It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.
Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.
Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.
A screenshot of a text excerpt from a court proceeding, showing a conversation between Judge Reyes and Jason C. Lynch about an executive order that defines “sex” strictly as male or female. Judge Reyes challenges this definition, noting that there are roughly 30 different intersex variations and citing examples such as XXX chromosomes, androgen insensitivity, and five-alpha reductase deficiency. Judge Reyes emphasizes that not everyone fits neatly into an XX or XY pattern, concluding that the executive order’s premise—that there are only two sexes—is biologically incorrect.
Trump's lawyers are absolutely flailing in the courts right now
I use them as curtains outside in my courtyard
Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post would not run this ad. This is the power of oligarchy.

are the democrats....alive?
A black-and-white photograph of a protest scene. Two individuals stand prominently in the foreground, holding signs. One sign reads, “4 THE WEALTHY BY THE WEALTHY,” while another partially visible sign says “STOP.” The crowd in the background is engaged, with additional signs visible. Trees and an overcast sky fill the backdrop, creating a peaceful yet determined atmosphere.

An older woman wearing a wide-brimmed hat sits on a park bench reading aloud from a book titled “Great American Speeches” to another person seated beside her. Two protest signs are displayed: one reads “GRANDMA READS HISTORY,” and the other says “WANTED: 2 U.S. SENATORS WITH SPINES.” The scene is set in a peaceful park with trees, benches, and a fence visible in the background, captured in black-and-white photography.
If I ever had a photo go viral, I’d beg it be this one. 💙

I’m back, bitchez!
sometimes a family is two fucked-up kids, a former widow, a man who abandoned his marriage to be gay at sea, just some chill guy, the literal dread pyrate blackbeard, and a woman with a pet leopard and an eyepatch. and i think that’s beautiful. 🫶
Ok man, I’ll tell them
I see a lot of so called Christians posting absolutely hateful rhetoric, diametrically opposite of Christlike behavior. Get your shit together. Stop letting politics poison your mind, or stop calling yourself Christian.
FULL STOP.
We know who we are. They will not change us. We will outlast and this will end.
The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire
Legendary DP of Our Flag Mike Berlucchi lost his home in the Altadena fire. If you feel so inclined, he can be supported here 💜🏴☠️🦄
Jackie opens the note at her table. It reads: “Today.” She passes it to Oluwande who puts it in Zheng’s hands at the roulette wheel.
Eeeeeee
Aaaa I love this pic of us — we all look extra unhinged. ♥️👹♥️
“Pff. You didn’t even know what retirement was ya twat.” Izzy’s voice, clear as day. Ed looks up quickly. No one is there.
tweet from @nick_field90: “One last gift from Jimmy Carter, all flags will be at half-staff on Inauguration Day” plus a screenshot from wikipedia reading “The flag should fly at half-staff for 30 days at all federal buildings, grounds, and naval vessels throughout the United States and its territories and possessions after the death of the president or a former president.”
well played, sir. well played.
Drawing of Applejack, played by Kevin Bacon, looking handsome and sparkly. He says "Finished cleaning those rooms for you, Mr. Stede." Stede, wearing little glasses, replies "Ah, thank you, Applejack!" Ed is in the background ready to fight, his eyes glowing red, about to shoot laser beams at Applejack's head, presumably to explode it.
doing some really important fanart over here #ofmd
Book dealer catalogue with an image of ships
Still from hit show Our Flag Means Death showing the Gentleman Pirate asleep with a nightcap under a framed version of the same engraved book illustration.
Saturday Storytime?
@roximonoxide.bsky.social requested I share this Pirate Twitter thread!
I desperately wanted to identify the engraving by Stede Bonnet's bed on the Revenge, but nothing at #NewberryLibrary fit. Then THIS appeared in a book dealer catalogue! #ofmd @david-jenkins.bsky.social 1/7
merry Christmas for those who celebrate #gentlebeard
"You will be visited by three spirits."
The three spirits:
A screengrab of Stede Bonnet staring intently at Oluwande Boodhari who is smiling with side eyes, text next to Oluwande reads "David feeding his baby or some shit" text reads above Stede "us waiting his next smau update"
1775. An editor comes into work on Christmas eve to find a manuscript on his desk. The title: A HISTORY OF PYRATES by Charles Johnson. (We have no budget so we’ll say the editor is played by Michael Stuhlbarg).
Baby Jenks giving us s3 for Xmas 😭 fuck capitalism, fuck zaslav, you just tell this beautiful story to us like Stede reciting Pinocchio, Chaos King. 🙌
