California is proposing to hold a special election on November 4th to give voters the power to fight back against Donald Trump’s tyranny. We will not sit back while Trump and his Republican lapdogs in Texas attempt to rig the next election.

It's funny how little drama there is here in bluesky over the Taylor Lorenz Wired piece outing a bunch of lib influencers as paid shills. Meanwhile, on Twitter and threads, those creators are completely losing their minds and going after Taylor in absurd and deeply personal ways.

I suspect that democrats are adjusting to the news. The implications are much deeper than they appear. The dilemma is much larger. Do we use similar tactics to repubs? Are they repubs posing as democrats using more dirty tactics? Is the party falling apart from within? Is it a Russian operation?

Trump says museums focus too much on the “negative aspects” of American history, like “how bad slavery was.” And plans to purge cultural institutions. But be clear: he’s not talking about alternately uplifting Black inventors, builders, and leaders we were never taught about…

It's not about the trash and the mulch. It's about the military presence becoming normalized. While the soldiers don't realize it and are embarrassed the public laughs about it. It's not really funny at all.

Well good for you. But just realize that you don't need religion to be a good person. I'll go so far as saying that religion makes good people do bad things. Is there something that you judge another for simply because your religion requires it? Like gay marriage or stem-cell research?

Realism is not doomerism. Doomerism is: “We’re all gonna die, Earth will die, nothing matters” etc. Realism is: “Even given maximum mitigation measures, we’re in for very rapid social, political, and ecological change, and we need to mentally prepare for it.” They are not the same.
