Never apologize for treating your dog like a baby. In a world that forces you to be tough, having a creature that lets you be soft, nurturing, and vulnerable is a blessing. You are lucky if one loves you, you are luckier still if you love each other.

I don’t want to vote for a Democrat who promises to get Trump’s voters to vote for them. I want a Democrat who wants to put Trump in prison

Whether or not racial bias is involved, I think it’s wrong for elected officials in power to redraw electoral maps for the purpose of subverting the will of their voters.

It's good—very good, and very important—that district courts keep issuing these 100-page rulings upholding the law. It must be incredibly dispiriting to see them overturned in a two-page, lawless, unsigned order, but please, keep them coming. They expose SCOTUS' corruption like nothing else.

Trans rights? Listen to trans people.

Women's issue? Listen to women.

Why WTP must elect & demand bold progressive leadership for the Democratic Party NOW
The passive "sit quiet & be patient for incremental change" message did not convince all of us. After decades of waiting 🥕, which also enabled Project2025 to metastasize unchecked, more & more of us are DONE.

Most of the Dem’s in the house & in the senate are absolutely complicit. Listen below! These two Gov’s elect absolutely confirm that the young blood is told to fall in line. It’s why each of them left the house and ran for Gov. They want to get shit done!

If we're not at war, Pete Hegseth is a murderer. If we are at war, Pete Hegseth is still a murderer. He's a murderer. And you don't need to go to The Hague to hold him accountable because there are perfectly good, American laws AGAINST MURDER.

Pete Hegseth Should Be Charged With Murder
No matter how you look at the strikes on alleged “drug boats”—as acts of war or attacks on civilians—Hegseth has committed a crime and should be prosecuted.

Current US Policy:
If you’re suspected of trafficking a small amount of drugs with no evidence, we will murder you, but if you’re convicted of trafficking an enormous amount of drugs with copious evidence, we will pardon you. Because we are currently a very stupid country.

When we govern from City Hall with dignity as the cornerstone of our politics, we'll be following in the footsteps of great mayors like @sanders.senate.gov . Grateful to the Senator for stopping by to talk about the work of building a government that delivers for working people.

Here's a quick internal check reminder, just before giving in to the compulsion to invest energy in responding to a provocative post:
(There are enough opportunistic energy siphons on the loose, even here on Bsky.)

I wonder if that’s too extreme to be real. Perhaps somebody lobbed that over the wall just to watch people get riled up.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.
But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.
The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.
