You know, if Amazon wanted to control how many books people purchase on #stuffyourkindle day, they could figure out how to put limits on free books. Not lock out everyone who participates #fail

I appreciate liberals suddenly caring about disinformation again, but those of us that've been tending this home fire for the past four years are gonna need y'all to recognize the covid disinformation you need to undo in your own mind if you want to stand in solidarity with disabled people.

A holiday that's boozy for many people is a good time for this reminder . . .

Do not ever — not one time, not for any reason — pressure someone to have a drink of alcohol that they don't want.

Not ever, not one sip, not under any circumstances.

I've written extensively at PROOF about the recent revelations by Elon Musk's racist father Errol—who it turns out he's in regular friendly contact with, contrary to his public claims—to the effect that Elon has deliberately hidden his fringe-right politics from American audiences for three decades.

Republicans want to control the flow of information to disconnect the public from the realities of their harmful and dangerous policies, like abortion bans, happening in our backyards.

Good piece from @lebassett.bsky.social on investing in local, public journalism and staying informed.
I wrote about this dystopian week in Republican attacks on the news media, Texas & Georgia choosing to bury abortion-related deaths, and what’s at stake if we just looks the other way as the GOP slowly gains control over the flow of information:

You'll miss the free press when it's gone
Republicans are suppressing stories on abortion-related deaths and attacking news outlets to try and control the flow of information. We really shouldn't let that happen.

I was out curing ballots in
CA-45 with my dear friends, Suzanne & Linda.

We raced to the office to drop off affidavits & made it before they closed & then saw this beautiful statement & when Suzanne who is also a refugee read it, we broke down & cried!

Congrats Rep Tran, we're so proud of you!
