I wish I could tell people like me, who first came to Bluesky and felt pummeled by performative scolding, that now it feels a lot less like that and a lot more like that brief window when Twitter was pretty good: useful, occasionally ridiculous, a place to discover new thinkers & writing

Lots of regular degular, never-done-an-activism folks have been activated in recent months and are working alongside a bunch of seasoned, die-hard, been-tired-for-ten-years-or-more organizers, and you don't know all of those stories bc most people are moving with a bit of discretion in these times.

Every day Mamdani comes out and is like "hey guys, I turned off the orphan-crushing machine. Literally just had to flip a switch. Took less than 5 minutes."
After decades of dem leadership pissing and moaning and fundraising about how complex an issue it is and how difficult the process is etc

As someone who received 30% of their emotional sustenance from 2011 through 2014 from Justin Vernon's cover of "I Can't Make You Love Me," I am once again ready for Bon Iver to carry me
Bon Iver is releasing a live version of "Naeem (Can't You Hear Crying)", now only on Bandcamp. 100% of proceeds will be donated to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota. Join in to support those organizing, protecting, and sheltering against ICE in the state.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Once in a century political opportunity here, if only there were a party to claim it
"According to the…annual Harris Poll, for the 1st time, a majority of Americans believe billionaires are a threat to democracy. A remarkable 71% believe there should be a wealth tax. A majority believe there should be a cap on how much wealth a person can accumulate." www.nytimes.com/2025/12/14/o...

I think the reason so many of us resonate with Mamdani's victory, despite not living anywhere near NYC, is because it's a deafening rebuttal of every centrist political strategist looking down their noses at us for thinking "You Deserve Better" is childish wish fulfillment.

Feeling ground down by the fascism, sure, but also by the bombardment of tendentious propaganda. Jeans for white titties. The "performative male" thing, a clear psyop by the laziest intern at the Heritage Foundation. In 7 months the only acceptable attire will be a t-shirt with a big handgun on it.

Every person who said 'states rights' wanted Black people excluded from public life. Every person who thought it was reasonable sounding and did not know that was being fooled.
When they say "no trans athletes" they are setting the stage for no trans people everywhere. It's already playing out.
