There will always be enough votes to beat us but never to feed us. There will always be enough votes to spy on us but never to give us healthcare. There will always be enough votes to pay for prisons but never tuition. The parties aren’t the same but at the end of the day whoever wins, we lose

Don’t threaten me with a good time

The actions of elite democrats only make sense if you assume they’re meant to be controlled opposition instead of an independent party

hey quick question is it a good thing for a heavily armed country to have a lot of unemployed young people with few to no prospects for employment housing starting a family etc and very little to lose

Gavin Newsom is a wretched oily snake who exists solely to block any sign of progress and be the boot on society’s back while still having a D next to his name, so naturally he’s going to be the 2028 nominee

Why do they call it football when you of in the foot of out foot the ball

describe your cat’s personality with one photo

I’m putting my money on, let the super psychos focus on someone else, book deal, 2028 presidential run

is this good

Me and bae

This is the only overarching narrative I read from last night: people are so tired of this. The cruelty and greed and naked corruption of the elites while most are struggling. If 24 was a repudiation of the incumbent admin, I’d say this is at least that again, and much quicker.

*nyt opinion columnist voice* if the democrats want a political future they have to stop with the woke identity politics and win over sensible kitchen-table centrists like this family

I read market research once I wish I could find again that laid out the fears and insecurities that auto makers can/do play up to market pickups and large SUVs. They know this phenomenon very well even if their customers don’t. Make you think you need a fortress on wheels to keep your family safe.

She celebrate my brown dick til my tobacco smoking

Wait did we decline and fall so fast we’re already the ones getting imperialized?

when you wake up in the middle of the night and do something and then just plain can’t get back to sleep <<<<<<<

Pedocon theory undefeated

Until it actually happens this kind of posting is just cruel. To get one’s hopes up only to check the news and nothing!

Tracks with @jamellebouie.net’s thought that “people simply do not believe that republicans have agency” - Ted Kennedy can be a creep and the media can overreach and it’s still wrong to choose fascism. The mean ol’ libs didn’t make them, they eagerly pursued being the boot on our throat.

Snake experts: what’s the best snake?

Hear me out. Double-stuff double-frosting pop tarts.

A cheap knock-off of a nationalistic propagandist from the most hegemonic and bland pop slop franchise that completely neglects a couple centuries of real culture - as well as any nuance or complexity from the original sources - is actually kind of perfect

(tipping my cowboy hat back to look at the stars) you think them fellas from other planets look down on us in terror or you think it's pity Eustace (spits into fire): pity i reckon

Damn this shit is bleak. These bloodless mockeries of humanity, these empty voids of insatiable greed of just get to keep devouring *our* world?

matt plays a very important role. It’s not enough for reactionaries to enact their policies, they have to prevent them from being undone. As controlled opposition his job is to push against any progressive action, ensuring the ratchet only turns one way.

I’m realizing I love baseball but I don’t care about baseball details. I want to eat a hot dog and cheer for my team (go squirrels!) and wear a cap and do the wave and not give a damn about statistics or any rules beyond the most basic

I opened the fb app (first mistake, I know) and saw a message notification. I click it, and because reasons, it instead has to go to messenger. I see it’s a vid my wife sent me so I click it, and it goes right back to fb. What’s the value here, who is this benefiting, why are these separate apps

This is what happens when you fire everyone at the CIA who knows how to use photoshop

Oh we’re like *cooked * cooked huh

Not just aliens but apparently a lot of people have Theories about physics. A prof I once had kept a file of superlative cranks - funniest, weirdest, angriest, most wrong, most likely to stalk them and lead to their untimely demise,

Not to mention, first, that symbols have a power to them even if small; and second, when as a society we’ve forgotten how to voluntarily accept inconvenience much less hardship in pursuit of a goal, it’s probably helpful to find ways to ease people into direct action

Do you yokels never cook anything that needs more than one pan going how tf are you supposed to cook the pasta and the sauce at the same time

I really try not to be too much of a doomer but the fact that every one of these parasites is burning full throttle back to the Bronze Age for the fascists without even waiting for a focus group doesn’t feel great. They’re not that smart but they do tend to know who they need to suck up to

Everybody loves a warm wipe [threatening]

Who’s gonna be the first elected to be like “well assassinations are terrorism so if we give you healthcare the terrorists win.”

SCOTUS is about to rule 5-4 that the FDA is illegal aren’t they

I’d never really experienced it much before but holy shit now I know what people mean when they say the Republican Party has a pedophilia problem

As long as politicians are opining on science why shouldn’t scienticians opine on politics? I mean even outside of that science and politics are intertwined as politics boils down to the ways we interact and decide as groups, and science can help us make the right decisions.

If someone were to carry pruning shears on runs/walks/bike rides to take care of low-hanging branches that the property owners won’t trim, would that be wrong and/or a crime? Asking for a friend

Why do they keep asking this? We all know he won’t accept a loss Either this is reporter-brain driving them to dutifully print his bullshit as though it were a real answer, or they are too dim to see through the half-assed dodging the question

Can a job in any other country make you pee for them in front of an underpaid person in scrubs before you even start or is that another one of those things where the US has surpassed the world

just lost the last other member of my team at work super excited to be the sole focus of my micromanaging boss
