“Typically as you move further from tragedy, it grows further from the mind, but I’m encouraged people still care and people continue to come out and show support...Ahmaud’s life still means something to people.” www.ajc.com/news/atlanta...

Share this with all of the trump voting women you know. MAGA is trying to take away womens’ rights, including the right to vote & divorce an abusive spouse. www.salon.com/2025/02/26/a...

DOGE is like if Fyre Festival was a government agency.

@ossoff.senate.gov is the ONLY Dem Senator running for re-election in a state F47 won. He is the GOP’s #1 target. It is expected that MTG will launch a campaign. F47 needs her & Musk will surely fund her campaign. Jon needs our support, and we need Jon! secure.actblue.com/donate/ossof...

Remember this when you head to the polls, Canada.

Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

I've struggled with depression my entire life. Years of therapy, hard work, and the right medication have helped me get to a place where I actively think "I want to die" only once a month, maybe even two months. 1/2

It's not fair to say that Pete Hegseth "didn't disclose anything." When TFG's transition team asked him "Is there anything worrisome we should know about?" how was he supposed to know that abusing women, showing up to work impaired, and being fired from charities would be considered a problem?

Horror film makers, please consider a retelling of Big, from the perspective of the mother. Watch this great reaction from Asia and BJ and you'll see what I mean. youtu.be/64wCW8kKgfY?...

My new favourite BlueSky hobby: reading the comments on beautiful posts like this one, and blocking all the hateful bigots. It's like shooting fish in a barrel, without having to shoot. Or get wet.

We have a shit ton of trolls coming here They're losing traction on the hellscape & r getting desperate So its simple: DO NOT ENGAGE REPORT IF THEY THREATEN OR PRETEND TO BE SOMEONE ELSE TELL US, THEN BLOCK If you engage with them, they'll be everywhere Does everyone understand the assignment?

It works. Try it.

"JP, what was it about living in Philadelphia that made you love it so much?" JP: "I don't really know. They're just my kind of people, ya know?"

Question: Is there a list of rules all the BlueSky newbies should know?
