Y’all, spend your time on this rather than the horrors today. When I tell you this book gave me feelings…

Petty grievance of the day: there are too many damn announcements on planes. I promise, you don’t need to tell us the screen has shows on it, you’re just interrupting us while we’re already browsing the list

"I'm voting for someone who will I know will disobey the constitution and I hope they lose in court" is a hell of a take and I hope whoever's running against her in two years is ready to highlight this with regards to every dollar withheld from Maine

Just note the Democrats could do everything in their power and still fail to stop the fascist administrative coup. I'd still like them to actually DO THAT, though.

We're entering a period where a lot of well-meaning people may spread disinformation, about anti-trans initiatives, about ICE raids, and so on. Yes, we need a grapevine, and people under the gun need to be informed quickly. But that's why it's all the more important that your info is *accurate.*

I get that discoursing things to death and echo chambers are kind of what we do here, but something deeply depressing about how much my feed today is just infighting in the midst of all the other shit we have to deal with right now

the fact that this but not I Saw The TV Glow is what's winning Oscars is a sign that the Oscar critics are bad at their job

I've been talking with the real Mariann Budde today and she has told me that this account is a fake. She asks our assistance in taking it down. @mariannedgarbudde.bsky.social

Use Signal to talk about protests Use Signal to talk about your wordle score Use Signal to talk about abortion Use Signal to talk about your mom's knitting club Use Signal to talk about parties Use Signal to talk about gender affirming care Use Signal to talk about the weather Use Signal

the thing with liberal discussions of fascism is their complete inability to grapple with the ideology within the context of what it truly was - the immune response of the patriarchal and capitalist body politik to the "spreading infection" of feminism and communism. I like Eco's Ur-Fascism.

If you won’t unequivocally call it a Nazi salute, you’re a collaborationist and don’t deserve to be a journalist.

Not lost on me that it's nonprofit tech, app.watchduty.org, showing up & actually working in the midst of the LA fires (donate to them!) Meanwhile platforms fail to surface key news, vital info is paywalled... As I've been saying, we need a new tech paradigm, yesterday!

We are so far up the ass of late-stage capitalism that people have forgotten the difference between a business and a public service.

Maybe I’m just not in tune with the right circles, but I really don’t understand why there’s not a serious movement for a constitutional amendment to set an age limit for public office at 70 or 75 or so

Ok no, you know what? I am gonna talk about something. They're talking about "regret" of transition but I will tell you that it is the least regretted medical process I can think of. I hesitate to say "it is the least regretted course of action, period" but it might be.

the clear sign that they just don’t see these kids as real people is the endless concern over hypotheticals and the indifference to the reality that actual children are more likely to kill themselves because of these bans
