Taking a break from my usual bullshit to tell you once again that the best thing you can do to fight back over the next 4 (🫠) years is to vote and get involved in local politics. We've already seen how local governments are providing a wall against mass deportation efforts. Flex your power.

Democrats who want to be relevant and have a future with the party, look at AOC, Jamie Raskin, Jasmine Crockett, Senators Van Hollen and even Murphy right now.
They're the ones calling it out, refusing to bend the knee, and reflecting the righteous anger of America against the broligarchy.

I have and will continue to. But you know why I say it here ? Because @bsky.app is 30m strong and growing quickly. The collective wisdom and influence of users here is far greater than any individual democrat.
I can't say it enough. Bluesky can be the influence that can counter RW media.

No offense, Mark, but you have influence and power most of us don’t. Why don’t you speak up to those in DC you have connections with? Actions speak louder than words as you well know.

The thing that is the most disappointing is how many people won’t have any idea, and just slurp this up like syrup.

Kind of wondering if it’s even possible to go through self-checkout at the grocery store without needing employee assistance at least once. Has it been done?

That particular kind of heavy sadness when someone you dearly love sends you conspiracy theory madness about vaccines causing autism and making people transgender. 😖

Blazed through ACOTAR in like two days. Not as 🌶️ as I would’ve hoped (based on people losing their collective 💩 on Insta/TikTok), but ordered the next two books anyways. Definitely readable.
Other ones in progress:
- Demon Copperhead (Kingsolver)
- Black River Orchard (Wendig)
Whatcha reading?

In an attempt to keep the universe in balance, here’s me saying that Mike Johnson and his wife are hateful ghouls who don’t know shit. Being gay is fine. You can love whomever the fuck you want. This is being on the right side of history, thank you.
The wife of newly elected House Speaker Mike Johnson runs a counseling business that advocates the belief that homosexuality is comparable to bestiality and incest, according to its operating documents.
Mike Johnson's Wife Runs Counseling Service That Compares Being Gay To Bestiality, Incest
The newly elected Republican House speaker and his wife, Kelly, have long intertwined their political and business lives.

Goofing around with my brother’s ChatGPT subscription, and, just to be random, I asked it: “Give me a pitch for a TV series that @flanaganfilm.bsky.social would direct that's centered around a circus.”
And I’ll be damned if it didn’t come up with something that sounded…plausible. 😳🤔

All wrapped in an indignant chorus of “but my FREEDOM!”
When you get to the absolute core of the “we can’t ban AR-15s” argument what you find is a bunch of guys who think they’re fun and don’t want to give up their expensive (murderous) toys. It’s not more complex than that.

The best way to understand the Israel Palestine divide on social media is pancake/waffles discourse.
You can say "I'm calling for a ceasefire" and someone will say "so you support Hamas murdering innocent Israelis?"
