I’m always pleasantly surprised when I get a like or follow on Bluesky.

I spend some time on Instagram and it’s all bots. But here it’s like “oh, that’s a real person. And they seem pretty cool.”

Internal monologue at 4 a.m.: “Is that a smoke alarm chirping? Maybe if I ignore it I can get back to sleep.”

That did not work.

The guy who uses the avatar of the fictional alcoholic Col. Saul Tighe is reflecting on like ability and self acceptance. That’s the kind of stuff I open this app for. :)

I see a spaceship with faster than light capabilities and extensive bike parking. I like it.

I prefer “document and demoralize” because of the alliteration.

If you think a department like that can be reformed you’re a fool.

We need to close it and prepare for Nuremberg-level trials.

We know that 4more children from Liam's school are still in ICE custody in TX. But we still do not know how many children from MN in total have been detained by ICE.

I initially scrolled past this because it was so unpleasant.

Read it. Share it with your Fox News brainwashed aunt.

👇 This was posted in response to USA Today’s lousy headline that said that Gov Walz was criticized for comparing the situation some Minnesota children are facing to Ann Frank’s.

I’m not. If the 2020s have taught me anything it’s that there are a lot
of people in charge who lack courage and moral clarity.

Infographic card with quote: “There must be a recognition on the part of everybody in this nation that America is still a racist country. Now however unpleasant that sounds, it is the truth. And we will never solve the problem of racism until there is a recognition of the fact that racism still stands at the center of so much of our nation and we must see racism for what it is.”

Every day, but especially on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we're reminded of the systemic racism that plagues every part of the U.S. criminal legal system – from arrest to sentencing and even reentry.

I can’t watch this. It would make my blood boil. Are those kids okay? What about the 6 month old who stopped breathing?

That tracks. I’ve seen more reckless driving lately.

I don’t want you to scare people away from winter cycling. With proper gear it’s comparable to skiing.
