Hey corporate media,

Thou shalt not spend thousands of hours on one CEO’s shooting and only one hour on a classroom of children.

In Iceland, on Christmas Eve, people give each other books so they can spend the evening drinking cocoa & reading. It’s called, Jolabokaflod, the Christmas book flood. I’ve never been more in love with Iceland than I am right now ♥️♥️

I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it a thousand times more: We are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian. — Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

If you're more upset with Biden being forced to consider the extraordinary step of peremptorily pardoning his own officials then you are about Trump appointing someone who’s promised to use the federal govt to exact personal retribution for Trump, then you need to think a little more critically.

This is exactly it. The steady onslaught of dumpster cabinet announcements is a strategy to overwhelm and defeat us, to engender hopelessness.

Don’t let them run such an easy play on you.

CALL AND EMAIL your senators and congress members. Tell them to do their job and reject these people.
Trump's Cabinet appointments are shocking, but part of a plan. We should be wary of shock, which excuses inaction. We have to get through the surprise and the shock to see the design and the risk.

A key asymmetry of this era of American politics and how it’s covered is that Trump is expected to do bad and corrupt things, so when he does it barely qualifies as news. But Dems are expected to be beyond reproach, so anything that seems even slightly suspect is a huge scandal.

Reminder that over half the country did NOT vote for Trump. And this is what the map really looks like.
This map illustrates the truth of the 2024 election results Republicans don’t want us to know. They continue to push a lie that America is mostly red. Does land vote? No. People vote. Fact: Republicans don’t represent the majority of we, the people.
Share it.

Gee, could it have been the rampant sexism of millions of Americans instead?
NBC is reporting a record breaking Black Friday. Seems like just a few weeks ago, no one could afford eggs or gas.

We now live in a world where stuff like this is barely a blip on the media coverage radar screen.

There is no one easier to con than a MAGA.
This is what was served to people that paid to have thanksgiving dinner with Trump and Elon last night at Mar-a-Lago 🤣

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. Here is a picture I took from a train window in Switzerland.

There is so much beauty and delight in our world.

I’m 45 minutes into a podcast with the Harris campaign leaders—first interview they’ve given, with @podsaveamerica.bsky.social.

There are four of them being interviewed, and not *once* have even one of them said a single thing they should or could have done differently.

I think it speaks volumes that right wingers criticize bluesky for being “liberal” and “left wing”, when it’s really just that hate speech isn’t allowed.
