I’m enjoying Episode 1 of Pluribus, but the premise makes no sense: what kind of morons receive a message containing instructions to create a virus, and then DO IT?

I will never understand why a weight I could do 12 reps with last week I can’t even lift to my shoulders today .

In 2001, terrorists tried to destroy the White House with a hijacked plane. 24 years later, the president of the United States accepted a plane from people funding terrorists and destroyed the White House himself.🔄

MTG currently sounding sane after years of giving us the craziest moments ever just shows that her act has always been a strategy to gain power, which is worse than when we assumed she was simply legit crazy. It’s all a game to these people, no matter who gets hurt.

In case you need a summary of what’s happening, Republicans are unnecessarily making 40 million people go hungry to blackmail Democrats into making your grandma’s health insurance premiums double.

“Every time I asked what would happen to my children, or if they could have something to eat, they hit us. They told me I did not matter. They told me my children did not matter,” Jaramillo-Solano told the resource center.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP. Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP. The people who need help are not the problem. It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Venice Bakery is remembering those that have died in ICE custody this year by adding them to their community altar for Dia de Los Muertos. By @eltragon.bsky.social

I’m glad the Reagan ad is driving our big wet fascist pissbaby president mad, but still, fuck Reagan eternally. He fucking sucked

There's a lot that's at stake, but you've stalled long enough ‘cause you're still standing stuck on the stuff on the steps.

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states. Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”

The lust for child bodies, feeds the traffick of children worldwide. A global network tied to the most wealthy and most powerful. And it is the poorest of poor countries supplying these bodies. Now the networks is in plainview, and some of the story about this network is hidden in the Epstein files

Democrats are standing up for Americans by demanding Republicans cancel the cuts, lower the costs, and save health care! @frost.house.gov

Ok everyone, I’m assigning you your resistance homework for the week. Everyone ready? Do something silly that makes you smile. I just waved at a dog that had its head out the car window because it made me happy. Don’t let the assholes take your joy.

The elimination of USAID is a moral atrocity and all involved made a choice to enable, and then lie about, ending the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in the world.

As a gay man, I viscerally hate being called “queer.” When I was growing up, that word was used exclusively as a slur. Kids played a game called “smear the queer.” Being called a queer made one an automatic target for all kinds of abuse. For me, there’s no way to redeem that word.

I would normally be horrified about someone releasing a video to talk about being indicted but this is pretty disciplined.

A memorial-service reminder that there are no feelings about Kirk you are required to "respect." He was an unregenerate bigot and misogynist who seized on a shrewd grift and used it to make our world worse. I fear that we can't yet measure his legacy, but that's all he deserves to be remembered for.

I’m just saying that when it happens I’m jumping out of bed, running to my window, and tossing a coin to a boy to buy the biggest goose in town

Hochul: "This is a war. We are at war. And that's why the gloves are off and I say, bring it on."

Hammer on nail... this man is going viral.

All those, "Don't vote Harris, because Gaza" folks must be thrilled with what Israel has been allowed to do under the Pedodent.

If my taxes don’t pave my roads or fix my bridges or keep my schools open 5 days a week or pay local teachers a living wage or help keep my hospital open or help my neighbor’s kid eat lunch or fund public television or my healthcare… Why the f’ck should I pay taxes?

The floods ripped through Texas on July 4. On July 5, FEMA received 3000 calls from survivors. 1% were unanswered. That night, Trump/Noem fired the people who answer the calls. On July 6, FEMA received 2,363 calls. 65% unanswered. July 7: 85%. Sick.

It’s bad that Trump thinks he got elected Boss of America and the whole government is just his staff, but it’s much worse that a majority of the Supreme Court and the leaders of both chambers of Congress agree

Hey, I know the people who need to hear this are probably not on this site, but here’s a free tip: Stop resigning. Make the fascists fire you. Make them own their actions, then fight it with whatever legal remedies you can find. We can’t win if people don’t fight.

This statement from Jonathan Joss's husband is heart breaking. No, headline writers, he wasn't "killed in an argument with a neighbor." He was *deliberately murdered* for being gay right after his dog was decapitated. Bet the murderer calls himself a "Christian." THIS is why Pride is important.

Yes

🧵1 “Easily assimilated.” Translation: If you’re white, it’s alright. 59 Afrikaners got charter flights, expedited screening, and a red carpet welcome—because, you know, Dutch ancestry = zero threat. Meanwhile, Brown asylum-seekers get ICE vans, shackles, and shattered families. #OnYourSide

Powerful

I feel as if making Stephen Miller the National Security Advisor could result in us all dying in a really innovative and non-cliched way. Like not a Tom Clancy disaster but like some kind of John Kennedy Toole way where our demise is the manifestation of incel inadequacy

Do the guys who flex on here know that they are in other guys’ spank banks?

No kings. No tyrants. Not now. Not ever.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Holy shit this cartoon.

They’re looking straight up at killing people, with utter indifference if not arrogance. This is his idea of winning.

“Screaming. A million mouths screaming but also laughing the sky will bleed and there shall be a great flensing a burning away of the flesh it is coming there is no way to stop what is coming.”

America is under attack by the President of the United States

I will not give into the lies. I will not give into the fear

one thing i’m stuck on is this idea that “masculine” energy means license to act like a chud in public, as opposed to more traditional notions of public masculinity, such as those that put a premium on the performance of integrity, honesty, honor and generosity.

The snow total is disappointing, but it’s not the first time something described as 12 inches turned out to be 5.

Watching RupUl’s Drag Race, and Kori King is the one to watch. Stunning and majestic.

Ringing in the New Year hits differently this year.

Right?

Not even in office yet and Elon and Trump are fucking up the economy. Impressive.

Somebody needs to tell Musk that he is not an elected official. I find it hilarious that Republicans freaked out about George Soros’s donations to the Democrats but have no problem with Musk acting as if he was king of America.

I ordered 1/2 a caprese sandwich from La Madeleine and got this tiny thing
