The sad truth about history is women’s stories are always invisible. If you want to know if a woman’s movement was an exception to the impact religion has on political movements you can’t rely on the usual history books. But 2 minutes on Google can help. share.google/maqN6feifIxu...

After a frustrating two days trying to get my old tablet to consistently charge, digging out the canned air and having a discussion about whether it was worth it to get a new one I finally fixed it by plugging the power cord all the way into the power bar. So, that’s how things are going here

folks, you know about buses, trains, trolleys and monorails. but let me introduce a new, fully funded and FREE public transit system across the twin cities, consisting of an elaborate network of waterslides and elevated lazy rivers **pulls back curtain to reveal renderings**

The next move, I hope, is @robertgarcia.bsky.social holding a press conference asking why the attorney general won't give testimony under oath about the sex trafficking ring that likely implicates the president. And then another the next day. And the next. And the next.

I can’t help but compare this to Marc Anderson’s college freshman drivel about introspection and “great” men and women.

And also from the NYT piece: “It makes you rethink in history all those heroes,” Ms. Lopez said. “The movement — that’s the hero.”

People are commenting about how this is about "powerful" men, but in a society that listens to men over women and girls, that treats the former as competent and credible, the latter as not, every man is empowered to abuse, and it happens at all levels and in all sectors of society.

Basically feminism for the past 250 years has been a struggle to establish that women are people endowed with certain inalienable rights, and among those rights are life, liberty, and bodily autonomy.

“still punk” I whisper to myself as I write my little jokes while waiting in the pickup line at my kids’ school

If you don't believe that magical places still exist, I ask that you simply walk into your local independent bookstore.

PSA: I'm a religion and politics reporter. That means I cover politics — professionally — for a living. And I can assure you: I still *do not care* what prediction markets think when it comes to elections. I put them in the same category as that octopus that chooses soccer game outcomes.

mom can you pick me up at the strait of hormuz, my friends are laughing at me and wont help

Dude doesn’t get with every statement like this he’s screaming about his feelings for the whole world to see. These billionaires every action, every word reeks of insecurity, the need for constant validation and a weak grasp on the concept that other people are actually, you know, real people.

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

I genuinely think this entire thing is about that “weak men makes hard times” quote that they’re all obsessed with— it runs through their head constantly, they think the whole world is about top dogs and bottom dogs & no other information is necessary

It's looking increasingly like these guys thought that if they could wreak more death and destruction than the other side then they would be respected as strong powerful men and they would "win" and that would make them big important heroes. Very possibly they had no rationale deeper than that.

IT'S COOL HOW EVERYTHING SUCKS NOW BC 7 BILLIONAIRES HATE THEMSELVES

The silence is deafening from most “pro-life” conservatives about Trump bombing an elementary school.

This is my daily mantra

reminded of my most dad coded political opinion which is that we need a universal Naps and Lil Snacks For All program

If I had a dollar for every person who asks how defense attorneys sleep at night, I’d be able to pay my student loans. If I had a dollar for every person who asks how prosecutors sleep at night, I could maybe buy a pack of gum. Broken society.

This disgusting shit doesn’t belong in American society. And Republicans who support it don’t belong in Congress.

The problem with power moves is all it takes to subvert them is a much much much younger stronger guy like a newborn baby or the president of Paraguay

Had any one of his old acquaintances on shore but half dreamed of what was lurking in him then, how soon would their aghast and righteous souls have wrenched the ship from such a fiendish man!

I don't ever want to hear that it's wrong to call them Nazis again.

these ppl need to be ID'd, fired and prevented from ever working for the gov't, either directly or for a gov't contractor. Maybe management also needs to be fired. Weed these people out.

Let books be your dining table, And you shall be full of delights. Let them be your mattress,And you shall sleep restful nights - St. Ephraim the Syrian

Tired: Turing Test Wired: “will you show up for your coworkers” Test

No one ever accidentally gets a tattoo that signifies love and respect for black women… … but I’m supposed to believe that people accidentally get Nazi tattoos.

thank you computer. you are stupid

I would argue they knew exactly what they were doing, which was deliberately sabotaging needed public works programs by offering snake oil they never had any intention of delivering.

I think this is a great argument, beautifully constructed

solidarity with all the children out there throwing tantrums. stay strong. you WILL get what you want

Logging on to tell you that the Mayo Clinic's annual profit is equal to HCMC's entire operating revenue. However can we find the money to save our bedrock safety net hospital? 🤔 www.startribune.com/mayo-clinic-...

I hate when my need to demonstrate masculinity through voting for warmongers comes into conflict with my need to demonstrate masculinity through large, gas-guzzling vehicles. I hate it!

Honestly how many tech smart boys intent on destroying humanity do I need to keep track of? Seems every week there’s a new nihilistic bro getting rich off the promise of a new way to burn it all down.

Hi everyone who puts "nd" and "rd" and "th" after dates! Amazing work. Dedication to the bit since the 5th century!

"Why aren't Minnesotans shopping here at Target anymore?" A real mystery for Scooby Doo and the gang, for sure...

They are gonna have a hard time Tarzahy-ing their way through the impact of that image.

I got cited for age discrimination at my cougar ranch

Things are up and down at my bobcat farm.

Quick reminder that everyone already knows her replacement will be as vile and dead inside as she is. It's ok to just...savor these moments. Let yourself have it. Let everyone have it. This is joy, and it doesn't last long. Don't make it shorter.

while we're on the subject: there is no online echo chamber that is within an order of magnitude as politically, socially, and epistemic ally distorting as the average red state affluent suburb. there are masses that yearn for your ministry, reach out to them!

Sure seems like it would buy a whole lot of everything without killing a whole bunch of everyone if we defunded the military.

Well isn't that special...

Walz to Nancy Mace: "Minnesota ranks at the top. Where do South Carolina children rank on healthiness? I'm not here to be your prop."

WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin? NOEM: Yes WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that? NOEM: No.

In this hearing, Dems invited Reverand Mariah Tollgaard as their witness. She's describing impact of invasion. And she's describing how Minnesotans love their neighbor and believe that all humans have dignity. Basically preaching Christianity.
