Sign from Minneapolis No Kings rally on 18 October 2025 that reads: Actual patriots with multiple arrows pointing downward to indicate the protestors.

I was thrilled to see a “Portland protest frog” almost immediately upon arrival at The Commons! 🐸✊ (There were other great costumes—inflatable and “regular.”)

Always an enjoyable evening in the presence of @garygulman.bsky.social! Thanks for an amazing show tonight! (I love knowing we share a favorite childhood book!)

Hard to tell if this person is meant to be pointing up at the monument or sieg heiling it. Since this is coming from Drumpf, I’m going to assume it’s the latter.

@jaketapper.bsky.social Seriously, WTF? You’re not holding Trump to even a scintilla of the standards you held Biden to with regard to his age/health. Hacks gonna hack (and grift).

I would counter that the latter are not actually historians. It’s the same as calling a pundit a journalist. Too many people don’t understand the difference.
Screenshot of a September 28, 2025, Threads post from @abrxs.bsky.social that says: There are two types of historians. Those who want to record what actually happened. And those who have an agenda and want to selectively use history to advance that agenda.

Shoutout to my husband—a man of few words—for today’s TIL. Showed him the post below, and he informed me he already uses this Outlook feature to avoid having to type replies! 😦🧐🤣

This! I’m well aware of white deadbeat dads—and even moms. I’m sure this asshole is, too, but doesn’t paint “all whites” with the same brush.
