New heroes deserve options, right? We are so excited for the countdown to #TheLibrarians : The Next Chapter we had to make more than one poster. Only one month to go!

THEY HAVE DEPORTED A TWO YEAR OLD CHILD BIRTHRIGHT CITIZEN This is why I have no patience anymore for people playing games with this stuff.

When they start arresting judges we’re all in a lot of trouble

In the continuing journey of looking for work -- I must say that the side benefit of HR staff taking INCREDIBLY TOO LONG to respond to an application is that by the time they get around to saying "no thanks" I've forgotten I ever applied. #rediculous

Philadelphia's transit agency SEPTA announces potential drastic service cuts if state doesn't act to head off fiscal crisis. In these moments, don't yell at the transit management! They don't want to cut service either. They are trying to motivate action. www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/transpo...

This is scary. The authortarians are working hard to quash legitimate scrutiny. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/22/b...

Radical, woke leftist agenda. 🙄

Happy Earth Day!

I set up an email for my mom’s funeral service over a year ago & to use as a point of contact for the memory page I plan to create… & now she’s getting “our time” spam there now. WTF?!

I’m just a barefoot distinguished professor emerita, but it *does* seem like this should be an impeachable offense. At a minimum.

About 1,000 people joined the protest Saturday against the Trump administration’s constitutional and civil rights violations.

Kamala Harris: “he’s a fascist” Gen. Milley: “he’s a fascist” John Kelly: “he’s a fascist” Historians of fascism: “he’s a fascist” The NY/DC political media: “how did we all fail to see that Donald Trump was a fascist?”

Time for the Visions panel!

Quick digestible summary by Kirschner:

I will never forgive any of these MAGAts for voting for Drumpf. F your feelings. You all suck.

We hope you guys find this interesting. ‘Guy,’ meaning “person,” comes from Guy Fawkes. Boom.

if you are a Marylander please call in support of this because it's the bravest fucking thing any senator has done in either Trump term

JUST IN: Abrego Garcia's lawyers say the Trump administratio has to at least request his return from El Salvador to comply with the Supreme Court's order. Especially since El Salvador is operating like a US prison contractor, they say. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Exactly. And if he had committed a thousand crimes, it wouldn’t be a heavy lift to prove just one. But DHS and the White House offer nothing but conclusory bullshit.

Also, I am hoping it's the State of Pennsylvania that handles the attempt on the life of @governor.pa.gov & his family -- Drumpf would just pardon the person eventually. #deplorables

Why doesn't msm call the arson attack on Gov. Shapiro an attenpted assassination?

If the administration is too lazy to do the SCOTUS bidding to bring back a wrongfully kidnapped person, ( —we still have a nominal separation of branches) —perhaps the current administration shouldn't be in office and should retire to the golf course(s) they are so used to.

Good for Harvard

Harvard said no to His Magasty. Bravo, Harvard.

Another whack solution looking for a problem that doesn't exist... #deplorable #FreedomToRead

@mmeleota.bsky.social are you OK ?? (with that weirdo naked perskon running around the park? I hope you’re safe!!)

Grabbed at his appointment to become a citizen. Is this who we are? 😕🇺🇸

I woke up at 330 & couldn't go back to sleep. I was watching people on TikTok talk about Chinese manufacturers trolling Drumpf on TT, but all I saw were videos about the videos. I had to go to my 'flower knows' expert to see her explain where to get palette samples. There was no trolling, though.

A bona fide towering inferno in downtown Berkeley this morning.

initial reports made this sound like a minor failed attempt

Every single person needs to read this. Abramson connect the dots. Then tomorrow morning, take 15 minutes and call 10 Republican congressional offices. Let them know that they need to stop supporting kidnapping, trafficking, and concentration camps.

Are we surprised it was a maga domestic terrorist

Video discussing how significant the downturn in Canadian travel to US is, and its economic impact (which includes hundreds of millions of dollars in budgeted revenue shortfalls across the US). It’s all thanks to Trump. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

There's a reason ICE agents wear masks in the street. From Kristi Noem's war-crime propaganda to the airport officers harassing innocent tourists, the MAGA deportation regime is not just immoral but increasingly criminal Someday, there must be justice. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...

Got the news on & there was an Xdemvy (for eye mites??) advert -- I was like "I know that voice!!" It was Nancy (the Plague victim) on Ghosts!! ( Betsy Sodaro is her actual name!) So cool! Go, Betsy!! Love you on Ghosts! (that's the American one, for my UK friends)

Amazing turnout on a beautiful day to celebrate the Sunset Dunes / Ocean Beach Park! I was proud to be one of 5 supervisors to put it on the ballot last year (for which I’ve now been sued) and proud of the voters of SF for passing it. This is a great change for our City. Come enjoy this new park!

Today (& honestly yesterday) was OK -- Yesterday I picked up a 3hr out-of-class shift -- got 2 hours on desk & today I did another hour on desk (I do an hour on desk *almost* every week -- something about it needing to be less than 20% of my shift?) Every hour helps with experience though! Yay!

I'm so used to bar bathrooms with cutesy signs that I had to stop here and ask myself if I was a Mario or a Wario

DH & I are watching Green Day at #Coachella. Yay!

Billie Joe sounds SO GOOD #coachella

🤷🏾‍♂️

it's (sadly) funny 'cause it's oh, so true...

Sigh... of course I wound up watching "Amadeus" on a weekend evening during which the goal is to forget everything going on in the world, a pursuit of formidable escapism. Damn you, Miloš Forman. Damn you.
