thank you for this. there’s comfort in having an aspect of control over your life to fall back on when everything around you is going straight to hell & there legitimately is nothing you can do about it, whether you ever reach for it or not.

This queer Black brokie thanks him for his work. He couldn't solve the entire problem himself, but he made a significant difference.

It’s not the drugs. It’s the trauma. If the trauma remains, the drug itself won’t matter.
Meanwhile people with #chronicpain are being stripped of both pain and mental health medications.
And TACO forgot about illicit fentanyl.

James Talarico is a US Senate candidate from Texas. CBS prohibited Stephen Colbert from airing this interview or in any way sharing his photo, statements or bio. Do your job, BlueSky and give this YouTube video better exposure than CBS ever could.

i think jesse jackson was one of the most important american political figures of the post-war era and i think that his 1984 and 1988 campaigns for the democratic nomination still have a great deal to teach about forging a path to a more egalitarian world. RIP.

Republicans are successfully building out Orban's state media model here in the states. It's really not very subtle.

Convicted of assault for getting assaulted A timeline of political retribution in this city under the dome

@billshaner.bsky.social reporting is stellar.

There are serious repercussions from this conviction & prosecution. Beyond the personal cost, this is about chilling community defense & police misconduct enabled by prosecutorial discretion.
