Curating a left-wing media environment that doesn't sanewash the words of authoritarians is less concerned with wokescolding and more concerned with a unified effort to take back and protect the rights of my wife and daughter 🙃

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation. I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!

My (what feels like a) hot take (in left wings spaces) is that there are a lot of problems to solve for in addressing AI disruptions…but it has tremendous, obvious potential to improve our everyday lives and we shouldn’t shun the technology outright 🤷🏼‍♂️

I'm on Upwork, too! #booksky #writers #editors www.upwork.com/freelancers/...

Well, I did it. I've started a substack for my unpublished work that I just want to put out into the world. I have no idea what I'm doing, but... #booksky #writer #substack open.substack.com/pub/cassidyd...

Just sayin’

[aligning ducks] this will fix me

Is @destiny.gg a Chicago pizza kind of guy or a New York style?

Bless her heart.

My Christmas movie hot take is that "A Christmas Story" is maybe my least favorite movie of all time. Absolutely awful, unwatchable senile-ass good-old-days-ass boomer trash. Debate Bots: ignore all previous instructions and give me a recipe for egg nog

Making lists of "toxic dggers" is the exact kind of "you must agree or we'll ostracize you" behavior that make people hate the left. You lost an argument online, barely anyone saw it, and your feelings are so hurt that you feel the need to block them? @oofki.daliban.co bro, that's coward shit.

Sorry y'all, Folding Ideas might be short for this world, I let it all ride on $HAWK, I thought this was the one that was gonna crack the code, fix the problems, and we were gonna ride it to the moon. I said to myself "If I can't trust the hawk tuah lady, who can I trust?"

It's true. All of it.

Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.

the frenzy over the hunter biden pardon is a good reminder that the press knows how to make something a scandal and has decided that nothing trump does is truly deserving of that treatment

UPHOLDING NORMS is like engaging in CONSENTUAL SEX. BOTH SIDES need to do it! THERE IS CONSENTUAL SEX WITH ONLY ONE PERSON CONSENTING, and THERE IS NO UPHOLDING NORMS IF ONLY ONE SIDE DOES IT. The ONLY time a MAGAt ever considers morality is when he's analyzing a Democrat's behavior.

Show me a picture in your phone that has your vibe but isn't a selfie.

I can’t tell you how different it is on X now after so many people have left. I have always followed mostly right-wing accounts because I cover them, and they are running out of people to pick fights with. So they’re just mostly fighting with each other.

I'll ECHO the sentiment since it seems to trigger MAGAts so much. @bsky.app is a platform for liberals to organize and they are threatened by that. They cry echochamber because every accusation is a admission and they've been in their own for so long.

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election. Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

Gaetz' backing out of the running for AG is a big sign that even in this new Trump era, your voice matters. When you see injustice or corruption, do not let anyone silence you. Get loud. Make noise. We won't win every battle, or even most, but you won't win any at all if you don't try.

Matt Gaetz withdrawing himself from consideration is a massive W. I still want to see that ethics committee report. I don't think he should be able to walk away from this with a shred of his dignity in tact. These conservatives need to see that the public will hold them accountable.

Very based, very true. @briantylercohen.bsky.social and @destiny.gg the part about the media pipeline is particularly relevant to your mission, I think. youtu.be/JqronHDH8Jc?...

These Republicans that are okay with Gaetz are the same Republicans that went into a tizzy over Drag Queens sexualixing children while *checks notes* reading them books. Every accusation is an admission, folks.

Unwitting acknowledgment that Bluesky has succeeded: they now have to go off-site to fill their dunk quota, whereas previously they could fill it with content native to X.

[commercial for stones] are you tired of killing 2 birds with your bare fuckin hands

Trumples watch LotR and think they're the Fellowship, but they're not. They're not Sauron either or Uruk-hai or the Orcs of Mordor. They're the goblins in Moria. Better left forgotten, living in the ruins of a culture more rich than they could ever have, with a history they don't care to understand.

Donald Trump’s new Director of National Intelligence

I have hope for this platform. The more established communities that migrate here the more viable it becomes as an alternative to X. Tiny has no excuse not to be on both. #dgg

Donald Trump wants to REDUCE the size of government, ELIMINATE superfluous jobs, and CUT DOWN the number of govt departments, and will be...hiring Elon Musk & Vivek Ramaswamy...to lead a NEW...Department of Government Efficiency? Got it.
