Lot's of "I'll never vote for Newsom" going on today and while I sincerely hope I never have to cast a vote for him, if he does somehow end up the 2028 nominee, yes of course I'll fucken vote for him because a guy who sucks is still better than a guy who sucks twice as bad

A reminder that Presidents' Day used to be two separate holidays they combined into one because the true spirit of America is and always will be "fuck workers"

When an acquaintance told me I was crazy for getting an "unproven vaccine" I told him I'm not afraid of any vaccines and that I once ate a pill I found on the floor at the bar

RFK Jr: I'm not scared of a germ. I used to snort cocaine off of toilet seats.

Navajo code talkers but it's just a dude speaking spanish

Alford: "On Bad Bunny - we're still investigating. There's info out about the lyrics. I don't speak fluent Spanish, but if it's true what was said on natl TV, we have a lot of Qs for entities that broadcast it & we'll be talking w/ the FCC. This could be worse than the Janet wardrobe malfunction"

Watching luge and I can't decide if I were to try and ride one down, would I have a thrilling but relatively safe ride at sub-olympic speeds? Or would I simply now be an out of control ice missile rocketing toward imminent death or serious injury?

You really don't have to announce that you aren't watching the Super Bowl or that you don't like sports. I'm sure you'll have a great time adding emojis to your bio and complaining about the orange man

Dems (correctly, I believe) expect to do very well in the midterms and that terrifies them, so expect them to push a bunch more do nothing centrist suits that they trust to push back against any meaningful change.

Patrick@cleverturnip.bsky.social

bigger worry for me at this point is the Democrats getting handed a victory and not taking advantage of it in any meaningful way.

Got a bunch of eugenicists who think it's the government's responsibility to solve their problem of women being repulsed by their genetics

Kylie Cheung@kylietcheung.bsky.social

they're trying to be coy about salivating over the prospect of raping women, they'll contest that but if pushed to explain, that's exactly what they would describe. forced pregnancy of any kind, by a man or by the state, is gender-based violence

I like a lot of veggies but I'm picky about how they're prepared. I only like them prepared one way: buried under a block of melted velveeta

Maggie McNeill@maggiemcneill.bsky.social

I like a lot of seafood, but I'm very picky about how it's prepared. With a few exceptions, I only like seafood prepared one way: fried. Every other kind of animal flesh - beef, pork, chicken, whatever - I can enjoy in a variety of styles and recipes, but not seafood.

"If you don't respect me as an authority, then I won't respect you as a human being"

Julian Sanchez@normative.bsky.social

This is sort of a throughline in cases of excessive force used by law enforcement. The civilian is supposed to perfectly adhere to some unwritten code of conduct; the armed professional supposedly trained for such situations is only human & must be given lattitude if they succumb to fear and rage.

Give every single dollar you've made spreading your dangerously garbage opinions for the last decade to a Minneapolis mutual aid fund and we'll talk about being happy with your change

Henry Mance@henrymance.ft.com

Bluesky idea: if people who didn't agree with you change their opinions so that they do agree with you, why not be happy that you are making progress - rather than complaining that they are "only just catching up"?

Lot's of people calling to boycott the Olympics, world cup, and super bowl are the people who say "sports ball" unironically. Let me see you boycott bluesky for even half a day

Cut off in traffic by some asshole in a Civic speeding and weaving through traffic only to see them pulled over two miles up the road

If we come out the other side of this, after abolishing ICE and prosecuting every member and supporter, we need to burn every plantation, tear down every confederate statue, and rename every Robert E Lee/Nathan Bedford Forrest/etc school street and park.

Every so called problem the right complains about is fake. They're either completely made up, like somali child care fraud, or something that is objectively good and just pisses off conservatives, like trans rights

"What if the baby you abort grew up to cure cancer?" What if grew up to be Mike fuckin Johnson?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Mike Johnson: "I was the product of an unplanned teen pregnancy exactly one year before Roe. A lot of people tried to convince my very young parents that they should just take care of that problem. But I am eternally grateful that they allowed me the chance at life."

You are up to date.
