Can we get this back up?

Recently a story came out verifying that the friends we have appealing for our humanity on Bluesky are real. Saeed in particular has suffered a severe smear campaign on this very site. It's imperative that we show the people who tried to deny his existence that we see him.

Oh cool, sounds like things are going to get even better around here.
NEWS --> An internal Homeland Security memo suggests Trump's use of military for domestic enforcement is about to get worse. It details top-level talks between Defense Department and DHS on what this should look like. Experts say it's alarming.

We obtained the memo:

This is it, right here.

Community is how we survive.
Today, or tomorrow, or this upcoming week: Find someone that needs help that you can help with and help them. Make a point of it. Ask around. We need each other. Let's get in the habit of helping each other, in defiance of the society that seeks to kill us; Being alive is the -most- punk rock thing.

I am absolutely heartbroken for Diogo Jota, his brother Andre and their families. Diogo was celebrating his wedding just last week, this is just fucking awful. My deepest condolences to his wife, children, and their families.

Rest in peace, Diogo. YNWA

Extremely dark that the entire U.S. government is lying down to be steamrolled by something called the Trump agenda for fear of some force called "Donald Trump" while the actual Donald Trump has no idea what's happening
Helluva @notusreports.bsky.social scoop showing that Trump has no idea what's in his budget bill. Seems like something that ought to get a lot more attention.

Also this: a republican house member actually admits that they are attacking medicaid. Yes, they are.

I have a first-world problem.

Jonas Valančiūnas is a Nugget
Aaron Gordon is Mr. Nugget.

They are both my basketball husbands (shhhh, let me have my delusion.) This arrangement worked because I could keep them apart.

NOW WHAT.

Oh look Boring Amy Klobuchar is stabbing workers in the back...
Senator Slotkin has announced her intended support for legislation that would CUT and FREEZE the wages of farm workers - one of the most underpaid professions in the US.
This is just wrong!

Call @slotkin.senate.gov TODAY! Urge her to withdraw her support.

Really bad, y'all. It's been shaky but this, what is getting announced right now?

This is us losing Earth & Space Science in the US.
NASA is being radically reorganized, starting almost immediately.

Host: Are you saying the US did not see intelligence that the Supreme Leader had ordered weaponization?

Rubio: That’s irrelevant

In the kidnapping video I posted above, the young kid in the blue Walmart vest getting roughed up by ICE, is 20-year-old Adrian Martinez, a US citizen who was taken hostage by ICE for speaking up for his kidnapped coworker.
