Political science → real-world chaos. I end up in rooms I wasn’t invited to because I ask the wrong questions at the right time. Location flexible by necessity. #policywonk #movementspaces #localgov #systemschange
No, impossible to find a reason. But in terms of the "how to" part of your post: -Believe you never have enough stuff -Believe minorities/gays will take your stuff -Speak Bible, but act Devil -Revere women...but only while they cook
"How"@myoneandonlykat.bsky.social · 2mo agoHow to become a Republican. It’s been 10 years and I can’t find a reason.
The EU migration overhaul is getting buried under bigger headlines, but the policy shift is massive. Europe is locking down harder than the public narrative suggests. This feels ominous to me, a person who read history.
Energy analysts are flagging that refinery outages in Asia are going to hit Europe harder than expected. The timing couldn’t be worse with the heatwave. I remember there was a good deal of death in Paris not many years ago.

Lebanon getting hit again while negotiations are happening is rather a big giveaway about how fragile this “calm” is.
Donald Trump having law enforcement arrest people as “vandals” who damaged the refracting pool? Donald Trump is a shameless pathological liar who never takes responsibility for his obvious failures.
While Israel limits food going into Gaza, they have also banned fishing since 2023. If a Palestinian takes to a fishing boat off the coast of Gaza, they face the immediate risk of an Israeli military strike.
Fishing in Gaza Comes With a De Facto Death Sentence
Every week, we see another video from the water off Gaza showing attacks against fishing vessels. These boats pose no risk to Israel, the strikes are not a defensive measure of any kind, the reality i...

A federal judge finally told a telecom company it can’t throttle emergency‑service bandwidth. Is it pitiful or is it pathetic that this required litigation instead of basic decency?
Such a great reminder.....deep‑sea mapping project keeps turning up new geological features. So while we speculate about Mars, half our own planet is uncharted. Plus, destroying it.
Maybe I am the last one to see this but wow!!!
I’m introducing w/ Sen Markey the Asal Sayas National Strategy on Young Adult Cancers Act, named in memory of Asal, my incredible former staffer who we recently lost after a valiant battle with cancer. It builds on Asal's work to strengthen research, diagnoses, & treatments for young adult cancers.
Iran is still refusing IAEA access to the damaged sites. Inspectors say they’ve been waiting for days without movement. Tempted to think negatively about Iran. Then suddenly remembered: this is brought to us by Trump-Israel.

Please more of this: People who disagree, articulate position, ask about your position, demonstrate curiosity.
Black women still with worst mental health challenges and bad outcomes. But we knew this. But they still act surprised. But it could be fixed. But they don't want to. #BlackStandardCollective #ReproJustice #HealthEquity
"Every parent wants the best for their kids, as a parent, for my two kids, all you ever want if for the to be safe" A lot of Parents in Gaza and Lebanon could say that too. But you continue to be complicit in their annihilation "as a parent" Monster
Okay, so the ballroom is just a cover for the inevitable bunker below it and he was up on the roof of the White House looking at where they are going to place the artillery to thwart the upcoming military coup that will rise up when he cancels the mid-terms. Are we all agreed? Great. Thanks.
Because some uninformed or non-critical thinking voters voted for the unqualified guy who's also evolving in reverse. Oh, and elon helped him steal it. Guess Russia was too busy trying to 'steal' Ukraine to help with this one.
Vander Toledano@vandertoledano.bsky.social · 2mo agoWhy are we evolving in reverse?
Can’t help but notice all the people who said Obama would desecrate the White House with Escalades and rap music on the South Lawn are absolutely loving this UFC fight on the South Lawn. Probably just a coincidence.
DONALD TRUMP IS THE MOST CORRUPT PRESIDENT IN AMERICAN HISTORY!
Me: Well, he looks like a rapist. Them: You can't judge a person by looks! What does a "rapist look like?!" Me: Exactly like Maruius Hoiby. (does not drop mic, but throws it like a fastball at the Lannister boy's huge forehead).
