Just a side note, Pearl Harbor is one of the strangest places I’ve been. Even though it’s basically a cemetery for hundreds of people, there are gift shops, a food court, and fun tours of battleships. Such a bizarre contrast.

Plenty of Gen Z/Millennial artists have been vocal, it’s just Taylor Swift that hasn’t been. All she did was post one thing in support of Kamala only when she was at the height of her popularity, since then crickets.

Wild that prosecuting the masked secret police who have kidnapped people in the streets and sent them to concentration camps is not already the moderate Dem position. Abolish and Prosecute should be the minimum acceptable position for any Dem in office.

Ironically you may be able to draw a direct line from Jim Clyburn’s decision to throw his support behind Biden in the 2020 Primary and this exact moment.

US politics is Trump’s game whether you like it or not and you can’t beat him playing by the old rules.

It’s been said many times over, but if we had as much oversight over tax breaks for the wealthy as we do for welfare eligibility, we wouldn’t need to be so stringent with (relatively) small dollar benefits for every day people.

Dems need to learn from the Trump playbook to fight fire with fire and never apologize. You can’t play by the rules when your opponent is throwing the board.

When one party has a platform of rigging the system to win it doesn’t seem like there’s a way out of any of this without packing the court

Honestly, up until this exact moment I thought Zach Cregger writing/directing a Resident Evil movie was just a practical joke or something. Looks sick.

Welcome to 2025: where bullhorns replace dog whistles

I actually wasn't a big fan of the book - thought that it was written specifically to be adapted into a movie - but for that exact reason this looks fun!

Everyone’s sleeping on how intense the VA Lieutenant Gov. Democratic Primary is rn

I really hope Trump doesn’t arrest Newsom. Not necessarily bc it’s horrible and authoritarian, but mainly bc if he does then Gavin Newsom would definitely become president.

heres the instructional video they show you about dog safety at the post office

All these old and (sadly) very ill Dem lawmakers stepping aside is giving me a strange, strange feeling - hope?? I don't want to go too far, but if Chuck Schumer steps aside, I may actually feel something again

This is actually pretty baller.

THE RISE OF END TIMES FASCISM My first major piece of the new Trump era, co-written with @astra.bsky.social. The governing ideology of the far right has become a monstrous, supremacist survivalism. Our task is to build a movement strong enough to stop them. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Mark my words, there’s massive, massive amounts of insider trading happening inside this administration right now. All this market manipulation is fucked up.

It’s a good thing summers aren’t getting hotter every year and we won’t desperately need air conditioner parts in the hottest, most humid regions in the US.

Forever kicking myself for not searching for a better job in early 2022 than the one I had then. It was truly a great job market and I don't think we'll return to that much employee power for a while.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

I thought the Switch 2's $450 price was already a lot, but now it's 24% more...

Public Health posts on LinkedIn are all the same: "I've worked in this field for 30 years, and this is the most difficult job market for anyone graduating with an MPH. Take time to rest and recuperate, then get to work ✊" "Alright, any specific advice." "lol no."

31 years ago today, this joke first aired on TV.

Oh yes, the "woke National Zoo." Can't wait to read a plaque educating me on The Lost Cause when I'm just trying to see the pandas roll around and eat bamboo.

This is why the Dems shouldn’t listen to the “good billionaires”. Not only are they fiscally conservative/libertarian at heart but they’re also incredibly dumb

You’re telling me that a company that requires you to send them your DNA may be compromising your personal information? I’m shocked.

every college, corporate, and nonprofit president right now

BREAKING: Hundreds of Jews and allies have taken over Trump Tower chanting “We want justice, you say how. Bring Mahmoud home now!” and “Fight Nazis, not students.” The civil disobedience is spawned by the ICE arrest of Palestinian student Mahmoud Khalil.

Imagine all the people Gavin Newsom could have talked to for his podcast launch. Activists fighting the oligarchy, fired federal workers, people who are at risk of losing their SNAP or Medicaid... Instead he sits down with a white supremacist to attack trans people? A failure on all fronts.

If this man ever gets even somewhat close to the Dem nomination I’m going to rip my hair out

I thought Daredevil: Born Again was supposed to be Marvel’s premier tv - why does the CG look worse than 2002’s Spider-Man??

"Make America Healthy Again" by adding human feces to your drinking water

Unfortunately, Americans will be forced to remember why having a vaccinated population is a good thing. It didn't have to be this way. Lots of hurt will happen to lead the country back to a conclusion reached more than a century ago.

If the DNC actually wants to do something, they should follow Bernie's lead and have senators physically go into red districts and explain how deep cuts to Medicaid would decimate their lives and the lives of anyone they know in a nursing home

Bad policy kills.

Right-to-repair legislation has now been introduced in all 50 states. The movement to require companies to make their products repairable and give people the tools to do repair work is immensely popular across the country. Via @404media.co: www.404media.co/all-50-state...

Is there a way to read a Saga comic and not instantly want to read the next one? Seriously, this is one of the best comics I’ve ever read

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Bowled over to see this "cameo cover" of the new #Superman Unlimited #1. Dan Mora adeptly captured my laptop stickers and piercing model gaze. You can pick up this very special edition at your local comic shop May 21st.

Everyone in the DMV seems to have a story about how Trump affected their life, and now I have mine: Donald Trump signed an executive order last night terminating a prestigious and career-starting fellowship program I was in the running for.

i feel like with thirty minutes time and a couple diet Cokes i could get him to reverse the Louisiana Purchase

Seriously?

Reading Saga comics is so addictive. I can’t imagine reading these as they came out, I could not wait a month for each issue

I think it would be money well spent for the DNC to build up small, independent agencies made up of former federal employees. Show the public that there’s another way to do things while keeping people informed

Lex Luthor and Donald Trump: One is a megalomaniac asking everyone to calm down while claiming a far greater mandate than he actually has just because he seized on an opportunity separate from himself and then basically got lucky, and the other is Lex Luthor.
