is being blackmailed right now.

Stop using facial ID and fingerprint right now to unlock your phone and go with a passcode. Passcodes are protected under fifth amendment in a very clear way that biometric data is not. Just do this one thing real quick.

I *am* alarmed by rising antisemitism--not "on the left" or on the right, but in the air, everywhere. Which is *why* NYT inaccurately describing Mamdani as "anti-Israel" in a news article upsets me. We Jews have real problems. Mamdani, who opposes Israeli Right's idea of Israel, isn't one of them.

Suddenly, when they least expected it, a horseshoe appeared in the heavens. It almost seemed as if socialism had been part of their magical journey the whole time. 🌈

It’s not hyperbole to say that the deaths in Minnesota are on the GOP’s hands. They’ve built this political environment and they’ve allowed a demagogue to spread hate. This is entirely on them.

(Literal) White House social media propaganda source is a neo-Nazi

Really running out of ways to say there's no (figurative) paper walls between these guys.

This post thread is just…sigh. Fucking unbelievable
This is a real thing being posted and circulated by the Department of Homeland Security, referring to undocumented immigrants as “foreign invaders” and urging good Americans to turn them in.

(I’ll leave it to BlueSky historians to find comparisons to WWII era materials.)

I’d normally feel ok realizing that this 250 year experiment was over, which I always saw coming. But now I have kids. And so I gotta actually do shit to fight for them.

Speaking as one parent to another: if you have kids and aren’t ready to riot, then you are a fucking shit parent.

Worth noting LBJ used the National Guard to protect and expand civil rights; DJT is doing exactly the opposite.
“.. It's the first time since 1965 — when President Lyndon B. Johnson sent forces to Alabama to guard civil rights demonstrators — that a president has mobilized a state's National Guard without the governor's request ..”
