The wealthy have class solidarity and we'll only beat them when we have it too

This Epstein drop is HUGE and utterly disgusting. I don’t see how this man is allowed to remain in office. Where are the evangelical leaders, the soccer moms, the folks stocking up on eggs, the farmers, the small business owners. Decide. Who are you?

Oh no. Catherine O'Hara? We lost another legend. 😭

the president of the united states should not be allowed to personally loot the treasury to the sum of ten billion dollars and that this is not resulting in immediate, unanimous impeachment is a dramatic indictment of what has become of our political system

I have been laughing at this for a solid five minutes.

Low-key evening, so was able to watch the first three episodes of Wonder Man, and I kinda love it. Not at all what I was expecting.

This makes my nerd heart happy. Really hope Apple TV can do these books justice. Sounds like Sanderson negotiated an unprecedented amount of oversight on these, which gives me hope. #Cosmere

I know it’s not like a surprise anymore that the president is an insane cretin who encourages political violence at almost every opportunity, protected by a cadre of corrupt judges who have cloaked his hateful conduct in impunity, but it’s a cold fact. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Breaking: Republican candidate for Minnesota Governor Chris Madel drops out of the race. “I can’t look my daughters in the eye and say I’m running as a Republican, when they’re pulling over Hispanics and Asians because of the color of the skin... I did not sign up for that.”

I know it's hard to track all the threats to democracy out there right now, but this is at the top of the list.

This is the single funniest excuse he could have come up with for not wanting to be booed in public

Waited for the snow to stop for Round 3 of shoveling. Hopefully the last. Sun had just gone down. About 1.5" to do, plus the other half of the bottom of the driveway, which was all about knee-high.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

The party that has spent unlimited resources and energy getting states to pass laws to allow citizens to openly carry loaded weapons anywhere - now believes that exercising this right is permission for law enforcement to murder you. Honestly, how dumb do they think we are?

Shoveling Round 2 was only about 1/2" and 30 minutes by myself.

First shovel done. Took about 90 min. w/ both me & Chels. Snow measured 7" at the top of the driveway and about 2' at the bottom. The "helpful" street plow making sure nobody goes out today. Temp was 9 °F, w/ -7 °F wind chill. Thankfully the snow is light & powdery. Next round should be easier.

It's astounding that there aren't 23 people that will put country over party.

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

The people who continue to go out there and protest, knowing that ICE might just decide to corner them and shoot them where they stand, are braver than any troops.

ICE agents killed a man and are disappearing the witnesses.

Minnesota shifting narrative from "rabble rousing protesters" vs "law enforcement" to "people of conscience" vs "evil regime." This is essential to defeating authoritarianism - exposing who, what & why they are by demonstrating who, what & why we are. And MAGA knows it. www.cnn.com/2026/01/23/p...

Our family will be watching this Day 1. Really really hope it's good. Should've been a no-brainer to revisit the old format. Surprised it's taken this long. Hope it does well enough to stick around for a while. #Muppets

I think you could show Army of Darkness to any child and they’d be better for it

Now that the White House is using AI to edit photos of their political opponents to create fascist propaganda I’m wondering if anyone could have seen this use of AI coming. Okay I’m hearing lots of people did and they were forced to watch corporations smother the masses with the technology anyways

People can say they didn’t vote for this but people are liars

there's no answer to the question 'what's it gonna take?' but that doesn't stop it from popping into my head every goddamn time I look at the news

quick someone award Jeffrey Epstein a Greatest Pedophile Ever medal and Trump will get so jealous he'll release the Epstein Files just to prove he deserves it more

mad king moment from the PBS Newshour correspondent

It was perhaps a foregone conclusion, but I loved the first episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. Love these characters. Love their story. This show is doing it justice so far. #DunkAndEgg

Damn. It was an ugly game, lots of dropped passes, not CW's best game, but a great showing by the defense and we almostvhad it in OT. HELL of a season. Ben Johnson IS our coach. He & Caleb Williams will only going to get better. The future is bright for the Chicago Bears. #BearDown

Jim Cornelison bring that Madhouse on Madison energy to the Star-Spangled Banner. Let's do this. #BearDown

It worked last week, so threw back a pre-game Chicago Handshake as an offering to the ursine football gods. Bear weather for the Iceman to have another big game. Let's keep this season going. #BearDown #GoodBetterBest

Gallego ("moderate" Dem) is going with "ICE needs to be totally torn down" (not "reform and retrain"). This is a pivot point for the country on immigration. You have been seeing this in the data for a while, and now officials are snapping to the public opinion www.gelliottmorris.com/p/ice-is-a-7...

I put myself through the entire interview. Trust me when I tell you that Gavin "dank memes" Newsom agrees with him on EVERYTHING. I literally says "I agree with you" on EVERYTHING. Ben "extremely unpopular even with MAGA" Shapiro gets very combative with him and Gavin capitulates EVERY time.

Every example of ai being useful begins with "okay imagine you're in a situation, and you are very dumb"

Just finished Stephen Fry's "Odyssey". I've really loved his series exploring Greek mythology and stories. Contemporizing the classic stories and making them more relatable (and fun) to modern audiences. I'd have killed for these books in school. Really glad the 12yo has been enjoying them as well.

No exceptions. If you use Gen A I in any capacity whatsoever, you suck. Yes, the way you're using it too. You're not special. "She probably doesn't mean me" I do.

This is a quick, fun quiz. I scored 17/20. Admittedly, a couple of those were lucky guesses.

I just found out last night that the $50k enrollment bonus only pays out after 5 years of service, and reader, the laugh I let out when I read that woke the dog from across the house. These absolute fucking grapes aren't seeing a dime of that money. No way they can ride out 5 years of this job.

Still riding high from last night. #BearDown #FTP

I don't know how we won that game. We should not have won that game. We need to learn to play the first half of the game. lol Cardiac Bears. #FTP #BearDown
