I gotta sit down. Just found out all these wonderful folks at Rhode Island Comic Con helped me raise over $86,000 for @trevorproject.bsky.social !!! Thanks everyone!! It was joyous to meet you guys and to see every bit of obscure Jon Cryer merch under the sun. And I signed most of it. #RICC

I think if you pardon someone who goes on to commit more crimes, you should pay a price for that pardon. There must be accountability somewhere. Trump is pardoning dangerous people who go on to hurt others, and he retains his immunity.

Val Hoyle: "As a proud 3rd generation union member, I’ve walked a lot of picket lines and been part of supporting my union leadership in negotiations. If my leadership caved after a 40 day strike & got nothing in return, they would be voted out immediately. Pelosi never would have let this happen."

UPDATE — Here are the at least 11 congressional Democrats, 11 Democratic-aligned organizations, and 6 Democratic Senate candidates calling for Chuck Schumer to resign as leader:

2. I think people who get suspended have the right to clear and specific information about what rules they broke and with which posts. Obvious bots maybe don't need this? But real humans do.

So, I think there's a slight chance that MAYBE Donald Trump isn't the best person to be president of America.

I like to think there's a place where commercial characters who went WAY OUTSIDE their expected role end up. Charmin bears living next to California Raisins and those Geico Cave Men

This is what I try to always tell people: food banks can do way more with your money than you can, due to bulk buying deals. And they can do way, way more with your money than with the canned goods you didn’t want to eat

Name them.

OK I don't mean to be hyperbolic but this might affect conservatively 65% of my diet

We built a team of young Black, Asian, queer, and trans staffers at Teen Vogue, and they deserve the world. They are passionate, whip smart, and incredibly talented. Many of them are now without jobs — please consider donating to their GoFundMe: www.gofundme.com/f/help-laido...

You should read this entire piece, but the part that resonates the most is this: groups like Liberty Counsel will not stop. Ever. And the fact that what he was asking for was even in the same galaxy as "plausible" is symptomatic of just how rogue this court is.

Heck yeah, I deserve this.

US senators will say anything. "Standing up to donald trump gave him more power." No it didn't. That isn't true.

What I’m hearing is that we need Senator Godzilla

NEW: Kim Davis is done. The Supreme Court is not reconsidering Obergefell. What happens now? There is a reason people were afraid that the Supreme Court would take up case. The reason is the Supreme Court itself. Here's why I'm taking this whole experience seriously. Today, at Law Dork:

I just issued an executive order to develop a veteran food pantry network to provide food support for veterans, service members, and their families. Regardless of what happens at the federal level, Minnesota remains committed to providing for those who protect our freedom.

What a coincidence!

I get they don't want to litigate every suspension but when they suspend completely anodyne accounts who aren't going around suggesting we firebomb Walmarts or calling people slurs or whatever, what are we supposed to think?

The booing really threw Mr. State Your Name.

Saying, "we didn't suspend her because she researched authoritarian states, we suspended her because she talked about her research"....that's a bizarre distinction. If you suspended her because of something else, it would be useful to know.

The identity of Sarah Kendzior, researcher on authoritarian states, and Sarah Kendzior's content discussing authoritarian states are...not really easy to separate. So I'm struggling to see this as a response.

Happy Veterans Day 🫡

The party exists to fundraise off sustained mediocrity. Nothing else.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes. The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last. The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes. Why? It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city. I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.

I know, everybody should leave X, but I think an exception should be made solely for Joyce Carol Oates so she can keep wounding Musk's withered soul on his own site and he can't do a thing about it.

Every time someone’s like “put that in the louvre,” my head now goes “and then steal it from the louvre, the security password is louvre”

Hangin out at the stick!

why. why are you like this

gasp no this can’t be true how could we not see this coming no way republicans voting against the ACA??? No! I can’t believe it!

It is said that you must pick your battles, but often they are picked for you. You should not give in just because you did not choose the fight. No, you must respond with all your determination and ferocity, and show your enemy they picked the wrong battle, with the wrong warrior.

It’s wild to suggest this is a circular firing squad or something when it’s millions of citizen Democrats who hate it versus 47 elected Democrats who conspired to surrender for nothing. We’re not fighting “each other,” we’re fighting you. There’s only a few dozen of you, but you hold all the power.

Still processing the inanity of this cave, like, "We're going to make Republicans go on record that they want to destroy the ACA." You mean the motherfuckers who radicalized in opposition to it & voted to repeal it, like, 22 times? You're finally getting them on record? Really impressed over here

“If Schumer really wanted to use his considerable influence and leverage to stop this, he could have done that,” a senior Democratic Senate aide tells Zeteo. “He didn’t.”

This is so offensive I don’t even know where to start. “Vote blue no matter who and also shut the fuck up when those people betray you.” Nope. We will primary every senator who doesn’t call for Schumer to step down in the next 24 hours. You work for us.
