History you need to know: The Montgomery Bus Boycott went on for almost a year.

🇺🇸 💰 🤥

Folks, I see a lot of you recently feeling free to use some variation of the "R" word for mentally disabled, including appending the last four letters as suffix to describe people you don't like. I'm not down with that, so if you do it in my comments, I'm gonna hide that shit at least. Be better.

With Pinocchiogles leading the charge. The time to stop acting surprised by literally anything they’re doing was 10 years ago.

Who was she bothering?

All comic book fans know that the villains might team up for a while and seem unstoppable but they actually hate each other and will turn on one another in a heartbeat.

what’s happening on twitter right now shows just how important it was for left of center people to leave it earlier these assholes need a target, and deprived of their preferred options they are ripping each other to shreds

Me: I'm gonna buckle down and get shit done once the new year starts! Also me: Has a Billion appointments, a fucked up shoulder, and is in the Hard Time of the year for pain/mental health Me: New year new meeee 🙃

Greenland has universal healthcare, gender equality, and clean energy. Can they take over the USA instead?

Can we just admit that we NEED immigrants for our economy to run, from agriculture to high tech? We’re a goddamn nation of immigrants, aren’t we? Let’s be proud of our immigrant heritage!

Love it when bookshops or libraries arrange their books appropriately...

this picture still blows my mind two years later. it looks straight out of a sci-fi movie but it’s REAL.

Recently took a peek at Twitter and the disinformation is getting substantially more dangerous. Someone could get killed. The tactics of constantly repeating outright lies, targeting specific people, repurposing years-old footage and presenting them as new is getting to another level. It’s scary.

Some light reading from yesteryear:

The GOP ⤵️ Out with 2024: Moral Bankruptcy In with 2025: Moral Bankruptcy on steroids

Why go to overcrowded malls where you will possibly have a piano dropped on you to do your last minute shopping... ...when you COULD go to your local comics shop for the perfect gifts? Games, action figures, graphic novels, kids comics...YOU'LL BE THE HERO OF THE HOLIDAY!

more evidence that trump doesn’t have as much juice as people think!

“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist” James Baldwin

Videogames used to have joysticks, now they have controllers. Trading joy for control doesn't seem like a good deal.

RFK Jr supports ending vaccine requirements for attending public schools. Tulsi Gabbard has regularly defended murderous dictators like Bashar al-Assad. Pete Hegseth has promoted baseless theories about January 6th and joked that “women shouldn’t have the right to vote.” Welcome to the idiocracy!

Another thing I made this year: Real and implied birds.

JENNINGS: “I think there may be some elasticity in the American people on accepting certain short term economic issues…” Republicans continue to find new creative ways to tell you Trump’s policies will hurt the economy and regular people.

This definitely happened in real life.

Tennessee book bans be like 👇🏽🫤📚

Dear Elon, Why stop at Mars? You’re a plutocrat! Aim for Pluto! We’ll all be here on Earth to root you on. George

Homeboy stopped the wrong lady (H/T @agirlhasnopres.bsky.social )

Maybe rfk can get rid of modern plumbing and the sewage systems and we all just throw our piss and shit out the windows again and we die at 30

We must protect our health insurance CEOs at all costs !!!

Nearly 100 national security officials wrote an open letter to Senators John Thune and Chuck Schumer asking for closed door hearings on the nomination of Tulsi Gabbard to serve as Director of National Intelligence (DNI).

Why do some journalists do this nonsense?

What a time to be alive

At a grappling tournament once, a competitor ended up with a dislocated shoulder. After the bout, he sat around, scrolling through TikTok. My wife (another competitor) asked if he needed anything. He declined. He was waiting for an Uber to take him to an E.R. It was cheaper than an ambulance. #UHC

I don't believe that anyone sees Elon carrying his child X (short for X Æ A-Xii) around DC like a prop and actually believes that he cares about this kid. It's cynical, as are the people pretending to fawn over it.

hallmark christmas movie: a handsome young man goes to the big city during the holidays to kill a ceo and finds nation's love along the way

The brutal Bashar Assad dictatorship fell in Syria in just 11 days. It was sudden and unexpected, after a 24-year reign starting in 2000. His father Hafez Assad ruled the nation from 1971 to 2000. Given this development, Putin cannot be feeling comfortable about his own fate.

absolute best case scenario for a parent writing in to Reddit about their trans son

It’s so interesting to see these urgent exhortations to reestablish decorum. I have not seen evidence of a “coarsening” of American society. If anything, the opposite: I’ve seen thousands of individuals asserting their humanity and protesting the indignity of the system UHC profits from.

What's a good book to gift a very devoted girl dad to read to his 4 year old? I got a father daughter journal for him to write back and forth with his older daughter, but I'm looking for a great book to read to the younger. The gift is for him, but I know he'll love things focused on his girls.

Boomers are nostalgic for how much better things used to be. But forget the part where wealthy people were taxed over 90% from the 1940s-60s. Want nice things? Less wealth inequality helps. A Lot. (Also like so many things, Reagan screwed us all.)

It's cute that journalists at the WaPo think because deporting immigrants is not legally or logistically easy it won't happen. No where in @nickmiroff.bsky.social article does it say who would stop Trump from making it happen using more planes or officers. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

I was thinking about this the other day with that story about the two teens stabbed for “not speaking English” saying “but there are procedural obstacles to keep it from getting that bad!” is wilful denial of the plan’s other goal: empowering monsters to gleefully take matters into their own hands

Oh, look, a prominent grifter has finally made their way to Bluesky (block) Done and done!
