I understand the white house has a Bluesky account now. What do we think the algorithms would do if we all blocked it en masse? I’ll go first.

On National Coming Out Day, know that I will always be an ally to you — no matter where you are on your journey.
I know that times may be scary, but you are seen, safe, supported, and loved here in Illinois.

On Juneteenth, we celebrate freedom and recommit ourselves to the work that remains undone. We remember that even in the darkest hours, there is cause to hope for tomorrow’s light.

On this Juneteenth, remember: slavery was once legal. Harboring a fugitive enslaved person? Illegal. Black freedom? Illegal. “Illegal is illegal” has always been used to defend injustice.
Legality ≠ morality. Justice calls us higher.
