Cesena Marie 🕷️ 🏳️⚧️ (@thelibraryces.bsky.social):

Oh no

I think I have a crush on one of my friends

Oh no

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

You should flirt with your friend, for science

Cesena Marie 🕷️ 🏳️⚧️ (@thelibraryces.bsky.social):

She noticed that I got my eyebrows done...🫠

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

May I take this opportunity to recommend Twinings™️ Tea

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Donald Trump finally taking steps to correct the injustice of the active drug compound being named CAFFEine, when it should have been named THEine

No longer will America be saddled with burnt, stepped-upon Starbucks

Oolong shall rise and take the crown

i love you too darling 🥰😘

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

It's hard for me to post about joy b/c I am in a hospital waiting room

I can't even post which one, to ensure Nazis / transphobes don't swarm hospitals trying to count coup on me

SusieQ (@princesswaffles40.bsky.social):

Jesusfrickingchrist I am so sorry that you have to deal with those scumbags attacking you 😔

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

… to know its answers are "extremely proficient", you have to actually be an expert on the subject already

Give Nate his due, tho, he is a certified expert in structuring data in service of liquidity of capital

jeremy kaplowitz (@jeremykaplowitz.com):

i can see how you would come to this conclusion if your job didn't require you to ever be correct

Jay (@jayschankman.bsky.social):

Nate knows.

Mark Shatraw (@markshatraw.bsky.social):

I have finally replaced "that's illegal; they can't do that" in my head with "oh, good luck with that one bro"

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

I replaced it in my head with "The supply & demand of a narrative of epic purpose is the main driver of the political economy of the United States of America"

Kiraculous the Cyborg🏳️⚧️ (@kiraculous.net):

share what you enjoy not just what scares you or pisses you off. wee need joy now more than ever

Fae'rynn (Fatal Futch) (@faerynnistired.itch.io):

are people really doing true trans shit in the year of our goddess 2025?

Fae'rynn (Fatal Futch) (@faerynnistired.itch.io):

i'm sorry if you're not for full bodily autonomy and say shit like "it's hard to justify healthcare for someone who just WANTS to transition" i think you are scum of the earth actually

Fae'rynn (Fatal Futch) (@faerynnistired.itch.io):

"why would anyone choose to be trans? if i could be cis, i would."

i am sorry but we are simply built different lol

Fae'rynn (Fatal Futch) (@faerynnistired.itch.io):

like actually i want you to take that logic to its furthest conclusion and see where you arrive. i want you to really consider the horrors of what it would be like to cede that much power to transmedicalist institutions without liberation from the oppressive force of cissexism.

do it

Fae'rynn (Fatal Futch) (@faerynnistired.itch.io):

"i'm a hecking valid because i need it unlike you degenerate freaks who transition because its a fetish."

that's what you sound like btw

Normalcy Bias.

AKA "It Can't Happen Here"

juno rylee schultz (@juno.bsky.social):

i wish i could remember the exact episode but it was just ... wild !!! to learn about journ*lists in history just continuing to slam down the keys on their typewriters while their colleagues were literally being murdered in other newsrooms

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

And forum boards like Tate's & others have sections dedicated to video depicting violent atrocities, ensuring normalisation of violent extremism

Bits (@bitshammer.bsky.social):

Claire (@claire.chapien.net):

For anyone that wonders why Brianna is second on the most blocked list here on Bluesky, there may be a clue in the fact that noted BBC transphobe Justin Webb quotes her approvingly. No, you REALLY do not have to hand it to Trump

For well over a year, Reddit (especially women's & non-Christian & LGBTQ subreddits) were overrun with HeGetsUs adverts. Massive amounts of $, social & political capital spent to deploy proselytisation as propaganda

Miles Grant (@milesgrant.bsky.social):

Suddenly all my Meta ads are creepy far right garbage

Asperas Bompar (@asperasbompar.bsky.social):

Reddit did finally wise up and let people opt out of religious ads (the same way they do for alcohol).

As for Meta, I suspect most religious ads are geofenced. I get different ones depending on which side of Brooklyn I'm on. And they're really bad about respecting opt outs.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Let me guess: North side, religious adverts; south side, none?

Asperas Bompar (@asperasbompar.bsky.social):

More like North/Central Brooklyn, Orthodox Jewish groups asking me to pay for their settlements; Southern/Eastern Brooklyn, Eastern Orthodox and Catholic hucksters selling miraculous knick knacks.

Miles Grant (@milesgrant.bsky.social):

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Everyone needs to learn to identify the hallmarks of proselytisation, even when it's "passive" "advertisements"

bsky.app/profile/www....

Chrissy Stroop (@www.bugbeardispatch.com):

Spare me your "a relationship, not a religion" pablum. I've heard it all before, it's still manipulative and it's still proselytizing, and no proselytizing is a hard boundary with me

Faine Greenwood (@faineg.bsky.social):

Historically, it is a bad idea to stop feeding your soldiers

Beomoose (@beomoose.bsky.social):

"cancel commissary program," oooooooh good luck there buddy

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

They'll simply eat MREs & field rations, ofc

They have the free time to prepare their own meals

Every soldier peeling potato

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

I appreciate that many people need and/or want Gender (of themselves, of others, as a Phenomenon) to be A Complex Thing, including debating the rhetorical utilities of "Born This Way" vs "I Choose" and other aspects & axes.

I take a Categorical Imperative approach: "You are who You say You are.".

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

I see sometimes some people testing out Gender Theories which arrogate to them some degree of Authority on the Gender of Others, in a way which revolves around negation of "You are who You say You are", & I say nothing in the instance, but I do make note.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

I want and need - in this social & political climate, & in The Easy Times as well - to have no backdoors that function as

"You're not really who You say You are"

Through which bigots, fascists, etc can demand passage.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Earlier I pointed out that attempting to abolish Birthright Citizenship on the basis of "… subject to the jurisdiction" / "immediate loyalty" etc would lead to revoking citizenship of Catholics. Also, that Nazi Germany persecuted Catholics, because Führer Über Alles.

It is closer than most think.

Mia Farrow (@miafarrow.bsky.social):

Cardinal McElroy: "we are called always to have a sense of the dignity of every human person. And thus, - a wider indiscriminate massive deportation across the country would be something that would be incompatible with Catholic doctrine."

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

An objection was raised, "But SCOTUS has many Catholic justices", and that is true.

It's also true that Führer Über Alles.

The Global Far Right Power Grab as embodied in Trump / MAGA involves carving territory into demographic empires

And "America", for Trump, is a Protestant state

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

The expectation will be forced migration of [demographic] to [territory] carved out somewhere on the globe for them.

Full-on Manifest Destiny, White Anglo-Saxon Protestants Only, and Only Those Who Bend The Knee

Deputising local LEO to ICE is more than halfway to SCOTUS & Congress being irrelevant

Underrated Weird Guy in this vein: Peter Gabriel.

Peter Gabriel - Shock The Monkey

Aaron van Dorn (@aaronvandorn.bsky.social):

I'm a huge Genesis fan, but Gabriel's run of albums, "Peter Gabriel," "Peter Gabriel," "Peter Gabriel," "Peter Gabriel," and "So" is pretty untouchable. We need a government program to get weirdos access to Fairlights.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

✋🏻 Weirdo here!

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Troll: "[Slur] [Slur] [Death Threat] [Slur] [Nazi Slogan]"

Me: limbic system steady, brain activity nominal, heart rate normal

Dude who got banned a year ago for misogyny: "Ah c'mon bruh I'm not MAGA, whaddabout free speech, what did I even say that was so bad anywa—"

Me: "Eat magma, fricko 🤬"

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Extra points for "This is why the Democrats lost", which earns fricko an eternity being gnawed by the festering maw of Satan

I am certain you do not wish to argue that several years ago you assaulted me at Tanglewood Forest. Several of your fellow company members have chased me and thwapped me with Amtgard -legal boffer weapons on Company Road while I was making announcements on behalf of Kingdom Officers.
