Hi Bluesky! I've been offline a lot for the past week or so, getting prepped for a Medicaid inspection and my son's SSI application appointment. Never let Trump tell you disability is fraud. We jump through so many hoops. We have to prove he is disabled every year. We track every expense.

I decided to put the "final" research-style essay for my college writing course 2nd to last, & made the last unit a creative sci-fi project. The results are unbelievable. Students are finishing the course relaxed and happy, and their sci-fi projects are incredibly creative. I'm enjoying this, too!

Quite The Accomplishment For Mayor Mamdani's Administration, Along With Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch and The NYPD..... (Spectrum News)

The tricky part for a future Dem Admin is going to be finding a way to divest the US govt from these companies without tanking their stock price & hurting them over the long term. What Trump is doing is a fundamental tenet of communism while he distracts by claiming Dems are.

NO ONE wants Data Centers. NO ONE wants their cars tracking your every movements. NO ONE wants Flock camera's. So who the fuck is installing them? And why are we just taking it???

I'll never understand why a nation that defines itself as a bastion of freedom and liberty spends nearly all of its time fighting to legally discriminate against two-thirds of its population.

Spokane, Washington. In 2024 governments gave $725,000,000,000 of taxpayer money directly to the fossil fuel industry. We’ve PAID to inflict these horrors on our world. Our children are going to pay a great deal more. We are nowhere near angry enough.🤬🤬🤬 Climate Dad

WATCH: ProPublica & @drilledmedia.bsky.social found that oil and gas companies have been funding climate research at prestigious US universities for 30+ years. This research fostered a misperception that climate change could be solved without dramatically curtailing fossil fuels: propub.li/3TTgAGp

This is insane. We are attacking a NATO ally.

Two top Republicans, both originally pro-Trump, confirm the US attacked Spain using Morocco as a proxy. US paid Morocco at least $40M two weeks before the Ceuta breach.

Many of the 1.3 million COVID deaths could have been prevented. The US has the highest death rate from COVID-19 in the world! When trump got COVID, he had the best medical care in the world. Trump immediately got his COVID vaccination shot and then told the American people to drink bleach.

The US needs universal healthcare, not more war. It's time Israel learned how to negotiate peace with its neighbors. They will never bomb their way to peace.

BREAKING: The top U.S. general in Europe has privately warned the Pentagon that he needs more naval forces to keep shielding Israel from Iranian ballistic missiles. Destroyer deployments and maintenance are stretched thin after months of war, officials say.

No money for Medicaid but money for Trump to buy 11 ice breakers, twice as many as the Coast Guard asked for.

Archaeologists Find Hundreds of Ancient Glyphs in the Amazon (Gift Article)

The geometric earthwork structures, carved into the ground with embankments and ditches, are in some cases more than 2,500 years old, researchers said.

Elon Musk is planning to spend at least $100 million to help Republicans in this year’s midterms. That’s just 0.014 percent of his current $702 billion net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

Even for a regime with more scandals than you can count, this ranks near the top as one of the most egregious and criminal abuses of presidential power in history.

So many sneering elitist journalists with snarky posts over the past months that the Reflecting Pool story was trivial. It was so trivial that the DC US Attny presented false evidence to a grand jury to indict an innocent man to please the President while they both lied about it.

How is Ken Paxton able to own at least 15 real estate properties worth around $9 million—including a $1 million property in Hawaii with an ocean view—on his government salary of $153,000 per year? Explain it to me like I’m five.

I 💙 my chicken coop at night.

Republican Rep. Max Miller is facing mounting calls to resign after his ex-wife accused him of pouring hot water on her and holding a gun to her head. Today, Emily Moreno filed for a restraining order against Miller, alleging abuse involving both herself and their 2-year-old daughter.

I was wondering if anyone was keeping a running total on Trump’s waste and abuse. You have to check out this video. And there’s so much, I bet you forgot about some of it: 💰Ballroom: $1 billion project, taxpayers already on the hook for $300 mill 💰 J6 Slush Fund: $1.776 billion for his rioters 🧵

This is crucially important.

New in PN: The new "science golden age" looks suspiciously like a grift "It’s impossible not to wonder whether part of Trump’s loathing for universities is that there's no way for him to corrupt the process and make money off it in the same way he can by giving billions to Silicon Valley types."

Founders said to start over when tyranny \ non representative government for a reason!

Donald Trump has not been to the grocery store since 1982

Charlie Mas@charliemas.bsky.social · 6d ago

Donald Trump is living in a past era when people paid for their groceries by writing checks. Back then, some stores asked for ID before they would accept the check, especially if you wrote it for more than the cost of the groceries to get cash back.

Republicans did this.
