The #NoKings crowd in Fort Worth was probably twice as big as the Hand's Off protest from April. I'd say several thousand. I have no good shots of the crowd in the park or all the honking cars. But it was a festive and peaceful event.

Wow, #Missouri! #NoKings As I type this, Trump's voice-over god-mic is thanking Coinbase for sponsoring his little ego parade. Our sponsor is... us. And our crowds are ENORMOUS, unlike his. RE: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:keuzdβ¦
Google hat Android 16 in AOSP verΓΆffentlicht β jedoch ohne Quellcode fΓΌr aktuelle Pixel-GerΓ€te. Ohne Device Trees lΓ€sst sich AOSP nicht wie gewohnt auf Pixel-GerΓ€ten bauen. Das trifft die gesamte Custom-ROM-Community. Alles deutet darauf hin, dass das kein Versehen ist, sondern eine bewusste EinschrΓ€nkung von Google β eine klare SchwΓ€chung der Offenheit von Android.
A man who looked to be in his 40s was at our protest. He said he was out today because if his grandkids (who donβt yet exist) asked him where he was on this day, he could say he was at the #nokings #protests
Something about to go down in L.A. Big mobilization of LAPD, including armed mounted units and rolling in of the LRAD (Jessica Palmadessa is streaming from near both). Also hear a police copter but with a crowd this size, it's been around generally anyway.
They are prepared for a battle, so they will probably eventually find one, with the size of the crowd today.
Brandenburg hat geschafft woran Deutschland mit Hochdruck arbeitet. Alle Pullfaktoren fΓΌr Tourismus, Migration oder internationalem Austausch von FachkrΓ€ften wurden beseitigt. Als einziges Bundesland leided Brandengurg nicht mehr an illegalem ungeregeltem Massentourismus. Jetzt kann sich die Wirtschaft endlich auf ihre lokalen StΓ€rken konzentrieren: Das Einlegen von Gurken.

They keep using the same tactics as they did about #GazaGenocide. Make people believe "what you are watching is not real" "OURA TRUTH IS WHAT COUNTS" It's all so Orwellian
Als Teenager in den 90ern habe ich meine Oma zum ersten Mal gefragt, wie das denn war, damals, Nazizeit. Ich hatte irgendwie Angst zu fragen, aber sie hat einfach angefangen zu erzΓ€hlen, in einem Ernst, den ich bis dahin nicht von ihr kannte. Sie hat mir nicht alles erzΓ€hlt, aber schon in diesem ersten GesprΓ€ch fielen diese SΓ€tze: "Wir haben das irgendwann alle gewusst. Keiner kann erzΓ€hlen, dass er nichts gewusst hat." Und, vor allem: "Das darf nie wieder passieren."

I cannot overstate how important good signage is at these protests. If you keep getting caught with no sign or a hasty sign, now is the time to prep for the next protest. Put some time into it - believe me, people will show their appreciation. Press your family and friends to do the same.
So many older white liberals were raised in respectability politics and are terrified of speaking baldly. This is the NYT 'gotta hear both sides' effect. This is the overintellectualism of upper class liberals, wanting to 'learn all the facts and preserve neutrality'. They are afraid to speak truth and they are learning a painful lesson in their sideline complicity.
Seeing signage that calls a #fascist spade a fascist spade is so important for these reticent people to loosen up and let go of their fear of being 'biased'. We need people to pick a side and the people at protests that are displaying unequivocal denunciations are helping loosen up the minds of people who got rich and comfy in the white suburban 90s and still have cold feet about openly defying a dictator.
Signs are a great way for the protests to grow over time, as bystanders are drawn in by playful, incisive commentary. Its a great way to show that we can be simultaneously angry and have a sense of fun humanity. Its an open invitation to speak truth in a way that our society desperately respresses.
Lean into your craftiness. Learn a new artistic skill. Make it crass and cutting. Make it cutesy and playful. Make it showy and waterproof it. Be clever. Be incisive. Call out the bullshit in a relatable way.
I saw so many signs today that made me laugh and smile and grimace and churn and boil. I was selfishly basking in the compliments and had some great moments of #solidarity. That's truly what I felt today: solidarity with people from completely different backgrounds and that solidarity is so much easier with people who I know exactly where they stand. Complete strangers were much more friendly with me than they usually are because they knew where I stand.
A couple of my favorites: "Circle jerking is not a means of governance" "Imagine being more angry about diversity than dictatorship" "The only kings I want are drag kings"

I haven't been so appalled by content on Bluesky as I was last night. Dozens of replies explicitly celebrating attacks on civilians in Tel Aviv. If you've convinced yourself that attacking Israeli civilians is a good thing - you're no better than Netanyahu, and you are yourself a genocidal maniac.
To those citing polls of Israelis showing support for ethnic cleaning as justification for targeting Israeli civilians - there were also polls of Gazans showing support for the 7 Oct attacks. Neither justify targeting Israeli or Palestinian civilians. Advocate peace, not war crimes by either side.

I've been accused of using "AI" a few times recently, and I think I found out why β the fact is you will have to pry my em dashes from my cold, dead, probably still typing hands.
I think the people that claim any em-dashes have to be the work of AI have never actually used a word processor, let alone have never actually written anything of substance other than a comment on Reddit or a post on 4chan.
Word even will translate "---" into an em-dash. So will other software.
You can easily type an em dash on a Mac keyboard with the Option key.
On Windows I used to use "WinCompose" to easily insert an em dash.
Maybe I'm dating myself here (53) but when I was in high school and learning how to type we were taught there were three common types of dashes.
A "dash" (-). Used for hyphenating words.
An "en dash" (--). Used for a "series":
The 2nd World War occupied the World's consciousness between 1939--1945.
And an "em dash" (---). Used for various typographical purposes.
@gme @BernieDoesIt Yeah, the knowitall I quoted apparently can't tell a hyphen from an en dash, so joke's on them.
I admit em dashes may be stylistically over the top for a 500 character tweet or toot, but they've crept in from my other, longer writing. That's not an apology, just a clarification π
Funnily enough, I find that en and em dashes are more easily available on my (Android) phone keyboard than on physical computer keyboards. Ive had to setup my own shortcuts for them on my laptop.
@gme @BernieDoesIt Interesting. In Word, --- on a line by itself is translated to a section separator line going the whole page width. -- in the middle of a sentence with a letter directly after with no space becomes what I thought was an em-dash. Is it really just an en-dash? - vs β vs β It's hard to tell. From Word: β Well, dang: it's been an en-dash the whole time.

Just arrived downtown. It's packed. Already incomparable to last weekend. Not just a single rally or march but many, in different parts of downtown (in this video, two rallies meet)
I'll be documenting the protest and likely police violence in this thread π
Just ran up the march to the front. The whole thing might be half a mile long, maybe more. Police only observing and blocking highway entrances so far.
The crowd is staying put. Still a ton of energy. Still 100% peaceful. We're seeing LAPD and the Marines getting busy in the background, clearly planning something.
Down the block, hundreds, maybe over a thousand cops: LAPD, LASD, horses, anti riot vehicles... Even when it's local "law enforcement" and not the national guard or Marines, you can tell they are at war against their own people.
Calm interlude over. They are pushing us out of the park using flashbangs and rubber bullets. But all exits seem obstructed by police barrages. Everyone is confused and unsure where we can go
In addition to celebrating the birthday of President Donald Trump, today marks the 250th anniversary of the Army. There will be a grand military parade down Constitution Avenue in Washington, DC and festivities to mark the celebration.

Had not expected to be pulled into the Boston Pride parade but as soon as a group saw my double-sided LED #NoKings protest sign I got abducted, but in a good, non-ICE way. Happy to Ally Up on a day of inclusion with Liberty and Justice for All. I got my steps in and my batteries held up.
The gallery is just as responsible for this incident as the tourists.
Who the hell leaves a priceless, crystal, chair, just sitting out on the floor with not even some rope and stanchions to cordon it off for its protection?
I mean, the tourist is an idiot, but the gallery curators are fucking morons!

Yeahno. It was quite a large crowd in Fremont where I went, but the energy was almost 100% positive. In addition to the large number of people marching, holding signs, etc, there were huge numbers of people driving by and honking. The two major dangers out there were sunburn and dehydration. I took a number of pictures and video
