Now reading. The introduction may have healed me a little. @juliusgoat.bsky.social already you have done what you set out to do: put my feelings about all of this into better words.

Mike Johnson’s actions speak louder than his words.

He doesn’t care about protecting healthcare.

He’s protecting Trump from the Epstein files.

As for the bullets; after watching my 100th video of cops planting drugs or guns I started getting skeptical about convenient evidence; even if the gunman wrote the message, he literally did not shoot ICE.

If a guy beats an immigrant to a pulp with DAS KAPITAL that doesn't make it a Commie attack.

So the gunman in Dallas shot detainees, not ICE, and authorities are calling it an targeted act of violence against ICE. Got it.

Starbucks unions are practicing picketing as the company abuses its workers and denies them a fair contract.

This is your reminder to not cross a picket line and support workers!

NO CONTRACT, NO COFFEE.

This seems like the sort of conclusion that people who support a cancerous worldview must ultimately and naturally reach.
Cancer is good for you now, apparently.
Holy sh!t. The medical conspiracy theory now is that cancer helps the body fight toxins. This is so dangerous and people are believing her?!?!

Yesterday in the Oval Office Donald Trump said that some people in the US want him to be a dictator.

I’m running for Congress to stop that from happening. Please chip in our average donation of $32 to help me get there:

I listened to a podcast this morning where they repeatedly said “you can’t think without writing” and just to nip that one in the bud…

That’s wrong (there are many illiterate people and they all think) and also dumb (Socrates was famously both illiterate and had thoughts.)

trump to appoint a nazi willing to state that 1 is a higher number than 66.
This sounds very much not good:

For the first half of the year, NYC added under 1,000 jobs. Same period last year was 66,000.

Nice, convincing argument of the moral imperative for "as much as possible and as long as possible" impeachment efforts. As you pointed out, some say that impeachment is a political loser. Want to know what a political loser looks like? It’s any course of action that gets your party 20% approval!
Say we're working at the top of a tall building. If I burst into your office and say "the building is on fire!" you'll be thinking of evacuation, of raising the alarm, calling the fire department—and understandably so. A building on fire is very bad news. www.the-reframe.com/impeachment-...

Consider yourselves invited to read this short and extremely kind thread about my book
In the interest of sharing good things: I just finished "It All Felt Impossible" by @tmcallister.bsky.social, and it is tremendous. Honest, incredibly funny, with a deep self-examination that never devolves into navel-gazing. It has two things that I generally find when I'm loving a book: (1/5)

That Auschwitz-gate-posing Nazi fuck, like many conservative men, simultaneously looks 18 and 283 yrs old. Either a child in an uncle's suit preternaturally shriveled by evil or a man preserved beyond reckoning by an ancient token that stretches his soul like like butter scraped over too much bread.

There appear to be two and only two mainstream opinion pieces now: 1) why the natural disgust and anger you feel is counterproductive and the obvious atrocity that elicited that reaction is complicated; 2) Nazi parents who want to liquidate your child for existing have several valid concerns, too
