Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

The political climate has got me out here like, "Can u jailbreak a kindle?" #fuckjeffbezos

Nothing like throwing a grenade and peacing out before it truly goes off.

📢 “He’s trying to steal Medicaid to enrich himself. He’s gutting NASA to line his pockets with SpaceX. He’s looting everything good in America for private profit.” - @aoc.bsky.social at today’s #SaveOurServices NYC rally. The fight isn’t over. Join us: go.savepublicservices.com

If you were wondering if there is a word to describe how the United States is currently being governed, why, yes, there is: kakistocracy!

I'm okay with Trump being a king. Here are some whose legacies I hope he can match: -Charles I -Louis XVI -James II -Macbeth -Joffrey Baratheon

Oh, look what normal countries do when a former president leads a far right coup attempt.

Look, as @fivefourpod.bsky.social points out, Trump is throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks as a way to test boundaries. But also, I think it's because he's so full of shit that he knew he'd never run out. Helpful listen: the fact that the hosts can still laugh makes me want to cry less.

so far going anti-woke leads to less money and planes falling out of the sky

Your friendly neighborhood librarian here...buy physical copies of your favorite books, especially challenged or banned books. Preferably from small local merchants. That's all; carry on. #Read #BookSky #Resist 📚

Trying to do some preliminary research on how I can use translation to help fuck over Trump, but the search led to a bunch of articles I'd forgotten about saying that Trump is such a shitty public speaker that he makes intepreters' jobs harder. Not what I was looking for, but a fun reminder anyway.

Balto didn't run so that you couldn't walk because of polio. Vaccines are for American heroes. Says so right on the poster. #rfk #VaccinesSaveLives

Watching an MTA employee kick trash directly onto the tracks feels like a metaphor for something right now, but I don't know what exactly. #mta

Following recent attacks on our communities in the US, I will be releasing "You Can't Spell Stonewall Without The T" on Wed 26th Feb All proceeds will be donated to GLAD Law to support their fight back against Trump’s anti-LGBTQ+ executive orders www.glad.org #Stonewall #Trump #LGBWithTheT

Look, I'm just saying, "Hey, hey, RFK, how many kids you killed today?" already rhymes. #rfk #hhs

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

I'm not a lawyer, but this has all gotta be enough executive overreach for impeachment, no? Dems need to go on the warpath and Republicans need to grow a fucking backbone. Many have stated a dislike for Trump. But they're willing to sell their souls for power while the Dems sit back and do nothing.

Do you think we'll forget just because you take it off a website? There's a whole phenomenon about the Berenstain bears' name; people don't let shit go. Trans people exist and always have and always will. #stonewall #pride #yourewrongabout

Pleased to announce my personal mourning period has ended and my era of sending angry emails has begun.
