Monday... 10am EST...

The hypocrisy of a Minneapolis Mayor quite literally mismanaging, defunding, and dismantling LGBTQIA+ equity (and specifically Trans equity) work under his jurisdiction and then turning around and going to the 19 Bar reopening to posture being an ally to the queer community is so sickening

This hits just as good as the old 'Jacob go home' videos

A lot of people want to let it die for 5-10 years, and they aren't wrong, but that's not something the C-Suite or shareholders would ever let happen, so: 🧵 [1/4]

What’s your favorite acting role by a singer?

My leg? Wet.

Just some amazing signs up in a congressional office building. Whoever did this… hero(es).

DSCC sent me a survey, and I know - I KNOW - it doesn’t matter what I put in there, but it sure as shit felt good Anyways, transgender erasure and DOGE weren’t even options to pick from the list of things Dems should care about, so fuck them

Went to North Market for the first time, in an effort to divest as much as possible from Target & Whole Foods, and can recommend. A little more expensive, but that's to be expected with any co-op / local style switch, and not at a prohibitive level.

Ah yes, the car of a well-adjusted man with nothing to prove to anyone

mini #ttrpg rant: I love D&D, but it's not a storytelling game. It has nothing in the *actual mechanics* to support storytelling. And that's fine if 1. you don't want your game to feel like a story or 2. you're an experienced storyteller & never needed the game But MOST players are neither 🧵

In honor of the Andor trailer out today, I today repost my greatest online achievement: The Andor Characters as Dril Tweets series. I'm going to put them out as I get spare time over the next couple days, as I'm going to put alt text on them too. Starting with the man himself CASSIAN ANDOR

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

James Webb Satellite took a fantastic shot of the Planet Saturn with it's Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI). This is just an Amazing shot that shows the planet and the rings in brilliant detail.

I really need everyone to stop thinking in terms of laws and procedures and start thinking in terms of power and balance of forces. Like, yes, they intend to instruct the military to repress the people. They always did. The moves they're making are increasing the likelihood of army refusal

based on the power suit cuz i think the shoulders fit better

Dear Manager: 1. I bought lottery tickets for 98 year olds 2. I found black flies in the Chardonnay 3. I submitted a pardon 2 minutes too late 4. I gave out free rides after they had already paid 5. I made it rain on wedding days

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

*Laughs in PBEM* There have been no less than 4 romances that occur organically in nearly every game in which I've been involved

In modern history, what is the least popular that party leaders have ever been to their OWN voters? Second place was the GOP in 2009, where their net approval with Republican voters was only +6. Currently Dems are -8, shattering all previous records.

The reply email inbox for this “what did you do last week” email is [email protected], so, you know, definitely don’t send them any unrelated messages that would interfere with their ability to carry out Elon’s dumbass bullshit

Oh no, the email address for Musk’s team is visible in this screenshot, I’d hate to think anyone would abuse that fact

Those are rookie numbers, you’ve gotta pump those numbers up

Market egg gone? Egg boil to harden reserves

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

I would like one (1) Dem Senator willing to go at least as far as a retired Vikings punter

Why yes, I am an Avatar fan, and I am ready to FEAST

Someone needs to make a bot that just replies to all these Senators out here regurgitating the news at us with this gif every time they post

Tell me what's going on in your WIP right now using only a gif.

Ex NFL player @chriswarcraft.bsky.social protesting the inclusion of a MAGA acronym in the Huntington Beach library plaque at last night’s council meeting. He was arrested and cited.

If you are a federal employee in Minnesota and recently lost your job, we'd like to talk to you. Please contact reporter Janet Moore at JMooreStrib.60 on the encrypted messaging app Signal. You can also email us at [email protected]. We strongly encourage you to use a personal device.

State AGs are looking for federal workers who have just been illegally fired to stand as litigants in a new lawsuit trying to freeze further action by DOGE. DM me if that’s you and you’re interested and you’re live in one of the following states: NM, AZ, CA, CT, MD, MI, MN, NV, OR, WA, RI, or VT.

This game continues to fascinate and piss me off in equal measure, especially as someone who worked very hard on my safety rules for Sordid Affairs
