I visited the Obama Center two weeks ago. It brought on a storm of emotions, mostly positive but also sadness given the amount of corruption & conning at the federal level today. The Obama presidency was imperfect, but damn it felt good to have a competent person at the helm of a now sinking ship.

PRESIDENT, & start to gain back their credibility???"

Read this thread and there is no denial that the US is slipping into Nazism. Fucking inhumane behavior from Kansas. States rights, my ass.
Alejandra Caraballo@esqueer.net · 5mo agoKansas is sending letters to trans people telling them that their licenses will be revoked as of tomorrow and that they risk arrest for driving on a suspended license. This is pure cruelty. www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sen...
Former ICE agent: My first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a warrant.

I have no idea who won the superbowl and I don’t care. I do care however that Bad Bunny did what had to be done with the platform he was given. Beautiful job!

BREAKING: DHS said Geraldo Lunas Campos, 55, died in ICE custody, after "being in distress". But leaked audio from the coroner says it will be ruled a HOMICIDE by guards choking him. Another murder, another cover up. Don't let them do it quietly… Stand up. Speak up. Get involved. 😎✨
I ride hard for Banana Laffy Taffy. Luckily it is often an unwanted item in the few buckets that I have the privilege of riffing through post Halloween festivities.
🫧Mari🧿™️@chimchamri.bsky.social · 8mo agoFun fact, 🤓 banana flavoring is based on the bananas that were in circulation prior to the great banana wipe out that happened in the 50s by a fungus called the Panama disease.
This Veterans Day, please remember that the US military is the largest carbon emitter in the world by a large margin. The Pentagon pollutes more than many entire countries whilst veterans sleep on the street.

🌎🇺🇸🔥 ….. anyway how do we feel about the Lacroix strawberry and peach flavor? Love a little fizzy indulgence from time to time/ always.
The “don’t tread on me” crowd is awfully quiet right now. Too busy licking in the boot I guess cause it’s “their guy”? 🤷🏾♀️
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 11mo agoTim Walz: "I'll tell you what doesn't make people feel safe -- a tank next to Chipotle. It's stupid and it's for the cameras ... where are the 'don't tread on me' people?"
Was momentarily locked out of Bluesky for about a week but in keeping up with the energy of “shut up and dribble”, Jullian Michaels should shut the fuck up and drop and dumbbell on her foot. Fucking snowflakes.
