could be one of the most important ones, honestly. š¤
There are many reasons we donāt debate Nazis. That it financially supports them is an important one.
hey Bluesky pals, can we please help a Native family stay housed? š©µ If you got paid this week, consider chipping in $5 or $10.
We have 11 days to get this paid & avoid eviction. Please boost & donate if you can šš½ā¤ļø gofundme.com/f/help-us-st...

people took the time to explain this to me and now i regret knowing things
Hi friends, Rose is raising support for some really cool opportunitiesāletās get her fully funded! More info at the bottom of this post. open.substack.com/pub/agentlel...
Honestly the name was an immediate yellow flag for me given the general California vibe of the whole thing
i have never heard of this. incredible
bahahahahaha
may have been more but the tactic is still working out great for them
*actively taking notes*
Yup. Itās the visibility.
WOW. what is the poem portion from?
1000% was shocked Pastor Solomon would share such a thing! š
(in case you didnāt know, Jubilee was created by an evangelical christian)
read this as āi love this ladyās feetā š£ š³
can i babysit her? š»
iād just like to remind everyone that Ken Hamās floating zoo got millions of dollars in funding because he had a debate with Bill Nye and lost. Conservatives use bad debates to enrich themselves. All this to say, normal people need to STOP going on Jubilee. It is empowering Christian Nationalists.
you went above and beyond to answer my question. wow. thanks, i think? š iām no longer sure i wanted to know this! š
oh my god š¤£
this should become a thing, putting up signs like this for every arrest & disappearance in public spaces. it would likely break into lower info, less politically engaged demos and local social media groups
it does help! weirdly, there is actual science behind it! was just trying to get my partner to see on our hike today because we were both in pain! ;)
so many stories like this.
ššš thats totally fair.
I never thought of it that way but then again I express my frustration through a lot of swears š¬
bahahahahaha yes indeed
iām so sorry š it happens?
A fund I would need. š«
The Trump is dead meme has broken containment This is not a drill
feels absolutely unhinged
yesssss!! itās an excellent film. i wonāt talk about the implications bc you already know šš
You are not necessarily going to have to specify what makes you high risk and therefore qualified for a Covid shot. You likely will only just have to click āyesā - and the truth is EVERYONE IS HIGH RISK Getting covid puts you at risk for disability and chronic illness.
People who might be comfortable with their neighbors quietly disappearing aren't always comfortable when the grotesque human rights abuses involved are made public. They don't like to imagine themselves as the bad people you make them seem like when you point out what's happening. So keep doing it.
people keep using it to win fights WITH THEMSELVES and it just keeps on keeping on. i sincerely hate that it makes no sense and is weirdly fash in the lyrics? who is he speaking to that he gets off asking these inappropriate questions? light it on fire! š¤£
is this AI music? what is happening?

can someone PLEASE explain to me why the trending sound is a man losing a fight with himself in the shower over how many daughters he has?!
EXACTLY!!
The chicken feet are growing on me. Justin might be onto something.
Cascade Locks is one of the most beautiful small towns in the US. It is in Hood River county which is considered a democratic stronghold. But all the coffee shops are explicitly owned by Christian Nationalists. I think I need to open an Everyone Else coffee shop here. š
seeing the "trump might be dead and they're covering it up" stuff again, and it's like, c'mon, we've already been through this a few times now wake me up when the shitbag is confirmed in the ground, i'll celebrate then
this is my calling.
any body want to help me plan sneaking around and raising all the flags back up to full mast
i meanā¦ we all hate Trump? who are you signaling to?? just pull an āevangelical satanā and lower case the whole name if youāre trying to insult him.
Iām legitimately confused. From the article i get the sense that Umstattd is pro-homeschooling no matter what, while admitting abuse exists, but because itās not most homeschool parents just a small minority (lol) doing the abusing, weāre all good?
itās 2025 and full grown liberals are still writing ātRumpā good. thatāll show him!
Ya know what caused my kids' autism IT WAS ME AND THEIR NERD ASS DAD
We had SUCH a blast with @rsokamoto.bsky.social talking about the perils of being visited by Lilith and other she-demons with bird feet If you grew up evangelical or otherwise harmed by religion, check it out. ā¤µļø podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/g...
Because I have a Trump personality type as a parent, it will absolutely be to get one last dig in at individual family members who he is displeased with right now.
as a Black person and library kid, the way this made me holler š
oh hell yeah!! thank you for sharing!
Counterpoint, that teeny Alabama town (pop <100) that's 2/3rds black and did not have local elections in the last 60 years. Just passed on from white guy to white guy. Black guy entered as sole candidate in 2020 and won. They barred him from office. Now they had elections, he won. Cute lil library:
love this for both you š©µš©·

this should be a scandal. jonathan is one of vinay prasadās most incisive & vocal critics. prasad is actively censoring his non-government scientific critics. and his position of power means youtube will do whatever he says
i canāt even read this in his voice which is a dead giveaway it wasnāt written by him. ChatGPT could do a better job
normal godly white woman!
thank you, i needed this laugh
itāll be approximately that for sure
today someone asked me what i will do when Trump dies and the only thing i know for a fact i will do is weep. probably for hours. possibly days. which makes me sound like a raging Magat but here we are.
generous of you to think Bezos thinks about book clubs!
Honestly, this is the first time iāve ever wished i lived in DC š„¹ bet Portland could do this 3-4 months a year
Welch: As someone who lives in a red state, let me just tell you what MAGA supermajorities get you. We're 50th in education. The worst in the whole country for women to live. We're poorer, worst health care. And if you look at the bottom ten states, they are all MAGA supermajorities.
I get not knowing a term. What I donāt get is not taking the time to find out what it means.
I had therapists tell me that my relationships with fellow exvangelicals was trauma bonding. Nope. Spending time with people who relate to your lived experience is totally normal and healthy. Hereās an accessible overview of trauma bonding. health.clevelandclinic.org/trauma-bonding
itās so strange how veterans with PTSD needed to spend time in community as a way to heal but the minute victims of male violence started to form connections with one another, we were universally accused of ātrauma bondingā (which is not remotely what that term means)
RFK Jr looks like heās been sampling the diseases at the CDC
It's officially Black Breastfeeding Week, so I'm reupping this thread. I'll be adding to it from now to the end of the month.
Ooooh. So many folks illustrate how racism has completely separated Indigenous, Black and other Ethnicities from their humanness and set a default for who gets to be seen as "human" or as "people". When we talk about our identities, so many folks chime in with "what about just "people"?
it really does! she gets 100% her energy by causing people physical and emotional pain.
Our children deserve to grow up. Fletcher Merkel and Harper Moyski should still be alive. As a father, I'm heartbroken for what these families are going through. As a legislature, we need to take action. We need a special session. Let's move our feet. senatedfl.mn/senator-omar...
hell yeah! 17 years is great work. I hit 5 years on August 9th ;)
W, but there are also other facilities that get less national attention that need to shutter.
being a billionaire is such a bad thing even Jesus threatened to burn them in hell.
don't sleep on what's happening in prosecutor races!
as someone who just hit my 5 year anniversary of No Contact with parents who refuse to stop dehumanizing anyone who isnāt a white christian nationalist, you nailed it.
thanks. itās rough.
Also, how many Republicans saying itās not okay to stop talking bc of political views also wonder why their kids havenāt talked to them since 2016? āI didnāt kick them out for political reasons! I WANT them to listen to me denigrate and insult everything they value.ā
I donāt know who needs to hear this, but we donāt need to fight fairly against fascism. We just need to fight.
literally this.
obsessed šŗ
sheās not racist though! you know this because she says it a whole lot!
yup. has five Black kids and every time we try to talk about race she repeats āIām not racistā like a mantra until we stop talking. she sucks so bad!
why are they asking for him to return? hes clearly aged out. or is it ICE recruiting him now?
anyway. white christian nationalists are great.
my dadās whole family is Black. my mom would send each of them birthday cards every year without fail and intentionally misspell their names. she has also done this with the Black kids she watches. she will pick a white sounding nickname for each of them and refuse to call them their given names.
families donāt turn kids queer but they sure turn some kids atheist!
*enormous sigh* probably what i would have said as a 7 year old
bullshit like this tempts me to go back to church to try and protect kids from these emotional terrorists who are in charge
that part makes sense
very similar!!
jesus fuck
nope. donāt like that!
GOOD. fk whoever is protecting child predators like this.

shit like this being run by amateurs (meaning people who donāt respect kidsā needs and distress signs) are SO dangerous. children die doing these kinds of things because theyāre rooted mainly in the leaders ego and have nothing to do with actually increasing grit or stamina or endurance or whatever
preferably one where we donāt let 1,600 of the worst guys off the hook and give them cushy government jobs. š¬
