The essential workers!
LWCC. Liberal af. Stuff I pay attention to: sports, politics, climate change, books, music, AI, quantum physics, James Webb telescope, wine, pizza, cats. Most of this stuff is to help me deal with the hellscape that was previously known as The USA.

The essential workers!
This makes me so sad. I adored him. I think he made me “see” indigenous people for the first time, in a real, human way.
Disturbing tidbit about my mom: She said that she sometimes reads the last chapter of a book to decide if she wants to read the whole book… What kind of psychopath does that?!? #Booksky
Jfc.
Awww, the tiger is singing.
Obviously, we’re glass half full kind of folks.
……….. 🙃
Look at this gorgeous watercolor!
I originally intended this to be a preliminary sketch for a larger piece. But after living with it for a few days I actually like it as is - scrappiness and everything #watercolor #watercolorsketch #watercolorpainting #watercolorcityscape #cityscape
Insanely beautiful!
New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
Is that guy even alive? He looks like a vampire.
Dear Americans, welcome to the thrilling game of ‘Did this dictator die or just disappear for a day?’ We’ve been playing it with Putin and Lukashenko for decades. Enjoy the suspense.
Good.
trump saying he’s not happy with Putin/Russia is the same as Susan Collins saying she’s concerned.
Gavin Newsom reenacted Trump's cabinet meeting at it's hilarious, including a simplified MAGA level "presidential" English. 🤣
Apparently, we’ll continue to do nothing.
The new ICE song by Jesse Welles nails it. ICE isn’t recruiting heroes, it’s recruiting the bitter, the rejected, the ones desperate for a badge to cover their failures. Losers with power become the most dangerous kind. (c/o Caroline Codsi)
True
Strong play.
This country is just a series of great big fat hate crimes. It’s what we do best. And, we must be proud of it; we don’t try to change anything. Our politicians are nothing more than weak soulless stooges taking orders, fearfully, from their Nazi overlord.
Every damned day.
I have zero faith that this country will solve its gun problem, not when there is money to be made and people to be bought. #BanWorldCup #BanOlympics
This country may have been slowly dying for years previously, but it died forever on the day that the Sandy Hook shootings happened and we didn’t care.
Don’t do it, Florida!
Pretty darned creative!
Hmmm, not sure that’s completely true, Jill. Granted, the numbers of Jewish slave owners was relatively small compared to Christian and Muslim owners.
Not one bit.
SORRY (from USA) I agree. And, I LIVE for World Cup. trump is going to ruin it anyway. He already moved the draw from Vegas to the Kennedy Center so he can poop all over the proceedings. Next, he’ll allow Russia in. Makes me sick.
Geez, he posts like he’s still on early Twitter.
Excellent.
Good.
Thank You, @govpritzker.illinois.gov ‼️‼️ We need leadership like you, @governor.ca.gov @govwesmoore.bsky.social @governor.ny.gov We. Have. To. End. Trump. Reign. Of. Terror.
Figures. I’d not heard of this group but not surprised.
He sure turned out to be a waste of breathable air.
We are screaming out here, media. Wanna report that?!?
OMG. Horrifying.
It really is! We’re sure not “fun” right now. 😭🤬
Love this guy!
Nice!
Mexico has class.
Wow! Say it.
Super hero right here.
He’s just a baby climber. He’ll day anything Daddy wants.
Canada will provide $1 billion for drones, ammunition, and armored vehicles for Ukraine, with deliveries expected as early as September, Prime Minister Carney announced.
In addition to creating a joyous event, Zohran Mamdani just showed the stupidity of Fox News's "Crime is so bad in New York City, people are afraid to go out in the street or take the subway!!!"
Hilarious!
This scavenger hunt is so charming and smart and actively engaging. It gets New Yorkers out and about, exploring the city, talking to one another, taking advantage of public transportation and working toward a common cause. The levels! It’s just so great.
So very true!!!!!
This is too much!!!!! We the people, are the ones that keep our soldiers going!!! The administration just takes benefits away from them!!!
Epstein survivor Sarah Ransome on Ghislaine Maxwell: “I have spent the last 17 years in my own prison for what she, Jeffrey, and all the co-conspirators did to me. I was raped three times a day. Ghislaine must die in prison.”
Good! Resist!
Would the bribery have to continue every time we wanted something? Asking for Czechoslovakia after the Munich Agreement of 1938. Answer: Yes, Hitler took the rest of CZE in 1939. You don’t kiss up to tyrants. They just want more.
Worst hypothetical ever. What is the point?

I love it! Brilliant!
There is a list. Who are the unindicted co conspirators? That is the list.
PREACH.
trump ruins everything.
Night Sky on Mars #nasadailyupdates
The craziest thing about this Cracker Barrel story is that Donald Trump was best friends with Jeffrey Epstein for decades and publicly admitted to trafficking young women to him out of Maralago.
Rest in hell.
💯
White woman puts Mexican flag on her truck to waste ICE’s time.
America indicted.
Some thoughts: 1. Putin has no intention of having any discussions that stop the war. This whole week was a waste of time. 2. trump has never been in a museum. He doesn’t know history, so wonder who told him museums are “woke.” 3. Also, trump’s a racist. 4. Let’s see those Epstein files.
There were male cheerleaders at my high school. I graduated in 1974. People are ridiculous.
Freaking exhausting how slow the universe is.
Wow. Fascism, folks.
The cruelty is the point.
There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.
Great job! Way to exhibit noncooperation and noncompliance! #OneMillionRising
That’s adorable. Miso now wants a mouse!
Love it!
They sure are!
Oh, good trick. I’ll try that.
Dammit.
OMG.
Embarassing doesn’t begin to cover it.
They get to endure what we’ve had to for ten years.
Can the bots maybe chat up climate change a little because we’re all gonna die before the dictator brothers have a chance to kill us
That. Is. Terrifying.
My “like” rule is “anybody but the Yankees.” Rangers fan. Don’t judge.
Meanwhile, while America falls, my cat has learned to play fetch. But, she yells at me if I throw her hair tie in the wrong place. Really? I have way too many dictators in my life.
Agree.
rumpie is a freaking traitor.
Short person here. I agree.
Americas has fallen.
Gross.
Awwww, so sweet.
How do they breathe on their own?!?
A spineless coward, a blathering idiot, and a gullible stooge walk into a bar. Bartender says, “Putin played you like a friggin’ fiddle in Alaska, Mr. President.”
I got yelled at once for documenting that part of the work I was charging for was working my emails. Part of my job was sending and responding to marketing requests. Shortly after, I was fired because my dad was sick so I missed a job. My dad died about a month later.
Help us cause some good trouble(virtually). Today, check in on Facebook at the Texas State Capitol to show support, even if you can’t be there in person. The more people who check in, the harder it is for to track who’s actually there. It’s simple and it sends a message: we’re watching, and we care.
Don’t be too sure about that. A lot of tech people started in the 70s. I started at 19, now I’m 68. I have a specific set of skills…
