That's waaaay too kind
Yep, I still don't give a damn if people are offended by swearing or not. That's their hangup, not mine. I raised my children to be kind, empathetic people. I'll put the way they treat others up against any religious person who's been raised in church from birth into adulthood.
I love close captioning.....
It's clearly a testing ground for tolerance of US military being misused, and against the prevailing rights of local authorities. Enjoy Gilead. It will be a very special surprise for the wantonly ignorant & obtuse.
Too late. Bill Gates is a perfect example- he's already bought up swathes of farming land, and now he's influencing global seed archives and patents
Why is it children's responsibility to risk their lives? Do you think an NDA is keeping all of them quiet? Guaranteed they have credible threats to their lives. Are you prepared to risk your life? You first buddy... your misogyny is showing
Chairman Trump www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
It's still utterly redundant and an irrational clothing choice 😂
Both are hell-bent on destroying their countries.
Exactly this - he has been installed into the VP position- and he is seriously indebted to Thiel & his cronies for his political career who have bankrolled the whole thing. Vance was chosen because he vapid, pliable and utterly amoral. Gilead is not far away.
I thought they'd be dangerous in manufacturing settings?
This is not most times. He was installed by Peter Thiel to do his bidding. Vance is the worst kind of human - he has no integrity, no humanity, and is utterly beholden to dangerous outside forces - there is a credible theory he will replace Trump before 2028 and that he'll do the bidding of P2025.
It is Kevin Roberts and Susie Wilks - they're transforming the US through the Executive into a Christo-fascist state - whilst dangerous fools like RFK & Hegseth create a smokescreen with their increasingly diabolical incompetence and bad faith actions... whilst Project 2025 is ahead of schedule...
You live in the US, not the world. The rest of the world doesn't tolerate having their children gunned down to appease a gun lobby.
The delusion persists, unfortunately
Guns are fast becoming redundant for defence against the State - drones, biowarfare, hypercapitalism, and the surveillance state are not going to be defeated by private citizens guns...
I really hope this is true - but they are very busy undermining democracy across the board - installing sympathisers everywhere - so the blocks to the Heritage Foundation and Trump's treachery that occurred in 2020 will not be there. Can Susie Wiles, Stephen Smith and Kevin D. Roberts be stopped?
The latter
That seems to be it, which I gather is ominous in itself... his congestive heart failure, and kidney issues exacerbated by his meds, put him on a sharp decline...
Thanks for sharing
Remember your oath to the Constitution.
Trumpism will - but the Heritage Foundation will have their claws in the democracy & Trump dying or fading away will not stop their plans. Trump is becoming surplus to their needs anyway. He's a smokescreen while Smith & Wiles et al. dismantle the Republic - they will then install another puppet.
It's not Trump. It's the Heritage Foundation - Trump is the useful idiot trying to avoid prison - he and his administration are the bumbling fools creating a distraction as P2025 dismantles your democracy. Enjoy Gilead.
So what is it then?
You win 😆
It's probably kinda true, but I was hoping for venomous snake bite, or maybe Vance bit him and gave him rabies 🤷🏼♀️
So true. So many Dems are beholden to their corporate sponsors/overlords that they are powerless to push back. Only the Democrats have the national org to push back like you say - yet only a couple of Dem leaders actually taking it up to Trump, but its P2025 that's the real protagonist anyway.
Trump is ultimately extraneous to the Project 2025 / Heritage agenda - they have achieved 50% of their list ahead of schedule. Trump will be eased, or erased, out of his role - and they will install another puppet who will yet again be a distraction from the Christian fascist state. Enjoy Gilead.
Rape, not fuck
Thanks for sharing, I'd also forgotten why he's so problematic
While they are busy telling us what MLK Jr said & how he would be ashamed of us because we're not living the dream they distorted for annual sound bites & finger wagging...
Just blokes
The govt will love this, so always remember - the LNP are irrelevant. Being “better” than the LNP is also irrelevant. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...
Grow up, you're positively febrile - any Google search utterly debunks your childish claim
Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"
i already established the facts ffs - I dare you to put into any AI your ridiculous contentions and watch yourself get shamed by a LLM - you have no idea what you are talking about - and it takes 5 seconds of research to establish your point is utter nonsense - as I have clearly done. get help.
shit, that's a terrible confession
that is high praise George, may you bask in this irony.
well as long as you're delighted Bruce, we can all rest easy 😘
are you drunk? or you just cant parse new information? I laid bare the historical facts but your brain seems to be buffering under the pressure. I get it, you have no critical thinking skills because you're in poor district with shit schools. But educate yourself. Also being partisan is very weak.
'Southern Democrats' of the 1800s aren’t the Democratic Party of today. Party ideologies realigned, especially after the Civil Rights era. Trying to pin slavery on modern Democrats is just bad-faith time travel. When the Civil Rights Act passed, segregationists fled to the GOP, and the map flipped.
There were false statements- read it again #factsmatter
What? Okayyyyyyyy... geez, I inserted a basic fact .... hardly about myself or centering myself, just trying to reality check a false statement. You know this is social media right? That's the point - but please have a little whinge if it makes you feel better sweetheart 😬
Of course, Australians eat their national mascot, but Americans eat their domestic pets... seems legit
I did, just recently, so thanks for the suggestion. We have plenty on the farm and once in a while one ends up on the BBQ - have you tried kangaroo? - its not too gamey.
These purity tests are utterly counter-productive - who is going to be good enough? You need someone prepared to fight a little dirty. How do you think wars get won against evil foe? The English and Americans did plenty of heinous things during WW2. Churchill was voted out straight after the war.
That's a you problem - typical American 😂
The US has created a lot of the global fuck ups through various overt and covert means - its all the same thing
Wow, you explain that to the African children working in mines - I'm sure they'll appreciate the nuance
It is back, globally there is more slavery in the world than ever before, characterized by forced labor, human trafficking, debt bondage, child labor, and other forms of involuntary servitude. Wealth inequality and the US incarceration system also greatly impact freedoms and human rights.
I reckon if it was that comfortable, we'd still be in suits and hats...
There's a lovely plot waiting for her at Trump's golf course
If what you say in a bsky post requires interpretation - and it's not in another language- that's just shit communication - and that's on you.
Why don't you have a good idea how to be actively resisting? There are 1000s of opportunities for someone of your privilege to be part of the resistance in so many ways. I just asked Perplexity Pro how to - and it gave me a detailed response on how to productively resist the Trump Administration. 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
Correction: Trump is a Universal disgrace
I find your attitude glib in the face of what is a terrifying amount of legislation, and Executive actions which are greatly undermining US democracy, and democratic norms. People are dying, and a lot more will due to various new policies that remove health & welfare support to millions of people.
Everything Republicans created mental images of fear about in the minds of Americans for decades..."Tanks in the street" and a "Fascist takeover" is happening right now...BECAUSE of Republicans. They're the ones doing those very things.
Why dont you acknowledge the woman behind these posts? Camille Zapata is the Digital Director in Governor Newsom's office and is recognized as the mind behind the viral digital strategy that blends strategy with satire on social media.
That hair 😍
When Ted Turner asked Carl Sagan if he was a socialist, Sagan gave the answer America keeps failing to learn.
Mate, you're just another tedious little misogynist. Women dont trust you for a reason. You're unsafe. Go. Away.
Why am I seeing this 😩
If you're a feminist don't use bitch as a slur - but if you hate women, good work
Where did I say that?????? Are you drunk or just hopelessly wrong??
Wtaf is wrong with you?????? Where did i say dick move????
Also thanks for your response ☺️ its great to see you good guys walking the talk 🙏
I have no idea - probably ditch the violence in the first place, yeah? Use your words, there's plenty of scathing insults that aren't sexist or violent...
No, the term is inherently sexist, & the whole point is that it is demeaning toward a man. You are deliberately misunderstanding this. You dont like your unconscious biases challenged. You're so riddled with them, you go to irrational jelly when challenged. We see you, & we're sick of it. Do better.
Why is a misogynistic slur better?
Looooved this song
You win 😆👏
We'll see. There's a theory that by using Trump's failing health and cognition, Thiel, and his billionaires cohort with Project 2025, will have Vance replace Trump before 2028... and then they'll rig the election (again) - so Vance's personal popularity will be irrelevant to the electoral outcome 🤷🏼♀️
Thank you!! It's child rape not sex
Well said 👏
They look too peaceful
GOP - “There’s nothing in the rules that says a dog can’t play basketball!” California:
Thiel needed a highly compliant, closeted, white male with an inferiority complex and zero charisma, so Thiel could easily manage him. JD is perfect for this - particularly as he has no personal political appeal, so he's worthless without Thiel's backing- just the way PT likes it.
Seriously??? That's your mindless comment??? Young black men should sacrifice their careers for nothing??? The mindless cohort like yourself on BSky is killing the conversation. You sit down, and shut up. Just stop your ##moronocracy
Thiel has the human sofa-lover as VP because he will follow orders from Thiel and the other oligarchs... and JD pleases his masters very well
Mate, you're wrong. Mate is not only a term of friendship in Australia. it's an expression of contempt for idiots like you. You're stupid. That's not my problem. You posting idiotic claims and pretending you understand the English language is laughable and sad.
You expect very young black men to sacrifice their futures for your pointless idea??? What is wrong with you?
Project 2025 has completed at least 50% of its list ahead of schedule. Trump & his administration are the smokescreen to one of the most effective regime changes in US history. Enjoy Gilead.
So many parapets, so few snipers 🤷🏼♀️
Mate your ignorance is your problem- I called out your blatant ignorance- and you're so feeble, so childish, so wrong, you can't ever admit you're wrong. So again, because you're a slow learner: You're wrong. Apologise. Do better. Or shut up. Your whiny baby shtick is embarassing, old duffer.
Mate, you got corrected because you are the idiot. Your feeble mind obviously can't cope with a word evolving in its meaning. Look it up yourself, or is that beyond your 1980s computer skills? 😂😂😂 Have a nap grandpa, & keep off social media if you can't accept fault & apologise for being ignorant
AI is free. Many studies and data show that workplaces with union representation have lower rates of injuries and illnesses. Unionized workplaces have reported up to 24% lower injury rates, and involvement of union safety representatives has led to significant reductions in accidents and injuries.
Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.
I only learned 5 years ago how babies were used as alligator bait in the south and I realized I couldn’t fathom the absolute depths humanity scraped during slavery
Intelligent humans seem to trend towards....... .............W.O.K.E.N.E.S.S.................. Thank you !
Words evolve old man. "Rawdogging" originally refers to having sex without using a condom or protection. This is the oldest meaning of the slang term. In recent usage, especially online, it has broader meanings, & now often means undertaking or enduring an activity completely without any aids.

I love these unexpected feminist heroes emerging from middle age like a reborn chyrsalis - transformed and inspirational.
Burrows’ submission made earlier on Wednesday – that Lehrmann’s evidence before Lee might have been different if it was known that he would make the finding he did about the rape – was “an astonishing admission” Collins said. So is this BL admitting to perjury? www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...
