I often abide in these sidhe, but I am originally from the tribe of Hell and I have come to invite you for in a short while we will be from the same country i also make maps she/her

Keeping seeing the take: "@emilyrcwilson.bsky.social is smart and all, but she doesn't know *film* and so she doesn't really *get it.*" My bros in Christ, opinions about films are ALWAYS informed by life experiences. There is no such thing as pure film criticism! Knowing "film" biases you, too!

Under-discussed Michigan politics story is that a co-founder of Uncommitted is about to become the Democratic nominee for a seat to the State Senate with the backing of Governor Whitmer

State Senate candidate Abbas Alawieh of Dearborn, cofounder of the Uncommitted movement and ex-chief of staff to Rep. Cori Bush, gave a passionate speech Sunday at the annual Arbaeen procession in Dearborn, declaring in Arabic: I’m American.

This man does not sound like he’s a reformed neo-Nazi; it sounds, at least to me, like a neo-Nazi that figured out what neo-Nazi language is acceptable in UK mainstream media (attack Muslims), that is, a continuation of his prior work attacking Muslims (and creating anti-Muslim hoaxes)

Hours after being contacted by Channel 4 News with the allegations, he posted a video on his platform, admitting to it and saying: “I regret my past and the mistakes that I have made. For me, I can’t move away from them because of the nature of the antisemitism that once ruled my life.

“I think that we have a huge problem with antisemitism in this country right now. I was absolutely disgusted to see the awful attack on that synagogue in Manchester. But also the way in which antisemitism seems to have been normalised in this country.

“It’s no longer a case of neo-Nazis being antisemitic, we’re seeing antisemitism within the left, within the far left. Also within the extreme Islamic communities in this country.”

My thoughts on Bluesky not being welcoming to Republicans is Trump blocks disaster relief to states voting blue, & is also legally codifying anyone who opposes him as a terrorist deserving violence, & his kidnapping brute gangs terrorize the streets, & there's much more but I'm out of characters

"Bluesky is a political echo chamber" okay but I'm mostly here to chat with fun internet people and post art and make jokes, I cannot stress how much I don't care

really loving all the protests against and support for trans women happening in and around the WNBA, a league that has never had a trans woman play in it. we’re just THAT interesting to talk about! for everyone! how fun!!!!

Personally I would love to see Bluesky expand. It shouldn’t just be the app for leftists who can’t stand Matt Yglesias! It should also be the app for liberals who can’t stand Matt Yglesias. And apolitical folks who can’t stand Yglesias. And, yes, even conservatives who can’t stand Matt Yglesias!

The people who demand gross, obtrusive genital monitoring of children in the name of protecting girls sports will immediately pivot to using the gross, obtrusive genital monitoring as an argument against letting girls play sports at all.

This is that ails us in every institution. There is no meritocracy. It's kleptocracy, gerontocracy, nepotism, and cronyism. There is a reason why every election is the "last of our lifetime," and it's "no time for introspection," and all the other platitudes that always land on "don't change".

This line really slaps: The missing chapter had a section about "the sway of an operative class that had become “generationally wealthy off politics” while steering Democratic strategy." www.nytimes.com/2026/08/03/u...

All this shit isn't designed to have an honest conversation, it's designed to shut down debate and discussion, and frankly I'm fucking tired of it. If you're scared of the goddamn subway, say that. If you're uncomfortable around unhoused people, say that.

It’s important to understand that when 1.2 million Americans are dying from a disease, any government action is excessive and tyrannical, but if a dozen trans women want to play soccer no government action can go far enough

the most performative news article in response to the most performative nothingburger of a tweet thread by someone who can't even be bothered to find a different puzzle game in support of trans people lol allyship is more than just not blacklisting trans people from your TV show!
