Just shut up, NYT. Just shut the hell up.
BREAKING: Gov. JB Pritzker says the Trump administration has sent the Texas National Guard to Great Lakes Naval Base outside Chicago, awaiting orders to deploy to Chicago. Trump administration officials will target Mexican Independence Day (Sept. 16) celebrations. @wttw.bsky.social
Trump politicizing law enforcement in Baltimore does nothing to improve public safety. We've boosted the number of FBI, DEA and ATF agents in Baltimore and always welcome more support in coordination with local law enforcement. Trump’s bloviating and theatrics are a distraction. Full statement:
Almost...I dare him to buy Good Vibrations. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_Vi...
I'm so bummed they bought One Medical, where I've been a patient for 10 years+. I have the best doctor who I refuse to quit since it took me ages to find her. I bring her flowers and we laugh our butts off during my appointments, and she gives most excellent care.
Nothing made me happier than canceling the Washington Post, Amazon Prime, and pissing on the portals of Whole Foods. Keep going, everyone. Billionaires have to go.
Lo mas grande de asshats.
This makes me cry. So low. So very low. What pitiful people these folks all are. Cowards with showmanship.
Also, get some weight training.
GAH, beauty galore.
With everything! I feel the same way about rocks. And of course, birds are telling everyone the news all the time.
Yes yes, I often stop at trees and put my hand on them and ask them to tell me just one story Of all the stories they know
I’m so thankful and proud of my companions at Jewish voice for peace for putting their bodies on the line and saying stop bolstering Israel’s genocide. That our California senators are not voting against it is horrifying
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 America First!
I’ve had all my personal info stolen repeatedly. My mortgage company was first, and that lead to identity theft. Now protected by … TransUnion!
@support.bsky.team why don’t I see the video? This is constant for me.
Stay left and fight.
That's been going on since people came undocumented, with or without ICE. ICE makes it worse, though.
@support.bsky.team why don’t I see the videos and images from posts?
Why don’t I see the picture? @supportbluesky.bsky.social
"Splash damage" - 😂
I am sounding the alarm on the real crisis we face today. Donald Trump’s overreach is what our founders warned against – it is unprecedented, unwarranted, and un-American. There’s no emergency here that calls for military intervention.
I can't imagine anyone respecting that institution again.
Israeli attack on Gaza hospital kills 20, including journalists and medics. Israel struck Nasser Hospital twice within minutes of each other, also killing a first responder. Israel said it hit the hospital’s area but didn’t say what was targeted. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...
This administration is as faithful to the rule of law as Trump has been to his wives.
So this post magically made all the images appear. That is even crazier.
Zohran Mamdani's campaign is making politics seem fun, worthwhile and inclusive. No wonder the Democratic Party is rejecting him like a foreign organism.
Oh, this is how I got kicked off BS for a day, encouraging this evil asshat not to make it through the day. There I still said it, but in a way BS won't notice.

Just a reminder. Fight like hell right now.
Excellent perspective and road for resistance.
WTH? I often cannot see the images or videos attached to posts and I don’t know why. Anyone have a thought? #bluesky #userissue
I sure as shit hope so. We don’t have enough water in the world to supply this bubble.
Since Moki died, Rascal has been a mess. So, while I am myself not quite ready, I'm on the hunt for a blue-eyed border collie/mcnab/aussie/heeler mix - smart, big personality, goofy, ready to play and hike! Around the #SFBay area #adoption #dog #playmate
Orbweaver! Love them!
Oh, all those poor Etsy sellers with all that alligator Alley merchandise…I hope they run into financial ruin.
This is a beautiful statement about AI writing.
I see on Bluesky we can be happy if they died but not happy about wanting them to die.
Yeah, and we should be able to walk down those streets without unmarked cars full of goons hiding their faces chasing us down, knocking us down, and dragging us off to be disappeared into a concentration camp.

It's not every day that you can slowly chase a porcupine in Maine up a tree, with the porcupine raising its quills in defense. But that day came for me! #Mammals #Maine
You can thank AI.
Clueless.
Starbucks CEO made $95M last year. The median worker made $14K. That’s a gap of 6,666 to 1. This isn’t capitalism rewarding risk, it’s extraction on autopilot. Every empire ends with elites hollowing out the core. You’re watching it.
This country has totally lost its humor. Hyper-PCness killed everything on the battlefield of fun.
They don't have a budget five times. The size of any other governmental department for illegal immigrants, believe me. They are already picking up citizens, and no one should think that they are not themselves in danger.
Texas Democratic women have returned to the Capitol tonight, tearing up their ‘permission slips’ in protest. They plan to hold a ‘slumber party’ inside to stand in solidarity with State Rep. Nicole Collier, who has been confined for over 24 hours.
Wetland plants are still flowering, immune from the effects of the current drought. The complex blooms of Yellow-Water-lily and sprays of Flowering-rush emerge from the River Nene, while Purple Loosestrife and Orange Balsam clash tastelessly on the margin. #wildflowerhour @bsbibotany.bsky.social
The hero of the Jan. 6 war.
Yes, if folks aren't even willing to give up Amazon Prime to boycott one of the billionaire Trump support team, how are they going to do all the very steely things that are necessary now? I'm deeply, deeply worried.
Nice “howahyu” from “Bahston” to Bondi.
I so agree. I lost my several communities I had on Twitter- California water, california naturalists.
Well, this is finally a step in the right direction.
Keep going, protesters. Keep going.
Yup. AI is one of the new Overlord Hogs.
Awe strikes me 100 times a day.
Oh boy, thanks all you lazy people. If energy costs are going up, so is wate. AI, the great unneeded hog. #energy #water
Hope it passes quickly.
Gaza "IDF fighters continue to demolish and destroy houses in the area in central Khan Yunis; under ongoing artillery bombardment and intensive air force flights."
Oh I just can’t wait to stop sending them arms. I assume he has everything he needs to annihilate Gaza already but the entire globe now knows the heart of Israel…and the United States
Hanging with some of the nephews and nieces in Boston. #family #peningo
That makes him presidential material!
A searchable database of California law enforcement use of force and misconduct records - built by UC Berkeley & Stanford and being published by @latimes.com @sfchronicle.com @kqednews.kqed.org @calmatters.org - is now available to the public: www.latimes.com/california/s...
No, its because I see my students' brains/capacities rotting in real time because of the uncritical use and universalization of gAI. I'm angry about its environmental, ethical and moral implications, I'm not threatened by gAI, but I get why tech people make this argument, you have to, I suppose
“Mommy, mommy, make it stop.”
Opening=spending
Just talked About this with my Uber driver on the way to SFO. Yeah because we’re opening a lot of money now whether you go to Costco or you go to Berkeley Bowl
Kennedy Curse Sure Taking Its Sweet Time With RFK Jr.
Yes. I thought it would all be through starting a war and declaring martial law so they didn’t have to be voting. But gerrymandering is a much more reliable fix for them

Wuuuuut? I happen to be going to Boston this weekend! Wish I were going to be at this specific event to meet you!

Fuck off, Trump. We consider race in everything. So do you.
By accident, I ended up super close when they moved from the main stage to the small stage, Reznor and Co. cruising by me 2' away, in Oakland last night. You are forever one of my favorite musical delights, #NIIN #concert #JoshFreese #reznor #killmewithmusic
Indivisible And the whole slew of other organizations are working on that right now
BREAKING: At least 41 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza since dawn, including 20 aid seekers, sources at Gaza hospitals told Al Jazeera. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/pnykac
We are going to need to build up enough people to do general strikes. I think the only thing we can do is just shut things down like the Texas Democrats. We just have to say we won’t participate anymore
I don’t really understand this tendency to ignore what’s coming. It literally got me to leave the democratic party recently. I got tired of yelling fire fire fire and have everybody tell me I’m being overreactive well their coats are going up in flames
At @rollingstone.com, @elizabeth-warren.bsky.social lays out the stakes of our election. "It turns out there are some billionaires and Wall Street CEOs who can’t stand the idea of a mayor who wants them to pay their fair share to create a city that everyone can afford."
“I’m not racist, you are.”
We've had the coldest, foggiest summer in 50 years here in the SF East Bay. As everywhere else in the country gets warmer, we are going Arctic.
Thanks so much. I know what you mean. I have a second dog, Rascal, who is a sweet, but hyperactive and demanding dog that is in her own world. xoxoxoxoxo
My girl Moki just got back home. I couldn’t miss this doggie more. Every minute every day
Truth
That's a great idea. Thanks.
It’s fine. Spotify completely rips off artist so it’s time for all of us to get off Spotify anyway. It’s just another good reason to do it. Let them crash and burn
One of the best things for Dem prospects is a radical shift in leadership. Like maybe the kind that leads.
These two spiders live on the window in front of my desk in Alameda, CA. The smaller spider (likely a false noble widow) is always chasing the larger jumping spider (maybe Mexigonus minutus) around, trying to keep it from looting the web. Such a little drama queen. #spiders #frenz
I think one of my favorite things in life now is knowing individuals of any other species and follwoing their lives over time. Like this little jumper on one of my front yard plants I get to see every once in a while.
Love our Maryland delegation for standing up tp ICE
Great, see you then. I know the blue heron living at the marina!
I've walked by this plant for three years (since it was planted) and never before noticed the several lizards high up on the buckwheat buds, just waiting for some yellow-faced bumblebees to hover nearby. #reptiles #insects #nativeplants
September. We can meet for a little bird walk at aquatic park. I’m near 61st and San Pablo
85% of Gaza is on the brink of death due to starvation. Israel could let aid in at any moment. And some people (like these men tried to do with me on Friday) are still trying to justify this atrocity. There is no justification. This could stop at any moment. End the blockade now.
