Today, @redphoenix2010.bsky.social and I got a little taste of ATX in ATL. @torchystacos.bsky.social

Amen to that.

Elon Musk fancies himself some kind of maverick technologist superhero. But he’s no Tony Stark. He’s PHONY Stark. He’s the one the Avengers defeat at the end of the movie.

I hate that the "finding out" phase is hurting the rest of us too.

The next four years are gonna be bleak.

Tried to make a list of the very alarming economic changes that have occurred in America over the course of my adult life (I’m 35), which some large portion of the commentariat is trying to convince us are both reasonable and long-standing. What did I miss?

Women of America: If you don’t know how to defend yourself, take a self-defense course, especially for the underaged. If you can’t take a self-defense course, & don’t own a gun, buy pepper spray & keep it with you at all times. Pepper spray is legal in all states but not for the underaged.

I have here a list of words. The only way to get these grocery prices down is to immediately cease all government operations until these words are purged from every document, policy, website and email signature in government. Good luck.

I wonder if the Supreme Court's ruling that the president isn't bound by the law is having any effect on the current administration

This sounds interesting someone should pay James and publish it so I can read it

X is a Nazi censorship engine. I'm baffled that so many people who should know better continue to use it

Quite an exchange here between Judge Reyes and DOJ attorney on how "pronoun usage" affects military readiness.

Why haven't journalists -- supposedly on the front lines of free speech -- collectively abandoned the richest man in the world's website where he promotes white supremacist propaganda and conspiracies while simultaneously censoring anything he doesn't like?

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

"Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage." -- @govpritzker.illinois.gov

On this Day of Remembrance, we honor the 120,000 Japanese Americans unjustly imprisoned during WWII because of their heritage. Their resilience remind us to never forget the lessons of history. We will continue to fight for justice, equality, and civil rights for all.

I know it’s overwhelming but, together we are strong 💪🏻 #Organize #UniteAndResist 🤝🌎✊

“The voice of Dr. King rings with more power from the crypt than the voices of most of our political leaders who speak in the public square today.” - Senator Raphael Warnock #MLKDay2025

Pay attention. Refuse to participate. For the duration... answers to nisy questions are simple: "I don't know" "Nope" "No"

What Desmond Tutu said....

That’s 800,000 people who were conned out of $2,500 each, and not only are they gonna vote for him AGAIN, but they’re gonna be like, “Bro, Trump’s next Fartcoin? This one’s for real this time”

America in 2025.

Found some peace in this.

Trump and Hegseth’s Reckless Purge of Military Leadership Endangers National Security. Common Defense calls on Congress, military leaders, and every American who cares about democracy to speak out and stand against this dangerous coup in the making.

Heard a song from the 80s reference a "long distance call" and it occurred to me that this is a concept that no longer holds any emotional currency whatsoever

White Baby Boomers should NOT be allowed to use social media. I’m so serious. This most-gullible, most-media illiterate demographic has done truly incalculable harm. They consistently brag about what they view as their gen’s accomplishments— —yet NEVER accept blame for their devastating failures.

If you’re so convinced it’s an innocuous salute, why don’t you film yourself doing it and pop it on your LinkedIn, Facebook, Insta, and set a still of it as your WhatsApp profile picture

Why do people who claim to remember their past lives always seem to be reincarnations of Helen of Troy or an accused Salem witch or someone heroic on the Titanic, and never a random cabbage-selling wench from the 1500s who died in her sleep at the ripe auld age of 39 and never learned to read

More of this

I think most people who are sounding the alarm about democracy assume people understand why it's good and important but I kinda doubt it. And if we follow Russia's example most people may not even notice it gradually disappearing

Ummm…👇 The more you know…💫
