Slow it down.

Because the Resistance is upon the road. Seriously, drive below the speed limit and slow it down. Atheist biologist dotard. My favorite tree is sassafras.
He thinks he will get it together?! This sounds like he's a slumping young prospect hitting .190 and you're wondering whether to send him to the minors & the team's already out of the playoffs, so what the hell, maybe next month the kid'll hit major league pitching. WTF.

What's up with "when one door closes, another one opens?" because that makes no sense. I'm optimistic but I need my aphorisms to be logical, and doors are not dominos. How about "when a trump tries to close a door, you wedge a book in the jamb and get your friends and push that fucker back open?"

The resistance is contagious. Speaking the truth in public might get zero likes, but you will embolden someone. Spread the love and fight the power.

Compromise is for choosing a restaurant.

There is no compromise when one side is cruel and capricious.

End the madness, with your overwhelming uncompromising voices.

Do not yield to tyranny.

The ever present @thebikinglawyer.bsky.social and we’re thankful for that.

We continue to beg drivers to put their phones away while behind the wheel.

This is pledge week, but I'm not asking for money. Please give instead 5, 10 or 15 mph off your usual driving speed.

Save lives and save money (in fuel, tickets, insurance) by driving slower.

Slow it all down. The resistance is upon the road.

Mr. Booker's political stunt may have showed intellectual and physical stamina, but how could he be possibly be our president? We'll need to see some cruelty first.

Congratulations to Judge Susan Crawford on her victory, and to the people of Wisconsin for electing a judge who believes in the rule of law and protecting our freedoms.

Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

Slow it down, like Gandhi's march to the sea.

Slow it down, Mark Twain on a Mississippi riverboat.

Slow it down, like a tuba ensemble wading through mud in a funeral parade.

Go gently, for we are in crisis mode in a world of climate change and trumps. #resistance

Sometimes when I see an oncoming vehicle going far too fast, I flash my headlights, as I gentle reminder to slow it down.

After they pass, I can see their brake lights in my rear view mirror, and I'm quite sure they're thinking, "Thanks, buddy. I do need to drive gentler."

How many days does a new Bluesky user need to wait before they can post photos and a banner and a badge? The "dusty mint" and "woodland sage" are swell, but I'd like a change.

Hegseth, Waltz and company texting war plans to a reporter on signal is just the tip of the iceberg. This whole administration is full of incompetent, inexperienced, and unqualified clowns. Our national security is compromised in ways we’re just beginning to understand.

The cabinet and the GOP Congress is stuffed with hollow goons, but that may be what gets us out of this mess.

When we millions fill the streets and shut down the country until the current occupant leaves, they will follow. The spineless will fold when the pressure is great enough.

Please slow it down, but please also save the info on your favorite legacy page before it gets scuttled by a bunch of trumps. #resistance

Thousand of protesters took to the streets in Turkey last night to protest the arrest of Ekrem İmamoğlu, the mayor of Istanbul and Turkish president Erdogan's main rival.

Love to see it!

Remember that the Deep State conspiracy myth is rooted in truth.

The truth that there is indeed a vast network of kind, progressive people conspiring to improve the world.

Let us conspire further in government, in churches, in Kiwanis, in Lions Club, in PTA, in Scouting, in Little League...
