The Final Strobing Sun

Hey, we've all got to make sacrifices for no reason.

@imaginaryadvice.bsky.social I hope you're still making Imaginary Advice. I realize it's partially my fault, for not listening fast enough, but it's one of those shows that requires a specific kind of attention. So, no rush. Whenever you're ready.

Well I guess it's time to :::grimaces::: get up for (sigh) work. Had a dream my brand new favorite TV show (whatever it was) only released three shows before going on hiatus for a year, and was crying unreservedly. I guess It's going to be a weird day.

Will just leave this clip here of Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings talking about what’s wrong with America from a 1991 interview and it’s still all very true today

And yet there are millions of people who do business with him by buying his company's products and services. I can't remember the last time I heard of a company leaving Twitter (X). People seem to have just decided it's fine to support him.

Saying the quiet part out loud as the Authoritarian attempts to control the truth. #25thAmendmentNOW

When you're calling good hard-working innocent Americans "enemy", and smearing their religion you are the bad guy, end of story.

Bluesky CEO Jay Graber Is Stepping Down | WIRED share.google/QGMylxpFcvj4... Well, it was an ok run. Venture capitalists make everything better, everyone knows that. /s

share.google/QxHKhWKfdwMb... Guys is it discrimination to discuss with women how they might catch up in a male-dominated field?

Today is one of those days where I realize I just don't understand the people in this world.

Kristi Noem denies request to halt immigration crackdown for Halloween search.app/rGS "Christmas Eve and the Christmas Day Blitz will continue as well", Noem stated, "as we're hoping to cause as much chaos as possible, in Jesus' name, Amen"

Border Patrol agents under fire for allegedly disrupting children's Halloween parade in Chicago - ABC News share.google/x12oQ4Njbxvd... 'Border Agents "Under fire"' is a strange phrase to use when it's us, who are under fire by a regime whose goal is to cause maximum suffering for their own lolz.

Just like there is no organization called socialism, racism or even fascism. If I were ANTIRA, I would be for anti-racism or an anti-racist. Not in a gang or organization called Anti-racist. Don't let bullshitters bullshit you, prove you're at least that smart.

Can we officially be over the Green party? Like they're done right?

When Trump and MAGA talk about invading our sovereign states with military force they're trying to antagonize us into an altercation. If they can't incite one from us they will assuredly just create one. Who knows,maybe they already have.

@dearolddads.bsky.social Speaking of car commercials, those DHS child trafficking ads with Mario Lopez sounding like he's recording from a shipping container are really disheartening. "If your child isn't super outgoing they're predator bait"

I don't know why would put a man who looks like his cartoon skeleton was illuminated by spooky green lighting in charge of his own health let alone ours.

Your country, as you know it, ends next week. Be smart. Don't panic.

Dearest @bsky.app I think we'd all benefit from a "swipe left to mute account", "swipe right to block account" feature. Nothing against a lot of users but it might help remove some of the context-deficient posts in our timelines.

HOLY SHIT

Goebbles or Miller?

What “fascism” means Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DO6EvDz...

Did tech bros always want to be led by fascists or did they just adapt and embrace circumstance?

I'm curious if the influencers, for lack of a better term, here on BS just copy-paste their posts from the other platforms and don't really participate here beyond that. I imagine they just use an app that posts across social media.

I think it's important to name your fears. If journalist can say "I'm afraid of retaliation" they can meet the crisis head on rather than holding their fears in silence. The alternative is, of course, that they're not afraid, they're complicit. It's one or the other.

If you want to understand the failure of our media, since Kirk’s murder Republicans have fanned out across the media for interviews, all claiming Dems calling Trump ‘fascist’ causes violence. And not a single interviewer has pushed back with: ‘But Trump called Harris a fascist!’

All I know, as an ⚛️, is that, if God came to me tomorrow and said, I want you for my team, you are important, then proceeded to tell me that a group of people are evil and should be eliminated or tortured or treated like filth I would not believe that was God.

This is the only thing that will resonate or even make sense to them. Inevitability the cruelty of dictatorships comes for everyone.

The first step in being an American is learning to coexist with others. Our MAGA brothers and sisters haven't figured that out yet.

The fascist playbook really comes into play right now, where instead of doing what's good for the nation they punish their enemies and crush detractors. I mean we could have the world's best education, healthcare and quality of life but instead we get all of this.
