"Vote blue no matter who and hope that maybe they listen to you when they get in office" I have been told this for the last 20+ years by centrist/corporate dems. Now that progressive candidates are winning elections that demand doesn't go the other direction.
“For a long time,” Chan says, “misogyny was dealt with as a domestic issue within the family home or within personal relationships. There needs to be an understanding that this is a public safety threat.” @cultmtl.com cultmtl.com/2026/07/trea...
Treat incels as the violent extremists they are
Misogynistic incel subculture — elements of which have become disturbingly mainstream — is a serious public safety threat.

Amazon Web Services is abandoning its plans to develop data centers on the campus of the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, a move that comes after fierce voter pushback against hyperscale data centers in Calvert County’s June primary election. marylandmatters.org/2026/08/04/a...

Medicare for All isn’t "too much." A $16,000 deductible is too much.
Luigi Mangione is demanding that his murder trial be broadcast live. He also asked the court to provide a live overflow feed inside the courthouse so journalists and members of the public who can’t get a seat can still follow the proceedings.
Don't threaten me with a good time.

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 want someone to research this. Why do some people do things like blocking an entire grocery aisle with people piling up both directions while they talk on their phone, then walk off like there weren't 20 people angry waiting on them? Or stop in the doorway of a busy store and just stand there?
If you are fed up with all the jumbo sized SUVs menacing public roadways, take solace. Every one I have seen in the last two days that was under 3 years old already had rust coming through the paint.
AI is trying to take over tech jobs and art. But I'm still doing my laundry the same way I did it back in the 80s. There is no app or anything that can predict what would be the best days to do lawn work and flag them in my online calendar based on the weather forecast, or when to water the garden
Cities and PD insist this spyware is totally safe and secure ... because the Flock salesman told them it was.
DeFlock Redmond@deflock-redmond.bsky.social · last wk."Flock’s website promises oversight: transparency portals list which agencies data is shared with, every search is logged, and data is shared only with approval. None of it matters when someone can pick up the phone, or type in a password, & use another agency’s login." #deflock #surveillance #alpr
Data Centers are not "job creators." They are resource extractors, siphoning off our water and power.
A plan I can get behind. Repeatable processes, add in some sorely needed ethics rules that must be followed. Avoid all the drama and fraud.
Khashoggi's Ghost@urocklive1.bsky.social · last wk.The best new idea I've heard this week is a campaign to replace CEOs with AI. As long as they were programmed with some minimal amount of social conscience, I'm pretty sure they'd do a better job. And think of all the millions of dollars they'd save! I hope the business world takes a look at this.
A federal judge just ordered all of the Epstein files to be turned over to him and DOJ must defend each redaction. This is solely because of Katie Phang’s lawsuit. Yay independent journalism! 👏
After a light show, each drone flies itself back to an exact spot in its charging case, guided by GPS/RTK coordinates loaded before takeoff. No manual handling for thousands of units.
BREAKING: In my lawsuit against Todd Blanche for the Epstein Files, Judge Sullivan has just ordered Blanche to produce, in camera (in chambers), the UNREDACTED emails & documents, and Blanche must bring documentation supporting his representations the DOJ’s redactions are what he claims they are.
THIS THIS THIS!!! People (usually white dudes outside the US) keep screeching at everyone stuck in this that we need to "protest more" or take on the US army with baseball bats and garden rakes. What they miss is that you can't shame this regime into leaving, or anything really.
Nancy Levine Stearns@nancylevinestearns.bsky.social · 2w agoJournalists must stop normalizing Trump. "Hitler was impossible to discourage, not because he ran an efficient machine but because he was immune to the normal human impediments to absolute power: shame..." www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
Also applies to anything good that might make most people's lives a bit better.
Kevin M. Kruse@kevinmkruse.bsky.social · 2w agoThis is a standard ice tactic. In Mpls they would do this and shove the car up on the snowbank, then smash windows, drag people out. Leave the car there abandoned.
Charles Keener@charleskeener.bsky.social · 2w agoAccording to the written statements of two witnesses who were in the van when he was shot dead, two unmarked vehicles struck them from behind and the side, forcing their vehicle to come to a halt.
Last year, TSA began sharing passenger manifests with ICE, and ICE began arresting people at airports. After some initial arrests led to backlash, ICE pulled back a bit. But with the pressure on from the White House right now, we're seeing a lot more arrests at airports recently.
Jenn Budd@jennbudd.bsky.social · 2w agoJust received this from immigration attorney Mo Goldman. This is why ICE is in the airports. Please share! @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social
Dear frozen pizza makers: Please make air fryer sized pizza for hot climates so you don't have to heat your entire kitchen up. Thanks.

Good attitude going into the rest of the week.
Coach Gowron@coachgowron.com · 2mo agoWe often fear the future, the unknown. But a true warrior faces forward, confident that their strength and honor will help shape that future. Why should someone who carries their own light ever be afraid of the dark?
