Are the weather reports like wildly different to anyone else? Like I warch one channel and it says it starts at 5 am and a website says 6 pm? I feel like the reports used to be somewhat consistent. Slight variation, not 12 hrs Wonder if the gov shutting down the weather agencies helped with this?

the feds saying theyll end their campaign of terror against an american city if their demands are met is the biggest domestic scandal of my lifetime

I wish Dems would have voted to give Dems in Washington more power than just being the minority in Congress and Senate. They only have the power to do what we give them. So don't blame our politicians.

I dont know which leftists need to hear this, but if you're staying home in elections, it makes your path much harder. Gop wins set the nation back and normalizes the far right. Gop wins make dems look like the rational solution and your ideas look more extreme.

The time to prevent the damage was on 2024. Telling Dems the only acceptable answer is to abolish is is simply stupid. They don’t have the votes to make that happen.

Talking to the left about actual political function is SURREAL. Theyre convinced that everyone loves their ideas. That they can will all races. But that somehow people have made everyone hate them and they have no chance. And they're just 100 percent stuck in this purgatory of political inaction.

NEW: Jaylen Brown and the NBPA condemned the killings in Minneapolis this past week. “Our players, we don’t stand for it. We demand accountability." “Something needs to be said.” www.celticsblog.com/articles/130...

To secure social security we will need to fully rebuild the system. Billions of dollars of work because trump hired hackers.

This "liberals just want to drink mimosas at lunch" insult the left does is wild. How dare people have some normalcy under better leadership! And plenty of folks who drink mimosas at lunch still do good work snd help others, but no one can have some fun? No peace for anyone?

In the middle of a Depression he would be saying how great everything is and how much we should thank him.

Yeah, like, I'm not saying Democrats don't have to do *anything*. But fundamentally since it's them or the Republicans, all they need to do is be better than Repubs. Which they already are by reasonable standards. So if we still choose Repubs, we need to start being honest about what that says.

I would bet there's 20 stories a day like this talking about critical systems most people have no clue exist, and how trump is dismantling them. And it goes under the radar because of the insane huge shit he does. And its going to be a painful, long process to fix it back.

After the Boston Massacre, the soldiers responsible were arrested and received fair trials. King George recalled the regiment to England, and then American leaders were like “good, that was enough, we’ll remain your loyal subjects forever…” wait, that’s not right…

Hey... until the "voting isnt going to save us" folks figure out what is going to save us, I say we vote in the meantime. It's still wild they cant seem to figure out how to do an organized national boycott.

when they ask you why you’re not friends with that one person anymore

I just had a person who seemingly wants to have a revolution demand that I start it for them, when it's not my idea? How odd? I don't think that's how revolutions work.

Oh primary season is starting, who y'all got in dem texas senate? www.texastribune.org/2026/01/15/e...

The left on bs: how can liberals think that the system is going to save us? We must destroy our systems! Also the left: Do nothing and apparently waiting on chuck shumer to lead the revolution.

Remember the Bundy insanity during the Obama years? Armed guys occupied a federal office and one of their buddies took position with a sniper rifle aimed at federal agents? Exactly how many of those guys were shot and killed?

Sometimes I feel like the left is very individual based... Which is ironic for supppsed collectiveists. They're very bad at working with each other. Instantly will subdivide over small issues and rarely seem to put the actual greater good above thieir ideas.

God I would be so despressed if I were a leftist. They're so angry at dems. Yet so resigned in zero ability/path to form their own effective party. The fact is, if dems are that bad, you can win races. And you can raise money. Maybe not enough to challenge every seat, but deep blue ones. 1/2

The nurses are pissed

The left: WE MUST MAKE ALL THESE CHANGES TO EVERY BIT OF THE SYSTEM. Also the left: We can't vote to do any of it. It must be done with pure magic and happen with zero effort, instantly. We will never ever take steps to get there if any work must be done over any amount of time.

Folks talk about a general strike and BS can't even stay off paramount+.

Me: What is this thing about alex horn old? He doesn't seem that old? @alexhorne.bsky.social Ah.. i misread. variety.com/2026/tv/news...

Does the left really understand the political situation here? Trump is horrible all that, may not have elections obviously, but... if we do... There are some key points about the upcoming midterms and why they may be pretty critical to the left afterwards: 1/3

True. Also for context, 218 gop reps voted to fund ice, only 1 did not. Less than 1 percent. Less than half 1 percent.

Bluesky needs crisis teams of leftists to go to places where children are being kidnapped, people shot in the face, sexually assaulted and killed at black sites to calmly explain to their friends and relatives that both sides are the same and Kamala Harris would have done the exact same thing.

HOLY SHIT. Democrats now have a TWENTY-TWO POINT advantage on the general ballot. Dems had a 14-point advantage leading up to the 2018 election which netted us 41 seats in the House alone.

Wow, folks are freaking out over this winter storm coming up. I just got a text talking about an "ice appocalypse menu" at a local resatuant for takeout bake at home meals. Lol

100 percent detatched from reality. If i had money still in the market i would pull it out now, because this is all going nowhere good.

The left doesn't really care if the dems try or fail, they can mock dems either way. The critic who has nothing on the line. The left can push hard for exteme positions, which feel good during crazy times. And if dems do them and it fails "why did you do that? It would obviously fail!"

Lol www.mentalfloss.com/food/candy/k...

100 percent trump is letting the cat out of the bag. Any strategic advantage greenland has, iceland also has. They're making plans for next steps after greenland and trump got them flipped in his head. Coming soon.

Really wild on here. Folks run up to call me a facist for voting dem in comments. And I say "at least I vote". And then they get furious and say they vote and work as a volunteer for the dem party and on and on. So... why did they work for the "fascists?" This seems insane?

It is SURREAL to see people still defenidng choices to not vote against trump. After all we've seen. And nothing positive being gained from it. I feel like I'm visiting someone in the hosotial with 3rd degree burns all over and they're saying "I'd touch the hot stove again!"

I keep seeing this "democrats recently voted to fund ice" idea? Which seems to be a straight lie?
