Don’t give me that doomer shit, the fascists are still outnumbered. Don’t forget that. Ever.

Suppose I had a week to spend travelling around #Wyoming and I wanted to see a lot of #sauropod #fossils. Apart from the Wyoming Dinosaur Center and UWGM, where should I visit? (Let's assume for now that I can arrange collections access.)

Please boost for coverage!

Dean Phillips has shown himself to be nothing more than a Trump racist, HE KNEW #POTUS wouldn't be on the ballot in NH when the #DNC made it clear that 2024 first primary would start in SC where the state is more diverse where black voters helped Biden received the most votes in 2020 primary Phillips basically said FUCK black voters NH is 95% white that benefit me So this is why Biden was not on the ballot but won overwhelmingly with the write-in vote sending a clear message to Dean to FUCKOFF:

It's #BikeNite again this Friday at 4pm Pacific time!

Reply with any questions you'd like me to add to the discussion on Friday!

We have about 6-7 questions right now but could use more to keep the queue from getting empty.

We will try something new this time: add the hashtag BikeNitePQ to your question so that it's easier to find proposed questions if there's a lot of BikeNite activity.

(Alternatively, if you know of a Mastodon client that makes it easier to see discussions and unread mentions, let me know - maybe the "questions getting lost" issue can be addressed on the client side?)

Hi @Gargron ! Just a heads up. I'm getting slammed by trolls today, more than usual.

Someone sent me this from Stux:

Texas governor Greg Abbott is making secessionist noises at Biden over the border again because the SCOTUS bopped him on the nose very gently and making hysterical, racist threats is all the GOP does anymore.

It'll probably play well with GOP voters. Biden will probably ignore it. But at some point, federal troops will have to be deployed down here.

Go Taylor!

Taylor Swift is driving voter registration, and conservatives are terrified

As long as I live, I will never forgive Susan Collins for both allowing Brett Kavanaugh to become a Supreme Court Justice, and not voting to convict Donald Trump because she felt he’d learned his lesson.

People ask me why I say Patreon are evil and why I refuse to support people via Patreon...

Authoritarianism uses democracy to take power and then hold it by force. See Hitler, Mussolini, Erdogan and Trump.

Democracy or criminal mafia state?

Americans have a choice and need to show up.

We’re a long ways from a simpler time.

"Fascism is on the ballot. And I think that was clear in New Hampshire. …

We need to see how the movement is growing, how the movement is mutating, how it’s taking the original fear of Islam that it began with and adding more and more fears, and then combining them so that they’re indistinguishable in the mind of the Trump voter."

"The story of the Moderna vaccine isn't one of a company taking huge gambles with shareholder dollars. It's the story of the US government giving billions and billions of dollars to a private firm, which will now *charge* the US government – and the American people – a 4,460% markup on the resulting medicine." https://pluralistic.net/2023/01/25/nationalize-moderna/#herd-immunity #covid

Good!

"The #Senate Foreign Relations Committee advanced legislation Wednesday to allow the U.S. to seize frozen #Russia assets to pay for #Ukraine’s reconstruction.

The top Democrat and Republican on the panel were confident that Senate leadership viewed the legislation, called the REPO Act, as a priority for passage amid stalled efforts to deliver on further assistance for Ukraine" https://thehill.com/policy/international/4426738-seize-russian-assets-ukraine-senate/

Yet they’re voting for pro-forced birth candidates

According to NBC News Exit Poll results, 67% of New Hampshire Republican primary voters said they would oppose a federal law banning most or all #abortions nationwide. Just 27% said they would favor such a ban.
