I'll say it over and over. I do not believe in gate keeping. I do not believe in pulling up the ladder. I believe in kicking the wall down like the Kool-Aid man, and making room as I go for those who come next. Just because it was hard for me, doesn't mean it has to be hard for anyone else.

For @spitfirenews.com, I wrote about the police, military, and ICE escalating violence against immigrants, communities, journalists, officials, and anyone in their path—and how protestors are being blamed for it through abusive rhetoric known as DARVO. spitfirenews.com/p/the-argume...

get a feeling a lot of people unconsciously believe that they genuinely could've prevented the L.A. riots simply with enough signs and messages of "please don't, i'd appreciate it"

Just before the previous clip, the skater kid was practically taunting the Border Patrol agents by dancing around their munitions shots.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

The entire permanent staff of the Division of Environmental Health Science and Practice was laid off. This division addresses issues such as asthma and air pollution, climate change and health, childhood lead poisoning, and cancer clusters.

Direct hit on the Sunset Fire in Hollywood. 🎯 Nice work, @lafd.bsky.social #LAFD c/o @nbcla.bsky.social 👨🏼‍🚒

Bluesky should have a “top 8” friends list and you should be able to have the shittiest song ever automatically play as soon as someone clicks on your profile.

Can’t wait for the resistible force vs the movable object of Jags @ Raiders this weekend.

Mets social media team continues to be great and very online.

Juan Soto: New York Met

My mind saw "attacked each other or defecated" and I was "I s'pose that happens."

Here’s 15 to start with John Beckwith George Scales Dobie Moore Heavy Johnson Grant Johnson Dick Redding Dick Lundy Alejandro Oms Candy Jim Taylor (manager/player) Vic Harris (manager/player) Rap Dixon Gus Greenlee (executive) Newt Allen Sam Bankhead Hurley McNair

I wonder how much of this turnout drop was a result of the Jim Crow 2.0 voter disenfranchisement efforts implemented after the 2020 elections. Simple things like 1 drop box per county now instead of the previous 1 per precinct, fewer early voting days, etc.

Love how my loves of the New York #Mets, foreign policy, tech, and U.S. politics have all converged so quickly and easily here. 💙 @bsky.app

"what radicalized you?" idk I was raised in a Bible literalist cult so when they said to feed the poor and be nice to immigrants and pay your taxes and take the beam out of your own eye before asking about the mote in someone else's it kinda just sounded like a good way to go about things

Me explaining the differences between the four different Colorado Blvd Targets (Glendale, Eagle Rock, Pasadena, and Also Pasadena):

Many of us are echoing @timothysnyder.bsky.social's lesson in On Tyranny, "Do not obey in advance.” A no less vital admonition that deserves attn: STAND OUT “...without that unease, there is no freedom. The moment you set an example, the spell of the status quo is broken, and others will follow."

One thing I look for in a social network is not to have the CEO shove his reactionary political views in my face every time I open the app. So I’m happy here.

If they were gonna use a butterfly as the logo they shoulda called this Flitter

A reminder that this page is not, and never will be, a safe place for accounts with bigoted/right-wing ideology. To allow for respectful discussions, there must be a healthy environment which isn't possible with these accounts. We all came off Twitter to avoid them, so it will not be tolerated here.

Here’s my painting of the 1923-24 Leopardos de Santa Clara, the most dominant team in the history of Cuban baseball. With guys like José Méndez, Alejandro Oms, Oscar Charleston, Dobie Moore, Ghost Marcelle, Frank Warfield and Pablo Mesa, I can see why. Still really proud of this one.

This is Meatball. He's going home for the very first time. So excited to have a human of his own. Thinking about what he's going to call you. Maybe Bob. 12/10

The last Photo I took.... Hopefully the first of many more over here on Bluesky...

The more this place reminds me of why I liked social media so much the more I realise that I stopped doing so a long time ago. It’s extraordinary what happened. The volume & violence of posts from accounts you had never shown the slightest interest in just exploded. It *must* have been deliberate.

"The universe will never give you peace in something you were never meant to settle in."

First post is a repost. I agree with this Gent's perspective.

you know what. I kinda like it here. real twitter 2014 vibes: occasionally irritating, but without the fear that the third reich will reseruct if you say you thought Stellar Blade was mid

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Baseball is IMPOSSIBLE!! ⚾ Check out this Two Seamer & Knuckle Curve Overlay.

looks like the cable news anchors are finally asking minor questions like “what does a mass deportation actually look like” and “are you going to deport citizen children?”

Phew! 🔥

Turns out, it wasn’t Twitter/X we loved, it was each other. I can’t wait to see that platform collapse.
