We should ask Timothy McVeigh about that.

Oh, that's easy. Your mother stopped texting because her son stopped paying the cell phone bill. Get on that, champ.

Imagine trying to pull the "we'll pay you in exposure" scam on the most famous woman in the world.

Seventeen years ago, I met a woman who would become the love of my life. Sixteen years ago, I married that woman. Not long after that, she came to the realization that she was enbie. And this year, he - having reached another milestone in his journey - is transitioning, and I have a husband.

You can start by also tagging the Republicans who are allowing and encouraging this to show THEM your outrage, too.

Gaza gave a conservative constituency who nonetheless voted Democratic after being demonized for decades post-9/11 an excuse to come back to the conservative fold, and they jumped on it. That's basically all there is to it. Well, and the antisemitism in Arabic language news (funded by Qatar)

"Almost" ten years. So long as you ignore THE ONE THING, I guess.

James Comey does not belong in jail. James Comey does belong wherever it may be that he'll shut the fuck up forever and hide his head in abject shame for what he wrought.

Because if there's one thing the Democratic Party is known for, it's rubber stamping anything the Democratic President wants to do. Reminder: Ken Klippenstein is an incredibly stupid asshole paid a metric fuckton of money by a right wing billionaire to do this shit.

I would argue against this, honestly. Trump was elected in part as a backlash AGAINST "cool" by those who felt like culture had somehow left them behind/eschewed them/whatever silly bullshit white men have to tell themselves to feel better in their unacknowledged mediocrity.

When you decide social media is your therapist

The Dominator has fucking spoken.

This is not a good faith question nor premise, and this account is a dumb asshole who wants to incite trans people to be mad at their actual allies. That said: if you can't see how trans rights would be in a better position today under Harris than Trump, you've chosen to be stupid.

"I support the nominee" is an endorsement of the nominee in any plain, good faith reading of those words.

So is everyone ready for the shitshow tomorrow post rapture? Also, is the rapture scheduled in a certain timezone or does it start at daw? Anyone in Australia raptured yet?

a big reason the Disney thing is important is that in the most visible fight the administration has picked, a fight they celebrated winning, ended up as a loss. it's embarrassing and demoralizing. it also shows non-political folks that the pendulum can swing back. that emboldens all of us to fight.

This may literally be cause for a lawsuit.

Public pressure matters. Your voice is important. As a deeply unpopular President, it's what Trump is most afraid of. The more people who speak up, the more people who will stand up to him.

epstein

I stopped feeling empathy for her when she turned her husband's death into a grift for more money and influence and said she'd get vengeance on "the left" (who didn't kill her husband).

Breaking, currently: Dan's brain

But what if I just want to ascribe my preferences to a black hero in order to whitewash them!?

The obscene sexual noises I, and asexual person, just made...

I see the new leftist thing is to demand irrelevant information before they "take you seriously."

I will die on this hill: If you unironically use the term "Blue MAGA" you are not in fact helpful to the Democratic coalition. You are a wrecker; you have decided that internet clout is more important than any other principle you claim to possess; and you are actively harmful. By choice.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

This is fucking gross (and I don't mean from Stancil). Imani Gandy has always struck me as a clout chaser more than anything else, and I recall thinking something similar even pre-Twitter back when she started blogging on balloon juice. She obviously does not read criticism in good faith.

"Democrats should have allowed themselves to be subjected to an endless tirade of death and rape threats from neo Nazis on a site run by a neo Nazi." Or, I don't know, maybe the fuck not.

For people who may freak out about Klippenstein's absurdly misleading (frankly: this is so inaccurate Ken's just fucking lying) headline, this is literally about a single actual cult: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zizians

One thing that's absolutely f---ing unbearable on this site is that if you dare to point out that Trump is not actually successfully oppressing all of us on every conceivable front, that not *all* is irretrievably lost, a parade of doomers materializes to denounce you. It's counterproductive. Stop.

THANK YOU. People ask why I bother raising money for Dems when “there won’t be any midterms” or “What’s the point, they’ll be rigged” etc. If that’s the case why do ANYTHING? I do what I can to fight back, mostly a) providing accurate healthcare policy info and b) raising $ for Democrats.

The UAE style is literally slavery.

The litterbox we bought because it's self cleaning has an app, and although in some ways this is actually useful, it still feels absurd that this screenshot is real (i just took it).

FIRE, Harper's Letter signers, and other assorted free speech warriors: You fuckers up?

CALL REPUBLICANS ABOUT REPUBLICAN POLICIES

This is pretty incredible, honestly.

I have several mutuals with this lying account, and I would suggest those who follow it stop doing so.

I'm not QTing because I don't need the drama, and I want to note that the gofundme being mentioned does seem like a worthy cause, but "if you've been disagreeing with my asinine opsec larping the least you can do is donate to this" is a weird fucking way to try to persuade people to donate.

It's crazy how eager Will's hate followers are to show their entire ass. This was posted two minutes ago and already has someone in the replies who very obviously did not read the post to which they're responding.

Guys I’ll just say this and then I’m out for the night: if you can’t stomach the risk of nonpublicly attaching yourself to a huge protest, it doesn’t seem like you have much ground to criticize execs and college presidents who couldn’t stomach the risk of being specifically targeted by the admin

Because these people are mostly internet warriors whose obsession with protest opsec is a thin rationalization of their desire to logic their way into doing nothing at all. People who really engage with this stuff don’t actually spend so much time securing their identity because they know it’s silly

These people are so goddamned unserious, and so utterly insistent to the contrary.

Over and over I see people alleging that Democratic Senators voted to confirm epic shitbird Robert Francis Kennedy Jr. as HHS Secretary. I am here to tell you that not a SINGLE DEMOCRAT voted to confirm him. NOT. ONE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

One other wrinkle to consider for Jake Tapper: maybe report on the obvious senility and poor health of our President. I hear that's kind of your whole fucking kink.

A significant part of "OpSec" involves measuring risk and mitigating reasonable risk, neither of which the cries of "but the email list!" seem to even attempt to comprehend let alone put into practice. Also, civilians using "OpSec" in colloquial conversation will never not crack me up.

Molly appears to have missed the "not" before "forgotten." Or she's pretending to be dumb.

This is literally an argument to never donate to, put your email on a list for, or otherwise engage with any non-fascist organizing whatsoever for fear of the fascists, and, well. Congratulations, you've done the fascists' work for them.

Maybe white people and purity leftists should have given them power to do more than this, numpty.

Yelling at Democrats led us here and to this very minute it does ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOTHING TO HELP THE SITUATION, you absolutely dumb goofy ridiculous motherfuckers. Make yourselves useful for once in your life and go yell at a republican, you useless moronic whiny ass ignoramuses.

they don't have the capacity to compel obedience by the process of law. they don't have the capacity to compel obedience by violence. the only lever by which they can obtain obedience is fear. do not offer it to them.
