During this busiest shopping period of the year, we’re hitting pause on purchases from Home Depot, Target, and Amazon. Let’s make our dollars count by refusing to support corporations complicit in Trump’s authoritarian power grab: weaintbuyingit.com/?utm_source=bluesky

It's outrageous that Spotify is running ICE ads. I'm moving to another streaming platform that doesn't profit from exploiting artists while recruiting for ICE. #CancelSpotify app.sosha.ai/s/MKFrr2jc

Holy shit.

Game 7 between the Jays and the Mariners just ran an pro-free trade ad, targeted to American workers, decrying tariffs.

The twist being that, if you don't catch it beforehand, Ronald Reagan is revealed as the speaker in the closing seconds.

What PAC is this? The Province of Ontario.
Ronald Reagan narrates a new anti-tariff ad from Canada
The new commercial is part of a $75 million ad campaign by Ontario aimed at Republican voters.

One of the funniest jeers I heard from a driver going past the protest I was at: "Get a job, you losers!" Um, dude, it's Saturday? (Of course I know plenty of people work on Saturdays. It was just a weak taunt.)

This is correct. Any candidate cynically “triangulating” on trans kids is a non-starter, and now is the time to say so. There’s still so much time to advance candidates that DON’T suck.
I will never, ever vote for Gavin Newsom. Ever, under any circumstances. I don't care if he becomes the Dem nominee, he's still not getting my vote.
On a recent podcast Gavin Newsom tells Shawn Ryan how the Trans sports issue opened the door for him to change his mind on GAC for Trans Youth.

As someone who adored him since 2004 and voted for him 5 times, I can't wait for him to leave office.

There is no way I will be voting for him a 6th time.

Writing my name in cursive on my papers in kindergarten because my older sisters had taught me. My teacher told me I wasn't allowed to do that because the other kids couldn't.
What is, in your opinion, the dumbest thing you were scolded by an adult for doing when you were a kid?

Hey guys- White nationalists have helped a white woman in Minnesota raise $300k after she was filmed calling a five-year-old Black child the n-word.

The local NAACP chapter is fundraising for the boy and his family to get legal help. The least we could do is out-fundraise the nazis.

Shut the fuck up.

That said, how cops pressure you into NOT shutting the fuck up, is by LYING TO YOU. They are allowed to lie, you are not allowed even to be mistaken.

They also will threaten to throw the sink at you and upcharge, meaning 'Hey I could be cool, I don't care about X, so just tell
Please understand me when I say that you cannot talk yourself out of criminal charges. You can, however, talk yourself into them.

"I invoke my rights to silence and counsel and will not answer questions without my attorney present" is the ONLY thing you should EVER say to a police officer, EVER.

Since federal health information is getting harder to come by, I thought I'd share this new resource. Cornell's College of Veterinary Medicine launched an online Avian Flu Resource Center--a one-stop clearinghouse for trustworthy information on bird flu.

I have the Four Nations US/Canada game on. Despite the announcer asking that people refrain, there was still booing. Also, I've never learned the French version of O Canada.

Since I enjoyed watching baseball last season, I'm thinking I should pick a team to root for. Maybe the Blue Jays since they're the closest. Thoughts welcome.
