Hello, Bluesky! Allow me to introduce myself.
I’m MMorzz. I love comics, movies, books, & music. Sometimes I write about them. My idea of a good time is a long hike, followed by reading comics & books to the sound of jazz, big band music, & good old rock n roll, & ending with damn good movies. 📽️📚💙

Basketball coach is asked about his player leaving the squad ahead of a semi-final to be at the birth of his child and his response is perfection.

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s a talented politician but not otherworldly or one in a billion, he’s just a competent guy with popular ideas who ran against an entitled piece of shit and to me it’s a lot more optimistic to imagine 1000 campaigns like his than to view him as a unique phenomenon

Bluesky suspended Sarah Kendzior today for no reason whatsoever. She just shared excerpts of her articles, which were as always incisive and not offensive at all. Hey @pfrazee.com this is super not OK. I know her- we've interacted a fair bit via chats and her work is essential.

Reading Frankenstein for the first time. We all know that the doctor’s name is Frankenstein but did you know the monster’s name is Frank N. Stein? Super confusing.

Today is a great day to make sure you cancel ANY recurring donation to ANY sitting Democratic senator and especially to ANY of the party committees.
Yes, they will notice. Yes, they should all be afraid. Send a signal that they'll be held collectively responsible for this utter betrayal. 🧵

Just as accusations of “virtue signaling” are made by people who don’t do kind things.
People are being accused of "reading performatively", that is reading in public as a way of showing off or 'looking cool'?
That sounds like an accusation made by people who don't read.

One thing that's abundantly clear is that they're not taking any of this seriously enough, which - along with history - tells us that if/when they're back in power they will just pretend that everything is back to normal and that there's no need to fix the broken system.

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.
If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Oh! Also the score is GREAT.
