He’s right and he should say it

We don’t often get NYT column reprints, but I was very glad to see this from @jamellebouie.net in today’s print StarTribune. Really strong piece warning of the dangers of Dems just trying to go back to “normal” after Trump. It’s among Bouie’s best (which is saying something)

If this bloated orange hatemonger croaks in June, what a happy pride month it will be! 🌈 🤞

Since it's Pride Month, y'all know that a Court that has decided that sixty years of precedent and the VRA don't mean anything with regard to civil rights and voting rights, isn't going to flinch when overturning same-sex marriage and employment protections, right?

The patriarchy is a sickness.

This is absolutely nuts: hackers are hijacking high-profile Instagram accounts by simply asking Meta's AI chatbot to change the email on the account. Meta's AI does it, hacker gets password reset code, they're in. A staggering security issue www.404media.co/hackers-simp...

This is seriously fucked. Like for starters they’re using commercial web analytics that are in no way in line with federal privacy disclosure requirements…

I have a million questions about this including: (1) what went through Quinta’s mind when she just muttered “keke” (2) did hannah make anyone watch Two Girls One Cup after (3) who explained Two Girls One Cup to Lisa Kudrow

people who whine about bluesky are seriously undervaluing the lack of ads, bluechecks, and grok 🤮 who tf cares about engagement i have peace of mind and sexy gorgeous men on my skyline!

get me off the ride

Reporter: Ken Paxton has taken to calling you ‘Talafreako’ @JamesTalarico: If Ken Paxton is worried about freaks, he should stop giving Epstein-style sweetheart deals to pedophiles. This is the guy who just released Adam Hoffman from jail, an admitted child rapist.

This entire administration is an exercise in discovering why you need government and then scrambling to assemble an arm while cutting off another leg.

i’m 31 and finished w two degrees in 2018 - most ppl i know, me included, have a job that is not designed for upward mobility or growth but to fill a need till you outgrow how little you make. wages don’t go up but rent, groceries and basics do every. single. year. we are not fucking doing ‘well’

A completely unserious, embarrassing ass country

Converting to Catholicism so I can tell my bosses using unregulated AI is against my religion and I will sue them like that cake lady who hated gay people if they make me use it

1,000% this

I am tired of Democratic senators warning me that all of Trump’s judges will dangerous “MAGA loyalists,” and then dutifully voting to confirm some of them anyway. Completely unserious people. Do your jobs or stop talking about it.

Trump calling to skip Don Jr's wedding

🗣️ WHEN YOU ARE GOOGLING SOMETHING JUST TYPE “-ai” AT THE END TO REMOVE THE AI SUMMARY FROM POPULATING!!!!

this is just one more blatant example, and i’m glad some people are calling it out.

Blanche: I DRIVE A DODGE STRATUS

"The number of births fell first and fastest in the areas that received high-speed mobile connectivity earliest. The authors argue that smartphones have transformed how young people spend time with one another, sharply reducing in-person socialising and leading to the collapse in their fertility."

Hump Day always gets me so distracted…so here’s something to distract you boys 😜😘😘

Zohran Mamdani has fully balanced New York City’s $12 billion deficit — an uncomfortable reminder to the political establishment that governments can, in fact, function when taxpayer money isn’t funneled toward lobbyists wealthy benefactors

reskeet if you’re radically pro-transgender

Democrats spent the last decade and a half "leading by example" by passing redistricting commissions while Republicans went hog wild on gerrymandering. Now they have one hand tied behind their back as Republicans have staved off the worst for themselves.

Democrats may not have much chance in future elections, but at least they still have their norms.

you raggedy nasty bitch, you will burn in hell for eternity

The height prompts for this month so far have really shown me how many lil guys are out there.

Repost to make it die faster

As an avid fan of relaxation and laziness, I will never ever understand the gays who go to the gym while on vacation. Relax! Eat good food and drink tasty drinks! The gym can wait til you get home!

Exhibit 1 for his trial for violations of our First Amendment rights.

We amended the Constitution so the people instead of state legislatures elect senators because the old system resulted in corruption and dysfunction, and now we have a system where state legislatures functionally decide the composition of their House delegations before a single vote is cast.

It is going to be very difficult to go back to the real world of having to wear clothes after 4 naked days in Palm Springs 😭

Co-sign AOC’s message on taxes here. The sooner we ditch Porter the better.

A note to any and all democratic lawmakers: As a Democratic voter, I do not want you to work with republicans. Ever. At all. Don’t vote with them. Don’t play softball with them. Don’t call them “our friends across the aisle.” I want you stand against them at every turn. If you can’t, get out.

Happy Hump Day from Palm Springs!

CBS didn’t air some particularly troubling rants, which depict a man who is much more petulant and incoherent than the broadcast would suggest. Read the entire transcript in full here: trib.al/mVertTn

I am loving Palm Springs 😍🍑

Okay she ate with that one

i hate prompt posts and i think we can all do much better

It’s kind of astonishing how many news outlets have published versions of a “Tucker Carlson apologized for telling people to support Trump” story by writers who very clearly did not listen to the podcast.
