This Super Bowl Sunday, here's a reminder of what real courage looks like.

Sci-Fi Author: In my book I invented the Torment Nexus as a cautionary tale Tech Company: At long last, we have created the Torment Nexus from classic sci-fi novel Don't Create The Torment Nexus

Democrats lost b/c they refused to offer what was sorely needed - an end to genocide, meaningful labor reform, real health care, education loan clemency. We can moan about people who didn't fall in for piss-flavored water... Or we can /ask why there was piss in it/. Please. Why was there piss?

"See? Are you happy now re: Gaza, lefties?!" Oh! Were your faves doing something positive about Gaza? Were they willing to lose to keep it burning? Is someone being a little loud, hmm? Eat shit. You never once gave a damn.

It's the first, rent is due by the fourth and we're still $250 off of that, and another $200 off of our other bills. idk how our power and internet haven't been shut off yet, at least one of them. Share if you can!! paypal.me/snowchildofmine #MutualAid #TransMutualAid #HelpSky #helpfolkslive2025

if a major politician held an emergency rally about the current ongoing coup by the richest man in the world, I think people would go to it. Shit is well and truly fucked. I can think of a couple of people who should do that right now.

“If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even the sinners do the same.”

Damn.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

just getting it out there that i am firm believer that you cannot fight trans misogyny without considering intersectionality. look inward and confront any racist ideology that you may find lingering, even if it's hidden under layers or done unintentionally. unlearning never ends.

Primary every Democrat. Arrest every Republican.

Anthony Mackie out here speaking truth and so many hit dogs are howling. If honor, integrity, and decency are Cap's values? Then no, that isn't particularly American. At all. Especially now.

Incremental change was always a lie. Offering us nickels and dimes while suppressing COVID response and funding a genocide, and then they wonder why no one believes in them. Democrats are just as much of a threat because they actively destroy any real alternatives to keep their donors on top.

AI is billionaires' endgame to control our lives without our consent. And it's honestly going pretty well for them.

Primary every Democrat. Arrest every Republican.

Hold fast to your sense of reality. Billionaires and bigots have bought our sources of truth. But they cannot buy our empathy.

"It's going to get so much worse." "You won't like what comes next." "Enjoy the..." Shut. Up. Increasing the overall feeling of doom is op shit, even if you're not an actual op. We already know. All you're doing is increasing feelings of helplessness and making it harder to act.

Trump’s fascist mass raids and deportations are set to begin Tuesday. Be an ally. We are not helpless. Here are 7 action items you can start now to help protect our immigrant neighbors. Read & share: www.qasimrashid.com/p/trumps-mas...

Do not Do not Do NOT Announce or even hint on your social media that you’re doing illegal or potentially illegal things. Even if for excellent reasons. You will be a target and make the people you aid targets.

Fuck these fools. We ball.

"The arc of the moral universe" sure is a cute way of describing the tears, sweat, and so much blood of the oppressed. Not even MLK meant it the way y'all use it. It's not /magic/. It's sacrifice.

I’m not trans and I’m not going to speak for trans people but I am goddamn sick of ‘moderates’ blaming them for their own oppression.

... Why are we still waiting on the next Luigi?

Food for thought.

We need to delete the idea in fantasy media and elsewhere that magic is just STEM or a toolbox - a bag of neat tricks to exploit. Any magic system that doesn't involve love, culture, and identity, full of faith and taboo, is boring as fuck as to me and such a damn waste. Europe ruins everything...

Welcome to Bluesky 💙🦋

... I'm gonna be real. I keep forgetting that Portugal is a thing.

Most dudes would much rather fantasize about killing r-pists instead of addressing the allegations in their friend circle.

I just almost caused the dumbest fire of my life. Filled bowl with spaghetti, put entire spaghetti pot in microwave, closed microwave, set buttons, and then went... oh no.

Depression is going two plus years without changing your garage door lights. Once you do it, the light is startling and it feels like it was so easy. But it was never that easy. It took 2 years because it had to.

capitalism filters the most short-sighted and cruel members of society to the positions of greatest power, those qualities being necessary for prioritizing short-term shareholder value over less important things like the planet not going on fire

The "booty cheek" of a big chicken breast is the best part. That is all.

...see you out there...

Fun fact: If you're in the Pacific time zone and you start watching Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves at exactly 8:44PM, you will most likely enjoy the movie because it is a very good movie i think

i’m doing my part 🏳️‍⚧️🫡

This is a really interesting take from @adamconover.net. For a while I've been wanting to participate in an organization, but finding an entry point to get consistently engaged has been difficult. I hadn't thought of it as a systemic problem in this way.
