The epitome of tough love. I’ll take it! #40Acres #DanielleDeadwyler

Fat Tuesday is a perfectly acceptable day to take the Christmas decorations down.

After seeing Emmanuel Ax perform a concert in Ithaca I went to get a sandwich from Shortstop, and he had the same idea!

Double feature of Phantom Thread and The Favourite around the theme of poisoned tea.

No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

@tee-dee-oh.bsky.social Prisencolinensinainciusol was featured in the Olympic opening ceremonies. I think I may be complete?

i think if you post like this without offering concrete steps people can take to prepare for and respond to interference or without any acknowledgement of the success (or lack thereof) of this strategy then you are basically engaged in voter suppression.

They expect - they NEED - the people they threaten to fall in line, like the law firms and universities and media companies and billionaires and Congress did. If you say “No, make me,” they simply do not have a Plan B. TRUMP DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH GUYS TO MAKE YOU.

If you had predicted with precise accuracy any of our current top stories this week during the ‘24 election, it would have been dismissed as Trump Derangement Syndrome by most of the professional takesmiths.

The Democratic Party refuses to confront authoritarianism effectively because it shares the same class interests as the Republicans.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Simply put, the Times’ coverage of trans issues is in direct support of the genocidal elimination of all trans people. The odious Ross Douthat may be the most obvious perpetrator of this evil but make no mistake: our American Pravda is suffused with this. transnews.network/p/a-directiv...

Literally a publication for eight-year olds 40 years ago

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month. It’s about oil and regime change. And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

Cy taking a bite out of the full peel side of an apple he’s already taken a bite out of is on par with the insanity of Sen Keely and his daughter eating a Kit Kat bar as if it was a normal bar of chocolate.

I’m from Whoville, and I say kill the Grinch!

"It is logically impossible to simultaneously be evil, corrupt, and incompetent" is an absolutely amazing take to have in the year of 2025

I’ve Been Thinkin About You by Londonbeat is the fuckboy version of Just Another Day by John Secada.

Every legal story now is either Ancient Circuit Judge Delivers Crystal Clear 100 Page Rebuke To Trumpist Overreach or In Unsigned Shadow Docket Decision, 6-3 Majority Declares Trump Can Hunt People For Sport

"Demeaning" trans people is exactly right. Their goal--and what they're most able to easily achieve--is our humiliation. The imposition of indignities. They also hope that, as humiliations often do, it exposes us to ridicule. Perhaps even violence. (e.g. forcibly outing people on their IDs).

I’ve moved up in the world! I’ve gone from being in the top 0.05% of Bowie listeners on Spotify to the top 0.04!

They’re here today, then they’re gone forever. Never say never say never say…

and you know what? these students should also be judged, and judged harshly for this. running to the admins and state legislators and the press because you got a fairly earned failing grade on an assignment is and should be seen as a mark of extremely poor character. it makes you a very bad person.

I love almost all of Stranger Things and almost all of the stuff I don’t love I really really dig. But instead of a whole rewatch, I’m just going to watch the first season making the comparison that much starker.

This is an insightful but deeply upsetting article about why everyone in the US feels poor, and why the current political situation emerges as a direct result. www.yesigiveafig.com/p/part-1-my-...

On this Day of Mourning, we remember how the Wampanoag welcomed immigrants—while today’s govt demonizes them. Use your power: redirect your spending away from companies funding ICE and hateful rhetoric. Learn more at weaintbuyingit.com.

Today we honor the 58 transgender lives lost this year- 27 to violence, 21 to suicide. On Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember their names, their stories, and their humanity. Trans people deserve safety, dignity, and life. We will remember. We will fight. 🏳️‍⚧️ #TransDayOfRemembrance

Ahem.

“H-U-S-T-L-E-R, hustler!” I sing along while scrubbing a pan.

Imagine the Illusive Man from Mass Effect saying this

I didn't take pics but the feeling of being in a group of people with no visible beginning or end was so thrilling. The opposite of online anomie, and a living counterpoint to the wary, isolated, compartmentalized world the shitheads want to make. It's simple and obvious I guess but it means a lot.

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

The US federal attack on Portland has resulted in the best advertisement for a city that I have ever seen. Round-the-clock joy, community solidarity and silliness that much of the West has lost and longs for.
