Flagged this just a few weeks ago, in fact. We *desperately* need more education for reporters on pregnancy criminalization, and for readers to be skeptical of these kinds of headlines bsky.app/profile/jess...
Pro tip for covering pregnancy-related arrests: don't use the word 'infant' before finding out what actually happened. More often than not, these are miscarriages, but outlets will repeat the language cops use - smearing women in the process www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
A decline in foreign visitors traveling to the United States has stretched well into the summer. And tourism experts say the downward trend that emerged after President Donald Trump returned to the White House shows no immediate signs of reversing apnews.com/article/inte...

"In 2024, Norway exported a gas volume equivalent to more than 30 per cent of the total gas consumption in the EU and the United Kingdom... This makes oil and gas the most important export commodities in the Norwegian economy." If Nigeria did this kind of greenwashing I promise you'd move different
The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans. And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.
The next Democratic president should declare that the National Emergencies Act and Article II of the Constitution allow him to: •admit D.C. and Puerto Rico as states •abolish ICE •grant citizenship to any immigrant •disband the 5th Circuit •expand the Supreme Court Seriously: Why the hell not?
Trump just authorized up to 600 military lawyers to serve as immigration judges - effectively doubling the bench overnight. Courts are supposed to be independent, not staffed by the Pentagon. This is how you turn immigration into a battlefield instead of due process.
Sometimes it just hits me that we have KNOWN Russian assets in Congress And in the Cabinet And in the Oval office RIP USA
Please talk to some Black people before dismissing the psychological impact of having Feds running around the neighborhood hemming people up en masse.
Oh, this one hurts me.
Netflix is putting its money where its mouth is: 💰 $2M to back Newsom in the redistricting fight 📺 A deal for Sesame Street — new episodes and the full archive free to watch. That’s how you pick a side.

The problem isn’t refugees on boats. The problem is oligarchs hoarding obscene amounts of wealth while most people fight to stay afloat. Wages aren't tied to inflation, so the working class keeps falling behind no matter how hard they work.
IT’S ALL NATIVE LAND!

MO Gov Mike Kehoe is calling a special session to gerrymander the 5th District which encompasses Kansas City. He is specifically violating Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which bans any voting practice that denies or weakens the power of a racial minority to elect its preferred candidates.
1. On Saturday, a judge ordered Pulse pride crosswalk protester released from jail. Police arrested him after he chalked the bottom of his shoe in rainbow colors and walked across it. Sunday, police arrested 3 more under the same charges. Subscribe to support my journalism.
So glad to see him reelected, and y'know *in* office since they literally changed the locks on him I wrote about this town last year bc there was a lawsuit to make it have elections, which coincidentally stopped around when the Voting Rights Act was passed 🙃 ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...
Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
My grandmother was a nurse who came of age in the nightmare years of whooping cough, measles, polio. She understood the power of vaccines to save children's lives. Now the anti-vaxx right wing conspiracy mob have laid out the welcome mat to these killers. www.independent.co.uk/news/health/...
A Labor Day reminder: today there isn't a single city, metro area, or state in the U.S. where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford a modest 2-bedroom apartment. Millions of people with jobs—even multiple jobs—aren't safe from homelessness in this country.
Netflix just gave Gavin Newsom 2 million for the redistricting fight and made a deal with Sesame Street. New episodes will air there and the backlog of old episodes will Be free to watch. Netflix picked a side. I will keep my subscription.
If you enjoy… Weekends Safe working conditions Retirement benefits Paid vacations Breaks at work Sick leave Paid holidays … then you’re part of the labor movement. Happy Labor Day.
Cue a benny hill-soundtracked cascade of increasingly more rainbow crosswalks and florida state troopers painting them over
Damn, Florida really out there banning public art like a 90's cartoon villain
RFK Jr. 😂🤣 🔊🆙
Imagine if they put all this time and resources into solving cold cases....
This is just sad. We’ve posted about this before. Now here is what is going down. The rainbow crosswalk at the Pulse memorial in Orlando (created to honor the 49 lives lost in the 2016 shooting) has now become the target of state enforcement.
Schroedinger's President
President Vance would completely collapse the GOP overnight so please god let it happen
JD Vance asking to be invited into a city feels really on the nose after Sinners
did Vance shake hands with Trump or something
"JD Vance might be worse" JD Vance has 1 HP
So good
RFK Jr looks like he’s been sampling the diseases at the CDC
Everyone on Bluesky is poised like we're waiting for the DVD logo to hit the corner of the screen
Live your life so that people don’t consider rumors of your death a form of edging.
My Bluesky timeline is so divided.
I just want you all to know that I really hate this Watto thing, but I support your right to do it. Only human artists can make something so vile and depraved.
any body want to help me plan sneaking around and raising all the flags back up to full mast
I’m just saying that when it happens I’m jumping out of bed, running to my window, and tossing a coin to a boy to buy the biggest goose in town

Huge news - appeals court rules that a majority of the President’s tariffs are illegal. The President is wreaking havoc on our economy, and he is breaking the law to do it. We must right this ship. We need sane trade policy again.

Disgraceful.

The CDC is gutting a program that monitors foodborne illnesses. The program will now only track infections caused by two pathogens, rather than eight. Hello? How does this “Make America Healthy Again”?
Chicago keeping art alive:
Lots of right-wing political pastors and charlatans about to get rich from FEMA money.
Art depicting “Sandwich Guy” now at the scene of the alleged misdemeanor.
The Construction and subsequent teardown of Alligator Alcatraz will cost taxpayers an easy $320 million—money that could house every Floridian experiencing homelessness. Imagine if Gov. DeSantis found as much joy in transforming lives as he does in destroying them.
The next days and months and years will demand from all of us great courage — and solidarity. Be prepared.
When a president decides to disregard the will of the American people, you’re right, that’s the mark of authoritarian rule. The White House has notified Congress that it plans to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid funding that lawmakers had already approved, doing so without their consent.
I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is. This isn’t normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.
there is no question in my mind that rfk jr is the most dangerous person in this administration and that his eugenicist ideology threatens the lives of millions of people www.advocate.com/politics/dem...
A reminder for future generations….please don’t let this kind of music die out.
Chinese artist Leng Jun,I have never seen anything like it. Extraordinary!!!
There’s plenty of disinformation trying to blame the nascent offshore wind industry for whale deaths without evidence. Not only is that misleading, it also takes the focus away from solutions that might actually address the leading causes of death — vessel strikes and entanglement with fishing gear.

If you've been following my reporting and stories from the ground in Iowa, you would know that Iowa will flip seats. This had a lot to do with the anger at Trump, but mostly with the organizers doing the hard work on the ground. Contest every seat. Run everywhere. www.nbcnews.com/politics/ele...
Tony, read the fuckin room.
Another school year, another group of kids suffering a trauma they should never have to even think about, let alone experience.
Yeah, but this is the National Guard doing something useful while being deployed, at least. Move their asses to a soup kitchen next.
Me and my kids would pick through the garbage for food before I’d ever go to work for ICE…
People are put off Woody Allen by his appearance in Moscow? Wow - it was the pedophelia that put me off him decades ago.
Look what they did to Notepad. Shut the fuck up. This is Notepad. You are not welcome here. Oh yeah "Let me use Copilot for Notepad". "I'm going to sign into my account for Notepad". What the fuck are you talking about. It's Notepad.
Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimes—assaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justice—they can be prosecuted.
I don’t need a tariff rebate check, I need a retribution check for ten years of mental cruelty
The appropriate amount of time to spend thinking about Cracker Barrel is for 7 seconds on the highway, as you pass the logo moving 78 MPH. We have far exceeded the limit.
Man, I bet that won't be exploited....
I'm tired of mainstream news articles trying to link the backlash on Cracker Barrel's blundering rebrand to what happened with Bud Light. Those are two entirely different events. CB: ass-modern rebrand that sucks the personality out of everything. vs Bud Light: transphobia.
That's right @jollygoodginger.bsky.social I can't say how happy I am to see others starting to use the right language. To all of my followers who've been using the same words "Tyranny, Tyrannical Regime the FFs feared, oppression". I'd recc' calling them Traitors. Remind these fools that...
Japan Post just announced they will no longer deliver mail to the United States, joining Germany, Austria, Denmark, Italy, France, and Sweden.
Snoop went from Gin & Juice to whining about a lesbian kiss in a Pixar movie. Imagine surviving decades of censorship, police harassment, and being labeled a “threat to society”… only to turn around and fear visibility for others who’ve been marginalized just like you.
Concert outside the White House! #cdnpoli

Just saw the Raja Jackson and Syko Stu video. Jesus christ....
It's also not new at all. This has happened with the "justice system" for a loooong time. There is no true exoneration unless it's for wealthy elite.
The fact that this administration is hell bent on punishing Kilmar Abrego Garcia while rewarding Ghislane Maxwell tells you all you need to know about their violent racism and misogyny.
This hits right on time… My wife and I had the great privilege of visiting the African-American Museum in DC, and let me just tell you if you have not been…It is a masterpiece—go.
We all know the goal was always to “own the libs.” And in chasing that, too many have given up their own freedoms just to claim a hollow “win.” What they don’t see is that the monster they fed never stops, it eventually comes for us all. And now their silence is deafening.
Today in Black History: On Aug. 25, 1927, tennis legend Althea Gibson was born in Silver, SC. The daughter of sharecroppers, she rose from Harlem’s courts to win Grand Slams, shatter racial barriers in tennis, and later break ground as the first Black woman on the LPGA tour. #BlackHistory
The White House calls it a war zone. Yesterday I toured the “front lines.” I saw a total of about 15 military types strolling around, talking to tourists, petting dogs. I guess the war on DC’s violence doesn’t extend to Sundays.
For. Fuck's. Sake.
Neil deGrasse Tyson: “Imagine thinking scientists, historians, scholars, economists, and journalists devoted their lives to deceiving you — but a reality-TV star, proven in court to be a lying felon, is your beacon of truth and honesty.”
The maggots embrace of Maxwell proves one thing beyond a shadow of a doubt: They were never anti-pedophile. Their epstein crusade was just another flavor of anti-left. They are the most boring, predictable ghouls to ever drag their asses across the earth.
