Jane Borden's "Cults Like Us: Why Doomsday Thinking Drives America" develops a simple thesis: The Pilgrims were essentially a doomsday cult who passed on seven key elements of belief that have shaped America ever since. My author interview: 1/13 www.salon.com/2025/05/26/h...

Every time I try to type “Indivisible” my autocorrect thinks I want to type “Indica.” OMG do I need some Indica in my life now.

Maybe this is the week I finally leave Facebook for good.

Tonight the warped ramblings of the president’s troubled mind were highlighted by a bizarre post about reopening Alcatraz As well as the feud between Trump and Hollywood But soon enough Americans will stop laughing at Trump’s halfwitted missives When the 145% tariffs on China start to kick in

Trump is a monster, and if not stopped, will transform Alcatraz into a death camp.

Given that most, if not all MAGA merch is made in China, I'll be really curious to see what happens to their pricing and availability 😁

Your occasional reminder that tariffs are constitutionally a Congressional power, which they have delegated to the President under the premise that there is some sort of emergency. The Republicans in Congress can reclaim that power anytime they want.

80 years ago on this day, Adolf Hitler shot himself. Never give up hope.

If a full impeachment of the domestic God King actually occurs, we want Jasmine Crockett and AOC to become interim US President and interim Vice President immediately to end maga.

Republicans voted to block hearings on #SignalGate yesterday. They know that if they allow hearings we’ll learn that Felon47s foreign policy team broke the law & expose all of the other Cabinet level meetings taking place outside of security & record keeping protocols. #DemVoice1

it really is astounding that a presidential administration crashed the growth trajectory of the wealthiest country on the planet in basically two months

Truth be told…this is why I become unhinged when I see certain people on here talking slick.

I told my former husband that with Tang’s Tariff BS, I’ll have to grow back my biological hair because I won’t be able to keep buying wigs.

I spent the day reorganizing my storge pantry to see if I needed to stock up on anything. Thankfully, I think I'm set for at least 2-3 months if push comes to shove.

Who knew the anti-Trump resistance was going to be led by… <checks notes> Greyhound and Harvard

This is not a fkg drill, y'all.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social & @housedemocrats.bsky.social MUST recognize the leadership potential of @repjasmine.bsky.social Her fire & ability to stand up & fight are EXACTLY what is needed right now!

From earlier this month…

My cat is the best. She’s watching cat YouTube videos.

I went to ALDI and Grocery Outlet yesterday. I got a lot of good stuff. I spent more money than I had planned, but this stuff will go with what I already have in my pantry and fridge.

I got this book today and I’m so excited to cook some of the recipes in it.

Among the Declaration of Independence’s grievances against the Crown was “transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offences.” newrepublic.com/article/1939...

#ProudBlue #Voices4Victory Who would have thought it would reach this point? 🤦‍♀️ I barely used the F word prior to 2016. And now that’s not enough.

I feel so much of this, as a Texan in exile.

The Democratic Party needs to get out of this woman's way.

The bad news is that the world is unpredictable and uncontrollable. The good news is that we are not helpless, and we shouldn’t feel hopeless. We can save ourselves and one another. Here’s how.

My former husband wrote this so I am reposting it here.

“When women are free to make their own decisions about their lives and to follow our dreams, we are unstoppable.” Cecile was a force of nature. May her memory be a blessing. 19thnews.org/2025/01/ceci...

Best thing our allies can remember: if you stand up to Trump you intimidate him and he will back down. If you crawl to him (like his sycophantic politicians) he will not respect you and will eventually throw you under the bus.

Making america great again!

People always say Star Trek is utopian but everyone forgets the history of how they got there. There was a 30 year long WW3 that started in 2026 and led to a collapse of society within hundreds of millions dying. It was only the invention of the warp drive that changed the trajectory.

We don't know what Elon Musk meant with that hand gesture but we do know he's reinstated Hitler apologists on X, praised an extreme far-right German political party and endorsed the claim that Jews push "hatred against whites" www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

i think the executive orders directing agencies to end energy efficiency regulations and open up more land to drilling and mining is so indicative of the character of the american right — in its view everything, whether people or our larger environment, is something to be exploited and dominated

Woke up pissed. Not scared. Not sick. Borderline rage pissed. You?

Today, marks 15 yrs since the SCOTUS ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, a decision that reversed century-old campaign finance restrictions and enabled corporations and other outside groups to spend unlimited funds on elections. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res...

Its a billionaires club.They don’t want better public schools or knowledgeable citizens. They want ignorant workers who won’t question. If you don’t know your rights you wont see them vanishing. If u don’t know facts you wont question the lies. They dont care abt us. To them we are replaceable.
