The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.

Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

What'll really bake your noodle is when you realize that the millennials who "make it" are the ones whose parents will die before they spent all their money.

And now there are no masked lesbian bars in the Pioneer Valley.

Mrs. Detective PikaBOO, Esq.@clapifyoulikeme.favrd.social

Okay gang, let’s do this. It’s time for bluesky to put on the best talent show this town has ever seen and save the non-firebombed covid-conscious lesbian bar.

i think it's closing for a litany of well discussed reasons but man every newspaper in the world sending a reporter to gawk at the covid conscious lesbian bar for a story really did leave an awful taste in my mouth

Outrageous story

Phil Lewis@phillewis.bsky.social

I spoke to the mom of the 3-year-old soccer star who was left "thinking he did something wrong" after a league official called police "due to a disturbance between parents" The youth sports league said they launched a review and reached out to the family

huffpost.comViral 3-Year-Old Soccer Star ‘Traumatized’ After Police Were Called In The Middle Of The Game“They called the police on a 3-year-old because he’s too good,” Nevada’s father, Don, can be heard saying in the video.

I would also add the America 250 takeover by the Trump administration/the reflecting pool/the expensive gilding of DC while prices on everything skyrocketed.

Nicholas Grossman@nicholasgrossman.bsky.social

Three moments broke Trump 2.0: 1) Kimmel and other attempted censorship after Charlie Kirk. Made public see the attack on speech. 2) Minnesota anti-ICE protests, Goode and Pretti killings. Made public see the attack on rights. 3) Iran war. Made public see bad foreign policy affects them directly.

I can't stand when y'all do this. Every fucking post of mine has some rando from whatever side disagrees with me nitpicking every little phrasing I make. It's not even a leftist/liberal thing, both do it! Accept some nuance for once PLEASE!

There's a whole swath of leftist bluesky that thinks i'm a lib piece of shit because the only time they ever see me is when another leftist quote dunks on me and there's a whole swath of liberal bluesky that thinks i'm a leftist piece of shit because the only time they see me is when liberals QP me.

It's fucking EXHAUSTING to get nitpicked all day everyday from literally everyone. Just once I'd like people to say "Oh Katelyn means well, maybe i don't have to quote dunk on her for phrasing something a little off"

The far right is international and they all organize together and raise money for each other. I'd argue it's critical to pay attention to elections in other countries.

My only hope is that whatever smart argument trans political writers come up with about the election gets stolen by a more popular cis white male influencer so that people will see it. /s

You all have seen Erin and I fiercely clash over tactics over the years, but this piece makes a wholly reasonable ask that I also endorse. The four in the header image especially suck shit.

Erin Reed@erininthemorning.com

The elections are on next Tuesday, and so much is at stake, including the soul of the Democratic Party when it comes to transgender people. I am asking you to leave a very small number of races blank in which a Democrat has embraced extreme anti-trans hate. I make my case here.

erininthemorning.comDon’t Vote For The Worst Anti-Trans DemocratsThe Democratic Party should, and likely will, win big in the midterms. We must not send the worst anti-trans voices to join them.
Katelyn Burns
@katelynburns.com

I'm going to write about this I think but a best case scenario in the "worrying about Dems taking an anti-trans turn" would see like Hamilton in Kansas elected and Turek eating shit. That would give us solid grounds to further the argument we've been making within the party on trans rights.

Katelyn Burns
@katelynburns.com

Josh Turek made the calculation that he doesn't need the votes of trans people or our friends and allies, so I say we see if his calculation is right. But no one in their right mind would ever vote for a candidate that would take away their daily medication. You shouldn't expect it of trans people.
