he should have thought of that before assaulting women failing that, he should have thought of it before running for governor!

a criminal conviction isn’t required to say someone does not have the moral character to run for office and i don’t understand why this needs to be said over and over and over again.

NASA scientists, they’re just like us

Difficult to tell which was descending faster tonight, Eric Swalwell's campaign or the Artemis crew

BREAKING: in March 2026, *every single one* of the 1,341 refugees admitted in the United States were white South Africans: In FY 2026, the U.S. has admitted a total of 4,496 white South Africans, three Afghans (back in November), and nobody else. www.rpc.state.gov/documents/Re...

A few have suggested that some aspects of this mission--joy, international teamwork, diversity--are being played up to stick it to the hateful attitude of the administration. But I don't think it's that. I think it's just that those things are essential to and inseparable from a mission like this.

It’s pretty interesting to compare Easter messages from political leaders and then consider which ones the media treats as being out of the mainstream or dangerous

MISSION CONTROL: prepare to enter the vacuum of space DOG ASTRONAUT: wait the what now

Absolutely incredible watching them run the same playbook on children with ADHD and autism that they did on trans youth.

The whole thing about Democrats searching for a winning message for the midterms is infuriating because it is staring them in the face: Rule of Law — People who do illegal shit should face consequences. For insider trading. For illegal wars. For ignoring court orders. For being a pedophile.

Man I wish any of these goobers applied 1% of their interest to think deeply and thoughtfully about AI to think deeply and thoughtfully about any other subject for even one second

Commentary: It is time we put aside the fiction that we bear no responsibility for an immigration system that is broken or that we owe no debt of gratitude to the millions of undocumented immigrants who have put roofs over our heads and food on our plates. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/03/27/w...

Raising retirement ages for Social Security and Medicare is bad policy and disastrous politics. Basically political poison for any party that endorses it. If Democrats were to run on it, say goodbye to any chance of expanding the map and winning Senate seats in purple and red states.

Stop worrying about what YA books to let your kids read and let them sort it out with V C Andrews and cocaine era Stephen King as God intended

Over the last few years, American tech oligarchs have become the greatest argument against their own existence. The sheer scale of their erratic behavior and political interference proves that extreme wealth concentration is a structural threat to society

Democratic consultants: To replicate Mamdani’s success with the young people we must appeal to their short attention spans with memes and TikTok Mamdani (actual quote): In the fifth century in what we now know as Ireland, a British warlord named Coroticus had laid waste to the countryside

when bigots say shit like "mass transition regret is inevitable" what they mean is that their goal is to make society so hostile to trans people that trans people decide to go back into the closet. thats why a bunch of terfs got all depressed when trans didn't go away after that supreme court ruling

Trump is such an asshole he’s got the Irish guy defending the English guy

Another example where I just assumed/thought/read the vaccine rollbacks were a done deal BUT NO. They were illegal, immediately challenged in court, and overturned today. Keep suing and don't believe any of it.

If you see this, repost You know the rules (and so do I)

Support your public library. Defend your public library. Slay the enemies of your public library.

Truly a perfect news alert

So much online conservatism these days is just "I miss being a kid"

How to win in November

this should be the end of the Gavin Newsom 2028 discussion. the party has spoken, full stop

For those wondering, Hotchkiss was explicitly founded as a feeder school for Yale which banned women until the 1970s. Graham Platner is in every reasonable definition an elite cosplaying as a member of the working class, something Trump did to remarkable effect. It's all vibes for y'all out there

We can’t clean up Washington without restoring integrity to the Supreme Court. That’s why I believe we should expand the Supreme Court to 13 justices. And then, institute term limits. Because an appointment to the Supreme Court shouldn’t mean a lifetime lack of accountability.

That's right. You got no leg to stand on, Newsom supporters. Shut your hole. We don't need anti trans anti homeless greaseball shit. North Carolina is purple, it's not some blue stronghold.

when you start a war in the Middle East and even bomb a school and still Jesus doesn’t return

Again, it is interesting that a single generation was entrusted with the richest, most advanced empire the world had ever known and was just uninterested in keeping it going

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

Keir Starmer, again, is Welsh for "Gavin Newsom."

trans people: “please try to understand how alarmingly bad this is. Imagine for one second how difficult your life would be if your driver’s license was suddenly made invalid overnight” cis people: “no thanks. sucks you’re dealing with that though”

Here’s the thing about folks speedrunning the creative process with AI: I could go to the beach every morning and put a grain of sand in a cup. They’d take their cup to the beach and fill it one day; but the point isn’t to have a cup of sand. It’s to fill my life with a thousand trips to the beach.

I'm really sick of liberals and centrists thinking that compromise is something you start with instead of something you end with

The reason you can’t give a single inch on anything be it trans rights or dignity for unhoused people is that they, democrats and republicans alike, will take it and say thanks what else is in your pockets? They won’t say thanks actually.

When Gavin Newsom says "the Democrats need to be more culturally normal" with "less focus on pronouns" what he's actually saying is "the trannies aren't normal and don't normalize them."

This guy gets it.

A lot of Republicans who insist that the system is rigged against people like them have a perverse admiration for people in power who take everything they can get. They tell themselves they'd do the same thing if they had the chance.

put it in the Louvre

Forcing people into the wrong bathrooms, stripping them of accurate IDs, and allowing government-sanctioned harassment doesn’t make ANYONE safer. This hatred CANNOT spread — get involved in your area to ensure that legislators oppose any future anti-equality bills: hrc.im/volunteer

the overseer of project 2025 is telling you out loud that every inch you cede on trans rights is part of the plan to create a white christian fascist state

Trans panic is wack, and anyone who buys into it would have been a sucker for any of history's sorriest attempts at scapegoating a convenient minority.

I think about how when they sang La Marseillaise they were still in the midst of a war they did not know they were going to win.

this quoted post is uninformed nonsense. policy changes towards trans people have been profound at both the state and federal level. the EEOC won’t even process charges of trans discrimination right now for fucks sake.

interesting to think that revolutionary era americans understood themselves as making a break with the “old world” and establishing a new civilization. and crucially, this new civilization rested on republican self-government, not “sovereignty.”

A lot of our political discourse would be easier if we didn't extend good faith to people who would never extend it back.
