spoke to a man who kicked off a city council meeting in Iowa with an invocation to Satan. “I think we're seeing you know a big shift in our politics. I think we've seen a rise of Christian nationalism in this country [...] and I find that highly troubling."

I categorize bringing a dog to a farmers market choosing to make your decision someone else's problem.

They're usually pretty narrow aisles and not everyone wants to interact with your dog.

Mike Revenant Spookyvich (he/him) @msimonovich.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Hot take: I love your dog. But if it's not a service animal (as opposed to an emotional support animal) or in a bag you're carrying, it has no place at a street fair, farmers market, or any other large gathering.

Become so familiar with these words, so comfortable with them, that when you are confronted with the everyday evil of a shitty man, you are prepared to use your unearned privilege to call him to account. Go forth and build a better world. That starts with doing the dishes. Fin

Some unintended consequences I suspect the rise of AI agents will create: 1. Restaurants that only take reservations by hand written letter, or more likely, don't take them at all. 2. Gigs where you can only buy tickets in person. 3. Businesses that operate without websites.

If you're a Dem who thinks you'll gain something by going anti-trans, look at Gallup's "most important problem" and Fox News' "most important issue" polling and see where trans issues rank. Whoever told you going anti-trans is a savvy or necessary move spends too much time on X and should be fired.
Gallup polling. "LGBTQ rights" moves between 0 and 1%.Fox news polling. Wokeness/transgender issues at 0%.

Okay, all, here’s what’s wrong with discourse around bicycling helmets and safety. The cops say, “The preliminary investigation revealed that [the bicyclist] was riding an e-bike, and wearing a helmet and highly-visible yellow shirt, when she was struck head on by a Jeep Wrangler.”

Every single strike is for all of us, union and non union. Every single striker is risking their income and livelihood to insist that working people deserve dignity and respect and livable wages.

400 library workers begin their strike Monday after endless months of trying to negotiate with management. Already the anti-union propaganda machine is calling the library workers entitled. The LIBRARY workers. You don't staff the desk at the free stuff store because you're greedy.
