"loose nuts" is exactly right

White supremacy and misogyny are baked into the American experiment. The gutting of the Voting Rights Act is abhorrent. Also, James Baldwin is one of the greatest authors ever—I’ll die on that hill. Sit with this #CupOfJoe and read.

Hmm.........

All the major school districts in North Carolina are closed for May Day. Teachers organized and got school boards to close!

Yay 👍

Captain Bonespurs stood in front of Christina Koch and boasted that he could have been an astronaut because “it’s easy”. Koch has degrees in Electrical Engineering and Physics, a Master’s in Electrical Engineering, 328 days in space, and 6 spacewalks. He’s not a genius. He’s a fucking moron.

We must do both. And you don't know what will happen.

Today's catastrophic decision in Callais makes state courts more important than ever. GA has two supreme court seats up on May 19. The outcome holds huge consequences re gerrymandering, election subversion, and repro freedom. @benwikler.bsky.social, Lavora Barnes, and I discuss why: bit.ly/4uamW0Q

I had the opportunity to confront Pete Hegseth's bigoted spiritual mentor, Pastor Doug Wilson, and call him out on his history of hate, his misreading of the Bible, his hijacking of Jesus, and his cosplay Crusading. It was worth it.

We can learn from the Hungarians. Péter Magyar presented evidence of elite corruption to discredit the government's integrity. He built grassroots support. Magyar avoided culture war debates and promoted economic restoration.

Re last RT: I don't believe the fascists are CAPABLE of having fun. The "enjoy something fun" part of their brain doesn't work. If it did, they would go have fun instead of whatever the fuck they're doing now. All the more reason for the rest of us to have fun as hard as we can.

One thing I know for sure: The Dems must begin prioritizing what to work on right now.

Then show all of us on camera, you liars.

a just and loving god would have let Hilary Mantel live to hear “the pope is weak on crime”

New episode with @therickwilson.bsky.social youtu.be/cwLy5F39gpk?...

This is the culmination of SIXTEEN YEARS of dogged work by everyday Hungarians. You think that felt hopeless sometimes? I'm sure it did. 👏 Don't 👏 give 👏 up 👏

Everyone involved in running concentration camps must be prosecuted.

VOTING LAW ALERT🚨 NEW HAMPSHIRE: Starting in June, students can no longer use their school ID to vote. The good news is, we can help you get a FREE ID for voting! Call or text us at 866-432-8683 to get started. Help us spread the word! 🗣️

My point is that congressional hearings and votes are news. Campaign messaging is not. Republicans figured this out years ago. Democrats keep treating official government functions like distractions from the "real" strategy instead of recognizing they ARE the strategy.

If you are looking for something other than more bad news I give you this

We agree that the DOJ should investigate....

Trump, with Melania standing right next to him: "Our great First Lady, who's here someplace. Let's see. I think this is our First Lady."

Sparing a thought for Flat Earthers, who are having the worst week of their lives.

PHOTO OF THE DAY: Perhaps of the greatest photos ever taken. Captured by the crew of Artemis II this morning, looking at all of us through the window of the Orion capsule. The outline of the window is faintly visible in the photo. Breathtaking. (📸 NASA)

"Nice" means doing whatever he wants.

This was as purposeful and powerful as a rock concert gets in 2026. And arguably the most deeply impactful performance Springsteen has given in the Twin Cities since his 1975 debut, writes critic Jon Bream.

I can't believe kids today have devices. I remember for my birthday I got a kite.

So pathetic.

March. Impeach. Convict. #NoKings

The frog squad came to encourage protesters at #NoKings in Washington DC!

De Niro: Every morning when I get up, I reach for my phone to look at the headlines of the day, and for some time now, I start every morning depressed about the latest outrage from our would-be king. I mean, it’s amazing—every fucking day there’s something new and crazy, but it’s different today…

Anyone who called Hilary Clinton or Kamala Harris "the lessor of two evils", should apologize to the world.

Trump praises ICE agents in odd post and gushes over their ‘much larger, and harder, muscles’

YOU were so funny @paulapoundstone.bsky.social 🐈‍⬛

The criming continues

It should be illegal for a secdef to say this.

He is not rich because he's smart.

Great interview.

In a survey of 1,000 hiring managers, 59% say they emphasize AI’s role in layoffs because it “is viewed more favorably by stakeholders than saying layoffs or hiring freezes are driven by financial constraints.” Only 9% said AI had fully replaced any roles.

I don't make the rules.....

Who does this?

Another cuckoo. jfc

A company is not growing if it isn't profitable.

We are so so so close to House Speaker Hakeem Jeffries — so much closer than people realize!

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for
