Walking that fine line between enough caffeine to do the things and put words in sentences but not so much I need a nap.

She gets all the flowers. I mean ALL of them. If we see her, we immediately have to give her flowers.

Jewish law & Bible scholarship don't think the word in the 10 Commandments for "steal" is about, like, shoplifting.

Look at eg Genesis 40:15, Exodus 21:16 , Deuteronomy 24:7--

the commandment is not to steal people. Don't kidnap.

Though you shouldn't need the Bible to teach you that. #AbolishICE

Um. Hi PA? @governor.pa.gov why aren’t we in this?

Our federal government has broken the trust and it is time for you to stand up.

I haven’t been as active of late because of everything. In personal news, my son is having a brain MRI on the 28th and I’m terrified.

I no longer believe that the words illegal/legal, moral/immoral, or ethical/unethical have any meaning in the United States.

A mossberg maverick 88 12 gauge for my first. There are much nicer guns but that should do me unless I find a new special interest….a step up would be a mossberg 500 series.

I want a pump action.

If I had money and wanted a semi automatic, I’d spring for a Beretta.

I’ve done my research on what I need and want in a shotgun. Now I just have to go buy one. And learn to shoot it properly.

Grew up military with deep roots in Texas and have never shot a gun. That’s all about to change.

Fellow white people, this isn't hard. Not everything has to be for us.

Not Your Negress @notyournegro.blacksky.app · 2d

If a post says “Black sky” or “Black people” only and you aren’t Black there’s zero reason to respond other than being purposely antagonistic. It’s not cute or funny. It’s disrespectful and tone deaf. Learn to respect boundaries and mind your business!!!

SWIIRL @thatonegirlkendra.blacksky.app · 2d

It is a public site, and I publicly said I only wanted Black opinions, and here you come with your lily white skin. Again, KNOWINGLY UNWANTED. You're not going to convince me I'm wrong here. I don't mind being a bitch.

I really wish I could filter all the trending topics so I don’t have to hear about a single sportsball event by mistake. I also would love to never ever read a thing about that mid white lady taylor. She’s not that great and also a media whore.

See, ONLY a white man could do this.

If a Black man did this, he’d likely be tackled and kidnapped.

This is why we keep saying white people CAN FIX THIS if y’all want.

People keep talking about “after” the fascists are purged, as if there are enough stable habitable years left to pick up the pieces.

Autism $peaks is the largest and most popular Autism organization (among allistics), who continues to be 100% in support of ABA. They have lobbyists who push ABA as the “gold standard Autism treatment.” It utilizes same practices as “conversion therapy,” which is currently banned in 28 countries.

Mattslew Batberg-Mothfit (any/all) @mbrobergmoffitt.bsky.social · 3d

ABA (Applied Behavioral Analysis) is the “gold standard” of “treatment” for Autism, and was created by the person as “Conversion therapy” (see Lovaas) with similar techniques and goals. It’s torture that continues to have widespread support and acceptance.

God @thegodpodcast.com · 3d

"Conversion therapy" is a polite name for something that isn’t conversion and isn’t therapy. It’s abuse.

Hey if you want to keep track of what's happening in Chicago right now this is a really good account to follow

unraveled @unraveledpress.com · 6d

Happening now: we're at the Broadview ICE facility outside Chicago.

CCSO + Broadview police are telling protesters + press they can't stand on the west side of 25th Street for any reason.

We asked what the precise public safety issue is. They just said they're anticipating cars coming through.

I’m sorry? They aren’t going to pay the military?! What kind of stupid ass coup is this?

Doc B does doom @pagingdocb.bsky.social · 6d

It’s about parents “mourning” the child in their heads and not accepting the child they have. People hate and fear what they cannot control and don’t understand and autistics are often uncontrollable and not interested in social norms.
My autistic life is great though so long as I avoid the normies

Trump has been illegally bombing boats off the coast of Venezuela.

Tim Kaine and Adam Schiff forced a vote on reasserting Congress's role over war powers and ending this reckless
warmongering.

It failed 48-51.

Murkowski and Paul voted yes.

Fetterman voted no.

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second.

We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

Nearly every horror in U.S. politics right now can be traced to the racist white backlash in response to the rest of us electing this Black man president.

This feels super ableist and equates disability with immorality. I generally love your posts and so I doubt you mean to suggest that.
