Awesome everyone! I set a modest goal of $150 and you helped me raise that!

Hey! Thanks to folks who donated already! Very cool of you to support this cause.
Thank you for doing this important work. I survived a suicide attempt in 2008, got sober in 2010 and life is good. There is hope and help available. You're awesome! I gave $50 to this tremendous cause. If I weren't a broke drummer I'd give more!
the clapper
I'm glad someone's saying it

Despite its location two blocks from the busy H St corridor, this area of K - nestled between NoMa and Union Station metros - is a largely residential area, with long-term residents who know each other. This is a startling display.
One great thing about living in New Orleans is the neighborhood kid standing outside of his house practicing his tuba playing for his high school band.
Oh, this is fabulous. Gotta show my wife!!
hahahahahahahahaha!!!! My wife has a thing for jazz tuba after hearing an obscure Coltrane record. I'll admit to a slight comedic value, but tuba is killer. I'm a full-time drummer, so tuba and I have a special rapport
where's the OMGthatistotallymylife button I own a reciprocating saw, soldering iron, 4 impact drivers, a torch, an air compressor and multiple plumbing and electrical tools, all from lack of "guys" hmmmm, no first aid kit or fire extinguisher...i need a guy
yes, but extremely high-value! Aaaaaaaand you play tuba, which is a gift to humanity. Everyone should have a tuba guy, darnit
when he shows up on tuesday with a jaw implant itâs going to be so annoying that we have to pretend itâs natural
i went to hell, nothing but Styx records and Tab i came back, prob shoulda stayed

Threatens to shoot a black man in the head.
the reason this discourse will never end is because it is completely untethered from any kind of evidentiary standard. as long as there is a 19-year-old barista somewhere saying âcultural appropriation,â guys like nichols will complain that âdemocratsâ use alienating language.
well she did not consider pedophilia inappropriate so what does this even mean
A half dozen armed goons brutally attacked a man FOR EATING IN PUBLIC?
Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein could not have sold women and girls for sex without wealthy men buying women and girls for sex. I feel like more people should mention that.
An utter disgrace to the country and the profession.
You guys. The Lisa Cook story isnât about her mortgages. Please please please stop being so credulous.
Dementia Don says he solved the war between "Aberbaijan" and "Albania" (Think that's supposed to be Azerbaijan and Armenia....)
The tone of this video is completely wild. It's filmed like a high school media class project. It looks like it too; the presentation and graphics are amateurish. And yet it's chilling, because she's a real government spokesperson dismissing reports of abuses in detention with finger quotes.
dunno man, that's kinda Up With People, but I trust you
I need the eggheads to work out some sort of "Snobbery Index" that weighs the pleasure you gain from becoming, say, a coffee snob against the pain you'll feel having to drink a gas station cup. This formula will help me determine if it's worth getting into natural wine
âTis Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at allâ
The whole power structure from Trump and Noem on down that isnât firing this Nazi is also responsible. The US newspapers and tv stations that are treating it as a nonstory are responsible too.
no wonder it's not working, i thought they said ovaltine been trying to stand "like that"
This is CNN, a channel I really enjoy when I'm in the US. I wonder if American journalists are aware of how completely insane they look to the rest of the world. How utterly detached their narrative is from everyone else's. edition.cnn.com/2025/08/19/p...
social media is rage bait with a web address
Newâ Nazis with giant swastika flags marched in downtown Indianapolis on Saturday with two police escorts. They shouted âwhite powerâ and said to the woman who took this video (reshared here with her permission) âfuck you, n***** bitch.â Police did not intervene. I cannot find local news coverage.
NEW: National Guard troops deployed to DC by President Trump are now preparing to carry weapons. It's a significant shiftâdefense officials emphasized two days ago that troops would not be armed or have weapons in their vehicles.
While masked agents were violently attacking a delivery worker this morning, bystanders repeatedly asked to see their badge numbers but they refused. Bystander: You guys are ruining this country, you know that, right? Agent: Liberals already ruined it.
It really bothers me that we're not talking about how the GOP cut DC's funding before invading.
The Confederacy has finally occupied DC.
Grossly irresponsible of the Times to have this ludicrous credulous spin as the top story the morning after a president who rules by fiat proclaims a totally specious emergency to militarize the capital - an editorial insult to our intelligence and our democracy.
"Well, the Nazis earned France on the battlefield, so who are we to step in here, you know?" - Trump's approach to Russia-Ukraine. @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social joins @timmiller.bsky.social in the latest Bulwark Podcast:
The worst single-day crime spree in modern Washington history, of course, took place on Jan. 6, 2021. Trump issued no order to the National Guard to intervene -- Mike Pence did -- and later pardoned the perpetrators.
"dismantle the administrative state" they are doing the thing
eventually my brain will lose the ability to fold over on itself when i see stories like this. like a planck length but in terms of density. could be fun
Iâll never get over the fact that the Vice President follows an account named after Bobby Fischer, whose profile quotes TS Eliot - two men united by one notable belief - and apparently no one in media or politics has ever felt it even merits a comment
BDTS is so clutch
your posts often either make me think of judas priest or mother goose i'm not sure why but i'll keep coming back
everyone bats simultaneously
oh man, this puts everybody wang chunging to shame
front or back?
A Democratic mayoral candidate calls for a rent freeze and free buses, and mainstream Democrats think it will doom the party in perpetuity. A Republican Cabinet secretary posts a video calling for women's suffrage to be repealed and his entire party says, "Yeah, and?"
Golden phallus fills your eyes
Red Sea fantasy unlocked
100% correct. I ditched NYT years ago, glad I did.
This story is a result of NYT swallowing Trumpian propaganda whole. Some MAGA releases a "statement" and NYT runs with it, despite Harvard explaining it's simply not true I mean sure, they'll probably capitulate eventually, but this story was based on pure crap
Stop normalizing, NY Times! Trump and his lackeys don't have "beliefs" about cutting healthcare. They are trying to burn the system to the ground. Cruelty is the point. They "believe" in doing whatever they can to destroy the government social safety net. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/01/h...
UmâŚ.
OMG what a sweet thing, and gorgeous photos.
How soon are rhinoplasty, bronzer and Botox going to be mandatory so we all have the MAGA look? Maybe they can subsidize the treatments with ICE money
If you're using AI to write essays, eulogies, a text to your wife, I do think less of you as a person. Ceding your mental and creative abilities to a machine is an embarrassing thing and people should be ashamed to admit doing it in public.
![[quoting a tweet by fractalcounty that reads, âtoday I learned that there are actual people irl who get genuinely upset if they catch you using chatgpt. like they view it as a serious moral failing in certain circlesâ]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hppum4l25hcczzffastsicpq/bafkreihjvnz2ttxl7z4a2b3a4kylubobgvqxmjhwz6yuetuztzoc4g2s4y@jpeg "Click to view full size")
Who has what on Graham? SOMEONE has SOMETHING. He's not an idiot. The last decade of bizarro behavior makes me think there's a video and it's bad

They'll probably install Bayreuth-style uncomfortable seating and serve tallow and raw milk at the concessions
yeah but now they can put a grindr on their summer vacation instead of a damper
I can taste the buttered cod with breadcrumbs yummmmm
It can be hard to keep our chins up, eh? What a sad mess we are in! Let's buoy each other with love and care!
Donkey Kong, Donkey Dong
I'll be happy if even one of these scumbags ends up in front of The Hague
I don't assume anything. It's impossible to tell anymore what stories have staying power. We're so inured to fascism's new horrors six months in that I cannot imagine what we'll be talking about in December.
I'm waiting for the next "are we in a Constitutional crisis yet?" article
I completely fell apart in January. Long story, but I re-dedicated myself to music and pulled myself out of the dumps. I've been a professional musician since I was 18, and I'm practicing 5-7 hours/day now, just to stick it to the fascists. Time to write my congresspeople and go to rehearsal!
Thank you for the kind words. I think we found something generic that will work! I'll pay $15 gladly!
yes, it is. My doc is trying to find something else that's on the formulary, but for various reasons it's complicated. Aaaaargh, it's madness! i found out today that they would only cover it for 6 months, even though I have to take it for a year sigh
I had to leave my blood thinner at the pharmacy yesterday bc it increased by $100 suddenly Is this the freedom we were told about
I had a couple of heart procedures in the last two years that require me to take a blood thinner twice daily. I just left it at the pharmacy because it went up $100 this month. I guess I'll hit the baby aspirin harder and hope for the best. Can't afford $120/month! My copays are already $300/mo
I'm a professional drummer and I'm almost 55. Since I don't sit in a chair and lie for a living, I actually work. Hard. Fuck this little piss ant. When his career evaporates after the fever breaks he can waste the rest of his life in a RW think tank and die staring hatefully at his screen at 70.
