The way you know the Dems are bullshit is there isn't an actual fist fight happening on the Senate floor right now.

It’s not just Schumer. The Dems job is to cave, come up one vote short, get blocked by the parlementarian, mired in committee, etc It’s why large Corps, billionaires & foreign countries fund thrm. If they didn’t cave, lose, come up short the Corps/billionaires wouldn’t give them a dime.

Following up on this. This remains a ‘cave is minutes or hours away’ situation. If you want to impact how this plays out you need to contact senators literally now. I want to add additional points of context. What I’m relaying is what I’ve picked up from highly reliable sources.

Yeah it seems like the best political move is to give into this guy

I called. You call. Stop these dumb fucks.

Did we all not know about the 35-year Copyright reversion Clause? Gary K. Wolf just used it to get his Roger Rabbit rights back from Disney. Apparently if you sold your rights to someone, you can serve them a notice between 25-38 years later and petition the library of congress to give them back.

I’m no great fan of the ACA. I believe we should guarantee health care as a human right through a single-payer Medicare for All system. But — at minimum — we cannot allow Republicans to destroy our already-broken system by doubling insurance premiums for 20 million Americans.

Call them: Schumer (NY) 202 224-6542 Booker (NJ) 202 224-3224 King (ME) 202 224-5344 Hassan (NH) 202 224-3324 Durbin (IL) 202 224-2152 Ossoff (GA) 202 224-3521 Shaheen (NH) 202 224-2841 Gillibrand (NY) 202 224-4451 Masto (NV) 202 224-3542 Warner (VA) 202 224-2023 Fetterman (PA) No Point

Chuck Schumer's imaginary friends, a theoretical centrist couple named Joe & Eileen Bailey, were revealed today to be mischievous omnipotent imps. The Baileys have been temporarily banished back to the 5th Dimension after Superman tricked the pair into saying their names backwards.

Any senator can physically tackle any other senator just fyi.

Fuck these people.

if you terfs actually spent time reading radical feminists instead of selectively quoting them you’d realise, very quickly, that ‘gender critical’ is just bigotry rooted in patriarchy. here is catherine mackinnon:

vince gilligan shaved his moustache and i can tell you right now it would take me like ten years to figure out clark kent is superman. who the fuck is that

& it ignores how us trans folks actually experience our lives and our genders. Also? We're ALL socialized into patriarchy, and THAT'S the MAIN and ACTUAL gendered socialization.

Hi I don't know who needs to hear this, but "socialized as male" "socialized as female" is a transphobic dogwhistle It pretends to respect your gender while reinforcing your assigned gender at birth as your primary and "true" gender identity

more woke disney bs (1932)

Loved the first two episodes of Pluribus, a lot. Rhea S brilliant as ever. High concept tightrope acts like this are hard to maintain but if anyone can I’m thinking it’s Vince Gilligan.

I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme. So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”

Devs have increased the loot drops for this raid with each new patch.

I just hope this new Michael Jackson biopic focuses on making a *quality film first* rather than just setting up a shared cinematic universe with Easter Eggs for Woody, Cosby, Singer, Weinstein, R. Kelly, Spacey, John K, Epstein, Trump, Clinton, Louis, Diddy, Schneider, Lasseter, Gaiman, Roilland...

you can honey nut anything, not just cheerios. It's illegal but you can do it with a special kit

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

Thank you for your help and friendship and for following my art and jokes and all these dang takes. Challenging fucking times. Grateful to be arm in arm with you all.

the fury i feel is indescribable.

No Democratic candidate who shows hesitation about punishing the villains should be listened to or supported

Trump fought like hell and moved mountains to make sure millions of Americans will starve.

PROJECT TRANSCEND NEEDS YOUR HELP In addition to covering additional materials costs and artist and staff payments, we're stretching our budget to help support artists who have lost access to SNAP. If you're in a position to throw a few bucks our way, please, please do.

they’re really trying their hardest to not release the epstein files it’s crazy

I can’t believe Zohran is transing the trains already www.mta.info/article/f-m-...

“We’re losing billions of dollars a year, but at least we’re telling teens to kill themselves”

like how little do you think of americans that “daily videos of masked men terrorizing children and tearing families apart” is an issue you don’t touch because you think you’re going to lose on it. that’s insane

Finally found the ICE video that I fully could not watch and it was the man having the seizure while they pulled a child from his arms. Countries are fake, borders are fake, nothing can justify this inhumanity. It’s all just for the abstract comfort of withering country clubbers and their pawns.

This shit is so bleak. If we had any sense at all, we'd ban chatbots and charge their CEOs w/ public endangerment. We're not even dying to Terminators or cool Matrix squids. LLMs pick which life-saving public services to end, coach kids to end their lives, & catfish retirees into pointless deaths.

i'm very glad this technology is being forced onto us everywhere on all levels

Star Trek: TNG is maybe the purest human drama ever created. A man helps his robot son learn how to be human, and whether human is even a good thing to be, while being tested by the man’s best frenemy, God.

when is Mamdani going to finally apologize for what he said in my dream

It shouldn’t be forgotten that a big piece of Mamdani’s campaign was simply “cities are cool and lots of people enjoy living in them” which in and of itself dismantles alot of rightwing talking points

The rich underpay workers because they think we're all suckers OR phoning it in as much as they do, but aren't as good at it. BUT, AI bots are *exactly* as convincing at generating meaningless strings of words as most CEOs, so the wealthy foolishly find their touted capabilities convincing.

This is what supposed "educationalists" are currently raking in money for suggesting we force-feed to millions of students at a stressful time in their young lives.

I don’t even have words for this. One of the 2 guys responsible for this mass death wants a peace prize and the other wants $1trillion to be a bad CEO.

"NOW do you dumb people understand why we needed a Ballroom right the fuck away?" "You guys know we all used the Death Ball summoning orb during my first term, right? What did you think that was about?"

Instead of paying Elon Musk $878 billion MORE dollars this year, Tesla could instead give EVERY ADULT in America $3,500 bucks and just pocket the leftover $3 BILLION for themselves. Which of those would be better for the economy and their brand perception?
