Brooklyn magnolias!

Don’t shame people for not immediately reading all the books they buy. Some books aren’t made to be ready right away, okay? Some books need time to mature. Some books need to cure for a while. Some books are prosciutto, and don’t you forget it.

Elections have consequences

There's some great #indiemusic happening - art makes life better...

“The Food and Drug Administration’s top vaccine official, Dr. Peter Marks, abruptly resigned Friday, saying in a searing letter that Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s aggressive stance on vaccines was irresponsible and posed a danger to the public.”

In recent years, Judge Boasberg has: - ordered the release of Hillary’s emails - ensured Trump’s tax returns never became public - restricted disclosure from the Mueller investigation - limited disclosure of grand jury material in the Trump classified docs case. The resistance, he ain’t.

Great online indie music community... #indiemusic

Sometimes I imagine the future so much that the present seems like the past.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

A top economics reporter goes off script on national TV: “I am going to say this at risk of my job, but what President Trump is doing is insane.”

Everyone should be screaming like this! More of this, now please!

Listen to Pete Buttigieg. No one is safe from the criminal conman and his Nazi sidekick; not seniors, not children, and especially not veterans. These greed-driven billionaire fucksticks will stop at nothing to give themselves tax cuts. 😳👇

#Neversayhisname 45 will do...

New #indiemusic from NAS for the week...

Rec when arguing w/MAGA: Use AI to validate misinformation & false claims when arguing w/far right leaning people online. I've been doing this and it's been amazingly helpful. ChatGPT & Grok both show sources. Useful to strike down a lot of misinformation - & good education! #truth #democracy

My current theory: The admin is doing the craziest, most constitution-risking things under the assumption it won't get through, but that liberal/centrist voters will react strongly to these notions on social, further polarizing the populace. (1/)

Well said!

🔥 Rep. Al Green is not new to standing up

Curtis Yarvin‘s writings display an astonishing amount of ignorance about human behavior - on top of ignorance about history & the details underpinning critical moments (end of slavery, etc). My hunch is anyone intensely subscribed to his worldview is in for a stark wake up call in coming years.

love this @rokhanna.bsky.social We need more proposals like this that co-opt the chaos Please share off line as well !!!
