Introverted, until I'm not. Lover of photography, most forms of music, awful puns, and integrity. Currently mourning the passing of American democracy and common sense, and looking for ways to salvage both.

Exactly. Most people don't care about stuff, until it directly impacts them. This is especially true of ignorant, self-absorbed people.

Harsh but fair. He did pretty clearly spell out what he was going to do. He also lies almost every time he opens his mouth, so that should be a sign he was never someone to believe in the first place. #DonTheCon

Good morning 🐬 I implore with you, please mobilize your friends, family, community etc. to get out, go through whatever bureaucratic trouble necessary, and #VOTE 🗳️ We cannot afford to stay at home again, only because we would have liked a different candidate !! They win when you stay at home.

This right here. Serious shit. He will do it.

🔥🔥🔥 👀 Updated numbers show that Trump stole $1700 from every household in America through his illegal tariffs. We should demand direct repayment to every household through check or tax credit… not to big business- as we’ve already paid the increased prices. www.jec.senate.gov/public/index...

When they say the man smells, it's the reek of pure evil they're getting a whiff of. Hanging that image of himself on that building is wrong on at least 3 levels. He must be stopped.

John Collins@logicallyjc.bsky.social

He is so embarrassing. It’s unreal.

Great - now it's our duty to boycott Walgreens. F'ing private equity firms taking huge pleasure in destroying our economy for their own short-term profit.

Senator Bernie Sanders@sanders.senate.gov

During the holiday season, we all want to spend time with our loved ones.   And yet, just two months after buying Walgreens for $10 billion, the private equity firm Sycamore Partners stripped hourly workers of paid vacation, including Christmas and New Year’s Day.   Shameful.

Never before has the Earth witnessed such a complete combination of hatred, evil, incompetence, greed, vindictiveness, ignorance, deceit, and - well, pretty much every trait you pray your offspring don't have. If Satan decided to take human form, he'd be the vessel.

People demand impeachment, Article 25, or putting him in prison. None of those will prevent him from destroying our country. If you think he's evil now, wait until his back is up against the wall. He'll sell whatever state secrets he hasn't already sold, or worse. We can only hope he croaks soon.

Dear Executives, Please know the American people are going to turn your business upside down as soon as you bend the knee to this fascist regime. See what happened to Target? 40% loss in value and CEO fired. We’re doing that to Disney/ABC now, and you’ll be next 🙂. Sincerely, Your Customers

Did y'all know that if you want to create a new account on facebook (like for using with Marketplace), they force you to submit a video selfie of yourself, with views from various angles? WTAF?! I guess they want to make damn sure that the personal data they collect and sell is valid, huh?

Of course. The blood can't figure out how to get back from the legs to the heart, because he doesn't have one.

Politico@politico.com

Trump was recently diagnosed with a common vein condition after he noticed swelling in his legs. The health update follows online speculation about the bruises on Trump’s hands.

Why can't these corrupt pieces of ancient shit just stroke out already?

PBS News@pbsnews.org

Democrats walked out of a committee vote Thursday to advance the judicial nomination of Emil Bove as Sen. Cory Booker accused the committee chairman of rushing the vote without following Senate rules.

Either he's flailing at ways to distract everyone more, or he's completely batshit crazy now.

The Democratic Coalition@thedemcoalition.bsky.social

The media needs to cover Trump's mental decline like it deserves to be covered. How does someone not remember appointing the very Fed Chair that he spends every day vilifying? This man is not well. #25thAmendmentNOW

Here's a thought: How about if we all refuse to use the stupid names that Agent Orange tells us to use for stuff? Like "Gulf of America" or "Alligator Alcatraz," or "Big Beautiful Bill." Just don't say, print, or give them any life whatsoever. He does it to watch his sheep follow. Don't follow.

Replying to @newseye.bsky.social

As Trump heads to the so-called “grand opening” of the Florida migrant facility, this definition - from the Holocaust Memorial Museum - needs to be widely shared and understood.

Just watched BBC World News, and found it interesting that a news source known for being balanced interviewed two Republicans about the horrendous bill approved by the Senate, and being voted on now by the House, yet they didn't interview ANY Democrats or Independents. We got one side of propaganda.

No American flags visible, no red, white, or blue in sight. Just Agent Orange's other favorite color (gold), and a ridiculously large presidential seal. Honestly, I'm surprised there wasn't a giant banner with his mug on it.

Amanda Carpenter@amandacarpenter.bsky.social

If someone tells you this charade was to celebrate the military show them this photo. Who and what do you see at the center. This propaganda shot cost millions of dollars to produce. Every element is intentional.

As I said as soon as the squabble started, there's a really strong likelihood that the whole thing was staged, to do two things: 1. Further manipulate the stock market 2. Distract Americans from all the havoc they're wreaking in their obvious goal of destroying our democracy.

Trump and Musk’s whirlwind week of fighting begins to slow down as Musk posted an overnight apology to the president in the wake of their online spat.
