School play gets canceled for "inappropriate content". In response students write [REDACTED], their own anti-censorship play skewering the school district, sells out performances, and ultimately takes gold at the Lenaea High School Theatre Festival. www.kqed.org/arts/1397192...

I feel like Catch 22 is one of the most obviously leftist books just bc the protagonist is a smart guy who understands the insanity around him in perfect clarity, but nobody takes him seriously because it's also turned him into a miserable, high-strung neurotic And what's more leftist than that

Today and tomorrow, there will be outrage about this in the liberal press. Within a week, Trump supporters will be making this salute ironically, as a middle finger to the elites. In a month, they will be doing it unironically to express their devotion to The Leader.

"Well, Grant, we've had the devil's own day today, haven't we?" "Yes. Lick 'em tomorrow though." - Grant and Sherman after the disaster of the first day of Shiloh, April 1862. They won the next. Today is one of the bad days in American history. Better days will come.

The wildfires are CLEARLY a tragedy, and so much work is needed to end them and to begin the cleanup. I am not able to find a SINGLE prominent Republican who has been a part of the help or relief efforts. All I've seen are lies, conspiracy theories, and resistance. I'd love to be wrong. Examples?

While we’re banning books… Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar. Be. Like. Finland.

There are so many people pointing out how narrow the Republican margin of victory ultimately was in the election. The fact that the Dems didn't run away with it, given how awful of a candidate the Rs put up is a sign that people aren't buying what they're selling. A major pivot is needed.

Supreme Court 18-year term limit bill should be just the beginning: — 13 justices — 7 clerks per justice — single 18-year term — binding code of ethics with punishments all the way up to impeachment — full investigation of corrupt gifts to Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, et al.

One of my favourite things from 2024 is seeing @flavorflav.bsky.social take a prominent place as a celebrity who ought to be known for kindness, generosity, and positivity as much as for his career.

Uh-oh ... I flew too close to the sun. I noticed a bunch of followers, but so far, they don't seem to constitute an AUDIENCE. I should resort to hotter takes maybe.

I seem to be gaining some followers - maybe a result of mutual follows. Might as well offer some thoughts. First, I believe that any worker who is not in a union should be asking why they aren't. If you believe that unions are bad for workers, you're a victim of decades of anti-union propaganda.

What do I need to do to get @stephenking.bsky.social and @markhamillofficial.bsky.social to follow me? Do I need to contact central casting for a new film version one of King’s books with Mark Hamill as the lead?!

Really want to curate a good list of people and organizations to follow here to prevent feeling like I'm creating an echo chamber. Is anyone able to offer how my feed works, or what kind(s) of algorithms are used to suggest follows to me? @bsky.app

I signed up here a while back (before it was cool?) I'm hopeful that the mistakes of other social media platforms won't be made here ... but I'm going to remain skeptical (and optimistic, 'cause they can't take that away from me) for a while yet.
