Fight fascism

Jan Crawford was on the PBS News Hour for years. People incorrectly thought that program was liberal. She’s a conservative stooge.

Why would anyone be shocked that the psychopath who owns Instagram and is in Trump's back pocket turned off the "No Kings" account during protests? Get off Instagram. Get off Facebook. Get off Twitter. If you're still on those platforms, you're part of the problem.

Saw the incredible Neko Case in concert last night. Her music defies categorization. Such and incredible talent. And, for a bonus, she had a no mobile phones policy, which made the entire event even more enjoyable.

If you close your eyes when John Sununu is speaking, you'll swear it's Neil Sedaka.

Every election cycle, people say Texas will turn blue. I’ve been to Texas. Won’t happen. Won’t be close.

Has there ever been a weaker political campaign issue than Mike Minogue’s “gas tax holiday”? His boy Trump’s disastrous war has caused the spike in prices.

For the record, I think Ed Sheeran’s music is terrible. Now, we find out he’s a craven coward.

Alito and Thomas are corrupt and shameful. They are the legacy of Poppy and Dubya, who were more polite versions of Trump.

Oliver Darcy at @status.news summit: What do you think of journalists still on X? Kara Swisher: It’s grotesque. “Oh, everyone’s there.” If everyone’s at the nazi bar, do you go?

Why do you appreciate unions? I’ll start: Weekends off Paid vacations Work breaks Sick leave Paid holidays No child labor Safer working conditions Health care and retirement benefits

Big loss. May she rest in peace.

I lost my job, my kids have measles, I can’t afford gas, I can’t breathe, and I can’t eat lettuce or strawberries without getting explosive diarrhea. But at least now schools are forbidden from celebrating Black History Month.

CBS and Bari Weiss may have created their own biggest competitor. Reports say journalists fired from 60 Minutes are planning to reunite with former exec. producer Bill Owens working bring on Scott Pelley, and other former correspondents/producers. This is how you do it.

If your winning issue is trans women in sports, and you're struggling to uncover trans women in any league that anybody has ever heard of, then how do you keep trans athletes at the top of people's minds? Answer: You invent them. defector.com/the-right-ha...

Fox made a legal filing after January 6 saying they were an entertainment channel, not a news channel. Yet, millions of bigoted Americans continue to watch it for “news”.

If I can’t eat produce soon, I’m headed for the cardiac unit

The U.S. House passed a bill to make daylight saving time permanent, but it faces a fight in the Senate before it can become law. Not everyone is cheering for more evening sun, though. Revisit @erinkeane.bsky.social's 2022 story on why standard time is the better deal.

Apparently all the AI in the world can’t help find the source of the parasitic outbreak.

Looking forward to Argentina vs. Switzerland: Who Holds More Nazi Gold?

Not defending Platner, but Kavanaugh got approved while the Dems correctly called for Platner to step down.

Iran humiliated Trump, Hegseth and the United States, who elected a criminal, con man and moron twice.

the single biggest takeaway i have from this interview is that on top of being profoundly incompetent, bari weiss and her flunkies at CBS are genuinely terrible human beings. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/07/m...

Sonny Rollins had always known the musical life was for him, and he revelled in his gift. But his serenity, onstage and off, disguised his rough road to fame

Nick Bilton looks like a guy who stepped out of the shower in the middle of his "Just for Men" application.

I’ve been to Washington D.C. at least seven times. The city just has an evil vibe to it now. Horrible place to be.

Shout-out to the Bond movies for making an evil tech founder a super-villain back in 1985, at least 25-30 years before the rest of us caught on.

“The Sorrow and the Pity,” a four-hour documentary from 1969 about Nazi-occupied France, chronicles the way that many ordinary citizens simply lived their lives as if nothing had changed—and the film is more relevant than ever, @dgraham.bsky.social argues.

it is important to emphasize that this was *the point*. this was *intentional*. elon musk is a vicious white supremacist who thinks poor african children ought to die, so that the world can be whiter

Agreed. He’s a moron with incoming dementia

Seeing Bob Dylan in concert now for me is like going to Stonehenge: it’s not what it was, nobody can quite figure out what it’s for, but we’d miss it awfully if it wasn’t there.

This is likely the most important article the Times has ever dropped. It verifies what many of us have suspected: the Roberts court is inherently corrupt and a political arm of the Republican Party. I urge everyone to read it (gift article): www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

Same. I got involved in IT because I thought its leaders were going to be different. Turns out, they are worse than the robber barons.

The weekend summary: “Peace” talks with Iran collapsed while Trump attended a UFC match Trump attacked the Pope The military announced they would blockade an essentially closed Strait of Hormuz The Trump-Vance backed fascist leader of Hungary lost in a landslide We are an embarrassing country.

The bots on Bluesky are cooling my enthusiasm for this platform

A well written piece

Waiting to see how the NY Times spins this as a Trump victory

If Jesus had focused more on kitchen table issues and less on unpopular outcasts like lepers and prostitutes, he might have won more support from white working-class Judeans.

A country where Flag Officers are dismissed on the whim of a president or a secretary of Defense -- and where it's tolerated by those in a position to stop it -- is a country in decline

Didn’t really enjoy my college years at Notre Dame, but the fact the attorney arguing Trump’s case against birthright citizenship is an ND grad disgusts me.

The fact that the court is even hearing this ridiculous, racist case is a disgrace. Every new breach defies credulity and yet.

“No Kings” should be renamed “No Fascists”. King is too kind a term for what’s happening.

The dollar amount isn’t as important as the fact that this is the first jury verdict of its kind against Meta over harm to young people.

Humanity is a question to which, as yet, there is no good answer

Attacking Iran is not a distraction from the Epstein files, it’s a distraction from this.
