Yeah, I’m going to be using BlueSky a lot less now. The sheer amount of human suffering and news of what act of fascistic evil America 47’s up to now is just too much for me right now.

Trump regime tweets this wordless video—nothing but the hum of an engine & the clanking of chains—comprised of closeup shots of a human being shackled for deportation. This is, no hyperbole, fascist fetish porn.

Good thing they didn’t pay someone $5 to write that summary.

I've noted some of the procedural things Democrats could be doing in Congress, but this point from @edgeofsports.bsky.social's great piece in the Nation deserves emphasis. This is basic politics, and it's baffling that every Democrat isn't doing it every day. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

They're publishing alongside Nazis on a platform that monetizes and amplifies racist, antisemtic, and anti-trans voices. It doesn't matter if the substacker you like isn't a Nazi. They are publishing their content in a Nazi bar. That's the point.

"Why should I join Pillowfort? It's so niche. You aren't Facebook or Twitter." Yes, that's the point: We aren't Facebook or Twitter. We're Pillowfort. We're proud to be niche. Our community is great.

it’s also obvious that the only common thread behind the firings is that everyone is “probationary” and thus doesn’t have the same employment protections there has been not a single effort to determine if any of those probationary employees are performing well or working in critical infrastructure

Normally I would say this is someone losing their mind in Facebook slop but I 100% believe this.

If someone shows you data saying 12 million people fraudulently collect Social Security every month simply by claiming to be 110+ years old but not dead, you could say “But that’s more people than live in New Jersey! Something’s wrong with this number.” Or you could be like Musk.

Black history is only offensive if you side with enslavers, segregationists, and other racists. It slaps if you have morality.

⚠️ BREAKING: U.S. 🇺🇸 reports 4.676 million new COVID-19 cases in a single week, with 668,000 daily infections. Currently, 1 in every 72 Americans is infected with COVID-19. Transmission rates are now higher than at any point during 59.3% of the pandemic.

Mask. Stay home when you can. Get vaccinated. Literally do all the same shit you did in 2020, this is not over. It never will be.

On this #16th day of #BlackHistoryMonth, I am sharing a newsletter post about the 1829 Lafayette Slave Revolt. This is an ongoing research project in which I am engaged. open.substack.com/pub/prisoncu...

happy presidents’ day everyone i wrote about DEI and how the anti-woke brigade loves eugenics www.theverge.com/politics/613...

and that’s why so many editors won’t do it.

Yesterday in Miami an Israel-supporter shot two people he thought were Palestinians. The victims weren’t Palestinians but Israeli tourists and after getting shot they posted “Death to Arabs” on Facebook from the hospital.

Favorite paragraph from this:

Cleveland, Ohio. I judge every city i have ever been in based off of Cleveland, Ohio because no city I’ve ever been in makes me more tired than Cleveland, Ohio. It is all 100% personal and i will gladly admit also irrational and just thinking about Cleveland makes me want to lay down.

We have been saying for decades: Disney was never fucking "woke", no matter how many first gay cyclops cops, or 3 frames space lesbian characters they put in their animated movies. they couldn't wait to drop the mask. don't support Disney and that include: Marvel Studios, Lucasfilm and 20th C.S.

Road to the VRA: 60 years ago today, Dr. King told a gathering in Selma that “broader forms of civil disobedience” might be needed to win voting rights, saying, “Far from letting up our efforts in Selma and Dallas County, we’re going to broaden our activities here.”

The FAA firings will continue until they stop all these planes from crashing

It's Yomi time!

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!

But aside from the fact that people make jokes calling things ACAB that aren't the cops all the time, is there really no connection between that & hating DEI? Are cops not inherently antiblack, founded in slave patrols, who disproportionately target & kill Black folks?

for a while Musk really did seem like the most relatable billionaire. yeah, if i had that kind of money I'd want to go to space and make sports cars, etc. Turned out that was just PR, and what he really wanted out of life was to be seen as funny by teenaged Nazis on the Internet

A Jewish American Zionist shot two Israeli Jews because he thought they were Palestinian

But the media will report it as the death knell for all challenges to Trump’s power grab.
