🚨 We’re in it now. Act accordingly. Trump’s power grab is happening right now—& the response must be immediate. Call. Post. Organize. Stop playing by the old rules. 📢 Action starts with YOU. 🔁 Spread this. Fight back. Persist. #StopTheCoup #DefendDemocracy

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Drama has a powerful positive impact on young people As drama teaching faces cuts at school, it must be remembered the profound effect on society’s youth it has, and the force for good it is.

And where reputable journalists and thinkers go, so do elected officials. I’ve been getting asked lately about a more serious + systemic migration to Bluesky among electeds. Idk the answer but it highlights how much of a breaking point misinfo & throttling has become for Twitter(& other platforms)

Sometimes you just need Korean BBQ and some good friends for Thanksgiving dinner.

I’m thankful for Bluesky.

Repost if BlueSky is now your primary social media site.

DEATH BLART. DEATH BLART. DEATH BLART. DEATH BLART.

Tomorrow isn't just Thanksgiving, it's also happens to be Millie's 12th birthday & she would greatly appreciate being acknowledged in any of your holiday toasts. Thanking you in advance, Chelsea & Mar🐫

Spending a month on Bluesky has created a whole new model of a fight we need to be having right now. Not liberal vs. conservative or whatever, but respect vs manipulation. I am tired of being manipulated everywhere I go. That’s why I like it here, I feel like I’m in charge for once.

My strongest cooking opinion (that's actually a fact) is that what type of salt you use literally does not matter. So you might as well just use the cheapest iodized salt possible.

"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting. Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC

Hot take: Restoration is a perfectly valid school of magic

Tonight there will be a Blue Supermoon at 9:35 ET The moon will appear about 8% larger than a normal full moon and 15% brighter than a normal full moon. The next one won't be until January 2037. Keep any eye out tonight!

I heard that Andrew Tate tried to come stretch his awkward wings here and got banned in just one day. Sorry, hate has no home here. Stay in the bad place, thanks.

This place has big coffee shop inside a bookstore vibes and I’m here for it

Me in my Echo Chamber

Bluesky just got like 10 million users in a month relax on demanding features they holding it together with bubblegum and paperclips

I am beyond honored. To be here just shy of a year in is genuinely humbling❤️

Thanks for the warm welcome, y’all! The air is fresher here… I can breathe! #bydhttmwfi

Bluesky tip for newbies: Bluesky has no real algorithm. Likes here do nothing but show the poster that you enjoyed their content. That kindness is always going to be appreciated by creators, but if you want to help to boost something here, you have to repost it so others see it. 🙂

Bluesky feels like I took a Time Machine back to 2009 when I was still like “Hey this social media thing is going to make the world a better place.”

I haven't posted to Twitter since it was Twitter so it's nice getting back to this kind of platform with interesting content, and people I actually want to hear from.
