Why won't those filthy proles breed like they used to? Who will wait our tables and toil in our factories?

*makes world worse and more costly for having children* Why aren't you guys having more kids

It may help normal people without long-running political fixations to understand: this insane bullshit didn’t explode out of nowhere in 2023, nor did it suddenly begin in 2018. If you’ve been following events, then you’ve been watching this dog and pony show since the early 2000s, at latest.

Another thing I especially love ofmd Fandom for is that there are a lot of 30+, 40+ and older people. In my twenties, fandoms were full of mostly younger people, teenagers and young adults. Now, I can see much more adults in fandom spaces, and I couldn't be happier.

One of JK Rowling's TERF friends was just arrested for assaulting a pregnant woman and a 10 year old child. She threatened to post pictures of them on Facebook calling them pedophiles for being at a LGBTQ event. We told you this would happen.

Yes, random weirdo, chanting 'death to the IDF' is *exactly* like saying "Death to The NHS Nurses"

My submission to this event! Of course it is this one :D (I haven't got time to do any other themed illustration...). And with the Bi flag. Rhaegan x Astarion #bg3 #bg3events #bg3pridewalk#Pridemonth #Pride #LGBTIQ #Queerartist #Herestia #OC #BG3 #BG3Fanart #astarion #bisexual #LGBTIQ+ #Durge

The people REALLY wanted to see a in-real-life AU for some godless reason. #art #dudrow #astarion

A joy to march in NYC Pride with the people's champ Tish James 🏳️‍🌈

This is a nuclear option. Senate Rs want to violate the Byrd rule by creating long-term deficits, using 312 of the CBA to assert that they aren’t But they know the parls will say they can’t do that So Rs are refusing to meet w/ her so they can pretend they didn’t ignore her when they do it anyway

Alright everyone. Republicans are going to force a vote on their gender affirming care provision even though it violates Senate rules. They’ll need 60 votes to keep it in. Now is the time to make your voice heard and ask your Senators to stand on the side of health care freedom.

this is pedantic but it simply IS NOT TERRORISM to support the defeat of and advocate attacks against a MILITARY.

If you google “a lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting its shoes on,” the top result is a link to X that misattributes the quote I can’t even

IDF soldiers have now themselves admitted they have been ordered to murder aid-seekers in Gaza. Truly an atrocity built on atrocity. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

interesting to see how much more coverage here we're getting of a chant at a music festival than the IDF being ordered to shoot and murder people in Gaza who are seeking aid!

it's easier to believe a wholesome transgender church climber is doing witchcraft than it is to believe a cis person is stalking us, apparently. love and solidarity with Jay <3

the intolerance tag: it’s an account wide tag and it’s because nazis from twitter brigaded a “anti-white” post and bluesky’s first instinct is always to defend white people feelings. this was the post:

HI I STILL NEED MONEY EVEN IF IT DOESNT SOUND AS URGENT

If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029: - $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion - $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million - $8 billion for hiring/retention - Billions more.

so like. there's this long-lasting ad strategy wherein you make an ad so "bad" or "unbelievable" that viewers can't help but share it with their friends and audiences. which means those people see the ad. which means more people are advertised to. so it's actually a really good ad.

The brilliant Bob Vylan making the bbc sad

None of these pieces discuss progressives' frustration with Labour being *culturally* indistinguishable from the Tories. Labour has embraced - often accelerated - the cruelty, authoritarianism and hypocrisy of the Tories and we wanted better.

Infighting. Labour have brought about a massive clusterfuckery about the veiled threats of deselection MPs received from whips as a result of rebel MPs doing their job and listening to the public. All of the Labour front bench need to be booted.

it should be just fine to say ‘death to [government]’ or ‘death to [military organisation]’. that is literally what ‘free speech’ is for. it’s not about being shitty to minorities. it’s about the right to despise, out loud, governments and institutions. the labour government is openly fascist.

Yo China and North Korea ain't got shit on us anymore when it comes to petty political censorship.

you were told communism is bad by the people who said segregation is good.

The BBC didn't air Kneecap live over concerns about that they would say about Gaza so instead aired this British punk (pop punk?) duo called Bob Vylan who uhm lead the crowd in chants of the following

If anyone tries to make me wear this, they will be wearing a cast.

Update on this is the US border agency claimed it was actually because of his past drug use, but they also claimed it was because he had a Spanish passport, that he had a bong with him, that he came as an immigrant, and that he has US family, and none of those things appear to be true. Clown country

the Star Tribune just called me and told me they would not be publishing the obituary I wrote for my father as it is “unfair to him” and “in poor taste” so here it is and fuck the strib ✌🏻

Do they want to kill gullible people? Is that the eugenics here?

I actually don’t like the ceaseless horrors. They’re starting to get annoying

college-age teens and young adults: majority are pretty chill and normal about trans people the ninety-year-old bastards who run the universities: we are housing the disgusting trans students in a single off-campus portaloo for your protection

In the Senate, he prevailed on every one of his shockingly unfit nominees — Hegseth, Gabbard, RFK Jr, Patel, the lot. The Senate was going to "resist" arm-twisting. And then every one of the "concerned" GOP took a knee. My guess is Yes. Hope I'm wrong.
