Hello! As a quick introduction, my name is Aldous and I am on Bluesky for two completely different purposes: as an arm of my long-running progressive talk radio program, "TMI with Aldous Tyler" (hence my handle) and to stay connected to the pro-wrestling fanbase (AEW/Heels, and Indies especiaily).

@hbomax.bsky.social is having real issues playing @aewontv.bsky.social Dynamite tonight - coming back from ads with no audio until the app gets restarted, and one time NOT coming back from the ad break without restarting the app (Apple TV+).

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D - NM) recorded her experience in trying to report for work the day BEFORE the government shutdown. Watch how her single powerful video exposes the lies being spread on official government websites about who caused the shutdown:

So, to be clear: if you believe fascism is bad, and are thus anti-fascist, and are thus antifa, you are now a terrorist according to Trump's executive order.

Hello fellow terrorists.

“Well you wouldn’t be discriminated against if you just hid everything about who you are from everyone”

That. IS. Discrimination.

The USA isn't having a "Free Speech Crackdown". That's so ridiculously sanitized, it's like calling suffocating someone to death a "Free Air Crackdown". CALL IT WHAT IT IS. IT'S FASCIST DICTATORSHIP.

Spotted on UW Madison campus near the WSUM radio studio by my friend:

This is a photo taken 9/18/2025 in downtown Madison, WI on the UW-Madison Campus. It shows a construction site with a raised scaffolding platform extending outward from the side of a brick building. On the very edge of the platform, high above the ground, there is a bright red portable toilet precariously placed. The setup looks unusual and somewhat unsafe, as the portapotty is perched far out over open air.

Jimmy Kimmel was silenced for calling them out for trying to score political points off of the death of Charlie Kirk. To be fair, I'm sure that's what Kirk would have wanted, but the point is this: they don't like it when their lies get exposed so publicly. So keep doing it.

Feels like four years ago:

We all have COVID again. Be careful, this strain broke through our vaccinations and isolation protocol, and RFK Jr doesn't fucking care.

Innocent students, who have never once said the Second Amendment is more important than people's lives, get shot, and we say stop the violence.

Charlie Kirk, who declared the Second Amendment was more important than people's lives, gets shot, and you say stop the violence.

We are not the same.

Crochety Gen X post incoming:

On a completely different topic than is going around right now: in 1980, a pack of these weighed 1.8 oz. and were $0.25. Now they're 1.5 oz for $2.19. following general inflation, it should be $0.98 today for a 1.8 oz package.

If you are a woman and want to keep your dick, do it.

If you are a man and love that you have a cunt, keep it.

If you are intersex, and don't want to go under the knife, don't.

You are who you are. Your body is just a vessel for that.

Aldous Tyler @tmitmitmi.com · Aug 25

And the simplest truth is this: that means that you don't have to have top surgery, bottom surgery, or any other form of bodily alteration to be the gender you are.

If you want to, if that's affirming, by all means.

But don't let them tell you you have to have it.

Let's be clear about something.

Gender isn't sex.

Sex isn't gender.

If you are a man, it doesn't matter if you were born with a body whose sex doesn't conform to that.

Same if you are a woman.

Same if you are neither, both, or are fluidly somewhere between.

Giving poor people some money makes crime go down better than giving cops more money.

Says science. We did the science. We keep doing that science. Nobody in a suit ever cares tho.

First they make money be needed for everything. Then they make credit card companies needed to use your money. Then those companies get to dictate what you can spend it on, and the artists starve (even more than usual).

A meme titled "The Myth of Artistic Freedom". It shows a pink haired artist drawing on a tablet labeled 'NSFW' saying "I want to draw it!", a gray generic happy customer holding cash saying "I want to see it!", and the logos of MasterCard and Visa shouting "I DON'T". Below that the meme says "Isn't there some random payment processor you forgot to ask?"
