Let's see...who would know exactly how much nuke-level damage is lurking in the Epstein Files.

But the only time they REALLY want to limit power is when the other parties are/is in power. Legislators need to understand that limiting power is vital in any healthy democracy.

And that's good, but that tension always needs to be there and if not the most power needs to rest with the folks it's easiest to get rid of.

Isn't that going to slowly, with other organisations and initiatives concentrate more power in the executive? Just Gubernatorial as opposed to Presidential? Legislatures need to empower themselves. Right now, Cal's executive seems to share our interests somewhat. What happens when he doesn't?

Just cut Don Jr off and their profits would fall precipitously.

I appreciate everyone's anger, but I've seen this foul post at least 20 x from folks saying, "Isn't this foul?"

Is this an actual surprise? Why are we distributing this narcissist monster's posts?

Is anyone not aware he's a horrible person?

And yet this tweet is incredibly well distributed. Without Bluesky posts I would never have seen this foul and sickening post. No alt text so no way to avoid it, making sure that even people who don't want trump on their feed can't avoid it.

So...thanks, I guess.

This is somewhat disingenuous from folks that only broke with Republicans after Bush, despite a long history of racism, Christian nationalism, and military excursions for oil.

Trump is the ultimate fulfilment of what Americans call Conservatism, not some aberration.

Thanks for the daily allowance of bamboozler garbage.

For a second I was worried I was going to have to poison my intellect with something that made sense.

This idea of assimilation, becoming unrecognizable in a vast grey expanse of humanity has always been really weird to me.

A tapestry, each vibrant part contributing to the beauty of diverse humans made strong by inter-reliance is better, but antithetical to the way many white Americans see America.

He's put so much work into just being excellent in so many different areas that people just feel good when he shows up.

It's like you believe you can be your best self, because you feel that he already sees it in you.

Hell, I feel that way and I'm in Northern Canada and have never met him.

When I was a kid in the 70s "the cure for cancer" was like the holy grail of popular culture's conception of the pinnacle of modern medicine.

An actual magic potion that keeps you from getting cancer and these evil people don't want any one else to have them (you know they'll take em though)

This is why I feel I should take over from CEOs.

I could kill 31 billion dollars for way cheaper than they're paying Ellison to kill it.

I mean, we say anti-vax political goals but what we actually mean is turning vulnerable people into dead people.

Individuals who champion this bs know better, choose to do otherwise, and people die because of it.

We need to call it what that is. Murder for power.

As much as I'd love to hear more User Boxonumbers, men need to stop raping and beating people seems pretty clear cut to me.

Good luck at the server farm.

"Bishops order Diocesan Priests to stop teaching about Jesus."

Because, hey, They ain't got a shot at Cardinal with those pesky Jesus freaks making conservatives angry.

That is so much awesome sci-fi in one pic, animated as well.
