SO MUCH this whole thread and this in particular:

screenshot quoting Greg Pak: "Also, for the doomers & deactivists out there... I'm making this list not because I expect the current Democratic Party to fight for any of this, but because WE have to decide what WE'RE going to fight for, and we have the biggest chance to remake the party in 2026 than anyone's had in generations."

This article explains clearly a thing that infuriates me: people blame the Democrats or whoever else for shit the Republicans do. Put the blame where it belongs--on the people doing the thing. www.meditationsinanemergency.com/the-she-made...

screenshot of text excerpted from Rebecca Solnit's article "The She Made Him Do It Theory of Everything":

"In mainstream discourse, it's become standard to blame the excesses of the right on liberals, the left, feminists, Black Lives Matter, affirmative action, environmental protection, and BIPOC and LGBTQ people. It's a way that the right is granted masculine prerogatives and the left feminine responsibilities for the right's behavior. It's also routine to blame the Democratic Party for what the Republican Party does. The two parties are unconsciously regarded as akin to a husband and wife in a traditional marriage in which it's the job of the wife to placate and soothe the husband and help him realize his goals or be held responsible for his outbursts and outrages.
And in the same way the diverse population left of center is supposed to make nice to the right or be responsible for when the right goes wrong. These stories amount to "the left was so annoying about pronouns or liberals made people feel so guilty about plastic straws they had no choice but to get on board with the second coming of the Third Reich and the destruction of the planet." Behind these stories is the assumption that some people matter more than other people, and that we who matter less have to pander to those who matter more – conservatives when they are imagined as straight, as white, as male, as rural, as salt of the earth, as the real Americans, unlike us ethnic/ immigrant/ urban/ non-male/ non-straight people."

you guys. I got so angry and stressed out I was struggling to breathe. Well, that does no one any good. So I'm stress-baking carrot cake, and I found this carrot #carrotbutt

Good. The way those sniveling cowardly traitors treated President Zelenskyy was abhorrent, absolutely disgusting. I’m so ashamed. I hope Ukraine wins, and soon.

A lot of people saw Gwendoline Christie, which: absolutely! But I saw Frankie Adams in The Expanse.

Do not despair. The past can teach us how to make a better future.

Speaking of the value of joy and comfort, here is my little Murderbot shrine. I reread these regularly for deep comfort 📚

been seeing this everywhere, not sure who to credit

A black and white infographic cartoon with each statement illustrated with the appropriate image. It starts with a drawing of hands and the caption reads: why do we have hands? The answer statements read: Pat the kitty; give high five; holding the soup, soup for your family; punch the nazi

jfc the Democrats got played so bad. Trump and Zuckerberg initiated this ban years ago and recently got the Dems to sign on. Now here is TikTok’s landing page, and three generations of Americans will believe this absolute lie. Trying not to despair but it’s a bit uphill at the moment.

#quiltsky to make a border for this. Then I have no idea what I'll do next, probably take the dark green from inside the smaller compasses to make another border

Hi newskies! if you were never on Twitter, Bluesky takes getting used to. Have a profile pic and bio. These don't have to be real, just generally who you are. Also, click on the hashtag on the left vertical navigation and follow feeds you like. Here's a screenshot of some of mine. Talk with people!

I'm great except for, you know... everything. I'm so glad to see you here, I hope you're well. Follow some feeds you're interested in at bsky.app/feeds. The Discover feed is great too (here's a screenshot showing it). Generally, once you get a profile pic and talk to people, Bluesky is super fun 😀

Just finished this queen size quilt. It’s a Mariner’s Compass surrounded by Lemoyne stars. My math was off and I ran out of the background fabric so had to dig for scraps out of the trash (I wash, dry, and iron every quilt before it goes out) #quiltsky
