Worst. Episode. EVER.

NO. NO NO NO. NO!

Big protest coming to Stonewall National Monument in just an hour or two. If you are in the area, get down there, be active, show your disapproval of the removal of transgender people from all online websites for the Stonewall National Monument page!

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

MORE OF THIS PLEASE

In every single interview I’ve done with international media since Trump took power I’ve been asked: Why are there no mass protests? There are many reasons, of course, but the utter refusal of the self-proclaimed “fourth estate” to communicate clearly what is happening has to be high on the list.

This is exactly how Hitler talked. It's not even a comparison or analogy, as people claim. It's a direct connection in ideology as well as a similar approach to governance and relationship to democracy. This needs to be how we talk about it. They are the ideological descendants of Hitler.

An excellent deep dive intp the dats behind FIRE's "campus free speech" rankings. You won't be surprised to learn they are bullshit, riddled with errors and willful misrepresentions. This is not a serious organization and we would stop treating it as such. www.chronicle.com/article/the-...

Of course, never do this. Explicitly avoid doing this, using this very diagram.

Midwestern public service announcement: in very cold weather a slice of cheap-ass bologna will freeze to a car and damage the finish in a way that can't be buffed out. Especially a car that's allegedly stainless steel that gets discolored by ordinary rain! Source: (REDACTED)

OMB director Russ Vought has officially begun carrying out his section of Project 2025. Technical thread to follow, but it’s really important - this is a major path through which the Trump administration will illegally impound funding, refusing to carry out some of our spending laws.

If you still have friends/family who think this administration will help them, talk to them about money....

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

the emotional logic of fascism

So which US politicians are the "left wing" ones, because I can only think of one that might possibly be called left wing and not even sure about that one. We basically do not have left wing politicians

There are little kids sleeping in cars because their families got evicted. Veterans homeless on the streets, losing their benefits. How can we dance when the world is burning

Holy shit! You’ve got to see this town hall. Republicans are starting to get torn apart by their own constituents. Rep. Rich McCormick: “You don’t think I’m going to stand up for you?” Woman in the crowd: “You need to stand up.” Another woman: “Don’t bend over.” 🔥

this man is on fucking drugs, he is on a lot of them, and every member of the white house press corps and every republican member of congress is deliberately overlooking it

So... youtu.be/5JpwyYRd7fk?...

I talked with Live Like the World is Dying host @margaret.bsky.social about preparedness, collective survival, and challenging ourselves "to let people be better."

Trump’s new Executive Order is designed to eliminate “unnecessary” regulations. Guess which regulations are considered unnecessary? The ones protecting you. 🚧🏢 Link to White House fact sheet with full info attached 🤬🖕🏼 www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/...

From my recent experience, the police took me to the local city jail (credit to HBPD, they were polite and professional the entire time), where they searched me and put me in a cell. Then I had to wait while they figured out what I was getting charged with (disrupting an assembly)

As always, @chriswarcraft.bsky.social is a real one.

Both political parties and the FBI were long ago infiltrated by the "Russian mafia", which is actually a transnational crime syndicate in which the Kremlin is a key hub -- one with particular importance for Trump. Two former heads of the FBI went on to work for the Russian mafia.

Gift link. The actual story of the shackled people being deported without even being told where they were being taken — maybe to countries where they’d face torture or death — while their terrified children cried.😢 The White House posted that pic with “ASMR” tag. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/w...

Works as advertised

27 GOP members of Congress are on the fence about the budget bc they know cuts to Medicaid will be disastrous for their states. If you have a GOP rep, call and email NOW and say what a terrible idea cutting Medicaid is + if they support it now, they lose your support in the midterms. 202-224-3121.

Cruelty is the agenda. The DOJ forced the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children to remove all LGBTQ language & transgender kids from its site & documents. Notice the lack of reporting by MSM yet again.

Depression is hitting hard for so many right now. If you’re drowning in hopelessness, know this: your pain is real, but so is your resilience. Healing isn’t linear, and survival itself is a victory. You’re not alone in this fight. Keep holding on. #PsychSky #TherapistSky #MentalHealth

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

and again I scream WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT TO DELETE AMERICAN SCIENCE it's one of the reasons we used to be a global superpower

late night news: The Trump administration has just told a federal judge in a court filing that it will not comply with the court's order to resume funding for USAID and State Department foreign assistance. It’s happening. They are solidifying the coup we are running out of time to stop them.

Hostile Government Takeover It's a bop

Days after "accidentally" firing nuclear safety workers, Trump and Musk have "accidentally" fired the people racing to protect the American public from bird flu. This is stupid beyond belief. A better president would intentionally fire DOGE and everyone involved with it.
