Julia Is Moisturized, Unbothered, Not Asking for Money
@booktweeting.bsky.social
That’s not me asking for money, it’s someone spoofing me. I promise.

Non-stop book reviewing lady! Also writer, editor, aunt, godmother, curmudgeon. I love books and birds.

No DMs, sorry! I am extremely shy.
I am so sick of seeing the “only Gavin Newsom pushes back on Trump” bullshit on my timeline

when every day, Black and Latina and Arab and South Asian and East Asian women in Congress are out there doing the thing

miss me with the fluff jobs for Governor Goodhair
Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

KFF’s @larrylevitt.bsky.social advises signing up now, because once enrollment open ends you won’t have another chance.
You can sign as a hedge, in case a deal is passed, and decide to drop out later if there’s no deal.

We have gotten so used to Great Replacement becoming normalized that most people hardly noticed that a racist, antisemitic, xenophobic conspiracy theory popularized by mass shooters and 4chan trolls is now government policy.
The U.S. State Department is repeating a white nationalist conspiracy theory.

On Friday, it claimed that “mass migration poses an existential threat to Western civilization.”

That line comes straight from the Great Replacement myth: the lie that immigration is a plot to erase white populations.

every now and then somebody comes in and just tosses a golden apple of discord like it ain’t no thing
What’s casserole?

Seriously, I’ve never eaten one in my life.

Is a lasagna a casserole? How about a shepherd’s pie?

I miss Link.

He was pointed commentary AND was also super funny.

this is the way

not voting for anybody for President of 🇺🇸 who can’t do this at the very least
@teni.bsky.social don't seem to use their bsky account so I'm posting this over here from their facebook because people should see it: one of the first things our new President Connolly did last week was write the community a letter for TDOR 🏳️‍⚧️

my hottest take is that suicide and assisted dying should be decriminalized but not offered
I will be the first to admit I couldn’t understand why anyone would oppose Assisted Dying… and then I became disabled and had it “offered” to me.

It’s not compassionate when there’s coercion.

It’s not dignified when it’s offered in lieu of care.

Listen to disabled people.

thus he refutes James Carville
On Monday afternoon, Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani told Hell Gate that the NYPD infiltrating and spying on courtwatch groups would not be acceptable under his administration.

real populism is a) inclusive of all the people, and b) exclusive of the systems that perpetuate inequity
I still think the winning platform is or will be Debt Jubilee! It will be wildly popular especially right around the time it needs to be.

this is also a terrible plan, bee tee dubs
Rand Paul: "What is the Republican plan for healthcare? My plan would allow for people to buy their insurance through a collective. Basically to buy their insurance through Costco or Sam's Club or Amazon."

And Carville had the audacity to invoke Mamdani's win to make his point? Mamdani didn't go "anti-woke" to win. Quite the opposite! www.readtpa.com/p/a-politici...
A Politician Actually Defended Trans People. It Shouldn't Be This Rare.
Many Democrats are treating trans people as politically toxic. NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani released a two-minute video proving there's another way.

I know I have a bunch of former military moots on here; somebody help Simon out
Any #USveterans #Veterans here can help me out? I’m genuinely perplexed by this fuss over a former officer warning soldiers not to obey illegal orders.

the DOGE mission was fully accomplished

a) destroy public service infrastructure

b) steal everybody’s sensitive private information

c) give Elon Musk a chance to act important
NEW: Social Security’s chief data officer, Charles Borges, has resigned, three days after submitting a whistle-blower complaint that alleged members of DOGE had uploaded the confidential personal information of hundreds of millions of Americans to an insecure cloud server.

Instead of this shit, perhaps you'd like to read an article on the real Robert Kennedy, a scumbag who stigmatizes autistic children. Here's one I wrote for @defector.com back in June.

hey, #ComicsSky, let’s get some pet peeves for John!
Comics artists who work with writers, I am doing a class for young comics writers and I would like to include some ANONYMOUS quotes from artists about things they hate getting in scripts. More "17-panel pages and cross dialogue" than "horses and bicycles". My DMS are open. SECRECY ASSURED.

what a legend

his music will never be forgotten
His wife Latifa Chambers anounced that Jimmy Cliff, beloved ambassador of reggae music, has passed at age of 81.

A star since the 1960s, he helped to bring the sound of Jamaica to a global audience and his lead role in the The Harder They Come (1972) is a cornerstone of Jamaican cinema.
