"LET THE FREE MARKET DECIDE!" said the TN Republicans before wrecking cannabis stores to save their alcohol industry pals from the free market that chose weed instead of booze I can't wait to get rid of these bozos in the mid-term.

The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social · 4w ago

🧵 on the “absolute nonsense” from Tennessee Republicans to kill a thriving cannabis/hemp industry in Tennessee (on behalf of Big Alcohol) (The law from Lamberth & Briggs kicked in July 1st…The “R” stands for “Reverse”😕)

Oh no, they got Anus, my favorite guy from the O'Dussy :(

To the libs who are more fixated on criticizing Platner supporters, Bernie Sanders, and progressives instead of helping Maine win, step aside and let the lefties who actually care help us regroup and move on. THIS is what we needed, not the petty childishness many of you libs have displayed today.

Prem Thakker ツ@premthakker.bsky.social · last mo.

Nirav Shah — one of the prospective candidates to replace Graham Platner — says he will not vote to send aid to Israel, and affirms that Israel is committing genocide. Shah just took second in the Maine democratic primary for Governor and served as director of the Maine CDC.

This had to happen, but I wish we never reached this point. Not when libs using Platner as an excuse to attack Bernie AGAIN. Not when it's causing disarray among leftists. Especially not against a GOP who will take any malcontent to win and destroy democracy. This sucks on every level imaginable.

Not remotely regretful about being against Graham Platner from the start. The sell of a multiple returning tour of duty war criminal who returned again to be a merc and guarded notorious torture prisons of American imperialism was going to have other skeletons

The tech industry can make all consoles more expensive as resources are pooled into AI while firing thousands of workers who don't have proper protections and the same losers will keep pretending it's because of women or minorities in games that everything sucks now

I won't believe it until I have proof that rigor tortoise has set in. 💀🐢

Hurry up and die already, Mitch. Hopefully from polio.

“There is nothing fiscally responsible about balancing the budget on the backs of working people.” ZOHRAN says NYC’s budget shrinks the deficit by taxing the rich, not the working class. What a concept! (cc: @GovBillLee — Tennessee has one of most regressive tax structures😕)

Great moments in U.S. History.

Spider-Man 3 was a financial success, despite the brutal critical reception, but that honestly serves the point of this entire thread. Cis white men can fail upward in ways that their bipoc & female counterparts never will; to everyone's detriment.

Aranock, 4 of Ravens@aranock.bsky.social · last mo.

It is deeply telling that cis white men led films can flop 50 thousand times but if any marginalized led project fails it means we just shouldnt have us in films any more. Where were the 10000 thinkpieces for Morbius a film that flopped not just once but twice, or amazing spiderman 2, or spiderman 3

Once again, the Christian right never had a problem with Sharia Law. They just wanted to be the ones to do the religious indoctrination through their white Jesus instead of the brown "radical Islamic Muslim terrorists".

Public schools should be places where all students feel welcome, not where children are pressured into religious instruction.

this whole online ID verification push stuff is turning me into a weird crank at rapid speed because I've never seen such an unpopular policy forced through with such speed in so many countries simultaneously with basically zero real consent from any population, just pure elite collusion

ah good, the Republican Project 2025 was a playbook for rolling out Christofascism and the Democrats have responded with Project 2029, a plan for permanent electoral irrelevance

alpha @omarsbigsister.bsky.social · last mo.

Dems' "Project 2029" first major policy proposal: an online child safety plan — narrowing Sec. 230, banning social media for kids under 16, promoting phone-free childhoods and more. Already backed by Cory Booker, Mikie Sherrill, Randi Weingarten + Jonathan Haidt. LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

i doubt anyone in his community would create something beautiful that pays tribute to his memory when it finally happens compared to Chairle's

I'll believe him when he expires. Otherwise...

‘I’m Done, I’m Not in That F*cking Political Party’: James Carville Freaks Out After Progressives Win Big in Democratic Primaries

You know very well that 85% of Jews don't support AIPAC, not even close. You also know that AIPAC doesn't even claim to be a Jewish group. You also know that there are more "Christian Zionists" in the US, than there are Jews, of any beliefs. You are making US Jews less safe.

Asking children aged 9 what they think they'll be like when they're 40.

Happy pride month everyone

She TRIED to warn us!! She TRIED!

At $2, you can enjoy this quirky Zelda-lite game with a cool twist: you die and respawn after every literal minute of play. The concept works in many clever ways without over staying its welcome (3-4 hours), and the soundtrack is pretty catchy, too. If that sounds interesting, give it a try!

Logging into social media these days means potentially learning something unbelievably horrible that you never would've learned anyone else, absorb the existential horror of contemporary life, and then see something else that's equally as horrible. Often in the same day. I'm so tired of all this.

One school I worked at raised money for new copy machines by letting teachers pay to hit the old ones with hammers

"Peace through strength" Trump is too tacky to do anything but copy/paste "1984," and yet, 70 mil Americans were too stupid and bigoted to make the connection, so we're stuck with this sociopathic idiocy every day. When this era ends, NEVER, ever let the GOP off the hook for what they did.
