I've said it before, and I will say it again.
We need courageous leaders that put working families at the center of all they do.
8 democrats caving to empty promises is an indefensible leadership failure
For the sake of our country, Schumer needs to resign.

Block and move on. Don’t engage with filthy little trolls who have no game. Let them wallow in their squalor and they’ll get bored and leave back to their Nazi bar.
By my count: Of the 15 Departments of the US Government, 13 launched new BlueSky accounts tonight (all but Justice and HUD), and all 13 have posted explicitly partisan political posts blaming Democrats and/or Chuck Schumer for the government shutdown.

You gotta just block these accounts without interacting. They're doing this the night before No Kings so they can selectively grab quote posts and replies about how nasty people are being. It's extremely transparent. Just block and move on.
Yes, it does look like the government accounts joining Bluesky are real, including Homeland Security and the White House. They're tweeting about it on X.

US Government accounts have arrived on Bluesky.
Block on sight.
Protect your digital space.
Be aware that the DHS account in particular is known to quote dunk on regular people to encourage their followers to harass them.
The detach quote function will come in very handy here…

Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance.
Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn.

AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance

Nah man a big part of why the UB stuff makes me sad is cause I know it's extremely popular so they're going to keep doing it despite it making the parts of the game I deeply care about worse. Like I know a bunch of people are going to buy the 6th marvel set but that doesn't make my FNM fire.
Hearing the conversations around the con, I think heavily enfranchised online folks significantly overestimate how much their opinions on Universes Beyond are shared by the wider player base.
This is not a value judgment of any opinion in particular: just being reminded of that myself, too.

The fact that his attempt to try and take Jimmy Kimmel off the air crumbled into dust the moment people started speaking with their wallets should tell you how weak he is. Everything Trump is doing right now is an attempt to soothe his wounded ego while trying to make people not talk about Epstein
I think there's an additional presumption about Trump here, that he's in some sense deeply/authentically perceived as a "strong" leader and it's perilous to challenge *that* notion. But it's his own creation. There's no reason to accept it as baked into the background conditions of our politics.

Be sure you take a moment today to remember Charlie Kirk for exactly who he was.
Charlie Kirk Sept 27 2024: "Just so we're clear, the Haitians that are in Huntsville that are raping your women and hunting you down at night - it's only gonna get worse - unless Donald Trump wins
There will be hundreds of thousands of Haitians brought into Alabama and they will become your masters"

The GOP is *choosing* to create this kind of societal environment. They could stop it at any time. They have agency as well.
