THEM: how can you joke about Kristi Noem being hospitalized for having an allergic reaction ME: easily

🤦🏼‍♀️

“It's hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help. If I say I am Christian, but do these things, I'm a hypocrite." -Pope Francis

Says the guy who spent millions to elect a judge that will soon be the deciding vote on a case involving Tesla’s ability to sell cars in the state.

If John spends the rest of his life shitting on Lucasfilm for how they treat PoC characters, I’d be completely fine with it. I’m in my fourth decade as a Star Wars fan. He can cook until he can’t no more.

Oh look, another Russian mouthpiece in the White House. Nothing to worry about here, folks.

Silicon Valley guys casting government employees as lazy, parasitic, and malevolent seems like a giant case of projection imo

The only fair way to handle this is to appoint a team of teenagers to tear this company limb from limb until we find out what kind of financial damage they are hiding and where

@aoc.bsky.social: "Listen, if your representative is not doing a town hall, give me a ring... I'll say it right here, right now: if a deep red Republican district wants to have an honest conversation, even if it's with someone they disagree with, I'm willing to do that."

Where are all the MAGA supporters who claim to care about human trafficking?

@whipkclark.bsky.social: "If they didn’t stop at veterans programs and cancer research, I guess there is no line [Republicans] consider a red line that they won't cross. This is how countries lose democracies."

Welp. I guess I've always been destined to be a water bender. typeofyou.alltheway.tw/en/

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau literally exists to protect consumers from predatory financial institutions. It's returned over $21 billion to 205 million consumers. The sole result of this move is that Americans will have no recourse when they get screwed over by a bank. Good work Elon 👍

How much more tax cuts can he need? Not paying any tax, getting billions in government funds for SpaceX and STILL wants more. What a greedy fuck. He could spend his life making the world so much better and the Nazi just wants more.

Because nothing says “pro-life” like a Nazi salute.

The same people wailing about DEI literally can’t spell their own job title.

Good news, Republicans— those jobs you wanted are available.

Me this week

It took all of *one week* before top Republican donors pivoted to the real prize of Trump’s election: the prospect of extending Trump’s tax breaks for the ultrawealthy. It was never about lowering prices. It was always about lining the pockets of Trump’s donors.

Brilliant Point.

Have not been able to verify if this is true or not. However, the fact that it could easily be true is everything we need to know. This would be one of the top ten dumbest things she has said for sure... but picking the dumbest would be a challenge.

The same people having a temper tantrum over DEI just confirmed the least qualified Secretary of Defense in US history because Trump liked him on TV.

People of BlueSky! Let's get to know each other better. What's your all time favorite TV show? Quote your answer in gif form

"The biggest wallet pays for the most blinding lights." — Timothy Snyder

Moving the inauguration indoors and leaving thousands, with useless “commemorative tickets,” out in the cold, is a preview of how this next administration will operate.

me: so, yea, then they kicked buffy out of her own fucking house and put faith in charge of the potentials. my trust issues with others probably started right around the release of that episode, if im being truthful. my therapist: *sighs, checks watch*

Deep breath my friends.

LITERALLY EVERYTHING THE 'RIGHT' CLAIMS THEY WERE FREAKED ABOUT ABOUT SOROS IS *** ACTUALLY*** TRUE ABOUT ELON MUSK. NO ONE... ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, UNELECTED, HAVE THIS MUCH POWER IN OUR COUNTRY. HE ISNT EVEN AN AMERICAN!!! YET... THE WINGNUTS CHEER... SOOOO HYPOCRITICAL

The lack of self awareness is incredible.

Flashback to 2020: CA official: "If we ignore the science and put our head in the sand... we're not going to succeed together protecting Californians." Trump: "It'll start getting cooler. You just watch." "I wish science agreed with you." Trump: "I don’t think science knows, actually."

You mean to tell me that Facebook and Instagram, apps that are already riddled with russian political misinformation bots and porn ads directed at minors, has taken away something to protect against political misinformation bots and porn directed at minors? I'm shocked.

And it was obvious, 48 years later, that not enough people watched it.

We are going to hear a lot over the next couple of years about how, despite controlling the White House, House, and Senate, Republicans just aren't able to get anything done because of Democrats

Democrats just helped avert a government shutdown. President Musk and Trump failed to get what they demanded. Republicans threatened to stop paying millions of workers while Democrats once again showed that they’re the only adults in the room.

That’s a fact.
