People often stop me in the street (never happened) and ask: “What do people like on Bluesky?” “Mountains and flowers,” comes my reply. Mt. Fuji with a sprinkle of flowers for #stunday. ❤️ ✌🏽 #photography #nature #art #eastcoastkin #stormhour #photohour #fuji #japan #flowers #bloomscrolling #scape

LAPD tear gassed, pepper balled and assaulted protesters to clear the way for ICE to conduct these raids. LAPD claiming it wasn’t involved is like a safecracker saying he didn’t rob the bank, he just opened the vault.

I think democrats should focus more on Iran and antisemitism (not loving Israel) on the left in response to this.

Reports that ICE ran a barricade and hit protesters in LA

I started a substack about culture in Chicago and travel, and my first post focuses on @facilitytheatre.bsky.social’s production of Endgame and a screening of Ran at @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/weathere...

being intimidated by bluesky is so funny. yeah i keep getting my ass kicked every time i go to bath and body works

Even when you learn what it means (Trump Always Chickens Out), it’s inscrutable. You want Trump to follow through on the policies that would gut the government and crash the economy?

my favorite angle of Tom Thibodeau are the shots where it looks like him saying JOHN WEEEECK? THE BABA YAGAAAHHH??

A million years ago, this was a national scandal. Today, it is just an every day occurrence that we all tacitly accept.

“Dr. al-Farra said that most of the victims were children aged between 10 and 13, many with gunshot wounds to the head or chest.”

The heartbreaking statement from Jonathan Joss’s husband about his death.

ME: yeah could i get the impossible burger with cheese. THE VIZIER WHO'S BEEN ADVISING ME: ahh, an excellent choice sire. an imitation of the genuine article. there are some "friends" of yours to whom it bears a passing similarity ME: you want anything VIZIER: [chuckles] what i want is of no import

Bluesky: where real Palestinians get perma-banned immediately but scam accounts the site claims to be concerned with do not get banned because their IP address isn’t from Gaza. pretty clear that this is all just anti-Palestinian racism.

Israeli military drones told Palestinians to go to a specific area to collect aid, and when they got there the military drones opened fire on them. Hind Khoudary reporting.

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.

The men and women who serve here come from all across the country, but I was impressed by how many are recruited from the local community.

We were likely years away from making HIV a thing of the past. Humanity triumphing over one of its worst diseases Instead we'll live in a world where people continue getting sick because of a greedy few who didn't want to pay their fair share of taxes

Reggie Watts addresses Thom Yorke’s statement on Palestine and it’s good

“I listened to the concerns of our insurance industry and”

Standing up for the silent majority of voters who celebrate and treasure their right as Americans to owe $11,000 for getting rushed to the hospital on one of the worst days of their lives. It's called "being moderate" and it's how you win elections.

if you know anyone who is like “speed cameras are fine, just don’t speed” remind them that any time we give cops the ability to search us extrajudicially, they’re gonna fuckin do it

watching how bsky moderation treats gazans has really been informative on what we're racing towards, btw

ok I feel completely insane asking this but like weren't we NOT blowing up rockets, like, 50 years ago. weren't we successfully sending rockets up that did not rattle apart. also weren't we like "ah yeah that was a fail" when the rocket fell apart instead of calling it a "partial success"

he’s not caving. this is what he wants to do

one of the biggest bullshit lines that liberals use to justify not supporting us against genocidal policies is that it's not electorally popular. this ignores that your fucking job as a politician is to make things popular by supporting them and talking about them. they are cowards
