Liberal, woke, SoCal native. Raised Catholic, now atheist, cuz nothing kills religion faster than study of religion. I have one simple goal: to outlive fascism in my country.
Street corn! I'm obsessed with the corn at Brick & Flour in Glendale. I think it's close. I just can't get the queso fresco to stick to the mayo. It's the "crumbling cheese" but... I'm forced to eat standing at the counter, piling the cheese back on as it falls. And I'm okay with that. Yum!!!!!
My rental car has a weird key. That also doubles as a defensive weapon. Thank you KIA!
Competence and knowledge can still be celebrated.
Rep. Dr. Jasmine Clark@jasmineclarkforga.bsky.social · 4w agoFive facts that you should know about the current Cyclospora outbreak.
The knowledge of how many innocents’ deaths he is directly responsible for is clearly tormenting Musk psychologically, and I think he should be confronted with it roothlessly at every opportunity until he has a psychological break like the guy in The Tell-Tale Heart.
Sharon 🪳🌹@sharonk.bsky.social · last mo.Elon now claims he was saving lives by ending USAID
I think I've found some of Europe's cooler air. It's been hanging around Southern California the last week or so. July 1st and we've still got "June Gloom." Not complaining, mind you! Not in a hurry to send it home. Just... making it feel welcome.
If only the Tsar knew what his wicked advisors are up to, part 879.
Shipwreck@shipwreck75.bsky.social · 2mo agoOne congressional Republican tells me: “Conservatives on the Hill are stunned that Vance would erase all of Trump’s military victories in such a terrible deal. Trump effectively won the war and at the 11th hour Vance is negotiating his way to a loss.”-NewsNation
United by their love of country (and hatred of the Trump crime facility trying to steal their birthright)
Luca Migo@victinibcn.bsky.social · 2mo agoDay 12 Tirana Albania: the streets as packed with protesters, it’s a multi-generational event that transcends all the Albanian society as a whole. Hands off Albania! 🇦🇱
Those damned invaders are finally gone! Max's home is once again his castle. (And I have some atoning to do. It will, I suspect, involve treats.)
Max is VERY engaged in "The Mandalorian." We're getting caught up for the movie. (I haven't told him he won't be allowed to go. sshhhh!)
"Yeah... sure. Caturday. Whatever! Could ya get the f'in light out my f'in face? A guy needs to sleep in!"
I could solve this whole California drought thing. Just pay me to paint my courtyard and the rains will come! I've tried several times. We had zero rain all March. Yesterday was beautiful and sunny, forecast some clouds but no rain. Still, I only painted a small patch. A test. Fate said "Hah!"
This dude has been watching me all morning. High and mighty little fucker!
Not to brag but this was my sign at the first #NoKings march
Francis Wilkinson @franciswilkinson.bsky.social · 4mo agoHis removal from office must be a constant demand of Dems in Congress and No Kings in the streets. One consequence of that relentless demand will be perpetual relitigation of his spectacular clusterfuck of failure in all its pathological dimensions.
Can we officially re-name the Republican party "The Do-Nothing Party" or is that already taken... like... forever?
Who do you think these folks will be voting for in the primary? Sincerely wondering!

I'll be at a No Kings protest rally in Riverside, CA this coming Saturday. I'll be meeting my niece and her daughter (if she can get off work.) I know it seems pointless sometimes, but it's something I want to be part of. Which protest are you going to and who are you bringing/meeting?
234 days...... Are you all ready? Democrats are trouncing Republicans in state elections since Trump took office - POLITICO share.google/LuahtzVo1UYK...
Russia is giving intelligence to Iran, to help it target Americans in the Middle East. And President Donald J. Trump is rewarding Russia by easing restrictions on the sale of its oil. Is this not "giving aid and comfort to the enemy"? IS THIS NOT THE VERY DEFINITION OF TREASON?
Everywhere I go today on this Day of the Great Leap Forward I expect to hear "Congratulations!' and "You did it!" and "Wow! You're not an hour late!" Because, yes, last night before I went to bed I set all the clocks ahead approximately one hour. I expect big props for that.
THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!
Matt Zoller Seitz@mattzollerseitz.bsky.social · 5mo agoGreetings, new friends! You may know me as an author, a prolific Bluesky poster and 4th place finisher on So You Call That Dancing? But you might not know that my partner Judith (@mzpress) and I have an online arts bookstore that's growing every day. Full inventory here: mzs.press/EVERYTHING-W...
