I like to sew clothing and run my mouth. Blue rural’ish dot. Jersey Girl. Horses. Cats. Mom life. Very slow distance runner. Middle-aged feminist rage. Enthusiastically giving fewer f-s with every passing day. I wish I’d gone to fashion school.

Brainmist@brainmist.bsky.social · 9h agoPost something random or risk a sub-par September* *wait, to clarify, do we mean subpar as in not wildly fun but OK, or subpar as in not up to the standard because honestly the standard for a decade now has been crap and I would like to not make that par again.
1) Dr. Raven is a brilliant follow. 2) OhMyGosh, someone hire her! How has she not been scooped up already?! Looking at you Liberty Science Center, Museum of Natural History NYC, Franklin Institute, Baltimore Aquarium.
Dr. Raven the Science Maven@ravenscimaven.bsky.social · 8h agoI am still on the job hunt. It has been a year. I'm a master science storyteller, recognized on Fortune 40 Under 40 and Forbes 30 Under 30 for my ability to make science desirable, and engaging to all. 1/
The last Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood was 25 years ago today and it really shows.
To quote Chrissy Teigen, the patron saint of foul mouthed women, this is “pussy ass bitch” behavior. Trump belongs in a memory care facility. Google deserves to wither away into obscurity.

AMEN! Unity, people. keep it together.
Angry@angrystaffer.bsky.social · 3d agoPeople are falling for the DSA vs Establishment trap again. Didn’t we learn our lesson in 2016 and 2024? It’s the establishment’s job to build a coalition that can win EVERYWHERE. In some places, that means ultra-progressive. In others, it means establishment. The tent is big enough for all of us.
There’s an art show that’s benefiting one of my family’s favorite local charities and I think I’m going to submit something! Eek! What do I paint?
Excellent thread on fascism, how it’s evolved over time, and why it won’t just go away alreday.
"Online Rent-a-Sage" Bret Devereaux@bretdevereaux.bsky.social · last wk.I want to expand on this in a short thread. Fascism sucks. It is also not going away: it is an effectively permanent part of modern representative politics because it is an effectively permanent part of human nature. We have to be prepared to push back against it, basically forever.

Phil Lewis@phillewis.bsky.social · 4d agoA truck carrying an estimated 40,000 pounds of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer was stolen in Montclair in what may be the biggest beer heist ever
Such an incredibly perceptive observation. ❤️ This explains so much of the bizarre manosphere BS.
malort d'arthur🏳️⚧️@kiraculous.net · 4d agothe thing that a lot of people miss is that they are lifting aesthetics from gay subcultures and demanding that women find the things they are doing that were designed for men to attract other men as attractive. the entire gymbro subculture is a perfect example of this.
📌 Saving this term for the next time I have to convey the idea that time has its own price tag and can be objectively more valuable than [fill in alternate expense here].
ACARS Drama@acarsdrama.bsky.social · 4d agoExplaincars Drama: CI = Cost Index, which is used to measure the cost of fuel versus the cost of time. If the crew flies at a higher cost index, they fly faster & arrive sooner, which costs more fuel wise, but saves time. Time has a cost too, in missed connections, delays, crew pay etc.
I had the most awful dream last night. You know, one of those dreams that sticks with you well after your head has left the pillow.
Really unfortunate that in 2026 it’s socially acceptable to speak about other people’s weight in a disparaging way. I thought we left that shit back in the early 2000s but I guess everything old is new again.
(And if you're worried about keeping elections on track in YOUR community, there's actually a LOT you can do!) (Many, many links to volunteer, donate, and "stay on top of actual news & not scaremongering" in the thread below!) bsky.app/profile/sara...
Sarah Taber@sarahtaber.bsky.social · last wk.We kept our votes because we WORKED. And there's a lot of preemptive work we can do to to keep votes from being stolen in the first place! You can: Sign up as a poll worker at your local polling place! www.powerthepolls.org This is the #1 thing to do to protect elections. And it's paid work!
Related: We have a little Situation brewing at our county board of elections. We're a swing county in a swing state, so shenanigans are afoot! I may be posting a legal defense fund link for one of our local board members in the next few days. Stay tuned!
A civilian engineer aboard a Navy transport ship was raped and the judge dismissed her case saying that being raped was within her duties and must be treated as a worker's comp claim. Can we be done with this shit? I need us to be done.
Possibly the only intelligent thing he’s ever done.

If you are running for office you’d better be the hardest working person on your team. And if you’re not the hardest working person on your team maybe you ought to ask yourself if you really want this job.
I legit do not have the energy to read up on the mail in voting SCOTUS decision tonight. Tomorrow.
4 miles! Glad I waited until I was ready. Wore a compression sleeve on my knee and everything felt good all the way through to the end.
Enes Canter saying he's here to defend womens sports is a fascinating change from when he was in the NBA and couldn't defend anything
