Right Wing Watch @rightwingwatch.bsky.social · 4w agoPastor Martin Sedra fumes that "America has created this gay version of Jesus Christ": "Jesus was not effeminate. Jesus was a bold lion. I always tell people Jesus was not a soft guy. He had six packs. He was the most ripped guy you'll ever meet."

"Kennedy Pushes Americans Toward Depression" there i fixed it
Miranda Yaver@mirandayaver.bsky.social · 3mo agoThis is such incredible bullshit. I am alive, thriving, and writing books on health policy/politics thanks to antidepressants. Antidepressants aren't for everyone, but they can be literal lifesavers. Attacking their prescribing & use is stigmatizing and dangerous. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/04/s...
The fact that Mamdani just seems like a cheerful normal guy who's policies are things like "we're going to tax second homes to fund pothole repairs" or whatever and yet this generates panicked responses like "This is basically Stalin's great purge turned up to eleven" is... telling. It tells things.

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.
ACLU's Cecilia Wang, who is arguing in the Supreme Court against Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship, is the daughter of Taiwanese immigrants. Norman Wong, the great-grandson of Wong Kim Ark, is outside the court. Ancestors are watching.
Everyone who is born here is (currently) a citizen by birthright!!!!! I am the first person in my immigrant American family to be born in the US. Everyone else, except a few of my younger cousins, were naturalized. This is all of our damn birthright.
Gillian Branstetter@gbbranstetter.bsky.social · 4mo ago“It feels like I’m meeting a historic moment both for so many families who might be affected by the executive order, but also for all Americans. This administration is really attacking a foundation stone of American life.”

My first (unhelpful, dumb) thoughts are that I need to call this young Azn boy's parents bc what the actual fuck is that child doing bringing shame on all of us and that the whole POINT of giving over your life to Delta Touchless as a New Yorker is that you spend 0 minutes in a LGA Terminal C line.
Megan Greenwell@greenwell.bsky.social · 5mo agocounted 25 ICE officers (most with ERO vests) during my 26-minute wait in the LGA Terminal C Touchless line this morning. every one of them was either standing doing nothing or slowly walking the length of the line doing nothing. at least four were in masks.
The trauma of this for that controller -- it is all so sad and preventable and fucking tragic
Adam Kinzinger@adamkinzinger.substack.com · 5mo agoTwo pilots dead at LaGuardia. A lone controller managing two simultaneous emergencies. The FAA is 3,000 controllers short. We will blame the human. We should fix the system. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

How come when a woman gets raped it's always "well what was she wearing" and when an abuser gets killed it's never "well did he beat his partner within an inch of her life"

I laughed out loud. I'm sorry. This picture is going to defy my attempt at alt-text. I know I overuse this word but...astonishing.
Normalize laughing derisively in men's faces when they deserve it.
