harsh words here on bluesky are better because they also seem tempered by influence of humor like that of The Onion. Superheroes read the Onion and they like this chap, too, obviously.
Interesting that you support onerous government regulations yet you’re also a fan of many superheroes who got their powers from workplace accidents 🤔

Wisconsin AG needs to file suit. Money for voting.
once again, every accusation is a confession. republicans spent 15 years accusing democrats of winning elections by trading cash for votes. now, here we are.
If you don't want to see this horrible garbage happen in every future high-stakes election, make sure it demonstrably fails in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race by helping elect Susan Crawford

President Donald Trump issued a massive anti-voting executive order that sent lawmakers, election officials and voting rights advocates into a frenzy.
And one provision looks like a bid to advance a goal that for years has been a borderline obsession for Trump: cracking down on voting by mail.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.
With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

This could lead to a breakthrough in the composition of the Senate in two years. The Senate GOP ought to be ashamed of themselves in confirming Hegseth. And the vast majority of the J6 pardons and commutations are impossible to imagine explaining to American Government high school students.
By freeing all the J6 rioters, Trump admits guilt that he called them there and incited the violence to stop the certification of votes. It’s THE moat unAmerican thing anyone has done in over 200 years

Massachusetts last year made phone calls from prison and jails free.
It also wiped charges for other forms of communication between incarcerated folks & their loved ones.

The reform would eliminate the exorbitant charges people face to keep in touch with loved ones in jail and prison, removing a heavy financial burden for thousands.
