This is pretty good, too! 🤫

In the Fourth Republic, we're going to resurrect the Postal Service with postal banking, public email accounts, and neighborhood post offices that provide constituency services and free legal advice. It's going to be so good.

This matters a lot more than his tweets.

What people think they 80s were like versus what the 80s was actually like.

Or maybe you could teach your kids to treat all people as deserving of respect and dignity. And maybe you could talk to your kids about homelessness, the unaffordability of housing and healthcare, the stigma around mental illness, and why it's not okay to call people crazy.

Me two weeks ago: Jeffrey Epstein killed himself, not to protect anyone, but because entering prison as the world's most illustrious pedophile makes that a logical decision. Conspiracy theories make less sense than the stated story. Me now: The Pee Tape was shot on Epstein Island.

Heuy Lewis!!

Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.

OF COURSE I saw this car in the Sunset @karlthefog.bsky.social

No human being belongs there, and no one should have been sent there. We need to keep repeating those parts, too.

I hate to be the one to say it, but this has been missing from nearly all the commentary– Gang members deserve due process rights as much as anyone else. Disappearing them is as much a crime against humanity as disappearing unaffiliated men.

Why more Democrats don’t just say normal stuff like this I’ll never understand. It isn’t that hard.

We simply do not have to sacrifice the rights of trans people to save rights elsewhere and anybody that tells you otherwise is a fascist

been thinking a lot about the media reaction to Biden's first debate performance compared to its response to fascism

if there are any newspaper editors reading this, think of it like, the Saturday Night Massacre was considered the "Harvard administrator cited sources improperly in their college thesis" of the 1970s in terms of how big a scandal it was.

The thing about these fires and reporting is no one in their right mind is claiming that the bias of living in LA is a problem. In fact, it makes these people better equipped to do the local reporting.

I am pro-Prop K and anti-recalls but this is perfect: “More than one [political consultant] independently quoted the biblical phrase from Hosea 8:7: For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind.” missionlocal.org/2024/12/reca...

Dr. Bunsen Honeydew doesn’t respect Beaker’s physical or emotional boundaries and is generally thoughtless. So yeah…..

The reason I waited so long to delete Twitter was I didn’t want to say goodbye to Karl. Maybe I won’t be misting him over here after all 🌫️🌫️🌁🌁😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️🤍🤍

When I introduce myself and someone mishears my name as Lauren or Laura, I explain, “Laurel, like Laurel and Hardy.” I started to feel old when some stopped understanding the reference, but apparently GIFs get it….

This is such a lovely piece

I learned to crochet 🧶 during lockdown and have improved my skills enough that I made a crocheted couch for my cats.

He’s right but not for the reason he thinks.

they made this same polite request of Roberts last year and he gave them the finger. he will almost certainly do the same this time. the Dems are at a crossroads with the courts. if they want voters to understand this as an existential crisis for democracy they need to act like it is one.

Got my tickets for tomorrow night!

Hi @grammargirl.bsky.social I hope it’s ok to ask a question for the podcast here. I was reading an article in Chicago Magazine about a trip on the Mississippi River in IL. There’s a question about why the author is an Illinois “stateriot.” I have never seen that word and can’t find any info. 🤔
