Threw my FAFO poster on my Threadless shop with 100% of profits going to the ACLU. So send a "sympathy" card to your favorite Trump voter, wear something nice to your next protest or pass some stickers around to all your GOP neighbors' kids.

BlueSky is where you come to block "The Left" for being just as stupid and dishonest as MAGA.

Someone was injured today playing peek-a-boo.

They’re now in the ICU.

My question is just how culpable are those running interference for Trump? Is there a day when we see much of the GOP leadership brought up on charges as co-conspirators? Or, at the very least, on obstruction of justice?

WASHINGTON NEEDS A SHAKE-UP

The same career politicians who caused the shutdown are now playing games with your health care. Eight Senate Democrats just cut a deal—but Speaker Johnson still refuses to hold a vote to protect ACA subsidies. Tennessee can change that on Dec. 2.

And this is why I remain an Independent and dream for a day when there is a third party that is not made up primarily of either fascist theocrats or well-intentioned incompetents.

Please pay attention to the December 2 election for a vacant seat in the House from Tennessee. Mike Johnson thinks a Republican will win. The Democratic candidate is @aftynbehn.bsky.social She needs money to run ads & get out the vote!
NEW: Few could miss that election night delivered a cascade of victories for our democracy. And while national attention understandably focused on statewide races and high-profile ballot measures, smaller contests carried an outsized impact. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I missed my annual V for Vendetta viewing. Which is a shame all things considered. Particularly as it hits hard this year.

Haven't been in a Target since they shit-canned their DEI initiatives. So it matters not to me if they smile or wear the head of a donkey as they scoot around the store on flaming skateboards propelled by their own flatulence. Racists gonna race... racist... do racist things. Whatever. Shut up.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.

They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.

If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."

🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

I hope to see this on the road. It will be a refreshing change given all the dualies sporting full-sized Trump flags in the area.
We’re told the WILSON COUNTY man who wrapped his van to back @aftynbehn.bsky.social in TN-7 is 93 years old.

Matthew 21:31-32

Sure. Leave it to the atheist to use the bible to point out how stupid this is. It's not news. It's time wasted that could have been used to report on and investigate real issues. Nevermind all the "people of faith" with actual criminal records currently in power.

This. 👇

And another thing. I'm tired of hearing "the bad Christians aren't real Christians." They 100% are. Christianity is self-defined and the "moderates" have ceded the identity to the worst people. Evangelicals do it with Catholics and Mormons (not "real Christians!"). But not Nazis? 🙄

Hat's off to the Shoebacca marketing department. A co-worker recommended them a couple weeks ago and I couldn't remember immediately what he'd said. But I knew it was a clever name... star wars... chewbacca... boom! Got it!

It's about time I start pimping my holiday merch.

But first an amuse-bouche. This is how I imagine things might have gone a couple thousand years ago in a field of sheep near the town of Bethlehem.
