I'll be home for Christmas If Trump lets me leave Please let go of budget woe And pass it*, I mean jeez * a just budget that funds social programs and doesn't throw anybody under the bus

missed this in today's fascist roundup, but this is def fascist news

just because something becomes common doesn't mean you have to respect it

ok at this point the racists have to just be trolling us, right?

you do not under any circumstances “gotta hand it to them”

Women should have jobs, but Ross Douthat shouldn’t.

Loevy gets into the feds' use of tear gas. Loevy: "Tear gas is a serious weapon, do you agree?" Hewson: "No." Loevy: "Did you know that tear gas has been banned in warfare?" Hewson: "I did not know that."

so trump is 1000% getting lost walking around the complex, yea?

they simply do not believe they will need to win elections ever again

we got the juice

“This is replicable. [Mamdani’s] whole campaign was not just anti fascist, but the antithesis of fascism.” @naomiaklein.bsky.social tells @mehdirhasan.bsky.social why she was an early supporter of Mamdani, who just made history as the first-ever Muslim mayor of New York.

siding with the Trump administration and with racist attacks on Mamdani is quite a strategic choice for the ADL

the right wing will lie about NYC for all of Mamdani's tenure, they'll talk about horrors and injustice against Christians and white people and Jewish people their supporters will believe it because of decades of propaganda, supported by Dems too, about the "dangers" of Islam and big cities

disappearing people happens in broad daylight

the mere possibility of canvassing with Wallace Shawn was an excellent reason to work with the Mamdani campaign

is the republican strategy of intentionally starving people and raising their insurance rates 1000% to cover up for the worlds most notorious underage sex trafficking ring hurting their electoral chances? these centrist pundits walking their labradoodles in georgetown arent so sure

losing so bad last night means the GOP knows they need to bend and break the law to stay in power, and they'll do whatever it takes

I read the news in the US, UK, Portugal, Spain, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Japan, India, and Australia to prep for my podcast. Mamdani's win was front page everywhere. This is a big, big deal.

really obvious now why trump and the republican party have been working so hard to prevent fair elections lol they know

the only way the GOP can stay in power is by ending democracy, so that's their plan

my new movie I Love Boosters starring Keke Palmer, Demi Moore, Naomi Ackie, Taylour Paige, Lakeith Stanfield, Will Poulter, Eiza Gonzalez, and Poppy Liu will be in theaters May 22nd (Memorial Day Weekend) Distributed in the US by Neon Distributed internationally by Focus/Universal.

what's funnier is this has been going on since about the year 30 or so

"vote blue no matter who, unless they are to my left then eat shit"

"did you vote for your party's nominee" should be a softball

buh der bu du bu doo, bu duh doo, bu duh doo (jokes aside this is very good news and the kind of thing that funding the sciences is for)

terrible that this is a consideration but it is a big and real deal

Detainees describe filthy and inhumane conditions at Broadview's ICE facility during the first hearing in a class-action lawsuit against the feds blockclubchi.co/4qJ9nVq

Cheney is the poster child of the Leopards-Eating-My-Face Party. He spent decades building a system that would allow a dictatorial Presidency, and then was appalled that Trump got to be in charge instead of an olde-time apparatchik

"i want you and your children to starve" - richest President ever

all the staffers at teen vogue who just got laid off I hope yall feel how appreciated your work has been by so many.

this has become a feature of American politics, and won't go away unless we actively pursue and defeat the people who are making these threats -- something the Trump admin will never do, and Biden dragged his heels on

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Shapiro and Weiss seriously thought they could fan the flames of reactionary politics and it would spare them. Did they think they could spew racist and transphobic bigotry and it not end up growing into a monster that eventually came for them too? They made this bed for all of us.

Dinguses aplenty bruh don't need more Dingi in my feed

getting a lot of students asking for syllabi for the next semester? never had this before honestly

we're starting to see a real reckoning inside the GOP for decades of cozying up to open white supremacists. D'Souza and others represent a softer racist/nationalist path for the party, while Fuentes and increasingly Carlson represent a future where a GOP candidate will say the n-word on camera

reading a bunch of anti semitic argentines for work and honestly it's a little quaintly adorable how central they make themselves to worldwide conspiracy theories

if you don't like traffic, you want better transit and denser housing. simple as.

the key distinction here is between the literally impossible - which they don't care about - and the *socially* impossible - which they can't see past or they will understand how precarious their position really is

old enough that the return to standard time just means I am now waking up at five thirty

Congratulations, Andrew Cuomo! I know how hard you worked for this.

it's utterly wild how the Heritage Foundation president talks about other people if you found a guy talking like this outside, you'd probably call the cops

happy "your pet and toddler are mad at you" day

"please don't do the thing you're incentivized to do!"

‘Study after study shows that students want to develop these critical thinking skills, are not lazy, and large numbers of them would be in favor of banning ChatGPT and similar tools in universities’, says @olivia.science www.ru.nl/en/research/...

the lack of density in major urban areas literally brought Trump the Presidency in 2016, I am not kidding or exaggerating, if you oppose fascism you must support dense urban housing, full stop

the circumstances in which I would use an LLM to do my job: if they would take away my job unless I did it
