Starting my read of Camp Damascus by @chucktingle.bsky.social right before bed might have been a bad idea while also being a great idea.

This is the agency some Dems are considering voting to fund? This should be the easiest “hell no” imaginable. Call your member of Congress and ask if they’re going to vote for the “Kidnapping Kids and Using Them As Bait Act of 2026” indivisible.org/actions/ice-...

Well, I guess thats the end of me giving them money.

Oh no…the planet-destroying product you made from stolen IP is useless? That sounds like more of a you problem than a me problem.

It cannot be made clearer. If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

I mean, they're still terrible for not crediting their creatives anymore, but at least this is something.

Citing a Trump executive order banning "gender ideology," the VA is withholding coverage and treatment for male veterans with breast cancer, an increasing condition among veterans exposed to toxic chemicals during service. 100 male veterans a year are diagnosed with breast cancer.

Yet again i want to remind everyone that Bill Gates and several other billionaires have invested in mining projects in Greenland that are only accessible because of melted land and sea ice, he and other billionaires are essentially shorting the planet

Ohio LGBTQ+ youth gain XP and craft queer tales through tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons. “To be able to see representation of [your identity] and then see yourself [or] your experiences reflected in the game can be really heartwarming." ✏️ @bjodway.com via @reportforamerica.bsky.social

The GFRobot article about Star Trek fans being majority male/conservative is still going around several days later, so I was to say 1) don't click on it or they will "write" more just like it & 2) the site is known trash. Here's my Star Trek Feminist Community starter pack! go.bsky.app/BJx9pao

i think its good that bluesky is boring and you dont want to scroll through it too much because you're not supposed to waste your day away scrolling on social media when you could be using the computer to play & draw & learn before the corporations destroy the rest of the internet. tick tock

This is real study btw www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Del Toro, they could never make me hate you

We Have at least 70? years of science fiction exploring this proposition and all reaching the same conclusions as Josie. Which I only bring up because everyone involved in this AI thing is a science fiction fan, but not one who understands what they read.

This is America. It’s happening now. Right now. Not in the future. They’re just disappearing us in the streets.

Almost nobody my age or younger has a real shot at owning a home. We need to ban hedge funds and private equity from buying homes, restore federal support for building housing, and expand VA-style home loans so working people can actually afford to own where they live.

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

If you were concerned about Kimmel, here's another for you… Journalist Mario Guevara has been detained for 100+ days, ironically arrested as he reported on a "No Kings" protest. The Trump-Vance admin just issued an order of final removal, to send him to El Salvador—where he fled from 21 years ago.

People with autism and their family members say that the messages coming from President Trump and RFK Jr. about their families, that “autism destroys families” and that autism is a "“horrible, horrible crisis,” are harmful and wrong. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2025/09/23/r...

Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum. This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

if you have a Christian family you’ve been wanting to wordlessly abandon tomorrow would be a great day to do it

The problem in America ... Its belief that bigotry is a value

oh no...

The way MAGA is using Charlie Kirk's death to bully people is gross and anti-American.

The right laughs at trans people’s deaths but demands people be sad over Charlie Kirk www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/09/the-...

Feeling overwhelmed by the endless waves of bad news? That’s not an accident, it’s a tactic! Authoritarians flood us with chaos to wear us down. They want us to stop paying attention. But we can fight back. 💥 Resistance isn’t always loud. 🌿 Softness isn’t surrender, it’s strategy.

There's been a fair number of questions about how the upcoming Burned Over edition is going to differ from Apocalypse World 2E, and we can't wait to answer them all! Follow along here! #PBTA #ApocalypseWorld #ttrpg www.kickstarter.com/projects/lum...

It feels so fucking insane to be scolded about how leftists need to tone down our rhetoric while the world's richest man endorses this shit

“What radicalized you?” Bro I was told to treat people the way I would want to be treated in kindergarten and it made sense idk what else there is to say

Pushing Daisies

Everyone has a 1-2 season TV show they sorely miss and not enough people knew about that you are always praising the heavens about. What's yours?

lead the kind of life where your death will probably not be followed by a wave of threats against black universities

Don’t ever let the Trump Administration tell you they support the First Amendment. This is a shocking violation. The United States Government has no authority to tell people in this country what to say or not say.

The retort of "but what if [literally anyone] is in the Epstein Files?!" is so funny to me. I chucked one of my all-time favorite writers out of my heart and mind this year, you think I wouldn't do it in a heartbeat for a politician or billionaire?
