BREAKING: Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are popping champagne because House Republicans JUST passed Trump’s “big, beautiful bill.”

This bill is a BIG tax handout for billionaires, paid for by ripping health insurance from 14 MILLION people.

We must stop this from passing the Senate.

The representative from McDonald Island has tried to filibuster our renaming of the island but did not have the same stamina as @booker.senate.gov and stood for only 24 minutes.

Incredible. And yet, believable.
The Trump regime has put a 10% tariff on the Heard Island and McDonald which is inhabited only by Penguins. The majestic Penguin has become the first nonhuman in history to enter a trade war with the United States.

@govmaurahealey.bsky.social It looks like a Tufts student was just "brown shirted" by masked federal agents, and ostensibly for simply penning an article. I admit I don't know complete details, but, wtf is going on?! If our students cannot feel safe here, then our institutes of learning are toast.

I, of course, am a big fan of this one, so I used one of my Sora credits to create an AI video of it. Should otter.net go animated?

Check out @otterdotnet.bsky.social , which is a daily history lesson in the form of otter art, that friends and I put together using GPT and some python. Helps me learn the history I forgot to pay attention to in school 😅
