As the USA races towards fascism I like to distract myself by following closely and interjecting myself into the bromance between @tristentaylor.bsky.social and @boerewoes.bsky.social.
The love/hate between you two is basically the only things keeping my hope alive.

Now that Trump has shut down the government, Democrats need to be loud and confident in our argument.

No 75% premium increases. No lawlessness.

That’s what we are fighting for. The people will be with us. But only if we show strength.

This (sweeps arm around), all of this, is to cover up for rapists on the Epstein list, isn’t it?

Not only are we losing our rights and flirting with fascism but even our romance novels look awful. Like if Democracy is going to collapse could we AT LEAST have spicier novels to be distracted by?

We did little but sat around hoping for a hero to save us from a collapsing Democracy. We realized too late that we were the heros the USA needed. We now wring our hands, “but what could we have done!?” we cry. We could have tried. I’m scared and you should be too.

These are some of the bravest women on Earth. I’ve been in awe of them for years.
Hear their message. It is real — they’ve been in Putin’s prisons. Tell your kids and grandkids to hear it. #PussyRiot

Americans have bystander syndrome. Most just stand around waiting for someone else to do something. No is coming to save us.

Trump issued an executive order invoking a wartime law the Alien Enemies Act of 1798—a little-known law—would allow the government to deport without due process.

Shut it down, Dems! Vote, “NO!” We don’t collaborate with Nazis! A yes vote is you getting on your knees. Fuck that.

Damn it you guys. This coup could have been cool. Musky could have given us all Teslas, space suits to wear around town, and a free supply of Katamine and we could just be chill. But noooo….we’re doing this instead.

Whelp, America had a good run. Thanks Dump voters! You’re going down too you know.

Remember how the oligarchs in Squid Games sat and watched the games from their safe, luxurious suite? They ate, drank, laughed, and raped while they watched people die. Well, umm, that’s what’s happening in the USA and we’re taking it. Cool. Cool. Cool. Here’s to a big cash prize at least? 😬

And look at the Dems sitting so nicely. Their scowls and little signs are so powerful. Very mindful. Very demure. What resistance you’re showing. You are losers. All of you should have not gone, and engaged with your constituents instead or followed Al Green’s lead. Thank you Representative Green!

Kootenai County, ID standing up and getting loud! Kootenai County has a very long history of being a safe haven for KKK, Nazis, and White Supremacy. The brave few continue to fight against hate.

‼️Heads up!! These are my old student loans. They were forgiven because I paid on them for more than 25 years. The account numbers have changed.

I’m guessing these will be reopened in new accounts and debt I owe.

Screen shot all your student loan stuff tonight! Especially accounts showing zero!‼️

What’s the motivation? Musk is a gamer. He’s wealthy beyond comprehension. He has so much money he is bored; there is nothing left for him to accomplish. Our institutions and our government are merely his end game. He just wants to see if he can do it; he’s entertaining himself and winning.
