For some people it's just an excuse to validate their transphobia.
It’s a little weird to demand people vote for a candidate as a necessary lesser evil three years before you even know if they’re going to be the candidate

Good primer on how to make your own feed with skyfeed.app www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmM8...
People reply (or quote-post) with a copy of the image and alt text added, but yeah, it's not the same.
They don't even have to do this. They have the original tweet they screenshot. All they have to do is copy/paste text.
holy shit, this is enormous. I haven't tried that in the web app. A ton of meteorologists make custom .gifs to share late-breaking weather information
btw, you can upload a gif file from your computer (in Bluesky web app) and it will be animated. The trick is upload it via video button.
Do you accept
Hakuna matata, baby.
It's literally copy/paste the original text. I don't understand it.
Big popular accounts add alt text to you screenshots challenge (impossible).
Definitely something is wrong with FiOS in my area, the Internet works, for the most part, but Google and Verizon sites aren't accessible.
Ah, it must be Verizon. On my home network I can't access it, but on the mobile it works.
Is Google down? That would be funny.
I like how he has to sign his post to convince us it's really him.
Or maybe rainbow? I'll take either.
+1 for Chromecast. They're cheap, plug in to HDMI port, and you can stream from the phone, or browser.
Trump's entire Truth Social feed looks like he is sucking his own dick.
Apropos of nothing NordVPN works fine on a Linux server.
Thanks! Yeah currently I am just using basic download features
Installed headless qBittorrent, its Web UI is pretty much like the regular UI
The the photo he (or whoever) posted saying he golfed on Saturday was actually from 2 weeks ago.
Really strongly recommend everyone get off Substack. Not just for the Nazi stuff, but because they're going to lock you into the platform and then slowly bleed you dry
i think some of what’s happening here is many cishet white leftists inadvertently revealing their belief that LGBTQ people only care about ourselves and that progressive policy is a zero-sum game. marginalized people who are accustomed to banding together for survival often don’t see it that way
Rudy Giuliani was heading to a drunk driving emergency when he was attacked by a bear, but he saved the woman the bear was chasing, and the bear was an illegal immigrant.
I don't know, gov. Pritzker told Trump to submit proof of life, and so far he hasn't.
I had portable one and a deck one. These things were awesome.
Get his ass
wow
This is horrifying.
One day you're America's Mayor, the next day everyone WOULD think it was funny that you were pancaked by a Mack truck driver but they're distracted trying to figure out exactly what kind of evil sexual assignation that interrupted
What if they just continue defy orders?
It's right up there next to Lou Dobbs thanking Trump for inventing weekends.
"We're going to need a story about this accident. Say he was helping a woman. That should work. Also, is he wearing pants? Make sure he's wearing pants."
There are so many people up Trump's ass, it's a wonder it hasn't burst yet.
I had a nice piece of apple pie today.
Awesome, thanks!
It's just an organization that should be burned to the ground. We have lots of families who my organization supports who love Autism Speaks, but tellingly it's always the parents and never the children...
Same energy bsky.app/profile/numb...
Oh cool! Which labeler is it?
Sorry, calibrating
party's back on chat
Nice!
My "We do not support eugenics" T-shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt.
And fuck @autismspeaks.org.
Non-disabled people specifically were not listening to autistic people who RFK Jr has gone after the hardest, in my opinion, because they're fine with quietly villainizing autism too.
What else's in the news?
Been there.
It is honestly so boring to feel this pissed off all the time
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.
Absolutely, he wants to erase from existence trans people, poor people, brown people, sick people, disabled people, he is a complicated dude.
jfc
are we doing No True Eugenicist now or some shit. are you going to tell me the trains ran on time too
lol, basically "do you think RFK Jr is a moron?" "well Trump picked him 🤷♂️"
running arch + framework laptop is the single best trick for pulling girls. you heard it here first.
I knew that in Fox News Cinematic Universe all major US cities were razed to the ground during BLM protests. But it's spreading to other networks.
Fucking ridiculous

I'm not saying they're having him shamble his decrepit ass to the car while keeping the press pool at a photos-of-Bigfoot distance only to just quickly circle around and sneak him back through another entrance, but I'm also not confident that's *not* what they're doing.
what if “Stop the Genocide” was a Netflix series, maybe then people would watch
This is some of the hardest shit I've seen in my life
time to start some fights and ruin some friendships. a burrito is canonically a sandwich
Ok but how’s the car
I will not be voting for Gavin Newsom
PSA: migrate off of substack to beehiv or ghost etc before apple captures your subscriber data and locks you in ASAP
Did Trump post a week-old golfing pic as if it were today? That would really thicken the plot, huh?
made a chart, hope this helps
Judge: I got a call at 2:36 a.m. because the govt chose this time on a holiday weekend to execute this plan. I have been up since then. I haven't been able to reach anyone from govt until this morning at 9:30 a.m. So absent this intervention, all children would already have been sent to Guatemala!
@thelouvreof.bsky.social just to add to your queue
This is a real danger but to jamelle's point in this thread, folks often don't appreciate the scale of American elections: how many polling places, election workers, and decentralized redundancies, and how little of it is under any federal control. It far outstrips federal manpower in its vastness.
GOD: *creating the earth ANGEL: I'm really excited to see how this evolves GOD: We NEVER use that word here
"It's not deportation, it's unification" is definitely a take.
I had a question come up and it's a good one, so I thought I would do a quick thread: We often see silent movie footage that is battered, decayed and smeary but what did these films look like to their original audience. And the answer is... it depends!
The people who are calling for better Democratic candidates are just trying to tell you all that you don't HAVE to choose between a shit sandwich and a maggot pie. Just because the corporate media has been putting someone on teevee doesn't make them your only choice.
My apologies to Frankenstein's monster, he did not deserve this comparison.
*asteroid hits the Earth* *clinging to a shard of melting stone* this is a distraction, release the Eps...
oh this is good
"continues to be alive" is a peculiar way to put it
“wet dream” implies the existence of—no. No. I’m not doing this hack shit. One thing existing does not mean it also has an extant opposite or inversion. No one thinks this and it’s usually just a way to write a dumb pun or intrusive phrasethought. I’m too good for this. Dry nightmare
