Plastic flowers and foliage picked up from Cornish beaches.

I fully believe they would do this out of cruelty alone but other folks have raised a good point that they might have already blown this money and it’s not there. Their billionaire tax cuts and Argentina Bailout Package had to be taken from somewhere

I’m high as hell so maybe this sounds way more smart/mindblowing than it really is but my husband is now convinced Charlie Kirk was an inside job spurred on by that weekend Trump clearly almost died from some medical event, and was meant to speedrun a new more acceptable wife for next in line, JD

The more democratic elements of the American constitutional and economic order are actually throwing up road blocks to Trumpism. Protests and boycotts and low level courts and juries and cetera. Elite actors on the other hand are all too frequently caving. Fascinating study in who actually cares!

There need to be consequences for this, both for him, and the people who have, at every turn, tripped over themselves to give this man money

A new deal program where people get employment to help build their communities would solve so many problems in our society I am not joking.

BREAKING: A federal judge finds the Trump admin "did not comply" with his order to fund SNAP benefits. Judge John McConnell has verbally ordered the admin to *fully fund* SNAP benefits for the month of November — by tomorrow.

Meta’s own researchers concluded that a third of the scams in the U.S. happen over its platforms and that fraudulent ads and those for banned products might contribute a tenth of its revenue. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

oh my god they actually did it lmao

Currently stuck behind a Prius with a Trump bumper sticker and I’m a little disoriented

the reason republicans lost yesterday is because theyre a bunch of weird freaks pushing policy that everyone hates

i hope this election cycle empowers everyone the next time a centrist liberal says to drop pro-trans and pro-immigrant rhetoric to enthusiastically tell them to shut the fuck up

Can’t stop thinking about all the robber baron fucks that held secret meetings and spent MILLIONS AND MILLIONS in bribes and campaign investments and attack ads and media manipulation trying to tank Mamdani currently having the dawning realization that their money is completely and utterly useless.

Dark thought but I hope Mamdani has some kind of good security detail bc I’m legit worried that some nut will try to do something awful to him. Protect that man at all costs

have any fascists not endorsed cuomo yet there is still time on the clock

begging with my entire heart for election results across the map which force the Dems to finally begin internalizing the lesson that throwing trans people under the bus is going to fuck them repeatedly

just....enjoy this

They fired every Black woman at Teen Vogue and every trans staffer. It is astonishing watching the American media ecosystem just falling like dominoes, bowing its knees to fascism.

every science news article is like "chinese researchers invent cure for hurting your back getting out of bed" and every science policy news article is like "uncomfortable bed lobby successfully lobbies trump admin with $500 bribe"

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

They’ve all gone mad. Texas Governor Greg Abbott: “After the polls close tomorrow night, I will impose a 100% tariff on anyone moving to Texas from NYC.”

let's hollow every institution out on a slow burn for a while until everyone is at the breaking point, and then let's turn loathsome kleptocrats loose with armed goons, tactical starvation, and gilded ballrooms. surely nothing could go off in a surprising direction

No career development on a dead planet

Condé Nast finally achieved its dream of wrecking Teen Vogue and killing its politics section. www.thecut.com/article/teen...

The cruelty is the point.

ladies and gentlemen...we got him

on top of everything else i think it's really humiliating that when our senile fascist president travels overseas we have to hear about international chefs preparing him meals like "deconstructed american wagyu big mac with kimchi infused ketchup leather"

I cannot stress this enough: ACAB

📣 IF YOU HAVE A LITTLE FREE LIBRARY TURN IT INTO A COMMUNITY PANTRY ASAP IF YOU ARE ABLE

We made an inch of progress after 2020 (most of it performative and not real tbph) and as retribution the fascists have slingshotted us 100 miles backwards

New: Videos show ICE/CBP agents are scanning peoples' faces on the street to verify citizenship. ICE has tool to instantly look up unprecedented number of databases with just a photo “I’m an American citizen so leave me alone” “Alright, we just got to verify that” www.404media.co/ice-and-cbp-...

Thank you, Charlie Chaplin film for the unexpected but much appreciated new reaction image

The truck full of angry diseased monkeys feels a little bit like a jump the shark moment but maybe it will make sense in the larger ‘downfall of America’ story arc

He’s gonna put a gold toilet in there isn’t he

Ezra Klein running articles about how the Democrats have to move to the center while Border Patrol and ICE tear gas my neighborhood, cannot stress enough that every liberal institution is not capable of dealing with what's actually happening

Almost every major news story this week is about how the entire economy is now gambling, scams, bribes and theft.
