A lot of people don’t realize the dust bowl wasn’t a natural phenomenon. It happened when agrobusiness interests dramatically transformed the plains without regard for drought, and created vicious dust storms that choked whole families to death. That’s what I think of when I read about data centers.

“And now it's all the rancid sadism of dull men.” Yuuuup

Look, it's not Canada's fault it takes an entire forest of sage to try to smudge out the U.S.'s evil spirits.

Hands-down one of the greatest fast food items ever made

Hi. So like, we can’t eat fruits or veggies, we can’t breathe the air, we can’t afford anything. When do we all get sick of this nonsense and rip the system to shreds? I’m so tired.

I’m finally going to listen to my doctor and eat more vegetables and get more fresh air

Me: "It's time to start eating healthy." Lettuce: "I'm going to give you explosive diarrhea!" Chips and cookies in my pantry: "I would never do that to you."

No one in history has had more attorneys disbarred on their behalf than this psychopath. And you can’t pardon a disbarment.

I love how this makes it seem like they stopped monitoring RFK Jr

Harris County District Attorney Sean Teare announced on Friday that his office is investigating the ICE shooting death of 52-year-old Houston man Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, whether or not the federal government offers any help. www.rawstory.com/texas-ice-26...

Sigh. “In addition to cyclospora, surveillance of campylobacter, listeria, shigella, vibrio and Yersinia was cut. FoodNet now only regularly monitors two diseases: Salmonella and Shiga toxin-producing E. coli.”

We‘re one executive order away from a chocolate fountain.

This thing where members of congress keep disappearing for months with health problems and no explanation is bad, but also how would anything be different if every member of congress was in a coma right now

Me and the boys heading to our Friday meeting with Mitch McConnell

lol, ours is solidly type 2 🤣

A Police Executive Research Forum report from 2014 showed that CBP officers were purposely placing themselves in front of moving vehicles, and then shooting at them. This isn’t something that can be reformed. Abolish ICE. www.npr.org/sections/the...

Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in 25 days in the hospital. Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare. The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, and against guaranteed paid leave, is now getting all three.

“Critics and enemies of progressives will use this debacle as a data point showing the left flank can’t be trusted any more than the right. They’ll argue for moderation as the solution when [old-fashioned politics] is what got us here… When someone shows you their Nazi tattoo, believe them.”

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti

“It’s bustin’!” 😂🧡

I think @govandybeshear.bsky.social should just appoint a Dem to fill McConnell’s seat. It would force proof of life, and the state law that stripped him of that power should be challenged in court. I’m sure Thune would refuse to seat the appointee, but I think it’s a fight worth having. BE BOLD!

More Judith. Less Holofernes.

Me Too did not go far enough.

Reunited with this girl after a 2-week trip! She was spoiled by her grandparents in the meanwhile, but she’s still glad to have her pack back together 🩵 #dogsofbluesky

You know, it's pretty wild that all the journalists we are supposed to respect don't know if a sitting senator is dead or not

I think the Platner thing hit me so hard bc it was one of the most protracted, widespread acts of misogynist gaslighting from my own side that I've seen. We were presented with an obvious violent scumbag who was constantly lying (badly, might I add) and told we were crazy for not loving him

One thing I would love is if, when a straight white guy “sees the light” and joins the left, he would volunteer for a community group and like knock doors for someone who’d been on the left for ages instead of immediately wanting to be the candidate. It’d be like a litmus test for if they’re serious

I mean the whole Platner thing was so predictable & depressing & emblematic of… (gestures vaguely at everything), but I am enjoying the pithy takes

let this be a lesson to deal with your feelings of gender anxiety and masculine inadequacy with a hobby or therapy or something and not a high stakes senate election

The most surprising thing about the Graham Platner news is that it took this long.

Well, we may have lost but at least we look like we cheated

by force of habit susan collins says she's "troubled" by allegations before voting for graham platner

Turns out that having a nazi tattoo is a pretty big indicator of someone's character If only people had actually listened.

data visualization is my passion.

it’ll be difficult to demand proof of life for mitch mcconnell after congress just let a republican congressman disappear for four months during which no one had any idea if he was alive

Ha ha I hate it here

new metaphor just dropped

I was sure this was a joke, but it is not. What a world we live in

“An escalator can never break down. It can only become stairs.” - Mitch Hedberg

Stock trades by President. The blatant corruption is just staggering

every job i see these days is like: LEAD CONTENT ANALYST, Puppy Killing Factory (remote). $350,000 - $500,000. You will edit our internal newsletter (circulation 500). Associate Editor, Nonprofits, Global Good Magazine (in office, NYC). $27,000 - $28,000. Lead ALL of our fundraising efforts!

The US Men's Soccer Team is crushing right now thanks to birth right citizenship.

Marco Rubio is against birthright citizenship. But Marco Rubio *is* a birthright citizen. Ted Cruz is against birthright citizenship. But Ted Cruz was born in Canada. He only got US citizenship by a birthright citizenship law because of his US mother. They are both shameless hypocrites.

Hey you. Yeah, you reading this. I hope your July is better than your June. I hope that thing you're worried about works itself out for the best. I hope they text back. I hope you find that $20 you forgot about in a pocket right when you need it most. I just really hope things for you get better.

😘

SCOTUS (and GOP) has given up on good faith arguments about anything. The rulings are what they say they are, because they want them that way, not because they are based on any good faith argument, principals, or interpretation of the law. They're not even consistent across 2 days.
