Elon Musk fancies himself some kind of maverick technologist superhero. But he’s no Tony Stark. He’s PHONY Stark. He’s the one the Avengers defeat at the end of the movie.

this is an act of unspeakable violence. it benefits no one, it doesn’t move a number on a balance sheet. it only guarantees that every one of these incarcerated transgender people will be tortured.

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

The midterm elections are in 622 days. Democracy doesn’t run on vibes. Do something that matters. ☎️ Call your representative and urge them to protect your IRS data from Elon. https://5calls.org/issue/musk-doge-irs-data-privacy/

Good news, everyone! You get to do whatever you want! As long as you say you were trying to save the country, it’s all legal now.

Trump’s MAHA Commission announcement mentioned ADHD medications as a burden for US kids and a “dire threat.” Not mentioned: FIREARMS, the leading killer of US children over age 1. Shocker.

Jesus never called his followers to defend Christianity, a “Christian nation,” or even their Christian churches. Jesus called them to defend the poor, the oppressed, and the hurting. Stop manipulating Jesus for the benefit of a few. Get to feeding, healing, and peacemaking.

The reason conservatives don’t want people learning about the Tuskegee Airmen is that their story completely destroys the racist ‘DEI bad’ narrative.

Nazis: "that's a nazi salute" Historians: "that's a nazi salute" Average person: "that's a nazi salute" The Media: "Elon Musk makes odd gesture throwing his heart to the crowd."

Those salutes were EXACTLY what you think they were.

TikTok was never going anywhere. The TikTok creator gave millions to Trump and they orchestrated this whole PR stunt just so Trump will be seen as a 'hero' to young people. It was literally the Kidz Bop version of the Reichstag Fire

No wonder Trump likes him.

It was another day of fierce winds gusting to 65 mph in mountainous areas of Los Angeles and Ventura counties, but weather more conducive to firefighting operations is expected soon.

To Mike Johnson, Thou shalt not ‘impose conditions’ on disaster aid to California. California is the 6th largest economy in the world. If thou fuck around, thou shalt find out.

I'm a believer in smart policy, but all the finger-pointing in the LA firestorm about hydrant flows and LAFD budgets seems like arguing about the adequacy of Hiroshima's 1945 building code standards. It's a way to evade the big questions.

Now that Meta is actively rolling out its content policy changes, we are deeply concerned that they will harm vulnerable people. If the company truly values free speech—and its users—it’s moving in the wrong direction.

Democracy means allowing the peaceful transfer of power even when your side loses, in case anyone needs a reminder.

So it turns out the Cybertruck bomber guy blew himself up because he believes in Trump and Musk so much. He thought the visual of a burning Cybertruck under a Trump sign would ignite a wave a masculinity. What a fucking moron.

Jimmy's here in Heaven, and let me tell you, it's rare to meet someone who got the 'love thy neighbor' part so right.

Someone called this mass exodus from Twitter ‘the fall of the Broman Empire’ and I died laughing. 💀

Nice to see @babaramdass.bsky.social has arrived to bring the cosmic giggle.

Hello, Bluesky world…let’s see how this goes.
