Democratic Leaders Stand Real Still In Hopes No One Notices Them

Captain America: Brave New World is really just fabulous. Anthony Mackie is wonderful as Cap and brings vulnerability and compassion, but also asks the questions we all ask: am I good enough? Do I deserve the position I have? Whether you're into superheroes or not, that's relatable to all of us.

This was one of my favourite You're Dead to Me episodes! Highly recommend! #CatherineDeMedici @gregjenner.bsky.social open.spotify.com/episode/3J1e...

This is quite significant in many ways: the overt thuggery, Trump’s barely suppressed fury at being contradicted by a woman, the governor’s standing up, the total abandonment of the pretense of federalism, the continuing use of trans Americans the way Hitler used Jews.

It is mind-boggling to me that people say "but I had to comply with the fascists because otherwise there would be some cost—" NO FUCKING KIDDING. Did you think you'd never have to make a hard choice in Fascist America? That you wouldn't be asked to sacrifice someone and be rewarded for it?? JFC

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

We join 230+ organisations calling on all F-35 partners, like the UK gov, to take action in line with their legal obligations and immediately halt the direct and indirect transfer of F-35 parts and components to Israel. Read more here: amn.st/3637

This would probably be a good time to reread The Postman or to rewatch the movie. If you don't understand the necessity of reasonably priced and accessible communication by post, access to mail-in voting, or being able to get prescriptions delivered to your door, you're probably an out of touch ass.

America was warned... And didn't listen.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

This is a letter I did not want to write. There is a WWII-era saying: “If there’s a Nazi at the table and ten other people sitting there talking to him, you got a table with eleven Nazis.” If you voted for #Trump, you are a #Nazi. brandy-schillace.medium.com/the-letter-b...

Ready to take literally any fucking action yet, America? Irony is dead and so is the American experiment.

Bernie Sanders: "The struggle against Trump, the struggle against oligarchy, which is led by Elon Musk ... that's not gonna be won here in Capitol Hill. It's gonna be won by millions of people all over this country standing up and saying, 'we fought and died for democracy.'"

This image sums it up. Attributed to Banksy, but I've not found a proper source for the image. #USCoup #FracturedStatesOfAmerica

Tormund and I were having a nice bit of playtime, and didn't realise Pixel was in the window... She had to get in on the action, so things got silly... As often happens with silly cats around! #CatSky 😻

Spent the day listening to John Prine and I'm feeling restored. Prime Prine time is time well spent. From the first album to the last, just masterworks all the way through. #MusicSky

Can we all just be really clear that a @petebuttigieg.bsky.social / @aoc.bsky.social ticket in 2028 is the only way to beat Trump and get these fascists out! Start now. No equivocating or trying to pander to the far right. No more old white guys or legacy politicians. Make America Passionate Again

Musk, Trump, and Vance have removed any and all doubt that theirs is a neo-Nazi/white supremacist regime. America is now in the hands of blatant fascists and there is no time left to forget. The fight to remove them from power must happen now.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

I’m in Munich and people keep asking me to decode Vance’s speech. OK: In Vance English “free speech” means “Let Musk run your elections” and “democracy” means “let Russia run your elections.” Now move on. 2025 is about what Europeans do, not what Americans say.

Woke up at 5 this morning, thought it was because of my bladder, until I realised I was actually woken up by my neighbour having a mental health crisis... Or being murdered. The screams all sound the same at 5am. Ambulance attended, but seriously, cannot wait to move next month.

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.
