Sandra Wong, the great-granddaughter of Wong Kim Ark, in San Francisco today 👇🏽 bsky.app/profile/asam... #NoKings

I would say there are probably six or so viable candidates here, that I like. The rest have some very glaring issues.

What *enrages* me is that all of these institutions are going to go right back to featuring pride flags everywhere as a kind of vulgar marketing, as soon as this moment is finished. It is just going to be so clear who the cowards are.

less talk about cold plunges and jawlines, more building your wife a table and your kids a playset

So, we have Podesta falling for a phishing email, probably about aliens knowing his background, and now Patel falling for one too, probably some weird fetish email he received.

SENATE DEMOCRATS DEFEAT AMENDMENT FOR PHOTO ID REQUIREMENT TO VOTE www.yahoo.com/news/article...

I thought he lived in a hospital.

My exact same thought.

Seriously, someone just texted me, "I'm willing to look past the Nazi stuff as long as he doesn't flirt with cutting taxes on the middle class". There's a deep moral rot among Democrats, which believes that to defeat fascist Republicans, they must make the tent big enough to abandon their beliefs.

I don't know what is worse: that Graham Platner had a Nazi tattoo for almost twenty years, that he didn't care if he had a Nazi tattoo and frequented DC establishments until being confronted, or him/ his backers convincing a quarter of the Senate Democratic Caucus not to care about his Nazi tattoo.

Very Mets first inning. Give up two runs on the first two batters then score five on the reigning Cy Young. Let's not mention that O'Neil Cruz play on the Baty triple.

This isn't true. I wish people would stop saying this. Specifically the banned additives. The US actually bans slightly more additives than the EU, just different ones. The EU for example allows cyclamates the US doesn't

Yanks really suffering from lack of a Weird Guy near their dancers/intro section(?) And the answer has long been there

Always a great thread.

I would add along with Discworld that the Earthsea books and So You Want to be a Wizard books also were better.

As one who falls into the Harry Potter tattoo regret, I think we should legislate Harry Potter tattoos.

look I don't want to count my chickens or downplay the extent to which the right has fascist aspirations. but if the GOP had an unassailable, undetectable election rigging strategy - or the juice to openly do the detectable kind - you do kind of suspect they would've started here

I'm surprised that he didn't plea the 5th.

"nobody is doing anything" remains a lie meant to soothe the person saying the words. It's not true. YOU may not be doing anything but a lot of people are.

This is a huge problem for anything like a democratic info system& not one that will be easily undone or remedied. The sanitation of the info environment will require very large investments in producing, aggregating, legitimating, and distributing/making available info from independent/new venues.

“cannot differentiate” is doing a LOT of work here

Being both, there are a lot of similarities between antisemitism and transphobia. I think a big one is feeling attacked on all sides constantly.

I always find it telling when a politician doesn't understand in situations like this that usually the best move is just not to make one.

sigh just saw the Elizabeth Warren news....why as a progressive would you endorse Platner when you could instead just not do that

Some conversations can't be had online.

I will once again remind you that literally nothing motivates congress like fucking with their flights home and Dems should know this and hold strong bc it disproportionately affects rural districts

Netanyahu sucks, AIPAC sucks, but "we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby" is just code for "blame Jews." Trump wasn't forced to do this. Trump's supporters—like Kent—weren't forced to elect him and embolden him. They're not absolved of any responsibility.

on radioactive discourse: this is all veering off into some superficial 2022 era nonsense and sidestepping: we have NEVER needed Nazis on our side. Nor do they share our goals. Opposing imperialism and genocide is the easiest thing and anyone who shouts you down to say otherwise is just a wrecker

“it’s so weird that trans people cluster up in a single neighborhood“

I see you also discovered the Team Rocket member's social media note.

For those who may not know — this move the Pentagon is making now was also the first deployment in the Vietnam War…

I find it baffling how many people online are acting like Israel controls the U.S. It does not.

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

A federal judge in DC rules that Kari Lake was not lawfully appointed and that actions she took as the claimed head of USAGM "shall have no force or effect," including last August's RIFs at the Voice of America.

This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.

As our attention is distracted by war, ICE is detaining US citizens at O'Hare and shipping them off to undisclosed prisons. Seemingly because they have foreign-sounding names and had visited the Middle East. They've now been released, but this is outrageous.

This explains so much why Grim is such a Platner dick rider. He knows him personally as his bartender.

Yeah, they spent it all already. As have all other departments.

Neither is Unusual Whales.

Guys the Polymarket twitter account is not a news source.

🚨🚨 Operation Metro Surge is NOT over. ICE has received 4 large shipments of brand new vehicles in the past 24 hours. We urge everyone to continue to look out for their neighbors and supporting mutual aid efforts. We will not stop until ICE is OUT.

They really didn't understand what "leading from behind" meant and we're all paying the price for that.

One of the most important people in American history. May his memory be a blessing.

Schumer and all of the Dems bar Fetterman voted to restrain Trump, while every R bar Paul did the opposite. Making Schumer the face of this headline is ludicrous.

Don't show certain online talking heads. Whats sad is that I could either mean Hasan Piker or Ben Shapiro, depending on your political persuasion.

American Jews have been TRYING to tell folks that yes, AIPAC is evil, & fuck them, but Christian Zionists in the US outnumber Jews IN THE WORLD & have risen to power in all areas of our government, & they want to bring the End Times (& kill all the Jews btw), AND THIS IS WHAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT.
