My posting will probably be limited for the next few days because I work in information security, so I know exactly why nobody should ever upload their government ID or biometric face scans to access a social media site.
Axes, we all need axes. or maybe guillotines.

Councilor Mitch Green@councilorgreen.bsky.social · 3d agoThe people have spoken: they want me to go even harder on housing for every. single. Portlander. We don't have time to waste. Help us shape the future of tenant protections this week. I hope you'll join me and @counciloravalos.bsky.social for our inaugural D4 Rental Ripoff Townhall this Tuesday.
Pre-election liberals were telling trans people to shut up about transphobic Democrats. Post-election liberals are telling trans people to shut up about transphobic Democrats Chat I'm starting to think they just don't want to hear from trans people about transphobia.
Shit. Ive been honeypotted by the vaguely and 100% seemingly flirtatious yet perfectly professionally friendly hot barista.
Amanda Wong@amandawtwong.bsky.social · 18h agoOh, whomst among us haven't been honeypotted by a hot spy
AOC says the problem is no one will run against Jeffries or Schumer. The political hit to opposing them is too high. Even progressives don’t want to challenge the Dem power structure There should not be backroom deals to pick Dem leadership. We deserve a transparent process.
Jesus Christ. This truly is elder abuse on the hands of the GOP.
🦋 kris🌻⋆⋆⋆@eviebauer727.bsky.social · 2d agoHere’s Mitch McConnell answering a few questions from a reporter. Did I say “answer” I meant to say unable to speak or communicate with on any level. Where’s this man’s wife or his family? Doesn’t he have any friends in the Senate? Clearly, this man belongs in an assisted living facility.

When @oversightdemocrats.bsky.social hold hearings, please do NOT call it the Dept of War. It is legally the Department of Defense and you should remind them at every opportunity that only Congress can change. Since you didn’t, there’s no such thing as DoW.
It's legally DoD, and what to call it is up to the people's elected representatives in Congress. "Department of War" sometimes gets "come on, it's just a little thing, let it go." But it matters. Symbolically, and because accepting some usurpation of Congress's legal authority is a slippery slope.

I dont know when this was recorded. But this dudes line of questioning, and their responses, is exactly the kind of thing that led to the results of november 3rd. He even declares it with his parting comment. youtube.com/shorts/HqMkt...

Good lord. I did not know this. We need to dump this chump. @jeff-merkley.bsky.social @wyden.senate.gov I am a constituent in portland. Ive already called your offices. But here I am again, pointing out that this man cannot continue to be tla leader in the democratic party.
Revolving Door Project@revolvingdoordc.bsky.social · 2d agoAs Chuck Schumer fights to remain leader of the Senate Democrats, his daughter remains a top lobbyist for OpenAI.
This is a neutral, objective headline. The American cowardliness in naming things by their names draws us away not toward the simple truths around us.

Don’t forget the trans folk, please. There’s a lot of good news but a lot of us let them down bad.

Ursula K. Le Guin Bot@leguinbot.bsky.social · 3d agoLove doesn't just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new.
It starts good. But by the end, its really just a lesson on counting, with a side of crowdfunding in order to give a piece of scum the money he wants more of. Predatory capitalism hidden behind a feel good story of community aid. Grump, never gets got. He just gets his.
Walter IV@walteriv.bsky.social · 3d agoIn 1988, while Koch was in office, Sesame Street introduced Ronald Grump, a greedy real estate developer character who famously tried to tear down Oscar the Grouch's home to build a stacked, multi-story "can-dominium" called Grump Tower m.youtube.com/watch?featur...
we genuinely are going to have to tear the entirety of US government IT infrastructure down to the studs and rebuild after Trump

Everyone : we just voted out all these republicans because were tired of their shit and we want to fight!! Dems: i just hired these repbulicans because the people are tired of the fighting.
Honestly it's time to dismantle the entirety of DHS and revert the agencies back to the pre-9/11 status quo Combining all the disparate secret police forces into one department turned out to be Very Bad Policy™ that led to the exact thing its original critics said it would
Kevin M. Kruse@kevinmkruse.bsky.social · 4d agoNo, it’s time to dismantle ICE entirely and investigate the crimes committed by its armed goons and then turn that info over to state and local prosecutors
yah, I think being excited, and elated to see what happened tuesday is and can be separate from the acknowledgement that there are A LOT of battles yet to be fought. Many of them with the very people we just elected.
Thembo@thembo.bsky.social · 4d agoEvery lefty I saw on here was, often in their own words, "libbing out" Tuesday & were extremely joyful. The "return to brunch" thing has nothing to do with that, but rather the idea that many libs just want to cheer the scoreboard and them ignore things the moment Ds or adequately polite Rs are in.
Karen Attiah has been going off about the superiority of Texas over all other states all day and it's just fucking asinine. This is exactly the dumb bullshit drama dialog we don't fucking need to be doing right now.
God the shit takes have really alreeady started in full force haven't they?? Way to ruin the vibes libs. way to ruin the vibes.
no, rip it root and branch from American society and build museums to remind us of the shame. lead or step aside
House Judiciary Dems@democrats-judiciary.house.gov · 5d agoIt’s time for ICE to take the masks off, turn the body cameras on, and start answering to the American people who pay for their bloated budget.
we can never forget that they shot a mom and a nurse in the middle of the street and told us they deserved it
