Gisteren nam de Tweede Kamer een motie aan om Antifa als terroristische organisatie aan te merken. Dit is een gevaarlijke stap: het opent de deur naar repressie tegen álle maatschappelijke bewegingen. Vandaag wordt Antifa gedemoniseerd, morgen misschien ook klimaatactivisten. [1/3]
I wondered why I hadn't heard from you

Checking in on this
Trump pushes to fire a top U.S. attorney for refusing to fabricate charges, pushes FCC to silence critics like Kimmel & The View, gets laughed out of court for his $15B NYT suit, and GOP drives toward a gov’t shutdown. Today's bulletin is vital reading:
Gupta: The impacts of this—H-1B visas—are going to show up once Trump is out of office. If fewer people are able to take those jobs, what happens? We’re just not going to have enough people to meet the demand for medical services.. And the irony here is it’ll probably impact red states more
Sorry to hear about you and your felines. Hoping for full recovery.
Wer Interesse an einer konstruktiven, deliberativen, demokratischen Debatte hat und wem hierfür journalistische Räume und Plattform zur Verfügung stehen, kann sie nutzbar machen und über Erkenntnisse mit jenen wenigen reden, die von Beginn an und seit bald 2 Jahren zum Thema arbeiten - Tag für Tag.
"Gas moves up through faults into a cavity under the permafrost that’s solid enough to prevent most of the gas from leaking into the atmosphere. When ⬆️ temps thaw permafrost, the seal is weakened...pressure inside the cavity increases as higher temperatures release gas trapped under the ice" =Blast
NEW: Mexico could displace ALL US gas imports for power generation, with solar and batteries ☀️ The country’s abundant sunshine means it can become a global solar superpower and boost its energy security at the same time:)

I wrote my own Charlie Kirk obituary, and about valuing truth over manners: www.thenation.com/article/poli...
“I’m dealing with some heavy stuff right now and I don’t know how much time I have left. But really, none of us do. So why not use that time to smile and laugh and talk about things that are positive?” Back From Broken is back! 😇 m.youtube.com/watch?v=EqDv...

19 years ago today, I tested positive for HIV. I was very sick and was hospitalized. My CD4 (T-cell) count was dangerously low and was considered borderline AIDS. Thanks to treatment, the virus now lies dormant. I’ve lost people I love to AIDS. I’m awfully grateful to be alive.

To the senate dems that voted for Charlie Kirk day, enjoy the ride in your Douche canoe down gofuckyourself river. You never cease to disappoint us you spineless cuntcakes
I am not afraid of these people. They aren't frightening. They're infuriating. They're contemptible. They're corrupt. They're evil. And PATHETIC. I'm not afraid. I'm fucking furious. My country is in the clammy grip of mediocre losers with delusions of entitlement. And I want them gone.
facts are only ever as good as the stories we tell about them. we need scholars across fields who work to mine these facts but, equally, we need scholars studying these stories & how they’re told & how to read them critically the English major is not dead. it just might save us.
“What we’re seeing is an unprecedented attempt to silence disfavored speech by the government,” said Brendan Nyhan, a political scientist at Dartmouth College. “Donald Trump is trying to dictate what Americans can say.”

Trump's been spewing shit at a prolific pace & exceeded his sewage limit the world over, not just at his country club in Scotland. boingboing.net/2025/09/18/t...

The decision whether or not to bear a child is central to a woman's life,to her wellbeing, dignity.It is a decision she must make for herself.When the government controls that decision for her,she is being treated as less than a full adult human responsible for her own choices. R. Bader Ginsburg 
@hannelore14089.bsky.social Will you live long enough to report the horrors of the Reich?
Thank you for your no confidence vote on my last motion😊🙏
I saw Colorado lady Dianne Reeves on Colorado music hall of fame shindig. I've seen Manhattan Transfer at Red Rocks. I've never seen big, big folk. I'm an old fogey. bacucco?

What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power. This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.
Didn't know you holding out on the avian wildlife.😁

Very much so.
I used X/Grok to translate this. I am wary of X on its shite. It'll probably takeover my laptop.

I'll have to hide my Antifa tendencies.
So disappointed with the visit to the UK - 🇬🇧 I assume Trump has more than Andrew grabbed by the p*ssy.
@puckbethy.bsky.social antifa is branded terrorist. It starts now.
They’ve effectively taken over the networks without a peep of protest. Jon Stewart: "We're the banana peel in the coal mine... When society is under threat, comedians are the ones who get sent away first".

Greek myth of the Titan Cronus, whom the Romans called Saturn, eating one of his children out of fear of a prophecy by Gaea that one of his children would overthrow him.
I'll get back to you.
Das Kind schwärmt, dass der Kartoffelbrei im Landschulheim genau so lecker geschmeckt habe wie der von ihrer Großmutter Handgestampfte und wir versuchen uns vorzustellen, wie sie das für die vielen Kinder machen und jedenfalls was Ihr für Silos gehalten habt, sind in Wirklichkeit Ultra-Thermomixe.
the Saturn solution. Thank you
By continually excusing gun violence, Kirk was both foolish & evil enough to endorse his own murder. The MAGA cult that worships him would be wise to keep that in mind before blaming all of human civilization for the consequences of Charlie's own wishes coming true.

I’ve been saying this for years - the Black Panther Party had the right idea. ARM YOURSELVES. They are HUNTING Black people.
I got some news today 😳 The store called to apologize for the poor communication. They offered to deliver and install the tank for me tomorrow at no extra cost 😭 I'm so happy. 😃

Les gens croient souvent que poser des questions est la norme. Et ils se sentent offensés s'ils ne trouvent pas de réponses.

I read that we’re watching the end of the social media era. The crippling toxicity of bots, and MAGA has made it intolerable. The alternative is a billion little gardens springing to life with real voices and community that can actually breathe. I can see myself building one of those gardens. 🌸🍃🌺🪻🌿
Don't mind me; I am old curmudgeon.

In response to a question from Senator Hassan, Dr. Monarez states that RFK Jr. became “very upset” when she told him she wouldn’t sign off on everything he wanted to her to in the absence of scientific evidence. He also disparaged the CDC and said that CDC employees are “horrible people”.
Queen Elizabeth II in her golden carriage with Donald Trump? Never happened. Never would. Some traditions are worth protecting." 👑🚫 Good morning, wonderful 🦋💙☕
this doesn't look like a normal distribution
Republicans often claim "guns aren't the problem, it's mental illness." Yes, mental health is a major problem in America — which is why we should fund programs to address it. But all countries deal with mental illness. Yet they don't suffer from the scourge of gun violence like the U.S.
Yes, release the Epstein files!!!
Let us know how they work for you!
Sounds decadent.

Every year, I pitch a Halloween story to tackle for @denverpost.com I’ve ghost hunted in a former gold mine, observed flesh-eating beetles do their thing, delved into Dia de Los Muertos, documented the rise of the giant yard skellies. What spooky CO thing should I do this year? 🎃 Let a ghoul know

"They're politicians, what are they supposed to do? Literally fight in the streets?" Unashamed to say this made me cry.
