Hear ye hear ye a message of hope and inspiration from our courageous leader in exile, Link. May all his loyal followers take heart!

I appreciate all the people showing love and support to me. I’m so grateful honestly. It means a lot. The ban isn’t that big of a deal for me. I think it was wrong and the explanation was bullshit. But that’s ok and I accept. Social media comes and goes. I’m grateful for all the connections I was able to make and all the people I get to be connected with off Bluesky. More importantly, the world needs more people to give a fuck. More people to give a fuck about Palestinians, more people to give a fuck about disabled folks, more people to give a fuck about our queer and trans siblings, more people to give a fuck about Black liberation. The world, and Bluesky, is full of bootlickers who will do anything to avoid doing anything to upset the status quo. These people are cowards groveling to those in power in hopes of protection. I just hope people continue to show love and care and kindness. Mutual aid is so important. Give when you can, boost when you can. We only survive this together.

I've been a huge thorn in the side of one of the worst of our producers. He's almost 70 and needs to just go away.

A boomer salesmen who has been the loudest about RTW just moved to 2,200 miles away to Texas. Wild how it's fine for him to be remote, but he thinks account managers who don't usually see clients should be in the office every day. When are these old fucks finally dying off? I'm tired.

All right, once again we're doing tonight's local urgent needs early.

Because . . . this is the level of crisis we have here. I'm going to ask you to do something before finishing the thread, which is to go read this: www.taosnews.com/news/local-n....

NEST shelter seeks volunteers after emergency closure

The NEST Shelter, Taos’ only year-round shelter for the unhoused, is seeking volunteers to help staff the facility after a sudden staffing shortage forced the shelter to close last week.

I came home blasting Fantasy by Mariah Carey this weekend and my very (hot) butch neighbor was on her porch watching me while sipping a beer with an eyebrow raised. I got out and told her I had lesbian sex and she air fived me 😂

Link is one of kindest people on the planet and this is what Jay banned him for

Link quote posted about Jay from the bsky team's choice to follow Jonathan Chait and Matt Yglesias, saying "Followinf Jonathan Chait after being accused of transphobia is certainly a choice." Jay banned him in response.

My Medusa! The headpiece is from Etsy and I embellished it 💚🖤

A picture of Cinnix staring straight at the camera, a long flowing green wig covering down past their breasts. Their mouth is slightly parted and eyes are adorned in green sparkly eyeshadow. They have a gorgeous headpiece full of gold and black snakes.

The “but that’s illegal” crowd is going to find out soon what those of us on the academic and research side have been saying for months is true in that you cannot “legally” fight a legal fascist framework when countering fascism is seen as terrorism and illegal

I hate asking but Uber this week has been incredibly slow for my partner, which is totally unusual for this time of year. Its left us in a bit of a bind for the last bit of rent we owe for October.

"What do you mean USAID was important?" 🫠

A meme showing an elderly woman at a MAGA rally wearing Trump gear and shouting with a finger pointed in the air. The words "I voted to be racist, not poor!" are in a text bubble under her open mouth. Above the meme are the words "MAGA Farmers Now"

The National Flood Insurance Program is shut down, and Hartford Flood is shut down

Trump is talking about giving child free women higher taxes. Fine. I'll pay them, but I'm not feeding this hellscape another innocent kid.

I work in commercial insurance and we are fully preparing for the NFIP (The National Flood Insurance Program) to shut down. It seems very likely, and will cause even more disruption to the insurance industry as well as finance and real estate. All because the GOP hates poor people 🤷‍♀️

El Negro Matapacos was a riot dog that participated in the 2011–2013 Chilean student protests in Santiago, Chile.
He later became a symbol in the 2019–2020 Chilean protests as a sort of resistance to police brutality and to represent the fight for dignity.

Two images of Negro Matapacos. The image on the left is a close up portrait, he is a black dog with light brown eyes, looking at the camera like a good boy, and showing his characteristic red bandana. The photo is edited, and it shows in the corner another picture of him, like a collage, this time with his blue bandana. The image on the right is a saint-like representation of the dog over a white background, with his head surrounded by a holy halo, he's happy and has his red bandana, at the top it reads Negro Matapacos with gothic lettering, and at the bottom he's surrounded by flowers.

For people asking what the point of no return is, it's once habeas corpus is revoked. The U.S. will never recover.

Sorry I should have said, they do not accept western influence over their own way of life. Obviously the U.S. caused them great harm like they do to every country they possibly can
