Feel like it might benefit the U.S. in some ways if our current position weren't that science is for woke losers.

housing is more expensive now, but also a lot safer. this kind of home was considered cream of the crop in the 1980s

How can this go on for another 3 years?

Ok so the war has already failed on its original merits, caused a new mess that these incompetent administrations did not plan for, and now they are trying to pivot to fixing the mess they made in the process of failing their original goals as their new goal. Total clusterfuck.

The GOP could put a bill to open the TSA on the floor today and it would pass unanimously. They are choosing not to do so.

⚠️ You will not inspire confidence in voters if you are only willing to act on things you know you will win. Members of Congress must take chances to show us that they are aligned for us, willing to fight for us EVEN IF THEY LOSE.

THAT is why Democrats are unpopular! Dem policies are popular, but how they choose to show up in this incredibly dangerous moment is not. People want fighters, and they are paying attention. It's insulting to be told that "we're fighting as hard as we can" we everyone can see they they are not.

You can see why we might be skeptical that Democrats say they are fighting for us when they can't even stand up as a unified caucus and say, "this vile, cruel, lawless, treasonous man should be impeached." The rest of America is noticing, too. TV appearances and social media posts ≠ fighting.

huh. #time_flies ⌛

For Immediate Release. "STAR WARS" SET TO BEGIN PRODUCTION IN TUNISIA ON MARCH 22.

I would read the heck out of a book or article that explained why a disproportionate number of American fascists have been chiropractors. No shade on that entire category of practitioners, but it's definitely a theme that has emerged in my research on the US far right. Article is from 2001.

Anyone trying to ban home gardening is a fascist prick who deserves to eat nothing but unseasoned gruel.

THREAD: Cherise Doyley was in her 12th hour of contractions at the hospital when a tablet was brought to her bedside. On the screen was a Zoom call with a judge and several lawyers and doctors. She was in court, a nurse told her. The reason? For failing to agree to a C-section.

For restorative justice to work: - It must be truly voluntary for the survivor—which means there must be other options available too. - The perpetrator must confess. - There must be recognition of the power imbalance between victim and perpetrator. It is not just a fancy mediation session.

Thank you to everyone who supported this campaign. Together we were able to do things never seen in American politics, to set a new standard from what we should expect from the people who try to represent us. What we built matters, regardless of the outcome. And the work isn’t over.

Burger King ran multiple 'nostalgia' ads during the Oscars, which probably cost a couple million bucks. In-N-Out just got the best ad ever—an Oscar-winning Michael B. Jordan eating and posing at its restaurant—for free.

Anyway here’s a video of Ryan Coogler’s speech for winning best screenplay for Sinners on Jan 13 at the NBR, which he uses to talk about Minnesota and Renee Good and whether or not filmmaking can empower political change

Existence of Mamdani in the media criticism discourse is so useful because it demonstrates what the media could be doing to Trump if they ACTUALLY thought that he was an aberrant threat to our Republic. Not that you need to do this for Trump but: You can just write negative stories based on nothing!

They made them take down the videos because they would cause "reputational damage" to people like this young man, Nathan Cavanuagh, so definitely don't post this all over the internet with the name Nathan Cavanaugh attached, or this guy might suffer reputational damage. This guy, Nathan Cavanaugh.

I dunno man, I think precipitously canceling people's funding caused a lot of damage to other people's careers and lives and reputations and maybe they should live with the blowback. They come from a media ecosystem that makes public lists of insufficiently bigoted professors.

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

Dark money groups are paying influencers to spread attacks about our campaign. Voters deserve to know who is trying to manipulate our election.

My son and I just made some amazing sliders for dinner so I'll say one more time -- if your teen decides they want to get into cooking, do everything you can to make that happen.

HOLY SHIT. A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election. Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?

if i were running dem party comms, all our people would today be talking about the president having a dance party while our soldiers are being shot at while gas prices go through the roof

You cannot tell voters (accurately) this is a fascist regime that is hell bent on destroying us - let alone rely on it (as Dems are) as your GOTV while also voting yourselves to enable the regime.

Exactly 6 years ago-

Yup

If the Dems who win in the 2026 midterms get squeamish about prosecuting this administration, we'll need to elect a bunch of new people running on Nuremberg shit for 2028. This isn't a joke. It's the law. It's justice. Biden let Trump back in the WH and this happened because Joe didn't do his job

If someone breaks the law and nobody enforces it because of the offender’s power, then the law does not apply to the powerful, and the law, subordinated to power, is revealed as illegitimate in its helplessness and/or corruption.

Still crazy that the president’s lawyer spent two days with Ghislaine Maxwell, she “cleared” him of wrongdoing and was almost immediately transferred to a more pleasant prison and nobody in the administration will explain it and the media acts like two large dots are just impossible to connect.

This means that 9-year-old Lucy can deadlift me.

Authoritarians will stop at nothing to feel safe. Since they have no concept of public welfare and consider everyone an asset to be used and discarded, they will easily enter into a military conflict without a long-term strategy, regardless of the casualties it causes.

The number of people who think we can get through the media wars by not out gunning Fox News and instead insisting on boring news is scary

I’m talking about the quieter ones who shrugged and said, Jasmine Crockett cannot win because “Texas isn’t ready,” then call the White guy the safe bet. They rarely led with his actual qualifications. Just comfort level. That isn’t strategy. It’s passive racism dressed up as political realism. 3.

Whether or not you’re running for Congress and trying to seem rugged (and you probably should run, because, look who’s out there) what did your grandpas do for a living?

"Make people dependent enough, and then make it shitty" Still giggling at this hilarious video from the Norwegian Consumer Council "A Day in the Life of an Ensh*ttificator" which seems a perfect embodiment of Silicon Valley and tech generally these days www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4Up...

this is not an amount of money any individual or household should be able to have and we have to abolish both billionaires as a group and the economic system that makes them possible

A country that can instantly fund endless wars but debates every dime for healthcare and education doesn’t have a budget issue—it has a values issue.

The Daily Show reminded us in the montage below how Netanyahu has LIED about the "imminent" threat of Iran obtaining nuclear weapons since 1995. Netanyahu has for years wanted US to bomb Iran. Netanyahu simply found in Trump a moron willing to sacrifice Americans for his cause:

Awful big talk for a guy who lost three f-15s to friendly fire this morning.
