Yes, that was my video in 2016. And no, I can't believe we're here either.

Back to one, everybody!
Looking forward to the cries of "Rigged!" and incitement to riot when they announce who won Pope.

Somebody asked me the other day, "What are you afraid is going to happen?"

We've 2 more days of RedFlag warnings which we're hoping won't impact existing fires or create new threats. Also, we've 4 more years of RedHat Warnings, which we're hoping won't impact existing civil rights or create new threats. We're less optimistic about the latter. In both packing is recommended

I wanted to check out the UX on Leonardo Ai’s new Flow State. This forced me to think about what I wanted to create, which made me ask, "How do I feel right now?"

For five years, I have been covering what is unquestionably the biggest criminal justice scandal in American history.
Today it ended when the most corrupt cop in history took his life.
But it's not over.
A thread.

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who is determined to turn up the volume and EXPOSE all of the brutal, deadly consequences of abortion bans in America.
They're not "pro-life."
They're pro controlling women's bodies.

All of our elected officials need to look at the sheer amount of reasonable people reveling in the death of a healthcare co. CEO, and get serious about reform & regulation. If we can't do it on a National level, then at the state. Let's start with CA @gavinnewsom.bsky.social

It's like I heard in a 2016 video about Trump's win over HRC: "This isn't something we get over, this is something we ENDURE."
@tessrafferty.bsky.social 's video from 2016 rings as unfortunately true in 2024 as it did in 2016. Even more so.

NEW: Porsha Ngumezi is the fifth case we've reported on in which a woman died after not receiving a D&C or its second-trimester equivalent in time, or at all.
Her case raises questions about how abortion bans are pressuring doctors to avoid standard care even in straightforward miscarriages.

Woke up thinking about the right wing comics complaining about cancel culture and how I can't wait to hear what they have to say when the Christian extremists bring back Obscenity Laws.
Or maybe I won't be able to.
Sort of a win/win.

And once again, 8 years later (was it really only that long ago?), Tess Rafferty nails it. And this time, because we've unfortunately had 8 years to practice, she nails it in less than 5 minutes.

So I finally put a few thoughts together on the Event that Shall Not Be Named of 2 weeks ago. Only Bsky only lets you post videos that are less than 50MB & 60 seconds. So enjoy my thoughts, 59 low rez seconds at a time. Part 1.
