What Kamala Harris proposes in not impeaching Trump is this the same reason why letting Jefferson Davis and the rest of the Confederate soldiers and leaders off the hook was a bad idea.. We've been paying for it ever since😡

It wasn’t even his job. He just killed 750,000 people for the love of the game

Detroiter Nicole Williams when asked if Abdul El-Sayed is ‘a bit too left wing to win in Michigan’: “At this point what do we have to worry about? Anything but what we have. We're on our way to hell, so at this point: socialist, socialize, social, dont matter to me, lower my cost of living!”

Michigan is one of America's easiest states to vote in, after being one of the worst. And Jocelyn Benson led us there. Proud to soon have a governor who'd crawl across the Mackinac Bridge covered in broken glass to protect my vote.

pretty much, yeah CEOs are very smart some of the smartest people alive I am sure 🙂‍↕️

Damn, that was a brutal inning for the Rays. 8 2-out runs by the Brewers!

Who do I give to to get this in front of as many Michigan voters as possible?

I love chocolate. This is a long, delicious, and frustrating read.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

this is honestly invigorating—maybe because the US far right has been on the rise most of my life, maybe because it suggests why the far right being unpopular is not enough. mostly: because it gives us something we can do

Hi. I, a trans woman, am the Executive Producer of this show. I wrote the question. He called trans girls men. He has now said it in three different places in the past week.

NEW: At least 18 voting centers in Alaska Native communities have not opened despite early voting having already started in the state last week. “There is no legal excuse for the failure to open these sites,” one state senator wrote to the Alaska elections chief.

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

i had to read this three times

We must expect that Meta's interference is happening in other elections around the world *right now*. This isn't just a one-off. Meta has proved repeatedly they are committed to advancing far-right agendas worldwide, are serial liars, and are flagrantly indifferent to the dismantling of democracies.

If still debating whether Donald Trump or Elon Musk willfully crippled Ukraine's missile defense, helping to slay innocent civilians, you are a rube. If the U.S. President had no role, then an oligarch governs national security. If not, the U.S. President serves Russia. Both answers are mortifying.

lol

This seems like a big deal

This is garbage. It's very easy to say: "My opponent is a creep who wants to inspect your children's genitalia. I think government should mind its own fucking business." Makes me sick that Turek doesn't have the guts or the interest in fighting for the underdogs here.

But there is something about the paltry lists that speaks to the ways in which straight men are penned in by norms. Like it’s easy to get a fun little gift for a woman you barely know!

It’s a subject that makes a lot of people uncomfortable and calling them corrupt and evil is easier. But the truth is that Republicans have a rape problem—one that they celebrate.

The way trans peoples' lives have been turned into a malicious political applause line is excruciating "Bill goes to school & comes home Jill"—no, but Bill's family had to flee to another state bc B/Jill faces daily violence & bullying by kids & adults LOL PLS CLAP My trans siblings I'm so sorry ❤️

Give this a listen. It’s becoming par for the course. And Democratic candidates - especially female candidates - now get it from both sides of the political spectrum.

Today marks 2 years since I started HRT. 2 years since Ken Paxton and the rest of the Texas GOP lost the control they had over my life and I was finally allowed to be myself. I’m proud to say that I voted against my attempted killer today. Fuck you, Ken.

You cannot force me to learn about some Content Creator who is a very Terrible Person and did a Terrible Thing. My life is full.

I wrote about the end of Catapult defector.com/catapult-eli...

The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history. Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar.

Donald Trump is letting big companies off the hook — and the American people are paying the price.

Me: "Even if it was unpopular, are you saying the Democratic Party should not speak out against the president sending migrants who have committed no crimes to be tortured in a foreign gulag?" @mattyglesias.bsky.social: "Yeah." Me: "Just stay silent?" Yglesias: "...You gotta win first."

Listening to this awesome Book Club Radio mix by @jojolorenzo.bsky.social has been a great way to power through the work day. youtu.be/rd2JWQkpwWU?...

This dude rules. This is positive masculinity, fwiw in case anyone is wondering. Rocking this at his age? Goals.

I love sex workers and I love furries and I love trans people and I love nsfw creators and all the people that first came to bluesky and made this site into what it is. The same people the devs of this site actively hate and keep trying to get rid of. May they never be swept away. Give them hell.

festering piece of shit.

It's kind of sad that literally no one loves him. Like if your father or grandfather or uncle or friend was doing this you would intervene. But nobody does.
