There’s a weird thing on this website and lots of left-wing subcultures, where people love to throw around “liberal” as an insult, but from what I can tell liberals voted overwhelmingly against Cuomo and are rallying behind Zohran now.

The people of Los Angeles are not escalating this.

I was arrested by the LAPD for protesting in 2016. I'm pretty sure they let me out early because I was annoying. So that might be useful information

As someone who lives in Los Angeles, don’t let social or mainstream media gaslight you into thinking there’s a violent uprising taking place here. The Trump administration is trying to punish this state and this city. He’s also setting a precedent to unleash troops on Democratic cities.

The More You Know…💫

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

I used to respect the office of the president regardless of who occupied it. But after what SCOTUS did to the office of the president, I don’t respect the office, either.

the frenzy over the hunter biden pardon is a good reminder that the press knows how to make something a scandal and has decided that nothing trump does is truly deserving of that treatment

It’s really disheartening to see trans users having to step back from Bluesky because of the influx of transphobic harassment. Trans posters built the culture of this platform and it would behoove cis allies to advocate for their safety as Bluesky expands and they get targeted

Huge win from @franzanth.bsky.social creating a Content Scraper Blocklist: bsky.app/profile/cont... It's a blocklist for the kinds of engagement bait accounts that repost stolen content, often with misleading captions.

A rap battle is two men writing poems about each other

i could be wrong about this — i’ve been wrong before — but i believe that all speakers have very tiny, exceptionally talented musicians with extraordinary artistic range living inside of them. again, i might be wrong and if i am then that’s on me

Mike Johnson

This needs to be said, loud, and often.

Look, it's obviously bad that Trump won, but what if Pete Buttigieg is going to have enough free time to start a podcast with me now?

So let me get this straight. If you apply for a job at a grocery store, you have to undergo a background check. But, if you apply to be Director of National Intelligence, you don't? Got it.

All others will fall short to this one.

New #JWST image just dropped 🔭🐡🧪

Well, I’ll never be asked to sing Christmas songs at the psych ward again Apparently, “do you hear what I hear”, was the wrong choice?

Metal: Everything sucks, but I have my rage. Punk: Everything sucks, but I'll focus my anger. Rap: Everything sucks, but I know how to survive. Folk: Everything sucks, but there is beauty. Ska: Everything sucks, let's ignore it. Emo: Everything sucks, and I miss you.

Pamela Hayden will retire from voicing Milhouse and Jimbo Jones on ‘THE SIMPSONS’ after 35 years.

Yes, libraries are invaluable for their collections and public services they offer, but also social contact without the expectation to interact with anyone or spend any money is so important to so many people

I’m trying to re-home a small poodle that barks a LOT. If interested let me know and I'II hop over my neighbor's fence and get it for you.

arm angle vs vertical movement for four-seam fastballs, 2024 season:

can't believe this still comes up, but this is your reminder that transgender access to public bathrooms does not cause safety issues (JAAPL 2018, Sexuality Research & Policy 2019). If anything, harassment and violence often go the other way.

i swear to god circles are some of the roundest shit i've ever seen in my life

They don’t know how to read a clock, but they definitely know when it’s five minutes til dinner.

I may not seem like much to you now but as soon as I’m done with these LASIK tutorials on YouTube, you’ll see. You’ll all see.
