I'm seeking another web designer/developer/SEO specialist to partner up with. WordPress familiarity = ideal. If you know of any such person, please let me know but don't tag their names as a reply here, I want to inspect them before considering whether or not to work with them.

US joins Russia to vote against UN resolution condemning Russia’s war against Ukraine | CNN Politics The United States joined Russia to vote against a UN General Assembly resolution condemning Russia’s war against Ukraine Monday in a stunning shift from years of US policy.

For the US to side with Russia and North Korea to oppose a UN resolution condemning the illegal invasion of Ukraine defies all common sense and adds insult to the countless injuries suffered by the brave Ukrainian people. edition.cnn.com/2025/02/24/p...

Trump administration tells agencies they can ignore Musk order on email reply The Office of Personnel Management told HR officials that employees wouldn’t be let go for not replying to an email asking what they did last week.

President Trump and President Musk need to get on the same page. After creating unnecessary chaos, they once again prove their incompetence.

On Monday morning, TV sets at the headquarters of the Department of Housing and Urban Development played the seemingly AI-generated video on loop, along with the words “LONG LIVE THE REAL KING.”

and hmm who else is worth following? not all congressfolks I'm interested in are on Blue Sky (yet)

How horrible that much of the most important articles are behind a paywall. While the worst "news" stories are pushed on us by right wing propaganda $$

*I had to screenshot this because, stupidly, CNN does not have a direct link to this story. Soon it'll be more available as a news story from other sources, so I suggest you look it up with related keywords, if interested. Breaking news story, barely any sources have articles on this so far.

A Message for these times. Read and Remember

RIP. Not the best tribute but..

hmm I'm still getting familiar with Blue Sky, not sure why I can't see all comments. I probably have duplicate ones to this post -- FFS, their developers/designers need to do better.

Capitol Riot Convict Says She Would 'Refuse' Pardon From Donald Trump Pamela Hemphill was sentenced to 60 days for her role in the Jan. 6, 2021 siege.

I know, I know, there are much more important stories in the news right now, but I found this one about an ex-MAGA grandma positive & amusing

Kash Patel Also Lied about Trump's Personalization of US Intelligence - emptywheel The lies Kash Patel has told are likely to be aired at his confirmation hearing, but at unlikely to dissuade Republicans to vote against his confirmation to be FBI Director. The most important lies pe...

Let me state this more clearly: If Dems can't make a stink out of fact that Aileen Cannon is preventing Dick Durbin from learning info directly relevant to Kash Patel's suitability to be FBI Director, they wouldn't make use of any report that gets released anyway.

“Obsession for National Security” stands out as being absolutely not a true Trump/MAGA concern. To the contrary, if we’re being real.

How many of these do we have?

A lot of people who voted for Trump are already regretting it, learning what the tariffs will do, his cabinet picks so far, etc. Like the scene in Ghostbusters where the EPA guys shut down the protection grid at the GB headquarters. The technician who does it goes "oh, shit" right after doing so.

Full blown MAGA? I sure don't think so, I think what he's angling for is blending the populist left with the populist right & eventually winning over the PR to swing to the PL/progressivism. But he & especially Ana have been, IMO, a little too nice to MAGA for my taste. *my 1st reply 2 anyone @ bsky
