I’m an attorney, but not your attorney

Laughing makes the days better, give it a try.

People saying “but I’m not one of the bad ones” need to consider the fact that they don’t get to make that decision. Their actions each day inform everyone else of the decision. You can’t just say you’re not a “bad one”; you have to prove it every single day

And a vote for Trump was not proving it

Just a reminder that Musk couldn’t get a top level security clearance. And he was under investigation for violating the terms of the clearance he did have. Now he has your Social Security number, your tax returns, and is unilaterally deciding who the government does and does not pay.

Reading and really enjoying “Reagan” by @maxboot.bsky.social . The parallels between Reagan’s paranoia, conspiracy mongering, and desires to further his base’s most conservative feelings at all costs and what’s going on with the Trump/MAGA movement are stunning. Highly recommend this biography.

Swifties of Blue Sky, what say you about this? Fascinating technological breakdown of the almost identical matching/tracking of Taylor over two different shows.

We need a total and complete shutdown of Taylor Swift until we can figure out what the hell is going on 🎧

Strong recommendation to read this.

“It’s less about what Democrats have been doing wrong; and more about what Republicans have been doing right”

I’ve been thinking this too, for a long time. Maybe saying “fuck it, we do whatever we want” is a better strategy than “we must work across the aisle” 🤷🏻‍♂️

So that election, huh?

You're no doubt seeing lots of sign up for this / GIVE TO THIS / help us stop messages.

Reminder: don't give money unless you know where it is going. There are people who are just trying to cash in on your rage / grief / despair / desire to help. (1/10)
