Thank you for your service, Cheryl.

Words matter, like the adjectives below.

Keep using senile. Liar. Psycho. Conman.

Unwell will be used as a defense later on.

Fred Guttenberg @fredguttenberg.bsky.social · 2d

This senile liar who currently occupies the White House does not remember that he was President on January 6th.

If you voted for this senile liar, and if you enable him today, you clearly are ok with breaking America. The ruins of our once great nation are because of you.

I witnessed a protest by the cotton-top wing of Antifa on Friday! They were outside a local Fox affiliate peacefully exercising their First Amendment rights. Maybe my town will be liberated next.

Not trying to be childish, he seriously reminds me of this crusty Darth.

encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn...

Darth Sidious, a man whose inner evil is reflected on his face. Deep ruts run across his grayish complexion. Rust brown circles surround his yellow eyes. His teeth are blackened chips scattered within a mouth that crowns a chin that could be mistaken for shriveled testicles.

We all need to print these simple facts and leave them as cards on store shelves, public bathrooms (truck stops if you’re frisky)…

Portland needs to keep sharing awesome moments from their real lives in the city. Post the best food spots. People helping people. Dog parks. Frogmen flying kites. Whatever to counter the lies.

“We should replace Bad Bunny with Lee Greenwood” is an also a perfect summation of the “deal” they’ve offered universities.

11ish AM EST, happened to drive by my local Fox affiliate. There’s a group of elderly women out front holding anti-trump signs and waving upside flags. One’s holding a bullhorn and listing off the ways trump sucks. Patriots.

This in-depth decision regarding home baking is the kind of stuff that makes me check BluSky every morning. I love the intelligence and goodness in this post’s comments. And the bread porn.

Anyone with friends in OH, remind them that we just gave Argentina $20 billion after they sold soybeans to China.

Sent a friend two examples yesterday of “Prime Day Big Deals“ that were more expensive or the same price on Amazon. Breville espresso maker was the price on Crate and Barrel and Macy’s as it was on that swamp.

Claire Adida @claireadida.bsky.social · 5d

Why is a class action lawsuit against Amazon alleging Prime Day is a scam getting zero coverage by mainstream media?

Could it be because media outlets get a cut when a customer purchases a Prime Day product when clicking through their featured deals?

h/t @juddlegum.bsky.social

UPDATE: Lawsuit alleges Prime Day is a fraud

The federal class action lawsuit has been ignored by major media outlets, which continue to promote Prime Day deals.

Yes! Together is the way and holding our money. Let’s start boycotting more of the enablers. I’ve been boycotting Amazon for a year. I’m adding Apple to my list. Need a new phone. Won’t be an Apple this time.

If people show up at your door and identify themselves as the police, call 911 and ask them to verify if these are real cops or to send the police. Cite recent events just like Ingoglia did.

South Florida Sun Sentinel @sun-sentinel.com · 7d

"You lack values," two Florida grandparents wrote on a postcard they sent to state CFO Blaise Ingoglia.

Then two armed men wearing bulletproof vests stenciled with the word “police” showed up their door — they were from the criminal division of the state Department of Financial Services.
