Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

Just in case any journalist or editor reading this is tempted to minimize Trump's Reiner post because it's a "showbiz thing" and "real" stories are happening: No. It's a President thing and a decency thing, and if you don't understand that those things are newsworthy, you are failing in your duties.

I have posted my way to some pretty impressive victories. I have built amazing communities. I have raised a lot of money. I have found ways to help people in tiny ways and large.
But like Greg says, I don't just post rage bait. I post practical shit & joy.

btw i don't agree with folks who say posting here doesn't matter because every time i help organize an event, people show up in real life & tell me they heard about it here on bluesky
it absolutely matters if you make a habit of organizing & sharing practical suggestions of stuff to actually do

I keep thinking about how terrible it is that so many people will be losing their health insurance in January due to costs and cuts. I was rejected from insurance once before the ACA [preexisting conditions]. I was hospitalized that year and it almost bankrupted me. We need universal heathcare ASAP.
