The government shutdown is especially tough on men, who are losing $1.00 for every 75¢ a woman loses.

I rented a limo for $500, and I found out that doesn't include the driver. .... all that money and nothing to chauffeur it. ;)

You know that old study that showed that a whole lot of dudes would confess to rape as long as you described the circumstances without using the word “rape”? turns out a whole lot of folks will happily describe Israelis using Nazi rhetoric as long as they’re too illiterate to recognize it as such

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️🌈

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat. For the crime of … complaining about government policy. Core 1A speech. With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

You know I want more said about the Argentina bailout. I know our media is a farce of vapid drama seeking nonsense. Argentina's bailout is exp: 194342 billion that rightwing economics are stupid. Argentina's super rightwing leader needs a socialized bailout because rightwing economics are nonsense

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka. I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws. Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

Portland isn’t “war ravaged”. Chicago doesn’t need “saving”. Tylenol doesn’t cause autism. People still care about the Epstein files. Escalators breaking down is not news worthy or an emergency. Medbeds are not the answer. Keep resisting fascism. Ignore the distractions. Fight back.

With the Tylenol bullshit I’m reminded that women have always been the scapegoat. Remember, they didn’t burn witches. They burned women. And I have no doubt that some would like to bring that practice back.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide. As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire. End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

the annual cost of climate-driven disasters could be $40bn by 2050 even under modest levels of global heating; bushfire smoke and extreme heat could kill many more people, and disasters hit people’s mental health, putting a strain on health services.

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

As the MSM remembers Charlie Kirk and speaks out against his horrific assassination, let’s recall the Minnesota Congresswoman who was assassinated on June 14th 2025 along with her husband and their dog. Do you even remember her name?!
