Meet my new bestie, Mr. Bingley!

Folks, Jordan Wood is running for the U.S. Senate in Maine in 2026.
He’s a Democrat. He’s 36 years old. He’s a progressive.

His campaign emphasizes anti-corruption, standing up against corporations and wealth, and pro-democracy reform.

Check him out…

It looks like a mausoleum.

This is the AmeriKKKa that’s always been and too many people claim not to recognize.

Plenty of white people will celebrate someone pissing on the memorial of an ASSASSINATED non-violent leader.

But we’re not a racist country.

Ex-HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra: The CDC under RFK Jr. is a "disaster unfolding"

I am VERY excited for this announcement!

YES! He very clearly said "the sequel is gonna be worse"!

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

I lost my dream job.

For doing journalism.

For fighting for people to able to express themselves.

In America.

When the government can silence one artist, it threatens freedom for all.

'Today, despite being a modern young man with high emotion dysregulation, having just committed a significant crime, I shall turn my attentions to calmly and coherently messaging my roommate in the style of an Edwardian melodrama, with a convenient, clear confession of guilt...'
Yep. Seems legit.

Still killing me that Massie is on the right side of history on a subject.

Especially one that will surely end the career of several of his co-workers.

Release the files!

Trump’s Plan To Use the State To Crush Dissent Read more here.

A president using the power of the state to punish critics — or to condition basic government services on political fealty — is not merely rough politics. It is aimed at crushing dissent and free and fair elections. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Their waists and hands were tied together, forcing them to bend down and lick water to drink. The unscreened bathrooms contained only a single sheet to cover their lower bodies. Sunlight barely penetrated through a fist-sized hole, and they were only allowed access to the small yard for two hours. Detained by US immigration authorities for eight days, the workers and their families expressed shock, describing human rights violations and absurdities they could not have imagined as ordinary Koreans living in 2025.

korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

After Charlie Kirk's death, teachers and professors nationwide fired or disciplined over social media posts At least a dozen faculty and staff have faced fallout over insensitive comments online.

I am having a hard time reconciling "Charlie Kirk was a fierce advocate of open dialogue and free expression" with "we must identify and persecute everyone who is insufficiently mournful"

The Guardian has now completely retracted quotes from an anonymous high school source who had called Tyler Robinson a “leftist.” The source now says they couldn’t accurately recall details of their relationship.

Ketchup bottles hitting the interior White House walls.

Things feel uncertain right now, Illinois.

I want you all to know we’re doing everything we can to protect your rights.

Federal agents arrest firefighters working on WA wildfire Federal agents showed up northeast of Lake Cushman to check identification of crew members fighting Washington's largest active wildfire.

ICE took 2 firefighters OFF THE FUCKING FIRE LINE!?

We all know the goal was always to “own the libs.” And in chasing that, too many have given up their own freedoms just to claim a hollow “win.” What they don’t see is that the monster they fed never stops, it eventually comes for us all. And now their silence is deafening.

Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.

Walz: "It boggles my damn mind that in the midst of a military takeover of our cities, the flaunting of the rule of law, that the press finds the need to talk about, 'Oh, there's a division in the Dem Party.' There's a division in my damn house & we're still married and things are good. That's life"

Vance: "If you go back to World War II, if you go back to World War I, if you go back to every major conflict in human history, they all end with some kind of negotiation."

Washington Post, May 8, 1945: "Germany Surrenders Unconditionally."

Went to get a ticket in LA. Even the seats in the mezzanine were hitting the top of my budget 😭😭.

Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me? Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

Ok, it took me way too long to get that. I’m embarrassed but once I did 😂💯
