Well, the price of American flags just went up.

Came home for lunch and I find myself eating cereal and watching the animated Batman series. It’s either nostalgia, or trauma induced regression.

FBI academy, Quantico, VA, 2025. Donald Trump, literally graywashing the values out of America.

So it’s very much seemingly like the federal funding for the research project that’s slowed my health decline has been “paused.” Boy, I hope those eggs are cheap af.

If you don't have anything nice to say about CDs don't say anything at all

I’m guessing folks are about to learn that “DEI” and trans and immigrants don’t actually have such a dramatic effect on the rising costs of things, the housing crisis, crime, etc. Just kidding. Guessing that folks will learn is wildly optimistic for someone with my personality.

In a memo obtained by NPR, acting health secretary Dorothy Fink forbade staff from public communications on most matters until Feb. 1, unless they get express approval from 'a presidential appointee.'

Let's. MF-ing. GO

Plz look at this magnificent pencil box @cboaz.bsky.social gifted me for Xmas.

I wish the media would start covering congress members activity instead of being a megaphone for EVERY. FUCKING. THING. he SAYS.

The loss of historical information and design is such a difficult consequence of the fires.

I love the irony of Christmas lights inside of gated communities.

Humans of NY kind of went away for awhile, but this post today resonated with me.

IMO the reason every company in tech is forcing AI down our throats is because they over-invested last year and want to exit the investment before they get washed in a massive correction.

I’m excited for @gregcasar.bsky.social’s leadership at the Progressive Caucus. He’s going to be great.

Maybe Biden should go to Trumps truth feed and just issue pardons for everyone he’s already threatened? Just a thought.

During the pandemic rising prices *started* with only things that had a low supply and high demand. None of that stuff ever came back down, and everything else that competes for our money increased, & corporations raised profit margins. Why would they not jack the price of everything else?

Metal: Everything sucks, but I have my rage. Punk: Everything sucks, but I'll focus my anger. Rap: Everything sucks, but I know how to survive. Folk: Everything sucks, but there is beauty. Ska: Everything sucks, let's ignore it. Emo: Everything sucks, and I miss you.

The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

this is beyond amazing news

For this to work, we must adopt a policy of No Replies, Only Blocks to the bastards.

Simpler times.

Thanks for following us on Bluesky! We’re the official resistance team for the National Park Service.

Was there today for the H.R. 9495 vote (bill that would have allowed labeling nonprofits as terrorist supporting organizations). Voted no, of course - but I do want to report that the activism DID work and persuaded members. I thought it’d be a lonely NO vote, which we take often. It wasn’t.
