I have a zit in the corner of my mouth so that’s fun.

@radiofreetom.bsky.social having dinner with my daughter and she sad “It’s bad but it is not that bad. We have to do everything we can to not descend into Fascism” and I said “Tom would be so proud.”

I guess we know who won the war on Christmas now.

T.A.C.O. Tuesday sounds like the perfect day to end the shutdown…

Proof that he's not human. Humans don't glitch

BREAKING: Stephen Miller—both Trump Administration capo and de facto head of DHS, ICE, and DOJ, has just declared that peaceful protesters are "street terrorists." Under an executive order signed by Trump just days ago, that means he is saying that all protesters in America can be arrested on sight.

I just ate an entire block of Dubliner cheese on my own. I am not even ashamed.

He's so far gone.

What is ACTUALLY happening in Portland. I live 10 miles from here. It's not a war zone.

I'm just saying...

Here's to all the republican-voting farmers out there...

This country, if we survive him even as a Democracy, will never be rid of the stench of his presidency!

Love this. Superbly done. Please send this far and wide. @donwinslow.bsky.social

Laurie and Richard Eckman are both 84 years old. He’s a Vietnam veteran, standing with his walker and wearing his service cap and federal officers rushed them. That image alone says everything about where we are as a country right now. 😔👇

She’s getting a pardon. Or something will happen to her.

Not possible to translate jibberish and obfuscation and just plain bullshit meant to confuse.

Republican Shutdown: Day 6 Via @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

Enough 💩 in this White House and Fox News to fill the Gulf of Mexico. If there’s actual terrorism, find them as they are breaking the law, arrest them, hold a trial, and show the evidence. Stop labeling Americans as criminals for clicks and outrage. Due process isn’t optional, it’s democracy.

I have pointed out this add as a huge factor in 2024 many times & so many on here have claimed it made no difference.

"The Dems pragmatic wing has been pleading to broaden the tent, ideally before the Trump administration stamps out all opposition. Party progressives seem determined to reeducate the public rather than compromise for their votes." - @jonathanbchait.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Vote for a Democrat? What kind of crazy talk is this?

Not me, man. Google me. I've been staying with Trump, brother

Who's telling you to "wait?" My argument is: act using the tools of democracy because *you still have them* Constantly saying that "it's over, fascism is now here" is incorrect, defeatist, and a dead-end. When did we become such a rigid and blinkered people that everything is either fine or fatal?

Some of you are saying that because of NSPM-7, you're blanking out your social media accounts and going to ground. Has it occurred to you that \the intent behind issuing this gigantic, unconstitutional, and unenforceable thing was to get you to do exactly that?

It really depends on whether the Americans who constitute a pro-democracy majority overcome their lethargy and vote as if their lives depended on it, instead of hemming and hawing about Gaza and student loans and egg prices. If they can, then this will be over starting in November. If not... dunno.

Doctor: You have cancer, it's early and we can treat it. You: It's obviously Stage 4 and in my liver, what's the point. Doctor: It's not that and it's treatable. You: Why are you so obtuse about what "cancer" means, you heartless quack

Notice the conflating here of "fascism" and "authoritarian." I've said, repeatedly, we're in the middle of an authoritarian assault. But going from this to "America is now fascist" is bonkers.

Well, it's been... interesting. This is now going into that cycle where new people are here and asking stuff I've answered a zillion times, so I'm going to suggest that they scroll or search around. And here's my archive of stuff that I've actually said: www.theatlantic.com/author/tom-n...

Israel is a crazy unchecked unhinged country. I don't want my tax dollars to go to those baby murderers, rapists, genociders, narcissistic evil people!

That kind of sarcasm comes out of me when people explain stuff to me that I have written about at length

His charisma is tied to his attention-seeking in a country that collectively has trouble focusing on long-term effects of short-term events.
