Every few weeks we gotta make posts like this”call your dem reps to tell them to not vote to allow Lord Killdude to shove people into a volcano” and then the dem reps go “we’ve made an amazing deal where Lord Killdude can have his volcano so long as he promises not to shove people into it”

incredibly funny that Joyce Carol Oates owned Musk so hard he's started trying to post like a regular person with normal interests

"I'm so, so tired of ads for Ozempic, Viagra, and AI garbage, please give me something else" A finger on the monkey's paw curls "Draft Kings is your number one destination for every sport!"

Art is emotion through expression. AI does not think and it cannot feel. It is a program designed to scrounge the internet to pass things off as its own. All the while stealing jobs from real artists and soaking up drinking water.

LOL I FORGOT SHE HAS TO PAY $360,000 FOR BEING A HOMOPHOBIC BITCH

They got cute and used Senators not up for re-election next year or ones that were retiring for the surrender vote. So here's the metric we use instead: If you aren't pushing for a new Democratic leader in the Senate *immediately,* you're out on your ass.

Doing that thing where I catch back up on Target news to see how the company’s doing and found out that they released these hoodies and then quickly pulled them from their website after, like, a day

The problem with "we have no choice but to do this thing Trump and the GOP want because otherwise the government stays shut down" is that there's no limiting principle.

Figures that the first significant blow to the Democrats since Tuesday would be dealt by Chuck Schumer.

"When your enemy is making one catastrophic mistake after another, interrupt them and save them from any consequences they might face." –Schumer-Tzu

👇 THIS has totally backfired. I'm not sure which Senator did what now, but it makes me want to see the entire Dem caucus primary'd. I don't trust a single damned one of them

Thanks for your service to the community❤️🏳️‍🌈🥰

Abolish the Senate. It's antidemocratic, anti-Black, and classist. It exists solely because the racist founders thought the House of Representatives was TOO democratic and because the southern slavers demanded a house of Congress where they'd have outsized influence. Get rid of it.

iirc 1 trans woman has qualified for the Olympics in over 20 years and she came last

So foul that this is absolutely what happened. They didn’t even flinch when it came to SNAP, but this threatened to possibly inconvenience them in a couple of weeks.

Well, at least everyone suffered for nothing.

Taco Bell’s new Seventhmeal promotion is looking pretty good

Chuck Schumer is a freaking shande every day. Grow a backbone dude. Our people have dealt with millennia of hatred and pogroms and genocides. You can deal with Donald Trump and the Republicans when people's food and healthcare are at stake.

This is the thing that drives me insane. Things aren't normal; this isn't politics as usual. And when you accurately describe everything this administration is doing, it's so lawless, radical, and authoritarian that *you* sound like a partisan extremist.

I need eight in every size and colour

the Rosetta Stone of dem politics is the 2006 senate primary which incumbent Joe Lieberman lost in part for making out with George Bush He ran anyway, won with GOP support, dems let him keep his seniority, chairmanships and perks & he rewarded them by obstructing the ACA & killing the public option

I am disappointed by the shutdown ending. I was kinda proud of democrats for a moment there

If you're defending Senate Democrats go ahead and unfollow me now because human beings aren't political pawns and making them go without food for over a month FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON is cowardice. Now people won't have food OR HEALTHCARE.

HAHAHAHA EAT SHIT, KIM DAVIS 🏳️‍🌈

I will never apologize for a post

Democrats stop selling out your constituents challenge Level: impossible

Favourite genre of bad history: "[ancient writer] predicted [modern writing that explicitly riffs off ancient writer]" i.e. "Plato predicted the Matrix"

So the Telegraph’s “BBC bias dossier” - supposedly written by ex-BBC adviser Michael Prescott - is being used to claim there’s a rogue LGBT+ unit “censoring” gender-critical voices inside the BBC. Let’s look at what’s actually in it. Spoiler: it’s nothing but recycled transphobic talking points! 🧵

Chuck Schumer is such a crate trained GOP lackey he's making Generic Moderate™ Hakeem Jefferies look like Malcolm X

Kawaii Kill 💗🖤

Money given to the Democrats isn't just wasted, it does active harm. Donate directly to people in need or grassroots, local orgs doing measurable good.

If gay marriage is overturned, how will the pickpockets at the Abbey ever find love?

straight to the dick. straight to their own god damn dick. every time. every fucking time.

So now can we be done having parasocial relationships with politicians? They are tools. They should be backed at the ballot box when necessary and criticized liberally in public. But not a single one of them needs uncritical public support and not a single one of them is above reproach.

To be the lesser evil you have to not enable the greater evil. Just saying.

The reason why flight disruptions were the breaking point for Democrats is that they need to not be in DC as much as possible. They need to go home. They need to fundraise. They need to not do their job. Trump and the GOP have now learned that next time, they should start with flight disruptions.

Im so exhausted yall, I dont know how to tell you how desperate our friends in Gaza are, because prices haven't gone down, aid is not flowing freely, there is no infrastructure and no work, but no one is donating. The horrors continue, the stress accumulates and they are all confused and frustrated

Genuinely did not see that coming. Guess I'll take it

The fun thing is, Char actually did find an effective way to send all politicians to outer space

actually the GOP reached its current ascendant position in American politics by "fighting for fighting's sake" and opposing every Democratic proposal as a bloc even when they had no hope of defeating it, hope this helps

we would all be better off if we all ignored the ny times or at least regarded it to be as truthful as the national enquirer

"Well what were they supposed to do? Fight? Against their enemies? Do you even hear yourself?"

This especially pisses me off. You cannot interface a computer with the human brain in any way that's not almost entirely surface-scraping. If there's any technology that absolutely positively won't happen in this century if ever, it's uploading your fucking brain.

Wow, a cow made of butter. My girls would love it. In fact, the first sentence Caroline ever said was "I like butter"

Me: “Do yall think I might have ADH-“ Everyone who knows me within a hundred mile radius: “YES.”

Lucy swears she won't move the football this time, you can definitely trust her, this is absolutely a good idea - Senate Democrats, unironically

It’s humbling that @dateeverything.bsky.social’s Barry Styles has regularly been called the best portrayal of neurodivergence in any piece of media by players discussing him. He’s made players cry, and made them feel understood or helped them understand. I’ll forever be proud of that.

Love that anything that doesnt call me slurs or advocates for me to be pushed out of society as unwanted scum now counts as unduly biased

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

in an abstract way it's funny how democrats held firm when SNAP was cut off but folded .5 milliseconds after one senator had their flight delayed

not really, no

Name a villain you sympathize with.

When an injection goes smooth and painless 🥵🥰🫠

This has been my question for Clintonian Liberalism since November 2016

This is our next con and my fiancée and I are cosplaying Maomao and Shisui from Apothecary Diaries so they can BE TOGETHER AGAIN 😭🖤

everything stinks, but please enjoy the highest quality jpg of the Stoned Fox I have ever seen

I'm sorry but why do these idiotic democrats who are maybe the dumbest people alive keep winning elections? They finally do something that gives them an ounce of leverage but the second they get the most minor amount of pushback they instantly cave. Absolutely useless.

Make no mistake, this ACA failure of the democrats will cost human lives.

One of the most under-used tactics in negotiation is losing on purpose

Weird request: in July @amnestyuk.bsky.social said they’d done a report on anti-rights groups in the UK Does anyone have a copy of that report? Their website only has this blog summarising it, not the report itself. News articles about it also only link the blog. I wanna read the full report!

I love being an alternative goth trans girl ☺️

if he votes yes on this durbin should never know peace

never been less inspired to unfurl my giant 'I Told You So' banner but it looks like Chuck Schumer may force my hand

People should understand that the "good" Democratic senators were in on this. If you're angry but your senator voted no you should still be angry at your guy (or gal).

Being normal about trans people is biased in monstrous uk

The only bright side is that this batch of Democrats are doing their level best to get kicked out of office. To read the political headwinds this badly is far past incompetence, it's malice. They might actually get primaried and replaced this time. Maybe.

please, Democratic voters who are shocked or dismayed that 'blue no matter who' still brought us here, for the love of God, it's time to listen to Malcolm. people asking for your vote should be terrified of not being good enough for you. it should keep them up at night.

during this day of political turmoil and failure, please spare a moment for the real victims of this Democratic betrayal: 'moderate, reasonable' lib posters on Bsky being forced to pretend their parties total surrender to fascism is Actually Good and just Smart Politics

Locking phones up in school - the time when children are already LEAST likely to be on them - will do NOTHING to stop bullying, poor mental health, isolation, or radicalisation! It will also have ZERO impact on the rabid transphobia that’s perpetuated through the mainstream media & politics! 😖

Me: *cursing at Schumer under my breath in Yiddish whilst making dinner* Mercy (who understands exactly what I was saying because she's been married to me for years): Love, Schumer isn't useless. He's very useful! He's useful to Republicans.

hey man, how's 'vote blue no matter who' working out? Good? ok cool, nice talk 👍

doing more exercises from “how to draw cute woodland friends” and made a small awoo

environmental hazard waste producers that exploit the medical system's refusal to treat adhd humanely

"oh shit people don't like our nazi CEO, quick let's remove all the branding from our cars, THAT will fool them!" is an all-time brain genius marketing move, every time I see one of these de-branded piles of crap on the road it gives me a chuckle

eat an entire bag of dicks

What pisses me off more than anything is that Esther Ghey does not at all get, or speak for, the trans community. But she gets the microphone and what she does with it hurts her daughters community

It's oddly affirming to suddenly find most of the Democratic base now agrees with me about the Democrats.

Oi mate you got a license for being normal about trannies

Fossil eggshells contain radioactive minerals that can be used to tell how long ago those eggs were buried, a way to determine the ages of fossil sites that lack volcanic rocks. I’ll tell you more at NatGeo. 🧪

Once again they have deleted Lubna's account. She is less than $500 away from her goal. Can you please help her? I really dont know what else to do, can you commit to supporting someone regularly? Lubna is exhausted and donations have evaporated, she needs love and support

To all the Crim, Mammon, Striker, and Paimon fans…I done told ya

Not a single reference made by Prescott about pro-trans “bias” was substantiated. Prescott did the same thing the BBC does in reporting on trans topics: - ask a handful of transphobic ‘gender critical’ ideologues for their opinions - ignore evidence - publish their bigotry verbatim as “facts” 😖

anyone who believes this shit has already lost their life savings to the wallet inspector the democratic party, as a whole, does not give one shit about you, or me, or anyone with a net worth lower than the party Donor Threshold

he's so beautiful 😍😭

“Footage shows a federal officer in a black vehicle launch the irritant out of their window and into the car of Rafael Veraza, 25, and Evelin Herrera, 24, striking Veraza and their 1-year-old daughter, Arianna Sofia.” They deployed it from inside the safety of their own vehicle into the other car.

If a person or an institution's entire personality is to only talk about what they hate and how they plan to destroy it, with no countering love or hope, they are not your friend. They are a wrecking ball.

more practice

45 people at church this Sunday. I won't be looking a gift horse in the mouth but I've got absolutely no idea why when it wasn't a remembrance service or anything... Numbers were up last week too. Interesting to see if the trend keeps up and the new faces decide to hang around.

I strongly encourage you to contact you Dem senators (if you have them) & tell them this is your position (I just did):
