"Why don't Americans-" The ruling class of America has intentionally disempowered its citizens spread across 3,000+ miles of land and then funded the police force as an occupying army that happily murders anyone who opposes them and imprisons whoever is left as slave laborers. So phone calls it is

The U.K. said no to Ye’s ‘comeback.’ Much of America said yes. And he said mostly nothing. Now we’re left with more questions than answers, writes critic Craig Jenkins.

one nice thing about being heavily tattooed is nobody ever wants to chat with me on the airplane

Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:

I'm the daughter of an Army paratrooper who refused orders during our illegal invasion of Vietnam back in the day. He went to LBJ military jail. Dad taught his girls this: "Just following orders" is NEVER any excuse for anyone who's complicit in war crimes. You MUST refuse heinous orders.

I simply think that no American President and in fact no human being at all should ever have the capacity to destroy civilization and it is sheer madness that we exist in a world where this is possible even when that isn’t foremost in our minds and headlines

a “ceasefire” that lasted 17 hours and killed 254 people in lebanon is not a ceasefire and referring to it as one is inaccurate

This is such a good idea. We should do this in NYC. "All Chicago Public Schools students now have access to nearly everything the city’s libraries have to offer — including physical items like books as well as extensive digital resources." blockclubchicago.org/2026/04/08/c...

I genuinely can't stop thinking about the Iranian kids who spent yesterday wondering if they were all going to die and what that day will do to them for the rest of their lives.

Massacre upon massacre in Beirut in the last hour. AUBMC announced a “code disaster.” Over 100 airstrikes in 10 minutes across the country. One hit right behind my house. Sirens ambulances & the smell of sulphur. The city is in total chaos the people in complete panic

what a glorious time capsule of this broken moment we are in

Brutal

#TheDevilWearsPrada2 stars Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep continue to promote it in clowny fashion that matches the film's branding and we want better things for these two tomandlorenzo.com/2026/04/mery...

I love Grey's Anatomy, and i don't care who hears it!! Rude what the auto-crop did to P. Demp's head.

keeps a job

you do not have to hand it to tucker carlson or marjorie taylor greene or alex jones or megyn kelly. they're all rats who see trump as a sinking ship and they're getting ready to jump in preparation for their next act. you do not have to fall for it.

I think it's bad for the President to threaten to annihilate an entire culture and i do not think you are being alarmist if you take his threats seriously and literally.

something strange and horrible and somehow fitting that we should have a very real threat of madman civilizational destruction at the very moment when we also have humans on the dark side of the moon taking pictures that show how small, precious, and beautiful our world and existence is

I just want to say that all of my concern at the moment is with the people of Iran. I think it's pretty obnoxious of Americans to be crashing out on here as if we were the ones that just got threatened by a mad man

seems reasonable to me. no one stepped in to reign the US in. not a single national leader made took any real affirmative action to stop Israel either. here are the consequences. your cowardice costs.

The reason some people were able to convince themselves that Pretti and Good deserved it is because they looked like stereotypical liberals

Dem calls for Trump's impeachment or removal via the 25th Amendment still coming in despite his ceasefire announcement. We're up to more than 85 now with several lawmakers making explicit that their calls for removal still stand.

americans only save the world in movies

This is the first oil crisis in which clean alternatives to oil and gas — solar panels, wind turbines, electric vehicles and batteries — are both inexpensive and widely available. clean technology flying off the shelves already... nytimes.com/2026/04/01/o...

This is no way to live, man

I'm just... sad.

Along with passing legislation banning cooperation with ICE, Pittsburgh City Council also passed a resolution to disclose all surveillance technology the city is currently using against citizens.

kind of a bummer if we can't even discuss with each other in good faith. but I've always been on the outside of that circle so 🤷🏿‍♀️

It's called firehosing and it's a deliberate tactic

rewatching S2 Poker Face to soothe my anxiety.

well today fucking sucked

I'm really scared. I don't know what else to say except that I wish I was with my family.

How do I work through this unprecedented time I mutter to myself for the 20th time this year.

All of us are dissociated and dissociating to make it through today. I hope you give yourself and others grace.

I think disassociating has been the national past time since Sandy Hook tbh. That was the first time (working a fully normie job) that I noticed a truly horrific thing had happened and we were just supposed to work through it

It’s a fight to feel embodied enough to freak out. There’s no time to get back into your body before another blow hits.

time to make some disrespectful ass phone calls to your congressional reps

If you’ve never called your congressional reps before, do it right now.

We regret to inform you that Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep are dressing in high-fashion clownwear to promote #TheDevilWearsPrada2. Brace yourself for the worst thing Meryl's ever worn: tomandlorenzo.com/2026/04/mery...

d'y'all remember that attempted coup a few years back where the Dems opted to not investigate or prosecute because they didn't want to embarrass their Republican colleagues that tried to kill them?

And they cut off energy supplies to Cuba after committing the war crimes of abducting the sitting president of Venezuela and commandeering/blockading Venezuelan oil tankers en route to Cuba.

"this dynamic—not just a race to the right, but a competition to signal the most gutter bigotry and willingness to lick the boots of the dear leader—now characterizes every single Republican race in national American politics. There is nothing in the party except for this."

you have to get him out of office and you have to do it today even if it gets blocked you force an impeachment vote right now how else can you live with yourself if he follows through with this and you didn’t do everything you could to stop it

movies are so back. this year is gonna be much fun.

is the GOP's mistake that they...won? And got everything they ever wanted in the process? Is that what we're worried might happen to Democrats or progressives?

The second western white folks started putting life into taxonomies was the second they detached themselves from the interconnected web of existence to which humans play role of steward at best. This is one crucial ideology serving as the foundation of fascism and settler colonialism.

The US reportedly waited to strike the bridge in Iran a second time until rescue workers and others in the area gathered to help the wounded, which then killed at least eight people. Authorities in Iran are describing it as an act of terrorism.

the way they have the cops being part of ~the resistance~ because they got outjacked by a worse gang you have to laugh. but the show is so good at capturing the mood of living under fascism. it's a cult, and the doublespeak of everyone trying to save themselves is so unnerving and effective.
