Philadelphia sheriff Rochelle Bilal:
“No law enforcement professional wears a mask…No law enforcement professional shoots at a moving vehicle.
“What Trump’s private army is doing…is not only against legal law, but moral law.”
Vows to arrest agents on site who commit crimes.
New: we've obtained material explaining how an ICE surveillance system, called Webloc, works. Draw shape on a map, see all phones available there, follow them home. All without warrant

We need to build a movement to have maybe a 50/50 chance of stopping full fascism. The path is to unite over the realization that the billionaires are the enemy... this is a life-or-death class war. Here's a piece I wrote:

In this instance, standing up against and defying the United States of America is the morally, geopolitically, and strategically right decision.
Unlike the Maga-Maple Conservatives I don't feed coffee and donuts to trolls.
Especially when they show up to harass peaceful protesters at the Russian Embassy.

A screenshot of Maggie Smith's "Good Bones" Life is short, though I keep this from my children. Life is short, and I’ve shortened mine in a thousand delicious, ill-advised ways, a thousand deliciously ill-advised ways I’ll keep from my children. The world is at least fifty percent terrible, and that’s a conservative estimate, though I keep this from my children. For every bird there is a stone thrown at a bird. For every loved child, a child broken, bagged, sunk in a lake. Life is short and the world is at least half terrible, and for every kind stranger, there is one who would break you, though I keep this from my children. I am trying to sell them the world. Any decent realtor, walking you through a real shithole, chirps on about good bones: This place could be beautiful, right? You could make this place beautiful.

Your annual reminder that Dr. King believed in guaranteed universal basic income that gave all people a dignified life, guaranteed housing for all, guaranteed access to a high quality education, and said that “no one should be forced to live in poverty while others live in luxury.”

I feel like videogames actually do provide a pretty accurate representation of real life right now because a lot of videogames are like “THE WORLD IS ENDING” and then you just collect herbs and pretend nothing is wrong
Math problem. I have three apples and am traveling towards you at 17mph. It's not really a problem, more of a warning. Apple time, bitches.
This is amazing. I want one!
Agree. On a related note, Sucky People Will Be Blocked could be a handy username. Then again, it might be bait.
It really is, isn’t it? I’m loving Bluesky for this reason. So far, my bubble is a collection of lovely people.

@graygay.bsky.social sorry for hijacking your beautiful thread with our peri issues. But also kind of not, so how about I just thank you for connecting all of us! 💛
Yes, I take it too, except mine’s all month, 200mg before bed. Was never offered cyclical and still am not clear on if one approach is better for me than the other.
Oh my God, yes. When it started for me in earnest in 2019, all my GP and gyno could offer was “you should get an IUD. This can go on for 10 years.” My brain couldn’t decide whether to burst into tears or flip a table.
It’s so damn freeing.
Yes!!! I’ve also let my hair go natural and am fully embracing what I like to think of as my hot crone years. Fuck ‘em if they can’t appreciate it.
I’m a walking collection of them. Some good, some bad, some that seem to have risen from the fiery depths of hell.
Haha nobody is, really! Though there are positives, like the sudden loss of an ability to give a shit about unimportant or unfun things.
You are a goddess! We are so underrepresented in the health care system. I’ve been dealing with serious peri for five years and my GP still just kinda shrugs… she relies on me to do the homework and ask for what I want.
Have you read Menopacalypse by Amanda Thebes? GREAT resource.
I built a feed for people who struggle with perimenopause symptoms - you are not alone - let's share our stories to help each other - use "perimenopause" to add to the feed.
Thank you for sharing the feed ♡

From a mental health standpoint, people being funny at me today is right up there with pharmaceuticals, bio-identical hormones, work-life balance, biweekly therapy and chocolate-covered almonds.
Did he? Find himself, I mean? They’re often underwhelmed by the result.
I also tell people that he went to live on a farm and gets to play with all the other ex-husbands. Forever.
