Preorder Read This When Things Fall Apart @mskellymhayes.bsky.social · 1d

They're talking about killing leftist activists. They're talking about murdering people organizing in defense of immigrant communities, doing mutual aid work, and protesting their violence. They are talking about murdering people like me and my friends. We must do more than acknowledge it's fascism.

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

On the bright side, I can reveal what spooky game I had in store! I’ve come across a new S.T.A.L.K.E.R mod pack, and you KNOW I have to try it. Look forward to spooky chornobyl fun on Monday!!

I hate that I keep doing this, but I’ve had such a rough day honestly that I’m moving todays stream to our open Monday slot. Things have been kind of rough for me lately, I’m sorry I keep moving stream. We’ll be aiming for three streams next week, we gotta enjoy the spooky season while it lasts

Hey everyone! We were supposed to go live at 1 but I’m pushing stream back today so I can do my civic duty and get vaccinated! We’ll be going live a little later today, hope everyone is having a nice Friday so far!

if blue state governors and mayors aren't already thinking about the reliability of various police forces nominally under their control, they should start immediately

with Portland there's the depressing addendum that 90% of why this is happening is the right wing media grifter ecosystem got badly addicted to viral Portland content during the Trump years and they've been fiending for another hit ever since

its truly remarkable, you have to really take the measure of it and it's almost hard to comprehend it, but the president of the united states is having texas invade illinois and oregon just to make twitter content

Speaking as someone with exactly zero stake in the matter, the bsky mods need to take a week off and hire a PR rep or something. Posting through it has had the same effect as throwing a Molotov into the server room. No one wants to hear the dumbass waffles joke yet again

Hey everyone! We’re going to cancel stream today, I was hoping moving it would help but it has been a very exhausting weekend so far!! I’ll be posting a schedule for this week in the next day or two, I hope you have a lovely Saturday!
