I agree w/ @brainking.bsky.social except re: pt 5. As an RN—*NOBODY* gets to latter stages of pregnancy/randomly changes their mind & ab0rts. Reality: 20-week ultrasound shows fatal/major fetal anomalies. So PLS rethink saying ur against late ab0rtions—they’re VERY NECESSARY 4 mom’s mental health!!!

I cannot IMAGINE their grief. I have loads of grief over simply reposting as a non-expert loads of info re: ab0rtion, impacts on POC, immigrants etc & 🍊 is reelected. Imagine being an expert, your whole life’s work is disbelieved by half the country & the ⏰ is ticking! Point of no return is close!🥺

Wonderful!!! 🤗🫶🏼🩵

PLS READ!!!! 2nd warning letter to VP Harris! It sounds like our election system was indeed hacked, & this is how: substack.com/home/post/p-.... IF that many bullet ballots DO exist, it’s bc they hacked it. (Stats in non-manipulated states = 0.01% etc, as opposed to 7-11% in hacked swing states.) 🤬

Still one of my faves. A few years ago I was kayaking on the Grand River (MI) and accidentally got too close to this sand hill crane that was guarding two eggs. He abruptly stood up and started in with this crazy loud squawking to warn me away.

No corruption to see here. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤬🖕🏼

He needs to not be confirmed so this would be the last of him, with any luck. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤗🩵 buy-bye! Take the trash out! 🧹🚮

In the Malheur National Forest in Michigan there is a single fungus that stretches nearly four square miles underground with a combined weight of around 35000 tons and an estimated lifespan of around 8500 years. It's the oldest of five humongous funguses within the forest, each genetically distinct.

Not comprehensive and still very much a work in progress, but I have begun building a user list of Black Romance Writers (which can also be pinned as a feed). bsky.app/profile/did:...

So a molester and pedophile who is one of the worst will be attorney general!! A criminal hisself !! Wow good job trumpers 😪😭😭🤬🤬

Matt Gaetz?! We really aren't waking up from this nightmare...are we? 💙🧙🏻‍♀️🌀😩💔🇺🇸

I am currently reading The Complete Memoirs Of Ulysses S. Grant and am pleased to report the Republic has been this fucked before and survived. 🧐 🇺🇸

find somebody who loves you the way matt stoller loves authoritarian pseudo-populist bigots pretending to be serious antitrust reformers

Matt Gaetz needs to be asked whether he still thinks the January 6th insurrection was an "inside job" led by the FBI. If he's going to lead the DOJ, that must be established now.

"Wow, we are not covering America's best." - Nicolle Wallace after reporting on the attorney general nominee crushing ED medication and doing power drinks so he could go all night.

Good morning! Happy Tuesday. Be kind, be decent, but don't take a drip of shit from anyone. Rise, shine, and have the day you need. XO

once again thinking about the fact that this is all just OUT THERE and we can only see it through the eyes of telescopes

Oh God. What’s he going to give Marjorie Taylor Greene??

If Trump can install walking honeypot marks like Pete Hegseth and Matt Gaetz into his cabinet, it will tell us all we need to know about how unchecked his power is. These are obscene nominations.

FWIW: Picking Matt Gaetz is utter insanity (and further narrows the GOP Majority, whatever it ends up being). But I'm grateful, in a way, that Trump has pissed off the Senate and made his unfitness clear in a way that EVEN Republicans recognize. It helps Dems do work they're not yet up to.

I have a long list of people the Senate should be contacting during any potential confirmation hearings for Matt Gaetz. I'm looking forward to providing testimony on this and many other matters, like when he "joked" about setting off explosives in the Capitol. www.mesoscalenews.com/p/matt-gaetz...

hey bluesky, on my way to work today I went to a coffee shop today to buy coffee and there was a lady with a baby in a stroller leaving so I said 'can I grab the door for you?' She said yes so I did then another person said 'can I give you a platypus sticker cuz you were nice?'

Nearly 400 books removed from school libraries in one Tennessee county. Based on my skim of the list, most of them appear to be books by women, authors of color, &/or LGBTQ+ authors. www.nashvillescene.com/news/pithint...

Wow. Tulsi Gabbard as DNI. Dem Senate staffers better start watching podcast interviews of her from the last 4 years, because there is some unbelievable stuff out there.

people who use goodreads: jeff bezos owns goodreads and if you want a better alternative there is a black woman owned company called storygraph that you can use to replace it. you can transfer all of your data from goodreads to storygraph and have your mind be free of trumpie jeff bezos! win win. 💙

Librarians moving dystopian novels to the nonfiction shelves.

Happy hump day, BlueSky.

Good morning, Bluesky!☕
