The closest I’ll ever get to being up in lights in Times Square That phrase isn’t Keelah Se’Lai It’s the Quarian phrase I created for #MassEffect Annihilation. The name of my ship Not “by the homeworld I hope to see one day” but “by the homeworld I hope to find one day” I have a lot of feelings…

I’ve had to correct so many people who kept telling me that the phrase was wrong. I kinda wonder if it’s a little more appropriate since a lot of us want to free everyone from EA’s clutches. 💕

A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...

thank you jason statham for continuing to make movies for me, personally the original has a scene in which a scammer tries to bribe statham with nfts and is immediately tied to a truck and driven off a bridge and there has never been anything more laser-targeted at me in my life

@menendez.house.gov Vote in a new speaker first. This weak sauce list doesn't contain Punish the Fascists as the first order of business, and there is no business if you don't do that.

Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, who is in line to become House speaker if the party wins power, said Democrats will be united "right out of the gate" on reinstating ACA tax breaks, reversing Medicaid cuts, holding votes against the Iran war and undoing the president's tariff regime https://to.pbs.org/4B3jZ6E

YES, DELIA RAMIREZ, YES.

Rep. Delia C. Ramirez has introduced a bill that would abolish not just ICE, but the DHS altogether, repealing the 2002 law establishing the agency and replacing it with one focused on protecting civil and human rights.

Thank you Ukraine.

A lot of MAGA influencers on X are seeing their engagement PLUMMET today. Even official White House accounts are seeing far fewer defenders in their comments. Why is that?

wrote on saturday that trump was not going to let democrats avoid the question of impeachment and here we are with an offense that would have had a president impeached, removed and *at least* exiled if it had happened at any point prior to now.

this is indeed a criminal investigation, in the sense that everyone involved in pursuing it is a criminal

@menendez.house.gov @andykimnj.bsky.social Accountability and punishment are your only goals.

Patrick Wyman@patrickwyman.bsky.social

There is absolutely no viable path forward for this country that doesn’t hinge on extreme accountability for everyone involved in this administration. They’re going to whine about politicization and credulous media types will echo them, but the thing is, they’ve committed tons of obvious crimes!

The world is asking itself how on earth can the USA dig itself out of this moral and intellectual hole. The Reconstruction Papers are a solid antidote to Project 2025. I hope it all comes to fruition.

Ossoff is acting like Trump/MAGA/GOP and what they’ve done to the country is Actually Bad. Charismatic and well spoken, which sure helps. But no “my friends across the aisle,” no acting like the imaginary “Baileys” are the only ones who matter, no “don’t talk values, only kitchen table.” That’s it.

Bill McKibben@billmckibben.bsky.social

Figuring out why Ossoff is so effective is an interesting task. I think he's mastering a kind of stern dignity that is uniquely compelling in contrast to the clownish cruelty of the other side. I think the other person who's kind of hit on the same thing is AOC, though in a different register

An amazingly stark example of how the US economy has broken: Zaslav clears nearly a *billion* dollars amid a CEO tenure where he made basically anything he touched worse, harmed multiple prestigious brands, led huge layoffs—but delivered a corrupt merger for shareholders. variety.com/2026/tv/news...

Given that there is not likely to be a national, bipartisan demand for accountability in the wake of Trump — the major distinction with Nixon — any accountability, civil or criminal, will be a partisan and political project that I think should be pursued as vigorously as possible.

Ossoff's superpower is that he correctly thinks his opponent is a contemptible piece of shit and he is willing to explain why in clear and direct language. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Anthropic banning “abusive or cruel behavior” toward Claude in its new usage policies is proof to me that tech companies are going to moderate violence against AI before they ever moderate violence against women and minorities

The American white collar workforce started working from home three days a week for like six months a year into COVID and executives so thoroughly lost their minds over this that they installed Trump II. If anything, AI will create the 7-day workweek.

the bsky team is working on various ideas for creating smaller social spaces in the app. which use case is most interesting to you? 1. posting into "topics" that organize public posts 2. posting into "communities" or "groups" that can be public or private 3. posting directly to your followers only

If you want to really know how the outrage machine gets fired up: 1. Schmitt plans to drop “bombshell” on Smith 2. Someone plants story that Schmitt is a Vance VP contender to run same day 3. Right-wing Twittersphere gets talking points 4. Schmitt steps in it 5. Scheduled tweets go out anyway
