Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

Any fashion coming from a Brand is based off of #dragrace the year before.

@rupauldragrace.bsky.social UK s6 - Lill and Actavia as Princess Diana lip sync to Time Warp is so iconic.

An analysis of the top 100 trending TikTok videos under #mentalhealthtips finds 52 contain misinformation, including misused language and quick-fix methods (The Guardian)

PSA- all humans should have to use headphones in public spaces.

My JOMO has really taken over.

-video when it’s happening
-put your body on the line
-donate to legislators who are actively fighting this
-continue to bring awareness online

WHAT ELSE have other been doing? What are all the ideas?

What else can we do against these ICE kidnappings?

-know your rights
-volunteer and donate to organizations that are helping to reach others about their rights and are doing neighborhood watch and alerts
……

Have zero focus today.

Realized that road trips activate all the road trip songs you had memorized on road trips 20 years ago.

WATCH: “You’re saying you revere a time when their ancestors were in bondage.”

In NC, @davidjoy.bsky.social powerfully explains why it’s wrong to remove a “compromise plaque” without public input, and why revering the confederacy is offensive.

About to speak in front of LA’s most talented musicians and heads of music about getting productions to Stay in LA. Thank you Evergreen Studios and Encompass Creative Music.

What’s the next word above greedflation? Glutflation? Pigflation?

I’m a small investor and YTD I’ve lost over 25% of my portfolio. This isn’t about the market, paybacks or the people. Just corruption. #tariffs

Beautiful works

The people who work in used bookstores are to be cherished.

Our @stayinla.bsky.social rally is shaping up to be a great day for our industry and community. There’s no place like home. Bring productions back!

Thank gawd you figured out how to prompt AI to make all the same ads I continue to ignore.

Phew. Thought we were really gonna misuse this tool.

I’m the 7th libra to enter this establishment tonight. - charismatic door guy

Seems like the only goal now days is to sell to a mega-brand. Depressing.

Just reached out to Delta letting them know I am going to cancel my three upcoming flights. No one should be flying under these conditions. (One of the many things screwing over the public.)

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand.

It’s so cool that my 7th grade history vocabulary is being played out again in my 40s. Everyone repeat after me:
Carpetbagging
Yellow Journalism
Robber Baron
Snake Oil
Price Gouging

Goes nicely with the everlasting terms:
Gerrymandering
Filibustering

Maybe I should just change careers to become a general contractor.

Just feels like all the bad guys are winning endlessly right now.

Aghast at how many older white women are wearing red, white, and blue “patriot” outfits at JFK.
