I just want health care for everybody and no more genocide in Gaza, but sure, a ballroom and a moon reactor, because we’re governed by Bond villains.

the destruction of chattel slavery is one of the great accomplishments in our nation's history and the reason conservatives hate celebrating it is because doing so legitimizes the black counter-narrative of the united states

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.

Audra McDonald gives another powerhouse performance from Gypsy at the Tony Awards. I feel incredibly lucky to have seen her sing at Kutztown University about ten years ago. #Tonys

Yep, another Saturday night post.

Here's a clip of Sara Bareilles receiving her honorary doctorate from Berklee College of Music.

Best line was Sara getting the key to the city in Eureka and they spelled her name wrong!

Every day should be like this for all of them. ALL OF THEM. ALL THE TIME. EVERYWHERE THEY GO. They shouldn't be able to go out to eat, to relax, to vacation, to shop, without someone making a noise.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance.

Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.

Panel 1: Mark Zuckerberg stands on the stage at a Meta all-hands meeting, wearing a little chain and a shirt that says "Cool Dude." "I think our company could use more Masculine Energy," he says into a mic. In the crowd, an employee raises their hand. "Excuse me, Mr. Zuckerberg," the person asks. Panel 2: The person stands up, asking, "By "Masculine Energy," do you mean a mature definition where men in power use their relative strength to protect and uplift those less privileged?" Panel 3: The person continues, "…or a more childish definition where men in power are free to be aggressive and harm others without being held accountable?" Panel 4: Zuck stands silent for a beat. Panel 5: "You're all fired," he says.

This TikTok scam by Trump is really something. In a few days, we will be hearing from Trump about how he β€œsaved Tik Tok” & β€œbrought it back.” He literally created the problem by calling for a ban. Rs pass a law. It gets banned. It goes dark for a day or 2, then Trump β€œsaves” it.

Congrats to the CEO of TikTok for his future purchase of an ungodly sum of Trump Meme Coins.

Kansas City is a great NFL team, but their nickname is terrible. The stupid tomahawk chop chant the fans do is terrible. Their kicker is a jackass. #NFL
