happy to follow you away from the Nazi porn bar. Question: In 2023, there were 349 school shootings and 227 injuries or deaths. Can we address that problem first and then argue about trans kids?
Hi Kara, I listen to you and @profgalloway.bsky.social every week. Love the discussions but I was very surprised to hear that Professor Galloway thinks Pete Hegseth is a good choice for Defense and the right person to control our nukes. 🙁
Good episode today 👏👏👏
the trump administration is full of men that weren’t hugged enough as kids

we need to get to place where people can rib others for their differences without fear of being strung up

Today, I unsubscribed from the Pivot podcast. After hearing the news about Morning Joe and Mika Brzezinski, I thought, “I don’t watch their show often, but how absurd that they would grovel before someone they once called a fascist.” To me, it was a clear sign of how distorted and warped the left
As I listened to the latest Pivot episode, Kara asked Scott what he thought of it. I instantly knew what he would say, and I decided in that moment that if he said what I expected, I’d stop listening for good. Sure enough, he claimed they “did the right thing.”
This was absurd to me. Mika and Joe didn’t decide to reengage with Trump because he acknowledged his role in undermining democracy, admitted he tried to overturn the election, or moderated his rhetoric. Instead, he has continued to fuel anti-LGBTQ, anti-trans, and anti-immigrant rhetoric while
strong-arming a portion of the media into falling in line.
How can I trust Scott’s analysis of the world when he views this as “the right thing”? If Scott, who’s been so critical of Elon Musk, suddenly decided Musk deserved an olive branch without changing his behavior, rhetoric, or how he runs
Good discussion of KOSA on today’s @pivotpod.bsky.social. But @karaswisher.bsky.social + @profgalloway.bsky.social, can we please get a shout out for Wait Until 8th? https://www.waituntil8th.org
It’s bipartisan (nonpartisan, really) and addresses the key concerns (addiction to social media) without gov

It’s possible now via @ap.brid.gy
You two need to step it up, stop with the childish nonsense. There's already very few voices on this side.

I’ve had enough of the mansplaining about masculinity, the dick jokes, and now this. Sorry, Kara—I can’t listen anymore.
Did you/he also do mastodon?
I love it here. It feels like T before E.
