I’m not even protected by Union brothers and sisters, and I’m ready for a general strike. Where do I go to sign up? #UnionStrong

Absolutely nailed it. Brexit was never going to be enough. Leaving the ECHR would not be enough. Nothing will be enough for these dangerous fools.

My understanding of the Trump-Musk conflict: 1. Musk considers that he bought Trump's presidency & that Trump should behave as his obedient servant. 2. Trump acknowledges that Musk bought him & allowed dozens of regulatory concerns to lapse & $20 billion of gov contracts. /1

Get your false imprisonment lawsuit ready. Make it hurt these agencies monetarily. A lot.

🚨 After months of defiance of court orders (and the Supreme Court) and claims under oath from cabinet level officials that they would never bring him back, the Trump admin blinks; Kilmar Abrego Garcia is being brought back to the U.S., where he can finally get some due process.

Let’s talk for a moment about some of the more subtle ways that the press acts as a mouthpiece for law enforcement. Actor Jonathan Joss was shot to death on Sunday. I don’t know what happened; I wasn’t there. But his husband said a homophobic neighbor shot him as part of an explicit hate crime. /1

The thing to remember about Andrew Cuomo's breakfast order is that he resigned the governorship in disgrace after being credibly accused of sexually harassing at least 11 women with unwanted groping, kissing and sexual comments

This lecture by Jimmy Carter from when he received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 is a sobering and interesting read. You realize how much has changed in the world since then. 😔 www.nobelprize.org/prizes/peace...

As good an occasion as any to reflect that the first Pride was a riot.

she hates porn because she's jealous of the writing

Loving the whole, “They can’t arrest ALL OF US” energy on display here.

So, I think it's time I begin, in detailed specifics, talking about the mess that is Unbound / Boundless as a book publisher, in essence stealing most of a years royalties from me and many other authors, as a result of poor financial decisions, and legal BS. Please read and share this thread.

The shelter website is overloaded, but you can order in Chewy through the link in the thread and drop ship to the shelter. The wishlist has items at many price points. New Chewy accounts get free shipping and other credits if your order >$50.

If he’s following Andrew Tate he wants to harm you. If he’s following Jordan Peterson he thinks he deserves to. Worry less about whose photos he’s liking and more about which podcasts he’s listening to. The woman in the bikini isn’t telling him to kill you.

Reminder this Pride month, when the inevitable imbeciles say, “where’s military appreciation month?!” Say, it was last month, you missed it, you clearly don’t care about those who serve.

Stunning details now emerging: this was an operation planned a year and a half in advance, involved smuggling drones into Russia, placing them in containers on top of trucks, arranging for them all to open simultaneously and to strike.

Definitely do not call this number and read excerpts of X Files scripts. Don't do it. Don't. www.insidethex.co.uk

I love the factoids about explorers fired by Europeans to check out N. America who decided their own employee was making it up. Douglas the Scotsman couldn’t measure living old growth Douglas firs so stepped out a fallen one at over 300’, or 95m. “Ah, that’s just rubbish. Pure tosh.” lol.

I think she did. We had a long chat 10 days ago & she talked about how she got the writers to let Margaret evolve into a strong, amazing woman from the sterotypical comic Hot Lips character. She was proud of that & how that character was a breakthrough in the way women were portrayed at the time

VBM is awesome. Easy peasy, you have time to research candidates and even obscure bond measures and vote thoughtfully on your own schedule (just get that envelope back before the cutoff!) Every state should have robust vote by mail.

As NYWFP works to consolidate support around its slate of candidates, we're proud to rank @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social #1 🥳 To give voters clear guidance, we're ranking a full slate of 5 candidates. When we unite, we can defeat Cuomo & elect a mayor who fights for us. Let's get this done!

BREAKING: Trump announces 50% tariffs on TACOS, walks it back, and folds in upon himself in a quantum dimensional meta referential singularity

omg this is so wholesome I'm gonna cry

ICE turned back in Somerville So many Somerville community members came out that ICE simply retreated. Nonviolent resistance works when communities come together to protect kids and families.

😂

Soooo on brand for the most inept and corrupt administration ever. Caligula is like, “that wasn’t me, y’all!”
