I worked at a hotel and once helped Marcel Marceau check in/take his luggage to his room. He talked my ear off for about ten minutes. And fwiw he was very kind and gracious.

The holidays are a super stressful time, please remember that you are entitled to a bit of peace. You are not a failure for not being able to afford something, be it a big fancy meal or a perfect gift. You are enough and I am proud of you.

The economy is FAR WORSE than the government is acknowledging. This holiday season, if you know folks struggling, don't be afraid to leave a mystery box of groceries or some gifts from Santa for the kids on their porch. Maybe drop a grocery store gift card in their mailbox. Be the Christmas magic.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

It’s not that we didn’t want the shutdown to end, it’s the fact that millions of people suffered throughout this shutdown and it was for nothing. That’s the most upsetting part.

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

It’s important, when questioning why Argentina is getting preferential treatment, to remember this: 1: After WWII very many Nazis fled to Argentina to avoid prosecution/death. 2: We have a lot of Nazis in our government right now. They probably would like the same treatment.

If you think it’s just these younger republicans you’re fucking kidding yourself. They learned it all somewhere and have been aided in these repugnant beliefs.

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery. @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

During a shutdown, the federal government can deploy troops to invade US cities but can’t send WIC funds to states to feed infants and children. Speaks volumes about how the rules around shutdowns systematically serve GOP priorities while harming everyone else.

FYI: Absolutely no "far left" or "radical left" people are involved in the federal government. If they were, we'd all have healthcare.

Not only should the Dems refuse to cave on the shutdown; they should announce they won’t vote for a budget until: (a) the military is withdrawn from every American city where it’s been deployed; (b) the budget forbids the use of any funds for that purpose; AND (c) the healthcare demand already made.

it is my opinion that the Allies in World War II were the good guys and I am glad that they won

In case there was ever any doubt, the only reason the right complained about cancel culture was because they weren't doing the canceling.

People don’t like hearing that being financially secure massively improved someone’s mental health because it socialises a problem we prefer to individualise.

In Columbus OH, Sinclair stations are WSYX, WTTE, and WWHO. Nexstar station is WCMH

An army is attacking, and those who put themselves forth on our front line by seeking elected office are politely asking the violently invading army to move to a friendlier battlefield first. I can’t find one reason to back the Democratic Party any more. They’re not fighting the same battle we are.

Now, more than ever, it’s time to start supporting artists/creatives, especially if they’re speaking out against fascism taking over Like, repost, comment. Engage as much as possible. Make sure it’s impossible to ignore the power of creative expression

Later Disney plus- “suspending Jimmy Kimmel because of pressure from the president is a direct attack on the first amendment of the constitution. Do better” #disney #disneyplus #disney+

Trump often slips and lets the real plan out during his incoherent rants. Like when he said “if I win you won’t have to worry about voting anymore”. I took that seriously, and still do. Because HE MEAN’T IT. We’re probably fucked but I’ll be anti-fascist until the day I die.

"Antifa" is not, never was, and never will be an organization. It's a cause. Declaring "antifa" to be terrorism is making the viewpoint of being against fascism illegal. That includes anyone and everyone who opposes this administration. Things are about to get very very bad.

Sorry soc Dems and liberals you will be called a communist and silenced anyway. You might as well just be a communist

The left was derided for promoting a cancel culture because they went after predators and those who abused their wealth and power. The right is canceling anyone who dares speak truth to power. Both sides are not remotely the same.

while progressive issues appear to poll well with a broad swath of the american electorate, that's not true if you use these new kinds of numbers we just made up

The Wheel of time. Lodge 49.

Liberals are doing the right’s job for it. By lionizing Charlie Kirk and refusing to acknowledge his real political project, they’re giving power to the right’s completely predictable effort to use his death to forward their goal of an authoritarian, fascist state.

Two things can be true: It can be horrific that Charlie Kirk was murdered AND he can still have been a horrific human. Death doesn’t exonerate him.

Big sigh. Watch this. Can you see why the Yankees’ moment of silence, the lowered flags, the promise of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, feel like a gut punch to the very people he spent years targeting? No one wished death on this man, but what we’re seeing right now is too f*cking much.

As a heads up this is disinfo. The rifle used is suspected to have been a 30.06. Turan (the company that makes the pictured bullet) only makes up to 5.56 rifle caliber rounds. So unless the feds are wrong about the caliber of the rifle they found (unlikely) this can't be an explanation.

I don't remember seeing any calls for violent retribution after a Minnesota state senator was assassinated, and it would have been nice not to see any today.

You can condemn murder and political violence without whitewashing Charlie Kirk's shameful history of hate, racism, white nationalism and promotion of dangerous conspiracies that radicalized Trump supporters to violence. You can do both.

For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country… Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year. And America shrugged and moved on.

Three high schoolers, who likely didn't make a career out of enabling and encouraging fascism, were shot in Colorado today.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

It is possible to hold both of these things true at the same time: 1) political violence is never an appropriate choice in a civilized society 2) Charlie Kirk’s dream is to create exactly the kind of society he currently lives in, as spoken from his own mouth

Don’t come at me with some morality bullshit. How many people died or have been harmed so this guy could make a fucking buck? I guess “live your life in a way that regular ass people who’ve never met you don’t cheer when you die”.

Important to remember that everyone involved in renaming the DoD to the Department of War is afraid to take the subway.

I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable

Tyrants govern through fear. Dictators take their power from the acquiescence of the good people who don't speak out. It is our obligation as citizens to set aside fear and take a step forward not a step back.

the idea the dems have to hold onto the "moral highground" by not counter gerrymandering is so dumb. nobody gives a fuck about the moral high ground. the president is literally rapist

epstein is genuinely the kind of story that could literally break the stranglehold of the ruling class, if we never, ever stop talking about it for a second. it’s the kind of thing that could have people in power tearing each other apart to save themselves, if we NEVER, EVER STOP TALKING ABOUT IT!

if a year ago you had tried to come up a marker for when you could say definitively "any semblance of democracy is over, we live in an authoritarian state now," you could do a lot worse than "makeshift concentration camp that includes some lawful permanent residents where detainees are tortured"

America in a nutshell.
