My heroes today are the citizens of Venice, Italy, who are telling Jeff Bezos the truth during his wedding.

Ten years ago today, the Supreme Court made it possible for couples like Brad and me to marry in every corner of this country. It was a moment we never thought we’d live to see and one we’ll never take for granted. Now, we must stay vigilant to ensure that right is never taken away. Love is love. Then, now, and always.

In the last five years, we've gone from "employees will never have to go into an office" to "employees need to be in the office because creative and innovative work can only be done face-to-face between humans" to "lol we don't need humans"

Dem leaders are supporting a war powers resolution that may actually give Trump more power. https://theintercept.com/2025/06/25/democrats-war-powers-resolutions-trump-israel-iran/
War Powers Resolution From House Democratic Leaders May Not Limit Trump’s War Powers

In an apparent nod to Israel, some Democrats want to give Trump power to defend “an ally or partner of the United States from imminent attack.”

Billionaires hoard wealth and spend it in wasteful, unnecessary ways like vast mansions, super yachts and private jets.

We could instead end poverty, phase out fossil fuels and provide education and healthcare for everyone.

Hello Fedi friends!

My decision to upload the Fedi promo video to YouTube 2 weeks ago was really controversial.

@randahl posted a nice message about the video & encouraged his followers to like / comment on it so the YouTube algorithm would serve it to more people. He was inundated by hostile comments for days. Sorry Randahl!

Well, exhibit A of why this was a good decision in hindsight (see pic).

How else are people going to hear about the Fediverse?

As always, thanks for the support ❤️

PSA: Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr., so Scientific American published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new administration.

@netblocks Setting a baseball stadium on fire is not protesting - it's rioting.
Show threadArtemis6d ago

@scotty86 Protesting without rioting, especially under those conditions, is just bad PR work. It pleases those at the top and changes no damn thing.

@apollon Wrong, this type of escalation is exactly what they want. Now they can raise their law and order clownery to the next level.

@scotty86 Would've done that anyway. You don't gotta give capital an excuse because they can just manufacture it.

@scotty86 @netblocks Generally spoken, people don't do that kind of protesting unless they have been abused, or what happens too, some scumbags from the government or secret police do this to make the protesters look like criminals.
Anyway, not a nice situation atm.
