Glad you guys have welcomed that "formerly" Islamophobic LGF monster into the fold but I'll never get past him serving heaping stacks of Saint Pancakes (look it up) to his nasty hordes before setting them loose on the internet. He can forever fuck himself. And his taste in jazz sucks, too.

Every new generation I have to hear how much the olds suck, especially us boomers, and every time I am less than fucking impressed.

Dolly Parton: ”The beauty of the Imagination Library is that it unites us all—regardless of politics—because every child deserves the chance to dream big and succeed." Panicked Gov. Braun:

I'm putting off much-needed elective surgery because the world is falling apart & I don't want to be that poor bastard in the apocalypse movies who wakes up on the table all alone & then screams WHAT DAY IS IT?!? as he plods through the hospital wheeling a useless IV behind him looking for Pringles.

Trump on Caine: "You're not allowed to do that, but they did that." Ken Paxton: "THEY? Get Caine in here and a towel for my lap. I got me some gender testing to do."

We just won a court order stopping DOGE and unauthorized, unelected, and unvetted individuals like Elon Musk from accessing people's private data and blocking federal funds. We will keep fighting to protect all Americans from this administration’s destruction.

AOC is delivering the kind of vitality, spontaneity, and righteousness that the Democrats have been missing for years and exactly what these times require. It's exactly why we MUST start talking about Richard Blumenthal or Chris Coons as our next viable candidates for prez in '28!!!

His stylist is the naked Terminator after he beat up those faux punk rockers for their clothes.

The Daily Beast: What is this Elon Salute what can it mean French Nazis: too Nazi for us

Texas thug AG Ken Paxton wants to look inside your daughter's panties, the sick fuck. abcnews.go.com/Sports/wireS...

Politics still matters. These guys are not political geniuses. They have a razor thin House majority and a lame duck president. Bush was more powerful after his reelection in 2004 and Harry Reid and other strategic Dems brought him down. It can be done now too if they will fight.

The @nytimes.com changed the story and has now added this info after I caught them last night. This is why I screenshot these stories. There was no editors note added nor did they point out that a stealth edit was made. h/t @shoq.bsky.social

If you've never been to NYC, I need to make something extremely clear: it is *IMPOSSIBLE* as a tourist to drive into Manhattan to visit some attraction, and then drive from attraction to attraction in Manhattan. You would spend more time looking for parking than doing anything else. This isn't real.

Here in Illinois, ten years ago we saw the consequences of a rampant ideological gutting of government. It genuinely harmed people. Our citizens hated it. Trust me – I was elected based in part on just how much they hated it.

It's early but it's safe to say Jason won what little is left of the internet today.

Best Jersey ever. #Canpoli #Canada #Hockey

Obvious by now that the anti-fascists with the biggest balls are mostly women. Just fearless stuff. Here's a small sample: AOC Vittoria Elliott Jasmine Crockett Danielle Sassoon Marisa Kabas etc. Men have mostly punted except for, you know, the punter.

What could go wrong? (I can think of like a dozen things, without giving it much thought) www.cnn.com/2025/02/20/p...

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

I am so sick of this shit. It’s a Sieg Heil. It’s a Nazi salute. Anyone who sees it knows. It’s ridiculous that legal departments presumably won’t let media call it what it is. Bannon made “a provocative gesture that resembled the salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally”? Fuck off.

Brie Brie, aka Bernie's former Press Secretary and Nonremovable Bloviating Clot, still completely sucks over at the bad place. We now return to regular Bluesky programming.

"They're putting persecuted Christian refugees in camps in the jungle" sounds like something Glenn Beck would accuse the Obama administration of doing and yet now it's a pillar of the Republican agenda.

Another way to put this: Musk and his twerps have exposed us to pandemics, broken science, stolen all your data, endangered the U.S. payments system, threatened air traffic control, and cut off HIV medication to 20m people in order to save ::checks notes:: 2/10th of a percent of the federal budget.

I'm planning on putting this saying and Nancy Mace's face on welcome mats. 100% of sales go to benefit the Transgender Law Center. If anyone is interested drop me a line.

William F. Buckley isn't rolling in his grave right now because of what's happened to the GOP. He's quietly hoping you forgot he's down there to avoid ridicule and embarrassment.

Trump: I AM A KING! NYT: Trump displays a "fondness for regal themes"

NYT, I know you’re tired of the legitimate Bluesky complaints about your errant journalism, horrible headlines, general suckiness, etc., but couldn’t you have at least given us the “R” for Strands today?

This is a social media video edited to highlight the sounds of chains. Real Nazi shit from the White House

Only a Trumper could think abandoning Europe for a decaying kleptocracy will offer the U.S. historic economic opportunities.

"Step by step, the United States of America is becoming part of a global fascist network. Do we care yet?"

America: Be Sri Lanka www.nytimes.com/2025/02/04/w...

Y'all figure this out yet?

What’s a move that is widely considered bad but you love it proudly?

School play gets canceled for "inappropriate content". In response students write [REDACTED], their own anti-censorship play skewering the school district, sells out performances, and ultimately takes gold at the Lenaea High School Theatre Festival. www.kqed.org/arts/1397192...

Go ahead. Let the people see you for what you are.

I will say again: The destruction of the CFPB—an agency that has brought in $20 billion over a little more than a decade despite having an annual budget that's less than what DOD has spent so far today—is the clearest sign none of this has anything to do with saving taxpayers money.

Elon Musk is an idiot on an almost inconceivable scale. He had his high-school toadies pull a random list from a database he doesn’t understand, and on that basis alone decided that 60 MILLION SOCIAL SECURITY ENROLLEES, out of 72 million total, are fraudulent. 83% fraudulent!

For those outside of metro Philly, the Inquirer is one of the few remaining major city papers owned by a nonprofit foundation, not by a billionaire.
