Just spent 10 minutes looking for the full set of the Pope rave. Unsuccessfully. But have to admit: it was almost luxurious to focus on something, anything, else.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.

I joined CT AG William Tong to announce a lawsuit filed by 25 states & DC over the Trump administration‘s refusal to release almost $6B in emergency funds so families won’t see SNAP benefits interrupted starting Nov. 1st. I am grateful to live in a state that fights for our residents at every level.
