worth calling your reps over, imo. they’re stealing your land. www.hcn.org/articles/sen...

It takes 3.5% leading a mass uprising and shutting down the Capitol for weeks at a time. Waiving a bunch of signs in public parks for a single day isn't going to magically do it.

This is some bleak shit. Historians literally outsourcing the creative and research process to a thieving algorithm ripping off the IP of their own fellow-historians. Says everything that they’re doing it from a Google office. Hacks. They should be ashamed. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/16/m...

I think a lot of the terror of the modern age can be understood by the fact that the Internet accelerated the development of the worst type of person, the "Anti-Intellectual Nerd."

The only king I acknowledge.

Really dig Yuko Gunji, a kintsugi artist in NYC. Kintsugi is the Japanese method of repairing broken ceramics with lacquer and gold. Instead of trying to make things look new again, it highlights the faults, showing how something can be beautiful even after it was broken. IG gunjiyuko.kintsugi

the John Wick universe is what you get if someone explained everything about Vampire: the Masquerade except that the characters are vampires

as always, @johnrogers.bsky.social said it best

One block over from the White House: the aspirational security line setup

A Democratic Mayor arrested. A Democratic Congresswoman indicted. A Democratic Senator tackled and detained. A Democratic State Representative killed. A Democratic State Representative in critical condition. We can all see where this is going.

Bonus Discworld QOTD, from The Wee Free Men “Nac Mac Feegle! The Wee Free Men! Nae king! Nae quin! Nae laird! Nae master! We willna' be fooled again!”

The revolution is full of 60-year-old women who love their trans kids.

God, I've never seen this thing we've all experienced to some degree articulated so perfectly.

I'm going to live to be 950 years old because of the elixir

they really fumbled it with this guy huh

Remember kids the cops and the national guard can handle one huge protest 1 20k in one spot is easy but 20 protests with 1000 people happening all at once in different areas of a city will stretch them to the breaking point

remember this next time someone says to sit at a protest

Finally

relooted is being made by a team of developers from numerous african countries, but only its white south african creative director was able to demo it to summer game fest attendees. this was most certainly not always the plan

Trump cancels deal on 4 Snake River dams--putting tribes in charge of salmon recovery, seeking alternative energy sources--that Biden negotiated in 2023 to end 30+ yrs of litigation, uncertainty, and cost. The odds of this not plunging the region back into the morass that everyone hates seem tiny.

Someone mentioned Queen having the Tiktok voice and now I'm imagining a voiced Deltarune where instead of using it for all her lines, Kat Callaghan is cast to do it herself and honestly I kinda will accept nothing else

A small Hornet to help combat the horrors 🌿 #Silksong #illustration

there’s got to be some kind of statute of limitations on this crap. I get moral hazard, I get all of that, it’s just completely insane to say that this guy who built an American life for 30 years isn’t American.

Two in one: snacking as I post this 😅

“You are over here gooning to the shadows on the cave wall” is the new “cellar door”

de Blasio re: literally anyone who isn’t Andrew Cuomo right now

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state Keep that same energy of support for her

there’s a reason bluesky is a retirement home for millennial posters - we grew up before algorithms and were not used to having content shoved in our faces unasked for we chose to click on those terrible threads ourselves

Whole lot of people saying “she must resign” who should be saying “I am introducing articles of impeachment.”

You do not need answers you cowardly fool. What happened was extremely clear. What you and your colleagues need to do is fight back in every way at your disposal, and then some. Start by promoting immediate impeachment for fascist scum Trump and Noem. Make that the main topic of conversation.

this is a good wake up call for elected Dems to realize what’s happening and what’s going to happen not generally, not in the abstract, but to them personally shut it all down and start acting like you’re in immediate danger, because you are

Whenever we make food and Muffin waddles into the kitchen we look at her and say "dat's not for puppies" like she isn't deaf
