Taking my time to really listen and learn from the very valid concerns of the MAHA movement:
Memento (artemis) Morty 🌙@mementomorty.bsky.social · 7h agowe should hear MAHA out about this they might be onto something
When this is all over someone really needs to study people like this: people who pretty much had it made and threw it all away for Trump
@kyma-tv.bsky.social · 6h agoMike Lindell announced he is stepping down as CEO of MyPillow, the company he founded, to focus on his campaign to be the next governor of Minnesota.
No seriously THESE GUYS ARE ALL SO FUCKING WEIRD BRO You know the White House must smell crazy
Ben Collins@bencollins.bsky.social · yesterdayOh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.
Is he talking about 78 cents each? There is no way in hell he is talking about a dozen eggs for 78 cents because that doesn’t exist. Oh right because he’s making shit up
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayTom Emmer on Republicans trailing Dems by 8 points in the generic ballot: "Right now there are great things happening in our economy. Nobody wants to talk about 78 cent eggs, nobody wants to talk about milk that's under $2. No no. They want to focus on gas prices."
Folks: this is what the data centers are for

Nor do we want to be on Truth Social. I would hate to find a welcome home there. I would hate to be somebody who would be palatable to such a place. We don't go on Truth, because nobody needs bullies. They *do* try to come on Bluesky, because bullies need the rest of us.
Ruth Zakarin@ruthz.bsky.social · 2d agoThe burden is always on us lefties to welcome them, debate them, compromise with them, find middle ground, and generally make them comfortable. It’s totally one directional. No one is calling for Truth Social to make any room for us.
My thoughts on Bluesky not being welcoming to Republicans is Trump blocks disaster relief to states voting blue, & is also legally codifying anyone who opposes him as a terrorist deserving violence, & his kidnapping brute gangs terrorize the streets, & there's much more but I'm out of characters
Ciara | Ciaraíoch 🎨@ciaraioch.bsky.social · 2d ago"Bluesky is a political echo chamber" okay but I'm mostly here to chat with fun internet people and post art and make jokes, I cannot stress how much I don't care
here's a fun lil exercise for cis people: how many articles would a publication have to print calling for your extermination before you would expect people who care about you to stop giving them money? and how would you feel if their excuse for still supporting them is some fuckass crossword puzzle?
I don't think I've ever seen another platform that is so eager to tell its user base to go fuck itself

I never stop being amazed at these men who have no one in their lives to tell them “hey man, maybe don’t post that” or “hey man, you are assaulting your wife, you need to go get help” or “hey man, this is the kind of shit an abuser would say”
The Bulwark@thebulwark.com · 3d agoRep. Max Miller: "My former wife has claimed that during a custody exchange at my home that day, I assaulted her…If I had assaulted her, would she have offered to cook me dinner six days later?"
if we don't have cops then who else is gonna show up nine hours after you call them and tell you they can't do anything
Em, midly@lefttheprairie.bsky.social · 4d agoIt’s so funny when people are like “sure you’re an abolitionist now but wait until you’re the victim of a property crime.” Buddy, the most useful thing the police have ever done for property crime is put the form you need to submit to your insurance online.
just said this on another post but it bears repeating: the thing about continuing to give money to any jk rowling properties or the nyt is not that they’re shitty about trans people, which they are. it is that both of these entities MATERIALLY CONTRIBUTE to the legal challenges to trans rights
this sucks but the "Grok deleted my savings!" tweets we're going to see in six months will be amazing

I had a dream last night that one of my favorite punk bands put out a new album that was made with AI. I was so disappointed. They literally called it “The AI Album”. I don’t think I’ve ever been more disgusted in a dream 🤣
Every AI guy is like “it’s like having a personal assistant who takes care of all the things I don’t have time to do” and then when they list those things it’s just “talking to my wife and kids”

It rules that the Scouts will probably mess up a lot of young, vulnerable lives with this decision, and Trump will still shit on them about it anyway. Way to go, guys. But hey, maybe it will go differently for *you*

The Atlantic@theatlantic.com · 2w agoA lot of people in public health believe that MAHA is “nothing more than a subversive anti-vaccine, anti-science syndicate,” but the movement is an opportunity that the public-health sector “cannot afford to squander,” Craig Spencer argues:
