Remember folks. The original bluesky ethos by us bluesky elders (apparently I count?) is block and move on.

Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights.
Block, and move on.

This is what made this site unpalatable to the right early on, and we can continue to make it unpalatable to them.

twice as big, because #5 * 2 = #10
there will also be an ~18' tall statue of liberty torch at the head of the NYC march tomorrow. #NoKings

If you live in #Birmingham #Alabama and are so inclined come to the #NoKings rally this Saturday. Make your voice heard — clearly, loudly, peaceably — with millions others around the nation and world.

it also really gives away the claim that "we're going after the violent criminals" when DHS is making a big deal about nabbing a ... police officer.
Excited to inform you all that the Department of Homeland Security is currently attempting to ratio me (and failing, as of more than two hours later).

With a heavy sigh, I repeat: bring back professionalism. For the love of god. You're running comms for the government of the USA. Act like it.

“To Mayor Adams, why do you continue to bend the knee?“ asks State Senator Brad Hoylman-Sigal. “We should not be pausing the busway. We should not be stopping the busway. We should be in court right now fighting for the busway.“
thank you for saving hands, however ungrateful!!

Federal judge denies LAPD emergency motion to let officers to use force against press during #NoKings protest on Saturday.

I’m hearing, unconfirmed, City Council unanimously ordered City Attorney to withdraw motion anyway. Thank you! Much needed oversight!

oh, i am so sorry! we've all come down with one, here. it's just awful. i hope baby feels better soon.
i can confirm there is no stationary stage or moving truck. peds only, no rallies.
within the march, looks like. "THIS IS JUST ONE SMALL GROUP IN THE MAIN PROTEST – NOT A SEPARATE PROTEST. RSVP HERE IF YOU WANT TO JOIN THIS PERFORMANCE GROUP. THE SAME RULES OF NO WEAPONS AND NO VIOLENCE APPLY!"

I was commissioned to make a zine for the No Kings 2 protest on Saturday Oct 18th!

If you wonder “what can I do?” this zine is for you. It’s packed with things that you can do from wearing a “no ICE” pin to organizing a visibility brigade with your friends.
