Gotta say, I’m not so confident that you do

Forgive the Revolutionary War symbolism. Today, NJ & VA were at a pivotal moment — just like during 2 defining periods of the Revolution. This time, two strong women stood against the pull of authoritarianism. NJ & VA became beacons of victory & democratic strength for a nation needing it.

And John Adams (among many others) couldn't believe anyone was opposed to inoculation in 1764! He wrote to Abigail, "I should think my self, a deliberate self Murderer... if I should only stay in this Town and run the Chance of having it [smallpox] in the natural Way [rather than by inoculation].

When "being a lying asshole" is the most prized male characteristic, a lot of those women are going end up in relationships with lying assholes. Who could have predicted that?

We wanted to know something simple: Where a popular generic drug was made and whether that factory had quality problems. Instead, we found ourselves navigating a labyrinth of company names and databases that few consumers would even know exist.

After much discussion with people who think No Kings Day was a party and not real organizing, I have two broad theories: 1) A lot of them define organizing as actively insulting and belittling anyone not already in their organization 2) they don't like parties because they aren't invited to any

Saw a post here that said “Mike Johnson is the personification of the feeling you get just before you vomit” and it really put a bow on it for me.

Something maybe worth noting is that all the frog costumes and signs and good-natured memeing came about because a wide spectrum of Americans saw someone in direct, brave confrontation with ICE—getting pepperballed and standing their ground—and thought “that’s awesome. That person is a hero”

Google and Yale just released a 27B foundation model that generated a new hypothesis about cancer cell behavior, which was experimentally confirmed in living cells. The team open-sourced the model weights and resources for the community to build on. blog.google/technology/a...

you fucked around and now the Episcopalians are doing memes. are you happy now. are you

Pritzker: "If the Constitution means anything -- and I guess we all are questioning that right now -- the Insurrection Act cannot be invoked ... they just want troops on the ground because they want to militarize especially blue cities in blue states."

What all the way to the end and spread the word.

Nobody wants to work anymore.

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

I understand this. Please tell me you do, too.

All the videos we see of ICE/police/military assaulting people on camera are happening because they know they will face no consequences for their actions. They're breaking the law because they believe the law no longer applies to them. What kept them in check before was fear. Now they have none.

Who could ever have imagined when I played a fictional rebel who joined the Resistance to oppose a criminal Authoritarian & wannabe King, it would be happening in real-life? #TwentyfiveFortyseven

"Fuck ICE" is a patriotic sentiment. Perhaps the most patriotic in this moment.

I'm with @codyjohnston.bsky.social on this. Charlie Kirk didn't deserve to die. It's horrible and repugnant that he was murdered. It's worse that the died the way he did. He reached the level of prominence he did by stoking fear and hate and anger and he doesn't deserve to be lionized because of it.

#StarTrekTNG "Dead End" On a diplomatic mission, Picard discovers the remains of a secret investigation that may have ended in multiple murders. Intrigued by ancient Earth holidays, Data dresses in a striped sweater, fedora, and finger knives.

is it time already? this was one of my most popular sticker design back when I had a shop. It will be back... eventually. hope so. #traditionalart #startrekfanart #DS9

/2 I notice that the finger-wagging “you can’t see your opponents as evil” rhetoric from people like Megan is only pointed in one direction. The Right treating everyone but them as evil and inhuman is priced in, something we’re supposed to accept in the spirit of Kleinian discouse.

The government is officially shut down. Make no mistake: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is THEIR shutdown. They had every tool to govern and chose chaos instead. The American people are the ones paying the price.

Stephen Miller and Russ Vought have likely gamed out a shutdown scenario for months, and now we get to see what they've come up with

Tomorrow at 12:01 AM, the government will shut down. My prediction is that it will not reopen in its current form. I hope I'm wrong

For the VOTERS in California. The CORRECT VOTE is YES ON 50! This is the SINGLE funder of the "No" side👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾 CHARLES MUNGER Jr., BILLIONAIRE & RADICAL REPUBLICAN. A "NO" vote rewards Trump for gerrymandering the Congress. Be informed voters: It’s YOUR JOB & YOUR BIRTHRIGHT as American citizens!

Ted Cruz: “How about we all come together and say let's stop attacking p*dophiles." 🤔

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

I think about this a lot. If you've had a manager who managed by wishcast, you know how dysfunctional things get, fast. Same if you have a manager who manages by abuse. It's all Miller knows how to do, and he's the one running the show. Especially the death machine part.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it? If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say? Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.
