Weird how Antifa never asks me for money. Everyone else does, but Antifa is very quiet.

Regarding Stephen Miller~

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

Of course, the big downside of having an unusual name is that I am very easy to find. I'd definitely be a sitting duck if I pissed off the wrong people.

I use username "mike.ferdinando" because my name is "Mike Ferdinando."

Being able to use "firstname.lastname" as your username without having to append a bunch of numbers is one of the perks of having an unusual name!

Yeah... when was the last time you saw a sign advertising a pay phone? And that sign with gas prices in the background shows unleaded at $1.43 a gallon.

This is how propaganda works. They slapped an image on this from Los Angeles in 1992 during Rodney King riots.

Every shameful era of history gets the quislings it deserves.

She Pushed to Overturn Trump’s Loss in the 2020 Election. Now She’ll Help Oversee U.S. Election Security. Heather Honey has been appointed to a senior position in the Department of Homeland Security. State election officials and voting experts are concerned.

Heather Honey, a high-profile denier of Donald Trump’s loss in the 2020 election, was appointed to a senior DHS position in which she’ll help oversee election security.

“DHS now appears poised to become a primary amplifier of false election conspiracies pushed by our enemies,” one expert said.

One should assume, if one had not already, that every single thing the GOP has to say about pretty much anything is a lie or fabrication.

This week in the Ultraviolet Grasslands, the caravan met the colossal crimson four-armed astral lizard-inhabited shell of the Rebuilder, commissioned a new one from the ancient autofac below, and forged a new body for Adoron (and Madame Red Star) before moving on.

Bingo. 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯👇

Link has always been a positive plus for Bluesky.

Let's be crystal clear the reason for his ban is goalpost moving because the CEO didn't like being called out for racism and bigotry.

That's it. That's literally it.

Been offline for a lot of the day so just now seeing they permabanned Link? AJ Link? A person who has done more community activism and organizing than I can reasonably name and one of the kindest, most giving, consistently community-building forces on this website? They fyckiung banned *Link*? jmfc

Free Link, @jay.bsky.team

So… Łink’s account is permabanned from Bluesky’s appview, but also gets banned from:

WhiteWind
Skylight
Bluescreen
Flashes

Basically all ATproto apps/projects?

WHAT THE HELL IS THE POINT OF THIS PROJECT THEN?

Link Jabari got his account permabanned because Jay misread a post of his. Despite all evidence of no wrongdoing on Link's part, Jay will not budge on reinstating his account.

This also revealed that joining other instances on Bsky doesn't mean you can dodge Bsky moderation, as Link was on Blacksky

I have *never* liked to drink milk, even when I was a child. I certainly cook with it, and my wife puts it in her coffee. (I drink coffee black.) We rarely buy more than a quart at a time, it it very often goes bad before we use it up!

Did you know that your healthcare premiums are about to double because the GOP is intentionally sabotaging the Affordable Care Act and pretending that Democrats are trying to give undocumented immigrants free insurance?

Played a super fun dark fairytale themed game of Trophy Dark last night via the Shared Hearth online rpg convention!

Shout out to @madelancholy.bsky.social for writing and GMing such a brilliant incursion :)

My Trophy Dark incursion, The Lovely Somnolent (based on the Briar Rose fairytale) is available with many other awesome games in this aid bundle for Diana Moon, an awesome creator in the TTRPG space! itch.io/b/3291/help-...

It is amazing how I went from "I would pay a monthly sub to keep this app ad free and maybe get some premium features." to "It's my solemn duty to be as mean to the ownership of this app and cost them as much money as possible." in the span of a year.

We can only hope. But when it does happen, there will be JUBILATION in the streets.

And there is no fucking way in hell that I will put my flag at half-staff for him.

What the fuck do you mean I got a longer prison sentence than Diddy

If the ongoing dysfunction in D.C. has taught us anything it’s that the Republican Party can’t even govern itself, much less the country.

But the chaos isn't happening randomly.

It's part of a manufactured plot to sew cynicism and get you to check out. Don't fall for it.

“Spineless Leaders Of Democracy - Stepping Stones To Glory.”

Honestly, I have no idea at all as to why this magnificent anti-Appeasement cartoon by the great David Low from July 8th 1938 should have come to mind in October 2025.
