it's funny how his childish power fantasies basically reflect what the impact of his policies has already been on America; this just feels like his presidential legacy altogether: an entitled manchild cosplaying a king and flying around dropping shit on people.

Donald Trump is not just the most immature, insecure, stupid person to ever become president; he is the most immature, insecure, stupid person to ever become famous.

I’ve never seen or understood any reason for cops on horseback other than “parade” and “for to trample people”

Video from earlier when horses ran through the crowd. Cops were swinging batons randomly at the crowd as well.

In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.

Jonathan M. Katz @katz.theracket.news · 13h

Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.

Folks are asking what to do about the One Special Boy's AI vids and whether they should share them:

MOCK THEM WITHOUT SHARING.

This creates what an enthymeme, where readers have to SUPPLY PART OF THE REFERENT to understand what you are mocking. An enthymeme is the STRONGEST form of persuasion.

I got on @bluesky yesterday wanting to troll and have a good time. After about 20 minutes, I had to delete said account. They are disgusting!
Mostly porn, trans porn, and just. I had to delete that account and wash my eyes.

Just in time for the No Kings protest…

“Putin’s Glory Hole” sculptures are popping up all over DC, courtesy of a mystery artist. They’re bolted down, so good luck taking them down.

Support the arts.

This is the beauty of BlueSky. No-one will be force-fed this via algorithm. Trolling draws blocks rather than amplification.

David S. Bernstein @dbernstein.bsky.social · 1d

By my count: Of the 15 Departments of the US Government, 13 launched new BlueSky accounts tonight (all but Justice and HUD), and all 13 have posted explicitly partisan political posts blaming Democrats and/or Chuck Schumer for the government shutdown.

I am once again trying to tell BlueSky that their block function does not work on some browsers. I can see posts by people who block me and whom I block.

BlueSky so far has not even responded to my multiple attempts to communicate this.

@bsky.app @safety.bsky.app @support.bsky.team

Apologies for not providing proper alt here, but I don't want to attract the attention of the page I've screenshotted.

What it shows is an account I've blocked but with their posts below still showing.

oh and also that they are a bunch of dumb bitches who shouldn't have political power.

cyberpunkwitch @cyberpunkwitch.bsky.social · 1d

nothing describes them better than that they are a gang of nihilistic violent extremists engaging in child trafficking and grooming, thuggery, and drug sales who hate America and want to destroy the government and hurt everyday Americans.

"every accusation is a confession" applies doubly hard for accusations lobbed at trans people, women, people of color by the orange fash and his band.

The reason I post a lot about toxic masculinity and masking is because many of us have lived it - and it’s quite terrifying to feel physically unsafe because someone is that angry at you for protecting yourself

Our federal tax dollars are being used to fund a network of government social media accounts that pump out disinformation 24/7. Even during a government shutdown. It’s definitely not essential work.

This government suffers from severe loser stench. Everything they say and do is a barely veiled form of "I'm the BOSS and you have to RESPECT ME!" and nobody does. Millions of people are going outside tomorrow just to say so

Cops led us into the street as the new “protest zone” and then beat us repeatedly.

Got hit in the face with a baton. Leaving to pick up my friends who were arrested.

Stay safe out there.

This picture is from about 5 minutes after being hit. A visible bruise is forming on my right cheekbone and by my right eye.

somehow it feels appropriate that the ai bullshit-field bubble and the trump bullshit-field bubble both feel like they are about to pop at the same time. Maybe because they're deeply financially intertwined.

She spun her answer into a wider attack on Democrats, claiming the interview proved the party’s “main constituency are made up of Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens and violent criminals.”

“That is who the Democrat Party is catering to,” she added.
