I like this strategy of scoring every inning

If I were a hero I think I would probably not be happy to know that my name had replaced another guy’s entirely because the secretary of defense hates gay people

Been sent this from Eurobike, a prototype balance cargo bike for 3-5 year olds. Just take my money.

Ernie Clement is very involved this game.

*thunk*

One of these days I will win, cat!

Hermes, suffering the indignities of teenagers

I like this game

THIS GAME IS BANANAS B-A-N-A-N-A-S

I hope this inning never ends ♥️

I'm having fun, how about yous guys?

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander: "I don't think the line for the [Democratic] party right now is between progressives and moderates; I think it's between fighters and folders."

The 2025 Blue Jays have been so much better for my mental health than the 2024 Blue Jays.

Ernie Clement has reached base 5x in a game for the first time in his career. He's batting .309 with a .772 OPS and playing spectacular defence. All-Star calibre season. #BlueJays

I don’t think I’ll ever understand how such a huge swath of this country came to believe this is what makes America great. triblive.com/local/region...

my parents went away on a week’s vacation

YOU RUN YOU MAGNIFICENT BEAST, YOU!

So like 90% of us were wrong about Myles Straw and that’s actually a good thing

A radical Christian just murdered the speaker of a state house but the real worry is the theocratic muslim who said the bus should be cheaper

Seriously??

This is probably a good time to revisit Milk's military service--particularly how it ended.

Pro tip: if you, like me, find that music is one of the few things you can always count on to bring you joy when the world is turning to shit, buy an album today. Don't STREAM it. BUY it. Vinyl, mp3, whatever. And try to buy it from the band/label directly, or bandcamp if that's not an option.

The fact that some members of Lawsky are defending SCOTUS today or saying it's just procedural shit that doesn't change anything is why people don't trust lawyers to be part of the resistance.

Since it's the last Friday of June, here's my June playlist. open.spotify.com/playlist/2J6...

Everyone should sue Fox News

I would read a long read by @chasestrangio.bsky.social about the courts, the law, their limits and the work to be done beyond the courts. I fear that for a lot of Liberals the idea is that the courts are the last line of defense. I don't that's not true but am not a lawyer so people don't listen.

all of the Supreme Court’s jurisprudence about executive power - all of it - can be replaced with a simple flow chart. is the president a Republican? if so it’s ok. if not, it’s presumptively not ok.

Anyway you'll find me in my communities continuing my mutual aid work, creating local vehicles for organizing, and actively modeling the world in which I'd like to live through practicing community care in the ways I can.

Fascism doesn’t just fall upon a nation suddenly without warning

The degree to which the Constitution has been eviscerated by a tyrannical president, a complicit Supreme Court, and a criminally negligent Congress in just five months is unfathomable. We're, quite literally, no longer a Constitutional republic. America is subject to one man's personal rule.

So are we are just not doing “phrasing” anymore?

All people's rights under the Constitution are, per the Supreme Court, 100% alienable. If you cannot hire a lawyer and engage in effective litigation against the power of the entire executive branch of the federal government, you have no rights at all.

Snuggle break!

Wow was that fast--an immigrant advocate group already filed an amended complaint seeking class action relief in its birthright citizenship case in federal court in Maryland

Alberta: *runs massive "Alberta is calling" ad campaign to encourage workers to move there* Immigrants: Great, will do Danielle Smith: First of all, how fucking dare you
