It’s going to be an interesting test case to see if an entire administration can govern for four years based entirely on vibes and (literal) shitposting. Honestly nothing else. Nothing to improve the economy, quality of life or national safety. Entirely focused on dicking around on twitter.
If we just disabled every social media account with The Joker as their profile pic, I feel like we could almost single-handedly wipe out internet trolls.
Funnily enough, it’s made out of foam.
Threads keeps prompting me too look at it and it’s actual trash and I’m like… are these even real people or is it like thousands of Russian bots just arguing with each other?
I keep forgetting that I have BlueSky and I can use it.
1. Alert, and please share widely. A lawyer at the ACLU has asked me to inform my transgender readers that they should NOT be applying for passports right now - the state department has not issued guidance to comply with the court order and they are urgently trying to get them to do so.

If “Republic”-ans like having a king so much, perhaps they should start calling themselves something different.
No.
This explains why I always kill at this game.
Beautiful!
Wellness influencers, if the most interesting thing about you is the foods you don’t eat, you need a better hobby.

im beginning to think its a bad idea for america to antagonize its allies while at the same time completely isolating us from the rest of the world both economically and militarily for no real reason and with no stated goal
Ooh, thank you!
Did my nails w/real nail polish for the first time in like 10 years like “why did I stop doing my nails…?” but now I’m sitting here unable to multitask until they dry and I’m DYINGGGG. #justadhdthings
I haven’t really been to Threads much since I joined BlueSky, but I looked at it a few times this week and it seems to be largely overrun by like, MAGA bots or something? Anyone else observing this?
Abortion wasn’t a divisive political issue until GOP operatives figured out they could spin it to get just enough votes to elect Reagan. Trump did the same thing with trans and NB folk. Don’t be a sucker.
i bet if you’re root beer it’s like the highest possible honor to go into a root beer float, it’s like getting a root beer knighthood
RFK jr. : “I could out-sperm all of these young whippersnappers”. -snaps the neck of an elephant seal
RFK Jr sounds like what one single dying sperm would sound like if it had a voice
Is… God…I hate to even ask, but… is RFK Jr 68 years old? Is this just like the world’s creepiest back door brag?

Conservative commenters complaining about public art because “that money could be used to [insert some kind of public good that conservatives would never, ever spend money on, even if there were no money spent on public art].”
lol so true. It’s not that hard to predict.
Sorry for the thousand and one posts, I’m just having my daily morning coffee + social media annoyance.
I’m exhausted of fellow lefties telling each other “don’t pay attention to X thing that DT did, because it’s a distraction from Y thing that DT did.”
My dudes. He means *all* of it.
Pick the parts you can help stop/fix and do your best.
Hard agree on this. Perfect super hero movie.
