I acquired a tabletop replica of Canova’s “Venus Victrix” and I am wildly in love with it. The model for this fantastic sculpture was Napoleon’s slutty uncontrollable sister, Pauline Bonaparte, and the whole thing gives off so much boss-bitch Venus energy I want to light candles to it. #WitchSky

This is why traditional political power hoarders hate RCV — it encourages coalitions, doesn’t hate voters, and makes divide and conquer & demonization less effective/attractive. Scorched earth is actually a terrible planet to live on.

And then this shit just came out. When you’re making over $700k a year, gaining $12k is nothing. It’s a nice vacation, redoing the garage, giving a niece/nephew a car. When you’re making $23k a year, losing $1600 is “are we paying for food or for the house or for medical bills” territory.

I saw this movie yesterday and remain haunted by it. It’s strange and oddly familiar.

There really is something special about what Zohran and Brad are showing the rest of the world what it still means to be a New Yorker and an American. A Jew and a Muslim modeling a politics of mutual respect, rejecting cynicism. Human decency has been taking a beating but she's not out just yet!

I guarantee you, there is a non-sexually assaulting progressive Millennial or Gen Z person with a smattering of charisma in every district where there is an inert, fat cat establishment mayor or representative. Take every seat.

So Miller attacked LA because Musk stole his wife and Trump is bombing Iran because no one came to his birthday party. Men are too emotional to lead.

This is how to say it: Masked men in street clothes assaulting and confining him claim they’re law enforcement. Vance Boelter says: Maybe, maybe not. Badge and ID requirements are more essential than ever. (Also: Warrants. 🙄)

Visiting the South and I’d forgotten about y’all’s ridiculous air conditioning. I’ve been freezing this whole trip. It’s either 95° outside or 60° inside with no middle ground and my feet are permanently frozen bc I brought no socks. ☀️❄️ Southerners, you don’t have to live like this!

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

@allbugsgotokevin.bsky.social What is this bug, please? My sons found several in northeastern Arkansas, while visiting. When approached it would flex like it was trying to sting with the two long tails. We’d love to know what it is!

I came too fast around a corner hallway and bumped into Brad Pitt. We muttered excuse mes and went on our respective ways.

America, here's something you need to know that only an older person can tell you: never kneel. It's too damn hard to stand up again. This isn't just about knees. It's also about democracy. #Resist

Idk man but when the administration that tried to reject humanitarian aid for Los Angeles when it was burning tries to justify their illegal military occupation by saying they aren’t going to let LA burn it kinda sounds like bullshit

I was on a whale-watching tour in bad weather once and sang this song to myself for the entire three hours. There really is a song for every moment. 🌊

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

Imagine spending your whole life cos-playing and fantasizing about fighting the federal government sending troops in against its own citizens only to root for the government when the moment finally arrives

A little girl, flanked by federal marshals, walks into school as a mob rages behind her. The education secretary, Linda McMahon, doesn’t know who she is, and doesn’t seem to care. As Shalise Manza Young explains, McMahon knows exactly what kind of diversity she wants.

LA will win this fight against ICE by continuing to be itself. LA already knows who the cops are. LA already knows how to deal with them. And no one ever wins a culture war against LA. No one ever has. No one ever will. Just keep being you LA. ♥️

I lost weight and didn't have any shorts, so I went to the thrift store and got three pairs of shorts for this in-between phase while still losing. Got home and... all of them are too big. Welp. I guess I've had worse problems? In better news, a dress I last wore nine years ago fits perfectly.

Be careful, friends, when you read accounts of what is happening in LA. We will hear a lot about violence, and it is essential to remember who is defining that term.
