Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.
I am already tired of everyone at A.I. companies releasing statements saying I WISH SOMEONE WOULD STOP ME

Sick to my very soul of having to think about Donald Trump every goddamn day. 
Has anyone else read the Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion by Beth Brower? I just finished Volume 6 and fam, I am ADDICTED and dying to speculate with someone about the outcome of this series. It is an amazing, amazing series. Can’t recommend highly enough
Now, ah may be a simple, I say simple country screenwriter, but ah’d suggest the pedophile-adjacent GOP assassins trying to actually murder Democratic candidates, just may be as newsworthy as an embarrasing podcaster, But that may just be me.

Nope. I live in Berkeley. Canadian geese have been flying south in the past week, and the trees are already turning. Here’s a pic of the tree across the street, which was a full lush green a week or so ago.
Is there an opposite of seasonal affective disorder? Because I think I have it. I endure spring, go spiritually and emotionally dead during summer, then spring to life during autumn. This past week it’s like I’ve awakened from the dead.
this is the same exact dynamic that drives me nuts about everyone trump nominates for anything just blanket vote against them all, if they’re being nominated it doesn’t matter what their background is or what they say in a confirmation hearing they are a villain and disqualified by definition

I’m an American curious about the best ways to support Canada during this trade war. Is it buying Canadian goods if financially feasible once tariffs are added to cost? If so, can we have a specific list? Is it boycotting or finding substitutes for other goods? Help me out here please
Man, every other ad on NFL network right now in California is anti-Prop 40, the wealth tax. Billionaires must be scared shitless it’s going to pass
There are going to be Democrats who say we shouldn’t rip it all out — it’s already built, we have other priorities — but removing the visible signs of Trumpism is absolutely necessary.
Andy Craig@andycraig.bsky.social · last mo.The vandalism and desecration of the White House isn't just vanity and it's not trivial. It's caesarism, as in literally what Julius Caesar did to the symbolic architecture of civic republicanism. Our national iconography matters and allowing the disfiguring of it to persist is a substantive harm.

Every person this administration wrongly deported should be granted asylum and a path to citizenship. Won’t even begin to right wrongs like this. But it’s a place to start.
Gillian Brockell@gillianbrockell.com · 2mo agoPeople who are suddenly deported to countries they haven’t been to for years — or, in some cases, have NEVER been to — are incredibly vulnerable. We are going to be reading stories like this for years. God have mercy on their three little girls.
