An fitting piece of cinema for the times for those with a knowledge of history and a dark sense of humor #LifeOfBrian youtu.be/3DXyRsOQ9Is

@johnniejae.bsky.social - I believe your story was shared as part of the interview with Sarah Jones

Listened to this the other day. Another reminder though that we need solidarity and community #disability #intersectionality #BIPOC podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/k...

Happy #IdesOfMarch to all that celebrate 🎉

Does anyone else remember learning about #appeasement during WWII? It didn’t work then, it won’t work now. #StopAppeasing47 @schumer.senate.gov @johnfetterman.com

Remember the good old days when this was a comedy movie? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadia...

I will henceforth be referring to the triad of musk, trump, and vance as the three musk-a-turds.

All brilliantly spot on

I legit would want to see a cage match between Zelenskyy and either of the three musk-a-turds. Mostly because I’m 99.99% sure Zelenskyy could easily beat any of them in a fair 1:1 fight.

Trump doesn't care. This so-called "great reset" is actually just a mass culling. Everyone seen as "useless eaters" regardless of race is facing the loss of their EARNED benefits, including medical care. No camps, just do absolutely NOTHING for the elderly poor and working classes till they're gone.

A federal judge signaled that he will require Elon Musk’s team to begin preserving any documents that could potentially be subject to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests. This move is part of an effort to overturn a

@ologies.bsky.social - all of our little secret

Feeling like this season of American has already jumped the shark

@aoc.bsky.social @sanders.senate.gov @rbreich.bsky.social @godpod.bsky.social @mcuban.bsky.social @markhamillofficial.bsky.social @pearlmania500.bsky.social pick a date for a nationwide strike- like and share if you’re in to let them know you are too

Litmus test question- would you rather be mistaken for being trans or mistaken for being a nazi? If you’d rather be mistaken for a nazi, you can fuck off.

Or maybe you’re being too much of an apologist for democrats that are sitting on their hands as our government collapses in real time

I got your waste, fraud, and abuse right here

@aoc.bsky.social: "Every time you see Tom Homan, every time you see Kristi Noem... understand that they are taking attention, focus, dollars, and real resources away from actual drug enforcement, trafficking enforcement, and actually going after and trying to investigate really harmful activity."

Is #Zelensky aware of the #MichaelMoore film #CanadianBacon ? I’d be curious as to both of their takes on what is going on. Could @thedailyshow.com arrange something?

This classic 1995 flick might be even funnier now. #CanadianBacon

Watched it last night- and just shaking my head on how spot on this was…

#CanadianBacon #JohnCandy #CanadaProud #CDNpoli #USApoli #Trump Seriously, everything to a T in this clip on Trump. It’s Trump and his administrations playbook youtube.com/watch?v=uxXM...

#CanadianBacon #JohnCandy #CanadaProud #TeamCarney #CDNpoli #ONpoli #USApoli #Trump #TrumpsPlaybook 51st state! How did John Candy in Canadian Bacon 30 years ago be this accurate?!?! youtube.com/watch?v=o6hr...

Remember when #CanadianBacon was panned be cause it was too far-fetched? Turns out it was prophetic.

"Surrender pronto, or we'll level Toronto..." This Sunday at 7pm Pacific, join me for a watch party of Canadian Bacon (1995), in which an American president manufactures reasons to invade Canada to distract from unpopular policy decisions. youtu.be/_BaR5DxgY-c?... #CanadianBacon #ElbowsUp

Can we get #CanadianBacon to trend here? #MichaelMoore seems to have made some uncanny predictions about 30 years ago. The part he missed is that all of the villains would be in an alliance with each other and control vast piles of wealth.

@pearlmania500.bsky.social have you ever seen Canadian Bacon? Damn this week smells familiar… wonder what Michael Moore is up to lately? Writing for the season finale of America?
