In honor of Pride, Arcee (with bonus gf, Aileron).

Just want to say that I love my wonderful girlfriend @shadowhisker.bsky.social so so so so so much and hope she has a great day.

to be clear: when they write "Democrats" they actually mean Third Way and a guy who was a Deputy Mayor 25 years ago

It’s a shame the Don’t Tread On Me flag was appropriated by the pro treading on me community because it’s a pretty badass flag and I am tired of being tread upon.

I'll be frank. If Newsom wants to fight Trump, that's fine, I am willing to consider him a very conditional ally in the context of right now. However this attitude among some bsky people that this means we can't remember basic facts about him is gross.

I think it's because he's a rich pig who spent his time prior to this brutalizing the poor, collaborating with ICE, and having nice chats with Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon about how evil LGBTQ+ people are. He's a broken tool at best, and at worst he's one being wielded as a weapon against you.

when joe rogan and his kind turn on trump and try to shift their grift; never forget. they are eternally pieces of shit to be shunned

people gotta embrace just being an art snob rather than sublimating that into politics and trying to justify it. like that one director moron saying the Beatles were ‘neiliberal’. it’s fine to just not like the Beatles because you think they’re mainstream & lame. it’s fine. you don’t have to do that

Another good reminder from today is that to win this we all need to get used to cooperating with people we sometimes find highly annoying

Happy No Kings Day to all of us who celebrate.

MSNBC reporter in gas mask in Los Angeles: I think it was Sheriffs deploying CS gas, tear gas, pepper spray, and flash bang grenades in large numbers. Mounted units pushing against protesters.., every single gathering I saw today was 100% peaceful

Would like to say: there is an open recall for this mayor that has until July to collect signatures

Sorry am I his numbers are so few

we will win over fascism because our love for each other is greater than their hate for us

Gavin Newsom did this btw.

There's been some criticism of these protests from the left--saying that they lack a meaningful call-to-action and that they're just directionless marches. This isn't *entirely* unfair (I am a stern critic of anti-authoritarian movements that are unable/unwilling to seize power themselves). But...

I just like to post these data from time to time to puncture the mythological aura of mid 20th c protests. They were less popular than pretty much any 21st c mass action & people criticizing them used the same lines. Protest is about people coming together, shaping narratives, & building power.

A leader of the MN House Democrats is murdered by a Republican pro-life activist. Rather than condemning political murder of his opponents, Elon Musk spreads the conspiracy theory that it was done by Democrats. Journalists don’t need to use any social media site. But they really shouldn’t use X.

The value of a protest is rarely in the individual action on a specific day. The value usually comes in the longer term. People become radicalized, they get used to mobilizing. They form networks and share knowledge. Even the very lib protest has its place. There’s no one right way to protest.

I need to finish this one at some point
