Great Labor Day pack from @dcombes.bsky.social Follow and share, because defending democracy doesn't get a day off Thanks DMC!
AW, what a beauty.
Wimpy GOP
The most precious wealth in life is time, so donβt dwell on past mistakes, seize present opportunities and create your own glory.
The United States of America has had 47 Presidents. Only 1 got us added to The Human Rights Watch List. Wowβ¦. All this winning!
I enjoy meeting new friends, especially those who share similar perspectives and values ββwith me. I believe meaningful connections often come from having common ground, yet I also appreciate learning from different viewpoints

Somerville's overnight low was 61Β°F, and it was 69Β°F at the 9 AM peak of the morning commute. The forecast calls for a dry day with a partly cloudy start and cloudy conditions after 2 PM, and a high of 75Β°F. An ENE 11 MPH breeze will keep coastal areas cooler. weather.com/weather/toda...
9/1/25 Status: I'm fine, and I hope you are, too. Happy Labor Day. Enjoy American Chess Day and Ginger Cat Appreciation Day today.
#About Hard Work Your current seriousness determines your future.
While they are in the minority, House Democrats can't do much to expose Trump's pedophilia, but they can force the GOP to vote for a cover-up of Dear Leader's crimes.
Hmm
Somerville's overnight low was 59Β°F, and we warmed to 62Β°F for the 8 AM church service attendees. We're expecting bright, sunny skies with a high of 76Β°F, but an MPH ENE wind off the ocean will mean cooler temperatures for east-facing beaches. weather.com/weather/toda...

βILLEGALSβ MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. Heβs a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
On a serious note, he looks like shit. Why is he so swollen?

NEVER, IN THE ANNALS OF HISTORY.
Starbucks CEO pay: $96 MILLION Starbucks worker pay: $15,000 Coca-Cola CEO pay: $28 MILLION Coca-Cola worker pay: $14,000 CEOs used to make like 20x the average worker. In 2024, the average CEO earned 632x more. The system is rigged.

You idiots voted for the Republican Party nominee but you believe the federal government is corrupt. Donald Trump and his cult worshipers stand for nothing.
The night is gentle, the sweat is hot, and every step brings you closer to a better version of yourself.
I wish I'd been wrong. But because Trump is following a classic authoritarian playbook, itβs up to state and local governments to push back on this tyranny while itβs still possible.
Whew! Sen. Susan Collins should be βvery concernedβ She showed up as the main guest at a ribbon-cutting in Searsport, Maine. It backfired. The crowd was not happy to have her: βShame. Shame. Shame.β
As much as I dislike Trump, I still have to call a foul when I see it. This image is a fake. A Google image search will show numerous posts of this exact image of the two men with no videotapes pasted in front of them.

Somerville's overnight low was 64Β°F, and we hit 66Β°F at the 9:00 AM peak of the commute. We'll be mostly cloudy with showers and thunderstorms. Winds are out of the SSE at 17 MPH, and a front will push through Boston at around 1:15 PM, increasing the risk of rain. weather.com/weather/toda...

Listen to medical professions not Catturd. Pass it on.
This will be unsurprising and disappointing to many but it is the reality of our present times. Hitler was able to hire thugs to terrorize citizens & Trump is doing the same now. Same tactics, different tyrant #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Somerville's overnight low was 58Β°F, and we warmed to 67Β°F by the 9 AM peak of the morning commute. It's breezy with a west wind of 12 MPH gusting to 20 MPH. We expect a high of 77Β°F and dry, with a partly cloudy morning and gathering clouds this afternoon. weather.com/weather/toda...

REALLY AMERICAN Governor Greg Abbott say Democrats are to blame for Texas' crumbling economy, high crime, and crumbling schools. But Texas' governor, attorney general, House majority, Senate majority, and ENTIRE state Supreme Court is Republican. So...? π€

Andrew McCabe casts doubt on Ghislaine Maxwellβs interview with DOJ: βItβs so suspicious. When you listen to the tapes, you get the sense that Ghislaine Maxwell went into that room knowing what information she had to deliverβ¦to get some sort of benefit that she is pursuing from the administration.β
The State of Illinois at this time has received no requests or outreach from the federal government asking if we need assistance, and we have made no requests for federal intervention.

Every couple of days it stops me dead in my tracks and knocks the breath out of me to realize how bad things are gonna get for how many people in how many ways, and how it is all down to the petty insane whims of one of the worst people America has ever produced.
Kamala was right about everything. If you sat on the sidelines for the 2024 election because you didnβt feel Kamala was the PERFECT candidate, you really fucked everything up.
