I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.

I got on @bluesky yesterday wanting to troll and have a good time. After about 20 minutes, I had to delete said account. They are disgusting!
Mostly porn, trans porn, and just. I had to delete that account and wash my eyes.

Solidarity!! Last week, Indiana University fired the director of student media & halted print on the Indiana Daily Student newspaper. Yesterday, Purdue’s student paper printed the banned edition & drove two hours to deliver it. Incredible www.heraldtimesonline.com/story/news/l...

Purdue student journalists deliver special 'solidarity' newspaper to IU Bloomington campus

The special edition blasted across town features columns from IDS and Exponent editors, alongside QR codes to support both student papers.

Well this might be my favorite sign from the massive DC #nokings

Hasan: The great irony is of course that Donald Trump is the son of an immigrant. The grandson of an immigrant and married to an immigrant. In fact two of his three wives were immigrants, proving yet again that immigrants will do the jobs that even Americans are not willing to do.

In case it is not clear, people in the US on work visas have been advised by immigration law firms to avoid participating in protests, observing them, even being near any of them. If you encourage me to go to a protest, I am going to ignore you.

Excuse me: bb turtles

A human hand, presumably regular sized, as in not some inhuman giant hand or anything, just a regular normal hand, and in it is held three baby turtles OMG they are so cute they aren't even as wide as a single finger! Just tiny little guys! Can you believe it??? They look very sincere and polite I wish I could feed them little leaves or other turtle food. They are adorable and you love them. 🔫👀 Say you love them. Say it.

Block fascists. There's no reasoning or arguing with them, you might as well debate with spoiled leftovers. Don't let them bait you. Block fast, block often, block fascists. Let their accounts mummify.

US Government accounts have arrived on Bluesky.

Block on sight.

Protect your digital space.

Be aware that the DHS account in particular is known to quote dunk on regular people to encourage their followers to harass them.

The detach quote function will come in very handy here…
