There’s something that always breaks me a little by knowing that dozens of dead little kids will not make Americans rise up against their government but higher gas prices might

Thinking about how many people could be housed, fed, educated & given healthcare for each day of bombing & war breaks my heart profoundly

Kinda blows that the post WWII international order might've been preserved if Israel had done a better job jailing Netanyahu and America had done a better job jailing Trump.

Human rights mean everybody, even the people you hate. For instance: I would like to see this genuinely and unrepentantly evil man tried and sentenced for his evil. And not any of the other things that might come unbidden to my mind when he has fully enraged me. Like right now.

Last year's Neighbour's Day in Kitchener with my band Court Crescent Drive youtu.be/EbcWRmHsukY?...

*Just in the LAST WEEK*: - Prisons are experimenting on trans prisoners to "cure" them - Kansas revoked every trans Kansan's driver's license - Scouts agreed to ban trans kids - Texas declared all health services stop helping trans kids - SCOTUS declared it legal to out trans kids to abusive parents

Respirator masks are an amazing bit of kit. If this video doesn’t leave you in awe of them I don’t know what will.

I identify and understand all parts of this reference, and I'm not sure how that makes me feel

I hate how accurate this tweet is.

Everything goes in cycles in American politics, and when this MAGA cycle ends soon we must not forget the CEOs, law firms, and media elites who bent the knee to Trump and sold out America for money, power, and access.

Feeding, housing, edicating, medical care for all is so, SO much cheaper & more effective at preventing crime than means-testing, policing, & prisons. Same thing with diplomacy & aid vs war. Especially this one

"People want to live in complete communities with easy access to transit, shops, and parks. These types of communities are good for health and happiness." #HappyCities

In the name of all that's holy, please try to find a space within yourselves to hold more than one truth at once. If it is bad to indiscriminately bomb the people of one country, it is bad to indiscriminately bomb the people of any country. You DON'T HAVE TO SUPPORT ANY SIDE to know that.

Not that it means anything anymore, but surely starting a shooting war without going to Congress should be something worthy of another impeachment to add to his collection.

The thing about the U.S. and Israel is that both of their leaders are trying to stay out of prison.

The only acceptable dem platform is "we will do what we failed to do in both Reconstruction and Denazification, brutally punishing everyone responsible and draining the billionaires into destitution to fund the 50 year program of fixing what they destroyed", and dem leadership is incapable of this.

This will remain true as long as no member of the current administration receives any kind of actual consequences. Think about the total lack of any kind of consequences for GW Bush's war crimes, continue to fuck things up a *quarter century* later.

He's a monster assembling his own axis of evil who want to kill babies in their quest for wars of real estate. He needs to be impeached the second you can do it.

"preemptive strikes" WAR OF AGGRESSION

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

The judges in WV have seen enough. They say that if the ICE continues detaining people in ways they have unanimously deemed illegal they will start issuing civil fines and contempt findings — including against state officials who help them carry it out. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

By the way, speaking of Obama's tan suit, not a goddamn peep that Trump announced a war while wearing a baseball cap (and no tie). Because only the black guy is held to the standards of dress by Republicans.

If I ever find myself noticing the attractiveness of a teenager, my process goes like this: "oh, gross. Now if I was 16 again...I would be as awkward, clueless, and unsuccessful as I was the first time." Then I move on with my day

Attacking other countries without congressional approval for the 2nd time within 3 months would be a great justification for articles of impeachment. Just saying

Gravity and I have an understanding: it hates me. Nothing major. Just if I set something down, it will fall

Not just our children, all of the children in Iran as well I’m really looking forward to our version of the Nuremberg trials

It would be cool to have a legislature that acted to defend its own constitutional prerogatives and, maybe as a treat, the interests of the people it represents too.

So many agendas claim to prioritize people in Iran while simultaneously killing them or being more than willing to. They cannot catch a break, just endless attacks, lies, and exploitation as if the populations there are just disposable pawns for whoever's game.

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. What about painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them. Via @usa.streetsblog.org @nyc.streetsblog.org

Reminder: Watergate didn’t collapse because the people in power decided to tell the truth. It collapsed because reporters kept digging and the public refused to look away. Iran-Contra didn’t unravel on its own either. It unraveled under exposure and pressure.

It really is either you support trans rights or you support Hitler 2.0

For millions of people, “standing up for Americans” looks like ICE-watchers in Minnesota defending their neighbors and communities, not like brutalizing immigrants and anyone ICE says looks/sounds like an immigrant. Media assuming most people share the bigoted Trump/MAGA conception of it is absurd.

It does not matter if anyone in the Epstein Files is Republican or Democrat. Left or Right. Liberal or Conservative. Pedophilia is the epitome of absolute disgust. They all need to see justice. Whataboutism and defending them says an awful lot about you and your morals.

It's truly crazy that anyone believes that too many kids transition. If kids were over-transitioning, you wouldn't have regret rates in the fraction of 1%, and you wouldn't have people routinely seeking medical care decades after it would have been most effective.

I know we won't be this lucky, but just imagine if It Happens during the SOTU

Complaining about winter is tired and passive. Offering prayers to your preferred solar deity, is active, and has, in the history of the world, had worked 99% of the time. Ra, please do not forget us. We, your faithful, are cold and long for the warm rays of your solar barque.

The correct number of concentration camps we should have in this country is zero.

Make this land use illegal in your community. In every community.

thinking about how Savannah Guthrie had to cancel her trip to work the Olympics because of her mom’s kidnapping but the guy who heads up the investigative body handling the case was posting pictures of himself in the US hockey locker room today lol

No one is above the law—it doesn’t matter how much money they have or how powerful their friends are. We need justice for Epstein’s survivors and accountability for everyone involved in the abuse of children.

New basement cover video: "Kiss" by Prince. Enjoy! youtu.be/Lv_-ubQKYow?...

Politicians (and their families) shouldn't be allowed to trade stocks or run companies. It goes into a trust. But they can buy government bonds tied to GDP growth or unemployment numbers, you know, something related to the government helping

It won't happen this way, but any refunds from the tariffs being struck down should be offset by cutting DHS' and ICE's ludicrous funding increases.

If I wanted long conversations where I get both flattered & told incorrect information, I wouldn't use any of the AI chat bots. I'll just keep talking to myself, thank you very much.

Is that a real poncho? I mean, is that a Mexican poncho or a Sears poncho? Hmm, no foolin'!

Weird Conservatives: “15 minute cities are liberal woke transgender oppression!” Actual advocates: “I want my grocery store to be close to my house.”
