Elly @ellyraying.bsky.social · 09/04/2026And so arrives draft preparedness for the US, interesting how that lands within weeks of trump saying he was willing to sacrifice US citizens for his warmongering. I'm in the UK and worry about my 3 boys future choices, about who they may be forced to fight or defend against. Not the US I hope. 000

Elly @ellyraying.bsky.social · 31/12/2025(cont'd).... an ever growing army of man boys crying because they think all women should be their moms, all the while the rich get richer whilst convincing the poor it's all the migrants fault. Fucked. 2026... Can I have a stasis chamber please! 000
Elly @ellyraying.bsky.social · 31/12/2025Well, it's New year's Eve and I can honestly say this has been a fucking horrible year, in a single year of the Trump Putin dark comedy duo we've managed to start the next arms race, job loss increases due to AI, crippling cost of living,..... 000
Elly @ellyraying.bsky.social · 11/11/2025Looking for feedback from any US peeps as I'll admit to some confusion. Do you guys have public libraries, public parks, public schools etc that are free to use for all, that everyone pays for with taxes, for the good of the people and society? If so are they considered to be 'Commie' institutions? 010

Elly @ellyraying.bsky.social · 14/10/2025Interesting evening of watching The Stand with my son. Las Vegas and Flag looked so much more familiar now with Trump and MAGA than it used to. But no nukes here, no hand of god, no free zone, just the continual spread of intolerance, lies and manipulation across the world. The beast is born. 110
Elly @ellyraying.bsky.social · 12/10/2025I'm finding social media utterly drowning in trollish and bot based hatred. Even here, bluesky is falling fowl to it. I understand the psychology motivation, the societal shifts it causes. But the ultimate goal? There's no good end result here, civil war, dystopian control, it's all just shit. 010
Elly @ellyraying.bsky.social · 19/09/2025It feels like we're living through the crusades again. Extreme orthodox Christians dictating policy whilst pointing at Muslims claiming they're the problem. Can't we just agree that religion (and the Uber rich- because you know...hoarders) are the root of all our problems. 000
Elly @ellyraying.bsky.social · 31/08/2025Although the highlight of perimenopause and menopause in women was refreshing, its now moving into this weird patriarchal place.

Elly @ellyraying.bsky.social · 12/05/2025So ashamed of Starmer right now! Fully expect the Welsh government to follow suit. Nationalism is never good, it creates division, violence, reduces innovation and social improvements, and leads to a generational ignorance. All because someone drew a line on a map. This madness needs to end. 000

Elly @ellyraying.bsky.social · 27/04/2025Whilst I'm incredibly pro protest, I fail to see the rationale of mass protesting alongside groups that hold opposing viewpoints. Surely numbers at a protest are only valid if you have a shared grievance? 000

Elly @ellyraying.bsky.social · 19/04/2025Having spent way too much time on threads the last couple of days, just trying to balance my input from merely left rhetoric, I've noticed a trend, a word, repeated by the right MAGA hoard. Basically if they hear something they don't like, there's never discussion, there's just a retort of "retard". 100
