Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.
Discovered a cursed photo subgenre: "grift hands"
"I'm sorry if my comments hurt you" is not an apology.
@rikiwilchins.bsky.social [Moulton con't] New Moulton: "To the trans community feeling the weight and the pain of the Trump administration policies. I deeply recognize your trauma, and I'm sorry if my comments hurt you." Nice try, Seth. www.advocate.com/politics/ele...
dipped over into Threads and it's basically nothing but this
I unironically adore late-in-life, no-more-fucks-to-give Orson Wells. He might have been handsome & talented AF during the Citizen Kane era, but he was also an arrogant prick. Later in life, he was still an arrogant prick, but a far more likeable & interesting one.
TODAY: @milesklee.bsky.social celebrates a high point of cinema, that Orson Welles frozen peas commercial. Welles has "no cause to give even a microscopic fraction of a fuck about how the finished product will turn out. He insists on integrity anyway." flaminghydra.com/a-celebratio...
HIGHLY RECOMMEND doing this right now. Also for the foreseeable future, might want to avoid platforms like Threads which don't let users disable autoplay gifs/videos. I'm scrolling half-asleep & accidentally saw something I really, really didn't want to see 😞
Hey guys, Perez Hilton performed self-harm and may have attempted a suicide on TikTok and screenshots are flying around, so if you are sensitive, go put "Perez Hilton" in your mutes right now.
For the past five months the only refugees the USA has accepted are white South Africans fleeing equality & safety meanwhile they are disappearing or strapping ankle monitors on any Haitian they can get ahold of. It needs to be understood how thoroughly connected these two things are.
Five endangered secretarybird chicks have hatched at Chester Zoo, the British conservation charity said, marking the first time the species has bred at the zoo in its 95-year history. Jamie Cartwright-stock, a bird keeper at the zoo spoke to Reuters about the effort to breed the endangered birds.
At the cafe today, 5 older people (70s) were unanimously agreed that older dems like Schumer shod step aside, Dems in general need to get their shit together, Trump supporters are a cult, and McConnell is probably brain dead and it's being hidden for political reasons. So, that's where we're at
when father is doing his stupid work instead of paying attention to you
a trans woman told him that he should maybe not play NYT games, as they're openly transphobic. rather than accept and listen, he responded with two quippy jokes at her expense, and now she's been banned on bluesky.
Suddenly feeling better about having been blocked by Ken! bsky.app/profile/luna...
Well, it appears that, sometime in the last 17 hours, Gwen Pepperoni was suspended for the crime of pointing out Ken Jennings' transphobia.
I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.
Well, at least it was for a completely lawless and pointless cause.
U.S. has used 'virtually all' of its long-range precision missiles during Iran war: Reuters
For more of my thoughts on Linda McMahon, here's an op-ed from 2024 that more or less predicted things exactly as they've turned out:
Theatrics, hatred and Linda McMahon: how pro wrestling explains Donald Trump
The ex-WWE CEO and likely incoming education secretary doesn’t seem like a threat. That’s what makes her one
theguardian.com
I keep thinking about how bad this post is, specifically vis a vis Linda McMahon Linda, for all her wicked deeds, did not "do nothing" before this admin Years of work at WWE and in GOP politics make her the MOST qualified Trump official, actually Which is why her attack on education terrifies me
Guys will listen to male influencer bullshit about needing to have a six pack and manipulate everyone and meanwhile women will go “you know who is the sexiest fucking guy I’ve ever seen?” and post this
Bet you didn't know that the Little Morton Salt Girl is an immortal being who existed before there was life on Earth.
“Just because you let somebody creampie you doesn’t mean I have to give a shit about your political opinions” Sometimes I think maybe I’m exaggerating how much hatred men & society at large have for women, and then I’ll read something like this and realize wait no it’s actually SO MUCH WORSE
Earlier tonight, @michellegoldberg.bsky.social read *another* quote from this weirdo that reflected the same general sentiment. www.sacurrent.com/news/san-ant...
“If you’re a corporation and you’re trying to decide on the marginal value of buying an independent movie that you don’t have to buy, and potentially incurring the wrath of the Trump administration, it’s a pretty easy decision,” says McKenzie. variety.com/2026/film/ne...

Bluesky is a "liberal bubble" because fascist chuds can't get traction without algorithmic assistance and because people here trained themselves to block "debate me" trybois the instant they roll up
Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."
