Michelle Obama: Eat an apple! Eat some vegetables! Get some exercise! RFK Jr: Autistic people sit in the corner drooling because of vaccines! Let's ban all vaccines, bring measles back and have the survival of the fittest! American Media: Michelle Obama and RFK Jr. had the exact same agenda!
Absolutely. And I don’t care much for hockey either. 😅 I just like mascot hijinks. Colts are meh but Blue is awesome.
I don’t pay attention to the Phillies unless you count the Phanatic. 😜
Pass it on
Ah, well. 🤷♀️
Oh, no! I’m so sorry! 💔
Again, people complaining about "Dems not doing anything" and Dems keep doing things. Well done, @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social! You are appreciated!!!
If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.
Most interesting development from this incident? Rudy has a spine.
Report this account for harassment through replies & then mute/block.
I’d say he looks like shit but how would we know the difference from any other day?
Nah, it’s like cotton candy; someone shoved it all under the cap because he usually does his own hairstyling & was incapable after this. Note the orange pancake makeup is also missing.
When in doubt of one’s tone being read on social media correctly, always add a hashtag or put an asterisk & footnote.
We see it proven & have proof that it is proven but that doesn’t stop the people who deny it from gaslighting those of us who see & live the proof almost daily now. I think he was trying to be a bit flippant towards the gaslighters.
That’s a Stalin fanboy right there. His pfp is a pic of young Stalin.
Young Stalin as their pfp & a raised yellow fist emoji weren’t the first 2 clues? Instant mute & block.
Also: He’s a big MAGA guy. That no clue about lyrics & meanings comes with the territory anyway. (See: YMCA & Do You Hear The People Sing)
I looked him up. Alt metal musician who has gone solo to do country music. Criticized Christina Aguilera for forgetting the lyrics to the US National Anthem & then he sang them in 2014 & also forgot the lyrics. 😂
Pritzker is not wrong.
He changed his tune with Ariella when she suggested an idea for his job/show. I can only hope he credits her & she gets some compensation whether it boosts his ratings or not because it was an obvious “Ooh, this helps me!” & not an apology or sincere “I’ll do better because it’s the right thing”.
I seek out grits whenever I find myself in the South. It’s been years! That stuff is so comforting.
Yep, never. But they will cry about keeping things balanced when shitting on Democrats. 🙄
Me neither. But there are some stupid, ignorant people out there who don’t or want others to forget that fact. But you know that already. 😅
They are as much a melting pot as the US is when it comes to cuisine. Meanwhile, I looked up the origin of burnt ends & who started it: Arthur Bryant & Henry Perry in Kansas City, MO — 2 Black men. People need to know that.
I looked it up. Dude’s name is Joe Gruters. Basically, he’s a white dude who failed up through the GOP in FL & is a Trump loyalist. He got the position (unanimously elected) about a week ago when the previous guy, Michael Whatley, stepped down to run for a US Senate seat in NC in the Midterms.
Fun fact: the fried fish of fish & chips came from Sephardic Jews who settled in England, not the English themselves. 😉
Black ppl do not have the power to drop a single bomb anywhere on the planet. Hell, there are no nuclear weapons on the whole continent of Africa. Yet, for someone reason, we are constantly being barraged with demands to do more to help people who are being bombed by other folks. Why is that?
And, it shouldn't go unnoted that Judge Sparkle Sooknanan, who has done her job at all hours today over a holiday weekend, was one of the final Biden appointees confirmed to the bench. Each one of those lame-duck confirmations very much matter.
My goodness. That judge single handedly saved 76 children today. He’s been working on this shit since like 2am.
This Labor Day weekend, every American needs to think about the hardworking laborers who grow our food being tormented by our government! Did you know that 2/3 of US fruit/nuts & 1/3 of US veggies are from CA & ~76% of our farmworkers are undocumented? We rely on them! Let's have their backs!
Listen, @velshi.com, I don't hate you, or the work you're doing as a Journalist. A lot of times your shows have been very informative and I learned a lot. But to give "Schumer-Jeffries are the problem" any oxygen when we're facing actual Fascism from the White House isn't a good look.
I’m sincerely scared. It feels like nowhere is safe.
Please read every word of this. Her father’s testimony. Her mother’s. Her’s.
It's not an Israeli "claim." Hamas and its leadership are responsible for the Oct. 7 attack. Who exactly does @nytimes.com think orchestrated it? The tooth fairy?!
This. Y'all can't ever say enough about how he was "sleepy" tho. How he's why you couldn't vote for that lady. 😒
Why don’t women come forward??????? Little girls get raped and come forward with more balls than most men who don’t protect little girls in this fucking shithole maga white male country ..
Too many people are more interested in bashing than facts. Then they will complain if we lose. They don’t think they bear any responsibility to inform themselves or other people of reality or to help democrats get the power at midterms they falsely think we already have.
Black ppl have fought literally for everyone. Don't call yourself my ally if you're not active, period. Quit acting like you're doing Black folks a fucking favor.
He’s acting like how plantation owners panicked about a Nat Turner rebellion coming to his door.
Breaking: Water is wet.
To amplify all the fighters. Do what you do with the banned book club. Have a segment where you amplify one democrat a week who is doing it right. Choose people no one else is talking about. You have the power to do that. 8/
Jesus fucking christ. The Trump administration tried to send a bunch of children to Guatemala at 3 am and justified it by saying that the kids just wanted to return to their parents in Guatemala, but the kids actually told the court that they are afraid of being sent back to Guatemala.
Just saw a clip on ABC news that showed a small Guatemalan child being led to a plane for deportation with her ankles shackled. This country has lost its soul.
Ok now we’re talking.
Yappy Barkday, Bear!
Done!
Report this account Impersonating the former Labor Secretary…
Socialist Mamdani fanboy. 😒
Got it.
He’s getting into it with Jaime Harrison bsky.app/profile/jaim...
I don’t know anything about the guy except that he worked for Al Jazeera America when it started & it only lasted 3 years. 🤷♀️
Sometimes things really are simple. Using that slur to talk about Jews is Jew hate. No if, ands, or buts.
I'm glad I missed most of the discussion about this but yes, if you are even indirectly using the word "kike", you are doing antisemitism, there is nothing complicated or nuanced to talk about.
Yes to everything except the secretly Republican thing. She won’t directly support the GOP but there’s a possibility that she could end up doing that not-voting-at-all thing that helps the GOP because some think Dem bashing is helping (when it’s not).
Is it a thing about making it their whole personality & livelihood? I mean, the whole thing stops when rights, etc. are gained, yeah? Who to be mad at if the Dems aren’t an enemy to them, too? It’s the same tactics as right wingers — fear, mis/disinfo — & they need it to keep going, too?
2) very on-line brain poisoning where you're more valid and more important to center if you're more oppressed, so if again there's hope and progress toward trans rights she loses very on-line points, so Dems have to be about to betray everything they've done for trans rights!
I don't think she's Republican, but I think two things 1) if trans people like Sarah McBride are successful very on-line trans influencers (like her) will lose power, audience, money, so everyone has be depressed so they stay on the internet all say making her money
We are not fighting "oligarchy." We are fighting White Supremacy.
The media could do a huge story on how the trump administration was just stopped from doing the same thing they got in trouble for multiple times by deporting 600 children without any due process. This story could even move the needle. They could do this. If they wanted to.
@ariellaelm.bsky.social is telling us daily what Dems are doing. Legacy media @velshi.com undoes Dems with one fckng post. NINETY MILLION eligible voters stayed home in 2024. Velshi is assisting Dem disinterest with a huge following. Ariella is fighting hard for Dem good news independently.
All of the above? 🤷♀️ Plus, Trump knows how presidential elections favor the incumbent during times of war & he will do anything to stay in power. So, if he can’t stop elections from happening, he’ll do what he can to push it in his favor like he is with redistricting & voter suppression l.
Pablo & Juju go nuts when the lawn is being mowed or when neighbors are mowing their lawns, barking at the windows & stuff. If I’m vacuuming, they scurry to somewhere else in the house. That’s fear.
Hi Barbie!!!
Every conspiracy and conspiratorial thinker gets to Jews eventually.
She accused a bunch of Progressive Jews (including Jews of color) of being "Fascists" because they "refused to renounce Zionism, a Fascist ideology." Which is probably news to a lot of Lefty Jews over 55, including Bernie. It's got its own issues, like ay national identity, but "Fascism" it ain't.
the blanked out word is a hell of a lot worse than if it were just “Jews” fwiw
Ok is she too careless to realize that the blanked out word here is ”Jews” or is she fully over the edge?
Yeah, it’s etiquette to put “inspired by” or credit to the original. He understands fan art as other things he has posted acknowledgment Being in Finland won’t stop Hasbro or whoever owns the copyright from sending a C&D or worse if he pursues making what he drew a legit entity of his own to market.
Raggedy Ann in a Minnie Mouse dress & body, no less! If you separate the head from the body, tell me that isn’t a muted Minnie Mouse skin color, too. He stopped before adding white gloves & probably says it’s a black turtleneck under the dress. 😒
That’s some good caricature work! WTF
Relatable, but I hope you’re also fighting it. 🫂 I’m more tired of that gonif living. 😒
you’re welcome everyone
Last year was an absurd amount of people looking at the prospect of Trump's campaign hinting at a great many of these things, groups like the disabled and other minority groups saying "hey, this looks and sounds like fascism" and being told they were hysterical.
This whole thing is great but the highlighted bit made me laugh out loud. 😂 Marlon on Snoop:
Awww, poor guy. 😂 As for Kevin, I don’t think anyone knows where he came from but no one minds as long as he isn’t aggressive. The FPD has to post on FB & Instagram that they’re aware of him & he’s cool.
When a hawk landed in our backyard with a freshly killed bird & sat there for almost a whole hour it was very National Geographic-y for me. We have also gotten mallards. They like our one neighbor’s pool & our birdseed. 😅
There’s another wandering peacock in central Indiana?? 😂😂 [*insert Doofenshmirtz nickel meme here*]
I don’t know why people get my married last name wrong. They hear an H in the front when I very purposely sound as nasal as possible to get that stand alone vowel sound out clearly.
This doesn’t surprise me. There are people on Nextdoor who find parakeets & other small pet birds whose owners thought nothing of letting their feathered friends hang out in their backyard. Do they forget that Indiana has hawks & shit??
Hey, was that Kevin? 😂 Did Kevin wander from Fishers all the way to Irvington?
I just celebrated 22 years of my taken last name yesterday. I had my original last name for 26 years & it’ll be a challenge if I take it back because it is not only a pain to get others to spell it correctly, it’s very obvious that it’s a Jewish one & why I keep my FB setting to friends only.
Some economic stats from Trump 2.0: The effective tariff rate is now 18.6%. In 2024, it was 2.4%. A tariff is a tax on Americans GDP is HALF what it was in 2024 Unemployment was 3.4%, now 4.2% 75% more job cuts in the 1st 7 months of 2025, compared to 2024 Are you tired of all the winning?
I don’t want to go back to my maiden name but if keeping my husband’s last name takes away my right to vote, I’ll do it.
I'll never forget the college kids saying "I'm voting for Trump because he's going to end all wars" as if that was viable or plausible from a guy who fawned over all his dictator buddies' strongman behavior in his first term.
I’m going to say this louder this time: if you are lying about having a high-risk condition to get a Covid vaccine, all good, do what you want to do BUT show some actual goddamn respect for people who *actually* have that condition and start masking.
Hey Kids! ( Fuck I love this account)
They’re doing all this to prevent people from MEMORIALIZING A MASS SHOOTING
Cottagecore to Lebensborn pipeline, yeah. Wealthy, white Christians presenting their lives like it was utopia just doing farm work & raising multiple children while making every meal from scratch while leaving out the parts about having nannies & employees. I do enjoy the parodies though. 😅
They drove Gidon Lev off the app. He is the sweetest old man who happens to be a Holocaust survivor living in Israel & posting about his history & his everyday life. Nothing hateful! WTF is wrong with people?? 😫
> He was bending the knee before anyone the guy was sworn in & no leftists boycotted the app after that. They dgaf. Their accounts were never in danger.
When the shutdown was looming, there were tearful posts from the big accounts of where to find them. The shutdown was, like, less then 24 hrs. Trump “saved” the app & so many big accounts shrugged & kept posting like it never happened, not mad at him or the CEO, who was at the inauguration!>
> struggling for engagement due to the aforementioned suppression but their posts would be reported for bullying & removed. Appeals took a long time. It was absolutely disgusting. When TikTok was “banned” briefly & then came back after Trump “saved” it, I gave up. It went from bad to worse.
It started small with people baking gross or confusing things, but others learned from them. They tapped into the anger & hate to get engagement. People fell for it & it became a way to spread propaganda. The creators posting educational content to counteract the hate (coded or not) were already>
That app pushed for whiteness, especially thin, white beauty standards. The racism & antisemitism were already there before the election, before 10/3/23. All that other shit is not surprising when one knows what the app was like already.
There was algorithm suppression before any political talk of banning the app. There were groups of creators who got together to plan days with specific hashtags & plead for engagement of any kind to get it trending just so they could get eyes on their content. Rage farming added to the mess.
This is a great time to remind everyone that EOs aren’t laws, the federal government doesn’t manage voting in this way, and it’s all a scare tactic and any reporting that doesn’t provide that context is enabling potentially lawless activity.

If Missouri Republicans mid-cycle redistrict and break the law, they will be sued. That is a promise and I don't bluff. Just ask Texas. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
love to see robinette getting ice cream
I have been told by Wiccan & Witch friends about how any energy you put out in the universe comes back to you threefold, good or bad, & I tend to believe it. In Judaism, there is lashon hara. It’s a bit more complicated (it’s more like gossip) but it damages one’s soul.
