BREAKING NEWS The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided to award the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize to Navanethem “Navi” Pillay for her efforts to promote peace and international law.

Dear tv and radio producers. Thankyou for the invitation. But, no, I do not want to appear on your show to defend the idea that I am English, after 50 years of living and working here, because the increasingly feral right want to turn this into a "debate" and you cannot see how you're being played

Some ~personal~ news: After five years, I have been laid off from @the-independent.com. I am grateful for the time I have had there. With that in mind, I am absolutely looking for new work opportunities, especially ahead if the midterms. My email is EMGarcia2009@gmail.com. My signal is emgarcia.85

He is explicitly calling for pogroms. (I ask again: at what point will our major news organizations finally acknowledge that he is either mentally ill or a vile racist or both?)

Trump tries to start a race war: "The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants ... The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back!"

Here’s what I do know. If someone white was doing half the stuff Blacksky has done in the last year, they’d be lauded as one of the most forward thinking and innovative people on the planet. But it just shows how progress is always happening, especially in places where folks don’t want to look

Why indeed. Pretty awesome story here by @peterhartlaub.bsky.social early aviator Katherine Stinson, who has a new exhibition about her up via @sfomuseum.bsky.social I'll need to check out soon. Gift link, and flagging @quartzcity.bsky.social for a start. (And @mostlymartha.bsky.social too!)

Before Amelia Earhart, this female aviator thrilled S.F. Why is she forgotten?

“Flying Schoolgirl” Katherine Stinson broke gender barriers and thrilled San Francisco crowds long before Amelia Earhart. Then history lost her name.

Just took lovely Maeve out for an afternoon field trip. She’s a big sweetie looking for a home in the DC area where she can be the lone doggo. Go pay her a visit! bvspca.org/adopt/maeve-2

Yeah it doesn’t work like that

My brother Wissam desperately needs treatment. He suffers from severe malnutrition, and we urgently need $200 for the food and medicine he needs. Seeing him struggle breaks our hearts. Any support or share could help us reach him. 🙏💔 chuffed.org/project/majdi

Full blown fascism. We have the Fourth and Fifth Amendments for a reason: to stop government agents like ICE from becoming the president’s secret police. Where's the outrage from “constitutional conservatives”?

ProPublica@propublica.org · 4d ago

NEW: The Trump administration keeps denying and downplaying that immigration agents have been detaining Americans. It’s wrong. We’ve found more than 500 U.S. citizens have been held against their will, including handcuffed or held at gunpoint.

The fact that the tree is as old as the United States should not be lost on anyone. What a metaphor.

Raider@iwillnotbesilenced.bsky.social · 3d ago

The Trump administration’s actions resulted in the destruction of the largest ancient Cottonwood tree on Indigenous territory in Arizona. This tree, known as the “Grandmother Tree,” was 250 years old.

Good morning. I short rent that was due 10/1, and I just had an unexpected medical emergency which will cost 289.00 out of pocket. EVERY SALE HELPS keep us housed and alive. Potawatomi made. Support Indigenous artists/businesses-these are survival funds. www.melancholynow.com

Right wing political ads war of the “dangers” of “Shariah Law" and how it'll make us the United States of Islamerica. (Came up with that on my own, you’re welcome). This is all nonsense.

Just pulled these. They need to be cleaned up and whoever gets them will get to pick the color of the pips. All proceeds go to saving for a ct scan and surviving while I fight my bank. I'm happy to sell them on a sliding scale just reach out. 🖤🖤

I'm horrifically disappointed to see people hopping into a harry potter art trend after all the heinous garbage jk rowling has done to multiple communities Not so friendly reminder that she's using this as free advertising and you ARE supporting her indirectly for this.

Please don't forget about us trans people. Facing the worst attack on our rights in this country due to Labour's current transphobia. Don't forget my community. That's all I ask. Please.

Since Bluesky is the official app of sports, I thought I'd share this General Sports starter pack with the new folks bsky.app/starter-pack...

Every cis person needs to read and understand this.These decisions aren’t taken lightly. Our Labour government is effectively making political refugees of trans ppl and their families who flee and seek safety overseas. It’s shameful. They can stick their dignity and respect where the sun don’t shine

Just seeing if anyone can help. Hoping to pick up a few groceries and make sure everything is paid up but we are having an extremely hard time this pay. 😥

the story about the ULEZ bomber, a white bloke in his 60s, still isn’t on the front page of the BBC News when it feels like quite a big story about online radicalisation & violence

I share Braverman's Indian-Mauritian background. And if a family member of mine ever came out with this horseshit I would tell them, "yes, you are indeed being racist against yourself, and against us. Have some self respect".

Suella Braverman suggests on #BBCQT that you can't be English unless you are white, and have a lineage or heritage going back some generations

Things Gavin Newsom has vetoed this week: -A ban on secretly recording people with smart glasses -A ban on ICE agents working for the state government -A ban on websites selling your data -A bill giving native tribes more say over water rights -A bill protecting transgender healthcare providers

She could have been wandering around the frat house buck naked as far as I am concerned; She should not be subjected to harassment, assault, rape.
