I am very annoyed that people think 'rich' means 'that guy has a mercedes and takes a vacation to italy once a year' and not 'that guy has more money than 40% of the world combined and can decide to start or stop wars based on his personal prejudices' the sums involved are incomprehensible

he's stealing billions of dollars of taxpayer money for his personal slush fund the most corrupt, criminal administration in history and despite how high a bar that is it isn't particularly close

The Supreme Court:

So there's a black girl scout troop trying to raise money to to to Europe but they aren't close to their goal as of yet. Please share this and buy some cookies if you can digitalcookie.girlscouts.org/scout/reagan...

"We owe conspiracy theorists a huge apology" No we fucking don't. They were talking about a secret conspiracy of gay trans Jewish lizard people. The Epstein files uncovered a conspiracy of rich, straight, white, right-wing Christian men, which these motherfuckers never even considered.

we couldn't use government funds to buy coffee (like, folgers ground coffee) when i worked on a CDC outbreak emergency response

Americans waking up to news that Prince Andrew has been arrested for Epstein ties

COLBERT on Thin-Skinned Trump’s fascist @jamestalarico.bsky.social ban: “Because my network clearly doesn't want us to talk about this, let's talk about this… They're trying to control what we watch, say, read — The most dangerous kind of cancel culture is the kind that comes from the top."

“Is there a technology the left is excited about?” High-speed rail! MRNA vaccines! New cancer treatments! Solar and wind energy collection! Better and longer-range EVs! That wood that's harder than steel! New apples! Fibermaxxing! Buldak Swicy ramen! Muppets! Muppets are too a technology, shut up!

"iS tHeRe a tEcHnoLoGY tHe leFt Is eXcItEd aBoUt" yeah, renewable energy, mRNA vaccines. Lots of cool stuff like that! Probably not the one whose main promise was cutting payrolls

Secondhand Lions was a brilliant fuxking film

The GOP has offered nothing this century except for catastrophic wars. No healthcare plan; no re-industrialization. Now they're losing their only issue, immigration, as people see the violence and havoc that comes with mass deportations.

Pol Pot killed 3 million people. Vought and Musk have him beat three times over.

The Project 2025 author is using millions of dollars in USAID money for his own security detail. It is estimated that 762,000 people have *already died* as a result of Elon Musk and Russell Vought’s obscene murder of USAID, including more than 500,000 children. Vought is a mass murderer.

morpheus is fighting neo dot gif all hail the queen of shade

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

douglas adams was our most accurate futurist

From Hamdan Ballal, co-director of last year’s Oscar-winning documentary “No Other Land.” This is happening now.

wake up homie, new culture war just dropped

Maybe I can get an mRNA flu vaccine in the EU this year?? Smdh

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

Your reminder that poll taxes are so illegal and requiring an ID to vote that you have to pay for IS a poll tax!

if you're an older person who finds words like mogg and maxxing annoying, just starting using them. people over the age of 30 have the superpower to end trends by simply adopting them

BAD BUNNY IS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

The Ford worker who heckled Trump during a visit to the company's plant still has his job and "has no discipline on his record," a union official said

Last October.

RFK Jr. and Mike Tyson want you to believe that MAHA is just about eating healthier. But in reality, MAHA has been focused on firing the food and medical research experts who actually make America healthy.

Soon we will find that Etsy donated money to some Trump-related thing

I just canceled my Nitro, it’s easy and fun

fuck this Ring commercial hiding fascism behind dogs

Remember. Your Ring camera is fascist.

i would not recommend reading trump’s unhinged post because all he knows how to do is diminish joy, and bad bunny just created so much of it.

Basically Ring advertised the technology Batman used to find the Joker that Lucius Fox refused to be a part of except for that one time.

That halftime show is what people mean when they say "joy is an act of resistance."

Benito said "God Bless America," and then proceeded to name every country in South and North America. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

Some of y’all don’t know which countries the Americas constitute

loved every second of Bad Bunny. That message of inclusion and a celebration of cultures like Puerto Rico’s is just what America needs right now. Plus, his music just gets you in motion. 10/10

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit

Pretty sure hell is just a never ending loop of weight loss ads

Great piece from @tressiemcphd.bsky.social that lays out how America's historical inability to implement baseline digital privacy protections is crashing headlong into our current authoritarian moment, provciding the Trump administration a fertile ground of public and private data on Americans.

BREAKING: 8 more U.S. Attorneys in MN resign from Trump’s DOJ in protest as backlash grows. This isn’t normal; isn’t routine reshuffling. It’s a rebellion. Last month, 6 veteran prosecutors quit in protest. Normal staffing for the MN DOJ’s office is around 50 attorneys. They’re down to just 9.

I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home. But did you look at the judge's order? It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept." Link to pdf: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

One of the things bothering me about how people are responding to the Epstein files is that there are tons of conspiracies being created and spread about what’s in them, rather than people just believing the victims like they could have been doing for years now

GOOD

USian trans people aren't telling you they won't vote for Gavin Newsom to cause you distress and despair. USian trans people are telling you they won't vote for Gavin Newsom so you don't vote for his transphobic ass in the primaries. They are giving you actionable information.

Anne Frank died of typhus at Bergen-Belsen

Once again here to tap the mic and say Texas is a gerrymandered, voter repressed state, not a "red" state. And every one of you celebrating the (significant) win in Tarrant County better not be the same people in my mentions saying to throw the whole South away. There are good people fighting.
