Jon from @wotup.bsky.social was the first person I found in the WoT fandom and the reason I made my way into a new community that has given me so many amazing friends. If you have any dollars to spare, please support him & his wife in this incredibly hard time. 💓
To the doomers who keep saying Trump will rig the 2026 and 2028 elections: Do not concede in advance
I JUST NEED EVERYONE TO KNOW THAT FOR ALL MANKIND IS BACK FOR SEASON 5 AND IT HAS GONE FROM AU SPACE RACE TO UNASHAMED EXPANSE PREQUEL
This is amazing! I loved Sister Act so much I broke my first VHS copy because I watched it over and over and over. Of course I bought another copy. Priorities!
The entire Democratic strategy debate — "moderate" or move left? fight or compromise? — is based on a misreading of data. Voters don't think Dems are too progressive; they think Dems are weak. The actual math on what to do about this isn't even close!

Finally watching Wheel of Time after starting the books and oh my god these women just radiant cunt at all times
Damn this Wheel of Time shit kinda hits
Spousal unit and I finally watched season 3 of Wheel of Time, and I am super annoyed it was cancelled.
I miss #TheWheelOfTime ☹️
Disturbingly detailed analysis of my first rewatch incoming
I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them
No Kings includes Draft Kings
Dear Amazon or whoever: please pay Rosamund Pike her going rate to record the rest of the Wheel of Time books, thank you.
While you're at it, we could use about 5 more seasons of the show.
People act like I'm naïve when I say I don't think they're going to cancel elections, and like no. I'm not?
I'm grimly pragmatic about how hard they have been making it to vote this whole time. They are *so good* at voter suppression, a lot of folks have just had the luxury of ignoring it.
what is the deal with so many journalists on here refusing to use alt text.
get it together, y'all. honestly. it's not that hard. just scan the damn text with your phone, copy it, and paste it. do people not know how to do that???
I’m actually still so upset they cancelled wheel of time
Save Wheel of Time next!
it took longer than expected but this did eventually get to Trump re: Elon! it has the added benefit of being even more true for Miller than it was for Musk
this is a nightmare fascist regime made up of the worst people alive but Miller is above all the driver of the worst of it and as long as he remains they will regroup and try again
he's enough of a Trump whisperer that his fall will likely never happen, but he's the key
Trump is nothing if not ready to sacrifice anyone and anything in order to save his own ass and the single most important thing that could happen right now is someone convincing him that the biggest driver of his unpopularity is not just Bovino and Noem but Stephen Miller personally
Anyone can stand up, at any time, for what is right.
i have been reading Tom Ricks’ “Fighting the Good War” which is a military analysis of the civil rights movement, and one thing that comes abundantly across is that movement leaders and ordinary people made it a practice to refuse to fall into despair and cynicism.
You have to block them immediately. The full nuclear. They are only here to make folks angry, and that can’t happen if we lock them out.
No, Amazon Studios, you left something unfinished.
Pick it back up where you paused.
Start Season 4 of The Wheel of Time.
The audience is still here. Waiting.

Group photo of cast members from The Wheel of Time standing on a stone structure outdoors in Morocco after wrapping filming for season two. In the top row, from left to right, are Dónal Finn, Madeleine Madden, Ceara Coveney, Zoë Robins, and Marcus Rutherford, standing close together and smiling. Several of them hold bouquets of red and white flowers. In the bottom row, Josha Stradowski and Fares Fares sit in front of the group, smiling toward the camera. The cast wear casual and costume-adjacent clothing, with a bright sky and desert landscape in the background.
we need to get the band back together ❤️ 📖 📺 🤞
For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.
The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
The fact that The Wheel of Time doesn't have as much of a following as Game of Thrones used to have in it's prime is baffling to me. This series is genuinely amazing.
This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.
It would take a two-word amendment to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to subject ICE agents and other federal law enforcement officers to the same liability for constitutional violations that local and state officers currently face.
If Congress actually cared about what it's seeing, it could pass that overnight.
AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.
