Whatever happens in two weeks the absolute single best thing that would benefit the Democratic Party in the long term is its complete expungement of its donors and constituents who are overtly racist but believe somehow it doesn’t count because it’s against Muslims
This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead
If you have any info or tips about the donations that Ed Sheeran, Robert Kraft, or others in the NFL are planning — or anything else related — please text me on Signal @ premthakker.35 Your anonymity will be protected
Big news: The family of Tierra Walker, who died after she couldn't get an abortion, is suing a slate of Texas actors in state court, including AG Ken Paxton. They say the state ban is unconstitutional. This is the first suit of its kind. 19thnews.org/2026/09/texa...
Tierra Walker died after she couldn’t get an abortion. Her family is suing Ken Paxton
The case, filed Tuesday, argues that Texas’ near-total abortion ban violates the state and U.S. Constitutions, which “prohibit state actors from killing their citizens.”

HAPPY NATIONAL AFRO DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
✨ Melty Hot Pie ✨@mick-ee.blacksky.app · 2mo agoIt’s national afro day!!!!! Can I see y’all’s fros?
This was monstrous. Killing children that they obviously didn’t see as children or fully human. And it’s happening again today w/trans kids (& still happening w/Black kids). This is why we must tell candidates to stand for all of us or they don’t have our votes. All of the children are ours.
Ida B Wells' Winchester Rifle@dytsras.bsky.social · 2mo agoFour little girls died that day in Birmingham, but actually 6 children were killed. After the 16th Street Baptist church was bombed on this day in 1963, the city of Birmingham naturally faced unrest. 16yr old Johnny Robinson was shot by police, & 13yr old Virgil Ware killed by a white teenager
Reads like a Citizens' Council newsletter bragging about how they got a black school principal fired.
Devin Burghart@dburghart.bsky.social · 2mo agoToday, the Heritage Foundation, the org behind Project2025, took credit for driving Lonnie Bunch out the Smithsonian Institution. Bunch was the first African American and first historian to serve as head of the Smithsonian. But sure, tell me again how it’s not about racism.
a Black family dancing to korn with their astronaut relative who just got back from the moon is, quite frankly, the best thing the internet has ever produced
A disturbing resurgence is taking place in the South. At least 7 black people have been found hanged this year, echoing the thousands of racial terror lynchings that took place in the South from the post-Civil War Reconstruction Era through the end of World War II.
Strange Fruit, Still. Still.
There is a long, dark history of lynching of Black Americans in this country, primarily in the former Confederate states

Just want to remind folks that this keeps happening. Burials of assumed-important ancients discovered to be women via genetic testing, after decades of them simply being assumed to be male. The patriarchy is incompatible with reality.
Jens Notroff@jensnotroff.com · 3mo agoThe #BronzeAge #UptonLovellShaman's burial in Wiltshire has long been considered an important religious figure & metalworker. It's been barely questioned someone of such status must be male. But now #aDNA analysis revealed that the body is in fact: a woman. 🏺 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
This particular criminalization of parental poverty, used to disproportionately pathologize Black women and steal their children, is called Jane Crow. And it's proliferating because of deliberately cruel, punitive administrative policies like what's happening to SNAP and Medicaid.
Anxious Rage@anxiousrage.blacksky.app · 4mo agoWhen families can’t eat, on top of everything else, the risk increases of the state stepping in to remove their children because of “neglect”
Two weeks ago today, after Nasdaq willingly rigged the rules, somewhere btw $7-10 bil of passive money was forced to buy SpaceX at $160.42 Today, 10 trading days later, it closed at $119.85 It’s an unprecedented forced loss (at least $2b) for passive investors and our financial media is 🦗
Beshear should announce the replacement election for KY Senate date until McConnell objects. In. Person.
It’s not lost on me that the World Cup events have shown up the Republican Party for the farce it is. The US, a multicultural nation celebrating the joys of humanity and competition is a direct repudiation of everything the Republican Party stands for. Everything.
🔥 Charlamagne on Josh Hokit attacking Michelle: “All you do when you bring the Obamas up is remind people what is currently missing from the White House. The Obamas set a standard for decency & class & poise & intelligence... Now that bar is in hell.”
‼️THE SOUTH WILL NOT BE SILENCED‼️ Today’s march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge is a reminder that voting rights were paid for in blood. And now those same rights are under attack again. Next: Montgomery #AllRoadsLeadToTheSouth
Check all the bank accounts of all the VA Supreme Court Justices.
For a party that has solely controlled our government for 15 months, they sure blame Dem for a lot. Methinks perhaps they aren’t the true party of personal responsibility. /s
Why is it every time the Bozo is in office, I need to learn about a new damned virus that can kill me.
I’m torn. Does Clown Roberts sound better than Klan Roberts? #FthisCourt
Congress reauthorizes a law that has been on the books for 40 years in a virtual unanimous vote and SCOTUS essentially invalidates it...but they're not making policy. Who's he kidding...
Where does the Constitution say "major questions" gives the Supreme Court more power as determined by the Court? Why didn't anyone notice it for 224 years? Where does the Constitution say "official acts" make a president immune to legal consequence for crime. Why didn't anyone notice for 235 years?
Lawrence Hurley@lawrencehurley.bsky.social · 6mo ago“One of the things we have to do is issue decisions that are unpopular,” Roberts said. Those rulings, he added, are “based on our best effort to figure out what the Constitution means and how it applies.”
Absolutely!! When’s her next press conference? I don’t want to miss that one! @senlouiselucas.bluesky.bot
Laura Bassett@lebassett.bsky.social · 6mo ago100% retaliation for this tweet that went viral
For all discussions around DHS, anti-vax idiocy- the response should be: “Stupid doesn’t work here. Lives are at risk.” That’s it. Any BS claims of horse meds or any vax BS- they’ll find their marks but not in the professional science / healthcare space. “Nope, stupid doesn’t work here.”
This is a serious query. Has the conservative movement ever brought about anything that helped society? (No, killing people to reduce abortions is not a “benefit”) Even if it was 100 years ago.. I think they whiffed the entire 20th century…
Oh don’t mind me, I’m just sharpening my pitchfork - for no reason. Nope, no reason at all.
You know what’s really exploding right now? The US Debt. Curious when the damned liberal media is gonna start mentioning this when a republican is in office.
If Germany has Beethoven, Austria has Mozart, and Russia has Tchaikovsky, The United States has Edward Kennedy Ellington. You probably recognize him by his more famous name. Duke Ellington, America's greatest composer, was born in the nation's capital 127 years ago today
