It’s possible to be both anti-war/anti-U.S. imperialist AND recognize that Maduro is a violent dictator who murdered thousands of Venezuelans, stifled opposition, and destabilized Venezuela. These aren’t mutually exclusive positions to hold.
Let’s say Trump’s fascism continues to expand.

The only good I can see coming out of Senate Dems completely caving and conceding without any gains is that ACA premiums doubling will create the political capital necessary for single-payer or a legitimate public option.

Holy shit. Designed/drew the greatest merch design of my life and I can’t wait to share it with everyone once they’re printed. Some friends have seen it already but I haven’t shared it publicly yet. It’s hilarious and fun.

We had the best damn time with The Filthy Radicals in Canada! This buncha’ rascals are the best folks and we can’t wait to play with them again. Cheers to all the folks who came out and supported the shows! DIY music only survives if we support each other. We love Canada and can’t wait to come back!

Okay, I’m really bad at sharing stuff on Blue Sky that I share on other platforms so I’ve got some fun stuff to share.
1) Tour with Planet Smashers was incredibly rad, on all fronts.

Between DOJ “investigating” ActBlue and the FBI arresting a circuit court judge for “obstruction of justice”, fascism is escalating. Everything is going to get worse before it gets better in America. We need a general strike, NOW!

The other day, I had the tune and a few lines of a chorus for a new song in my head. Instead of just recording the one line in my phone and never coming back to it, I sat down and wrote the entire song. What I’m saying is that I deserve praise, friends 😂😂😂

Nice work, @laurajanegrace.bsky.social, the “Fuck Your Feelings, Let’s Go Brandon” is officially MELTING DOWN after your Bernie rally performance over the weekend. This is the punkest shit I have ever witnessed.

Okay, late night hot take. I don’t think a lot of the folks on the left who didn’t vote for Harris are actual anti-fascists. If they were, they would have used every mechanism available (especially the easiest one) to deny a fascists like Trump to take office.

So everyone else also struggling with everything happening right now? Like, yeah yeah, I know… the Fascists want us to be worn out and give into despair… but holy shit… it’s so hard not to!
I need to get out of the house and touch grass but we won’t have grass until like April at best 😩

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.
I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.

NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.
Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

Also, I’m legitimately terrified for my friends who are immigrants, 1st generation Americans, POC, trans/queer/marginalized in any other capacity. We need solidarity more than ever.
