Whoever came up with this plan is delusional.

Odds that Republicans could get Trump to resign by promising him a Supreme Court seat?

Keep seeing it reported that Pope Leo claimed that God will not heed he prayers of those whose hands are full of blood. But that wasn't Leo. That was Isaiah. And, if you believe Isaiah, it wasn't him talking either. That was a "thus saith the Lord" situation.

My favorite children’s author was Hungarian, and set several of her books in Hungary. I also grew up loving that Hungarian was this island in a sea of Indo-European neighbors. Strong ties? No. But I still feel an intensely personal joy at the election results today.

In all seriousness, the parties should agree to expel Eric Swalwell and Tony Gonzalez simultaneously. No change in party balance, and good riddance to bad rubbish on both sides.

:/ I feel bad for the Caymans.

omg those astronauts who are parents? THEY CAN LITERALLY TELL THEIR CHILDREN “I LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK”

This is such a brilliant move. That’s access to the Internet, borrowing laptops and so much. This is how a city should be moving

I got my first retinal scan eye exam today, instead of getting my pupils dilated. The insides of eyes is metal AF.

Oh, this is good. Idaho passed a bill banning local cities from flying the Pride flag. So the cities decided to wrap the poles themselves in pride colors. This is amazing.

I know it's late, but I need you all to realize that as soon as we started paying attention to these races, Moms for Liberty & their ilk, started losing. They exploited a window of apathy & did a lot of damage, but they just cannot win when actually opposed. No unopposed elections anywhere.

Our Keep Portland Housed package is coming to the upcoming Housing and Permitting Committee meeting on Tuesday, April 7, 2:00 - 5:00 PM at City Hall and your voice is needed in this discussion.

HORRIBLE. ICE is averaging more than one death a week this year. It's like clockwork. The last death reported was exactly seven days ago.

Y'all there is a woman and a black man circling the moon and NASA's mission control+ science teams are so diverse and people are nerding out about science and exploration this is all a gigantic middle finger to the stupid and hate and grotesque ghouls running our country

Here are the stories of some of the human beings who died horrific deaths from preventable disease because Trump and Musk and their flunkies decided to murder them by gleefully destroying USAID and the entire global aid system:

Love this.

If nothing else, 5% unemployment is actually pretty bad from a worker opportunity/wages perspective. It doesn't have to be ELEVENTY GAJILLION PERCENT etc., and for black workers, 5% is a perpetual recession: bsky.app/profile/mike...

The internet owes you this moment.

A thorny knot I am encountering more often is some activists’ and theorists’ discomfort with the success of The Resistance(TM) thus far. From inauguration on, their narrative has been: Trump and MAGA’s goals cannot be stopped without a full-on revolution. He has removed too many guardrails. 1/

We all have an opportunity to convince the Board that walking away from these responsibilities does immense harm to PSU students, the city, and the state.” www.tickettailor.com/events/psuaa...

The obvious responses are two-fold: —Professional associations need to ethics-investigation these people into the stone age (which they seem to prefer anyway). —Practitioners of this torture should get the same treatment that abortion providers and clinics get from “pro-life” zealots.

This is clearly terrible in impact, and I think wrong on the merits. But what I really don’t get is how this is compatible with “Don’t Say Gay” laws and abortion gag rules and gender-affirmation bans. Even by this Court’s umm… flexible legal theories. open.substack.com/pub/erininth...

I am feeling irrationally angry at everybody and everything. It’s highly inconvenient.

I'm looking forward to their buddy road trip movie. 🦑📷Don Loarie (www.inaturalist.ca/observations...)

“Rowling has made it abundantly clear that she thinks attacking transgender people via the legal system is a worthwhile cause and a good use of her vast personal fortune…there’s no way to watch this show without supporting Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting…”

Three Lebanese journalists were killed in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a clearly marked press vehicle. We are up to what? 189 journalists killed by Israeli forces at this point?

Talk about who gets paid how much, but not why, or barriers to changing it?🙄 By now, systemic racism & white people’s inability to have a grown-up conversation about it is the social sciences equivalent of climate change and its denialists. There’s no alternative theory with any explanatory power.

I actually agree with this, but I think we stiffened his spine by accusing him of weakness for more than a year, so yay us too.

Many congratulations to Archbishop Mullally and all my Anglican / Episcopalian peeps. What a glorious, holy thing.
