Gee, it's sure s relief that we didn't elect a woman to lead our country! Everyone knows they're too emotional! /s

Vouchers are a scam to gut public education and funnel that money to religious orgs with no legal requirements to actually teach children facts, or even hire qualified teachers.

Seems not ideal 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yup. I'll drop everything and run if I have to.

Thinking today of Benjamin Franklin, who wore an old suit (and no wig) before the king and court of France, to represent his nation—while it was fighting for its existence

I call this photo "America in a Nutshell"

all the russiagate stuff was true and trump just successfully fired the right people, obstructed justice and pardoned his co-conspirators to get away with it

and this is consistent with 25 years of “the global war on sex trafficking,” in which lawmakers, NGOs, and law enforcement consistently backed policies and programs that increased people’s risk of being trafficked and endangered people who were trafficked

Classroom/Library enrollment was down pretty bad in February. National chaos and uncertainly likely has something to do with it. Can you help me make sure that all the educators on bluesky know Skype a Scientist exists and is ready to connect them with scientists? Every RT helps! #EduSky #STEMEd

this Adrienne Rich poem from the @yalereview.bsky.social archives sucker punched me this am

If you believed their "we're fine with LGB just not T" bullshit, you're an easy mark and I don't know what else to tell you. White Christian Nationalism is coming for us all. We cannot let them divide us or leave anyone behind who is in their crosshairs.

One of my all time fave movies 😉

Awesome, concentration camps for the mentally ill. Now I also have to worry about them taking my anxiety meds too 🤬😡🤬 Also, this man looks like a 100 year old handbag & sounds like a 90 year old pack a day smoker on top of his COMPLETE AND UTTER LACK OF qualifications.

Woot! Hooray for small victories!

when they're dead [we'll] stand on their graves

Hold the Line! #CoupKluxKlan

We should be taking to the streets, must the majority of people here are too poor to miss work for a protest. That's why the right has been destroying the middle class for the last 40 years. Can't fight back when you're too busy treading water.

I thought he was women's "protector"? Looks like he's a rapist protecting other rapists at the expense of women...

Fuckin A!

There appear to be at least three separately operating heel factions breaking things within the government in wholly different ways right now. There's the Miller-headed immigration one, the DOGE/Elon one, and a Project 2025 OMB one. This dynamic hasn't showed up in mainstream reporting at all.

Looks oddly familiar, I wonder why? 🤔

Jesus fucking christ. Thankfully, all my documents have been updated & agree. My passport expires in 2028, I wonder if they'll let me renew it by then...
