Birds, books, balls (tennis ones) 🏳️‍🌈🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ Seems I’ve reached the singularity here having been named an AI bot and BlueMaga, neither of which will clean my cat’s litter boxes. Do with that what you will, lol.

Alexi since your are down today, Siri show me a blatant example of ongoing colonization. Oh here it is, and disgusting. White people we need to stop doing this to brown people, they will do the same to us.
I’ll skip to the final chapter, Paul Igrassia gets deported for not being white enough according to Stephen Miller. Miller is quoted as saying, ‘we don’t speak Spanish in this country, so how could this person have that last name’

I joke, last name is Italian, but he’s still getting deported
BREAKING: new racist Republican groupchat has been leaked to Politico featuring texts from Paul Ingrassia, Trump’s nominee to lead the Office of Special Counsel.

Ingrassia’s texts include vile pro-Nazi & racist messages targeting Black people, Chinese people, and Indian people.

“Halligan texted me yet again, for the first time in several days, insisting that our entire correspondence had been off the record.”
Seconded, and meant to post earlier. This and have binders of litigation ready to go to throw these heinous white supremacist thieves into jail. Bills to protect trans and all minorities including abortion rights, protect Palestine’s right to live free

Only these four will make me vote for you.
any democrat running for the presidency must promise to obliterate trump's ballroom. starting on day one. im serious.
omg!

"Demolition crews have begun tearing down part of the White House...

"Construction teams Monday were demolishing a portion of the East Wing, with a backhoe ripping through the structure..."

The text disappear, so it’s off the record, LOL. It’s 2025, I as a 60 yo know how to screenshot, or even take a pic of a screen. Idiots, just awful idiots
‘I have received a lot of your thoughts on the phone’. LOL. Translate bot gone awry

We built block city on rock and roll, LOL
No it’s not the obvious Maga profiles. It’s weird profiles that have been on here for awhile with followers and they all seem to have the emoji 🚫 in their profile. Like 🚫 MAGA. Seems another red flag to avoid
The Trump/Miller admin? I blocked them. Or the sleeper cells?
In light of the Trump/Miller admin being all in on Bluesky. And their proclivity for gotcha maneuvers. Heads up for possible gotcha dms and posts here on the Bluesky. Haven’t blocked them yet, annoyed I answered as the profile and pic are sus. The 🚫 seems the red flag for all

I am currently on a plane and as such am going to share a story about another time I was on a plane.

It was about 20 years ago and it was a fairly empty flight from NYC to LA. I had a row of three seats to myself; a young woman was alone in the three across the aisle. (This is not a meet-cute.) 1/
NYC has been an immigrant city from the start. It would fail as a city without them. New Yorkers know this, I can’t believe he’s running on this, he is Trump and wants white supremacy to reign. Disgusting.
Cuomo isn't running on the Democratic line, and he's praising Trump. Why is he still a Democrat at this point?
If I did Christmas cards, this would be my Christmas card this year. LOL
This is actually a perfect meme.

Send this to anyone, at any time, for any reason!

I am cry laughing so hard.

Purport to make an unqualified hack a federal prosecutor, don't be surprised when the unqualified hack does things an unqualified hack would do!
Oh nooooo, Lindsey Halligan, this is not how any of this works

Uh oh, you are going to get a text from Lindsey for reporting on a reporting of reporters article, LOL

What a farce this all is, thank you for connecting all the dots and making us smarter

You're a laughingstock, Halligan. You and those who hired you.
I’m going to maniacally laugh every time I think about…but, but disappearing messages 🤣

These people need to go back to kindergarten and start all over again

Wow, what a scope/article.

The Trump/Miller admin is just full of horrible mean dolts.
EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

Well, I wasn’t in the big cities, so you may be right about the restaurants, lol. That said, Argentina does not have quality labels or much of food safety besides the export business which relies on private entities.
Fun story about Argentina beef. It’s really good. But there are zero regulations there. On a trip there, ironically during his first inauguration. And the Americans with me wanted their beef rare or medium. The waiters had no idea what they were talking about. As it needs to be cooked thru.
🚨 ON AIR FORCE ONE: TRUMP SAYS US IS CONSIDERING BUYING BEEF FROM ARGENTINA

If you’re keeping track at home:

- We bailout Argentina for $40 billion
- They sell soybeans to China
- Our farmers get nothing & going bankrupt because of his tariff policies

Today in history, 1796: An editorial is published accusing presidential candidate Thomas Jefferson of having a sexual relationship with one of his slaves. The editorial was published under the pseudonym “Phocion,” and has often been attributed to Alexander Hamilton. /1
I have no kids, but I’ll be watching. Let’s increase these views. RIF, reading is fundamental
The first two episodes of the revival of Reading Rainbow have nearly 500,000 views each 🤯

Do you know how cool that is for literacy, for book joy?! We are all worthy of reading, we are all readers 💚

And NOW episode three is out! Take a look, it’s in a book 📚🌈🦋

Sorry you went through this. The left needs to realize that critiques make us better. There are no critiques on the right from the right which is how we know we will get through this. Then again there are far too many on the left that want an all white country.
Had to mute my first post tonight, guess I’ve leveled up higher in the Bluesky. It was a critique of Pritzker and the handling of Broadview.It brought out all the boys with

🚫 MAGA
🚫 Commies

In their profiles, calling me a Tankie. Seems sus

After yesterday, fun to ignore, because we got this.

I just finished reading Greg Olear's No Kings speech, and it's absolutely powerful and inspiring. Everyone should read it. Also, here's a clip of his speech. 👇👏

No on all except 5, though I’m waiting on more info for #1, trying to get a locals opinion. Otherwise feels like a public land grab.
