It's a full moon tonight. For a while, I had been trying to do a #werewolf drawing for the occasion every month, but eventually I forgot. Here's some of my favorites.

I suspect the MAGA government decided to launch all these Bluesky accounts tonight to try to bait people in advance of No Kings.

These people have incurable 4chan brain and this is how they operate.

Block them. Do not engage. Do not give them what they want.

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…

Getting Pelletier pardoned was like pulling teeth, but at least that
happened

So the president of the United States plans to meet with Putin in Hungary, and when a reporter asked where that plan came from, this was the reply of the United States government www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

In response to HuffPost’s query about who suggested Budapest, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt responded, “Your mom did,” and White House communications director Steven Cheung replied: “Your mom.”

Well thankfully he's committing crimes in blue states where president pardons don't apply.

The problem is, the golden age of the Simpsons is so good, I'd have to design a rubric to figure this out.

I'm going through them now and trying to figure out which Treehouse of Horror is the best all around episode; best wraparound story, best segments, best couch gag, etc.

Learned that an anonymous outside expert on submersibles did an interview with the OceanGate Titan investigation, and they released a transcript, with all the names redacted. The first line of his first answer? "I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic."

Accidentally got insulation foam on my favorite jacket and had to use nail polish remover on it, hopefully it works, but the smell made my throat feel like I chugged cheap whiskey

Americans have always been like this, huh?

Marie McGowan, 89, has died 3 years after a brutal assault during which she was put headfirst into a rubbish bin. Her attacker, Alex Bailey, believed she was "a man dressed as a woman."

This is the world the transphobes are creating "to protect women."

RIP Marie. share.google/PFaI5YTh9tBw...

I used to get up at 5:30 am everyday for years and never acclimated to it. The worst are the chatter boxes on the phone on the bus or the ones that insist on a good morning.

If this illegitimate SCOTUS as proven anything with the probable gutting of the VRA, it's that if Roe had be codified into law, that wouldn't have saved it from these unelected partisan hacks on the Robert's Court.

When this came out I was in college and had to drive two hours to the only theatre that was playing it to see it. I did that twice. The movie is great.

It's performative, but that's the point. It's to get the disengaged engaged and if people were really concerned about them being ineffective, they could use it as an opportunity to build community efforts with their neighbors.

JWMC (Artist) @jwmcartist.bsky.social · 2d

While I get people calling No Kings performative, that's the point. "It's a parade," good that will get families and seniors out in numbers to send a message to the politically tuned out. People should be out there using it as an opportunity to build community with people you wouldn't ordinarily.

Johnson: "We call it the Hate America Rally that will happen Saturday. Let's see who shows up for that. I bet you you'll see Hamas supporters, I bet you'll see antifa types, I bet you'll see Marxists on full display, people who don't want to stand and defend the foundational truths of this republic"

This is the result of a lot of people pretending racism is one of the greatest taboos in our culture while failing to address racism substantively. People are appalled by the idea of being called racist while being totally committed to upholding racism throughout society.

Every time a Democrat gets caught on tape saying like “Some Trump voters are racist” we have a national scandal and JD Vance demands an entirely new kind of apology and meanwhile every Republican group chat is like “Good morning fellow SS members. Who’s ready to respect Hitler today?”

Among white liberals it's probably "they were nice to me" bias. Because they weren't the ones being called slurs. I have been under no illusions, because I've been called the R and F-slur by these people since high school.
