Congratulations to @joshshapiropa.bsky.social on your sweeping re-election! We look forward to working together for the hardworking families of Pennsylvania!
While this administration has another two years in office, our job now is to roll up our sleeves, make changes wherever we have the power to do so, prevent further damage, and lay the groundwork for the future.
two years of sucking up to and enabling a moral degenerate for some momentary gains that are going to be wiped out as if they never existed. hope losing your eternal soul was worth the tradeoff.
Sam Forstag takes the lead in Montana! When asked about transgender people and sports and healthcare bans, he said, "government has no business sticking their nose in our personal lives." And then says its a distraction while "they pick our pockets" WOW.
Let's go, Sam Forstag! That's how you stand up for trans people on the national stage. If congressional candidates in western Montana—one of the most competitive House races in the entire country—can stand up for trans folks in every aspect of our lives, democrats everywhere should take note.
first black woman governor, a latina governor, a native american woman senator, an openly gay senator…woke is back folks
bet PA republicans are gonna fucking wish they’d agreed to a compromise minimum wage increase before sorry guys labor is coming for you

Susan Collins shouldve hooped instead of suckin mega shit cause she tall as hell
Over the course of her career, #MostCorrupt2026 member Sen. Susan Collins has accepted a breathtaking $8.3 million in corporate PAC donations. She’s repeatedly abandoned Maine families and used her position of power to reward her friends on Wall Street. #MESEN
An appropriately Halloween bit to end Optimism October on: we just discovered a whole new species of spider on the Mauritian island of Ilot Vacoas, dubbed the Mauritian tidal trapdoor spider (Idioctis marevallum). Even now there are whole animal species yet undiscovered. www.bbc.com/news/article...
Spider found in Mauritius like discovering 'hidden treasure'
The new species of trapdoor spider is discovered by scientists from Durrell working in Mauritius.

Hey, I was just reminded that Sean O'Brien exists and I'm compelled to say: Fuck you, Sean. You're a plague on the labor movement.
Four days out. Every excuse Senate Republicans have offered this year for not moving on wages, leave, transit, and energy relief runs out on Tuesday. After that, it is just a record, and voters get to decide what they think of it.
Nearly half of all registered voters reported that corruption has become increasingly concerning during Trump’s second term compared with previous administrations.
Trump made $1.4 billion in crypto. Voters noticed.
Campaigns have poured nearly $500 million into corruption and ethics ads as voters grow tired of the president's self-dealing.

"I have great respect for my grandparents and parents for the extraordinary efforts they took to protect us children from the transgenerational trauma [of] the Genocide.. Herero men would never mention the genocide. They would only speak about the war of resistance." Germany's genocidal trial run.
Reckoning with the 20th century’s first genocide in Namibia
German abuses of the Herero and Nama were the 20th century’s first genocide, a harbinger of the Nazis' WWII Holocaust.

Pennsylvania’s divided legislature means we see very few good bills passed, so we couldn’t be more excited to see lawmakers from both parties come together to protect the health of firefighters and communities. @pennfuture.bsky.social #Pennsylvania #PFAS
