RIP Peabo Bryson 🕊💙🥹 This song is so beautiful... one of my favorites...

perfect.

For those who, like myself, only have a nodding acquaintance with the fine print of US politics, this is a fascinating thread.

Only evil people would steal everything and sell it back to you as a metered utility. Be smarter. Stop using AI.

When politicians say they can't hold corporations accountable, remember: they can. They just choose not to.

I will keep mentioning the segregationist goals of the feds and many other higher ed stakeholders in these interviews and one day a reporter will print it

The most annoying thing about being human right now...

Y’all think these are dance moves when they really are tactical maneuvers for when they are deployed to suppress us. But keep thinking it’s cute to watch how deftly robots dance.

The Voting Rights Act is essentially dead and it’s quite possible that we will, like when a similar SCOTUS gutted civil rights at the fall of Reconstruction, see a disappearance of much of the Black congressional representation, especially in the most heavily Black states, which are in the South.

Someone told me to watch this SNL sketch about America’s “media-opoly.” It feels eerily prophetic given today's media environment. Watch.

Are the women back there somewhere? Yes, I think I see them.

The Texas legislature rammed through a gerrymandering bill at the request of Trump. Virginia actually voted in favor of redistricting to counterbalance what Texas and other Republican-controlled states have done. Yet only one is considered a "power grab." Oligarch-owned media in a nutshell.

The infamous Florida immigrant detention center known as “Alligator Alcatraz” can remain open, an appeals court ruled Tuesday, overturning a lower judge’s decision to close the facility because it violated federal environmental laws.

genius!

LUTNICK: It is outrageous that Canada will not put US spirits on the shelf. It is insulting and disrespectful to America SHAHEEN: They won't do it because of the insults from this president and comments like yours

This is horrific. I feel physically ill. (Reposted with ALT text)

I study racist politicians from the Jim Crow era and this is on par with anything that John Rankin, Theodore Bilbo, or Cotton Ed Smith ever said in public

The fact I'm not surprised at all about what happened to her

The fact that Mamdani just seems like a cheerful normal guy who's policies are things like "we're going to tax second homes to fund pothole repairs" or whatever and yet this generates panicked responses like "This is basically Stalin's great purge turned up to eleven" is... telling. It tells things.

"Eye symptoms may signal higher-severity long COVID" Yale researchers found 57% of people with long COVID reported new eye issues—like blurred vision, dry eyes, floaters or flashes—after their initial infection.

I suppose this is how things will go with grief. I’ve heard grief is like a glitter bomb. One minute you’re up and managing. But all it takes is for one trigger for the bomb to explode and glitter is everywhere. And no matter how hard you try to clean it up, it really never goes away.

The cost of your flight went up because you searched for it twice. Your rideshare costs more because your phone battery is dying. This is surveillance pricing – corporations using your own data and behaviors against you. In the US Senate, I’ve got plan to ban it.

I really needed this laugh...

They bought the cat a new toy and this was the reaction.. 😂

Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year. Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants. They are good for society and the economy.

We are the shithole nation. Us.

Americans can all rest easy knowing that while this fresh Mideast war may lead to asymmetrical terror attacks throughout the world and on U.S. soil, and household budgets will be strained to a breaking point by doubling the cost of filling a gas tank, the suits at Exxon and Texaco will be just fine.

I cannot adequately explain how fucked up the World Cup situation is wihen the president of a host nation *threatens the safety* of one of the participants (Iran). The USA should be removed as a host nation and if it's not, the games shoud be boycotted and ANYONE WITH A MORAL CENTER should see that.
