"We'd be the safest country in the world if the world knew we didn't have a gun. Men are not killed because they get mad at each other. They're killed because one has a gun." -- Jeannette Rankin, who died #OTD 1973

Happy Birthday Phoebe Atwood Taylor, 1909, Boston. She is best known for her Asey Mayo books - the "Codfish Sherlock" who investigated crime on Cape Cod. The books are funny, well plotted, and offer a look at a slice of American life at a particular time and place.

When I look back at this time in my life, I will probably be ready to admit that this might not have been the best climate to start my airport workforce readiness technical training consulting LLC. Ah well, you live and learn.

Finnegan is my interpersonal bubble violating dream boat who looks at me like we are in a dreamy Hollywood movie love scene every single day! My husband manages an 1/8th of Finn’s fawning adoration, if that. We do not deserve dogs. My eldest granddaughter thinks Finnegan is her sibling, not a pet

You can’t budget you way out of things costing too much. You deserve to eat good healthy foods. To keep your home at a comfortable temperature. To drive to visit loved ones. You’re not asking for too much.

Minnesota needs these BADLY

Any President that sues his own government, while in office, should immediately be impeached

I miss having a President of the United States.

My little sister invented the funnest game ever created!!! Golf Match!!!!!

So incredibly corrupt. A slush fund for his friends who attacked the Capitol, ogles, etc. - and himself. www.kwqc.com/2026/05/18/t...

The absolute only MAGA with any balls are the women. Sick of Trump and in general white dudes faking it

Metro Surge shooting charges against ICE. About time!

ICE is still bothering Minnesota citizens! ICE OUT NOW!!

Putin is a Nazi war monger and promoter of battlefield rape.

Waste, fraud, and abuse, the Trump family delivered on all three with this stellar product

MAGA men are pro-rape and anti-consent. Epstein files are a GOP jolly jape. Fuck the party that continues to hunt and hurt children www.reddit.com/r/awfulevery...

He is under water and the American public is under his kneeling weight, submerged and begging for air and sunlight. President Trump has proven once and for all time that WHITE MEN ARE NOT SUPERIOR IN ANY MANNER. Worth it, if MAGA misogyny takes a National kick to the dick forever.

Trumps IRS lawsuit and subsequent deal to fund his thugs is another diversion from the Epstein files!! Anything to make noise and drown out the victims voices in the media!

We demand that the survivors of Epstein receive reparations for the crimes committed against them! Do your job!

The Epstein files changed me forever. I read them in painstaking detail over months, realizing in real time that we are not ruled by laws equally applied. We are ruled by wealth, access, and protection networks. America is a syndicate. I’ll never get over it, so don’t ask me to.

Remember: If your county votes tomorrow it is ILLEGAL for cops to stop you coming and going to polls to vote. Also, your employer must give you four 4 hours to vote while the polls are open if you are scheduled. So you must get off early in most cases. It is the law.

Was raised Evangelical by a charismatic Catholic and I am not even slightly surprised that this event did not take place in 1998, it took place this week. In the USA www.reddit.com/r/religiousf...

*Not* The Onion.

I am a writer. I write flash fiction, weekly stories that I post to my Patreon page, some of them as a series and some of them as stand alone scenes. I’ve written over 100 of them at this point. I even self-published some into a novelette. And yet I still don’t feel like an author.

Minneapolis BROKE ICE. I couldn’t be more proud of my metropolitan area. FYI—protesters are still protesting every day at the main federal government building here.

I see no difference between the confederate flag and the surrendering flag. Both represent losers and are pure white.

Never give in to the temptation to fit the fuck in

The artwork, "Relaxation," by Serbian artist Alexandra Djokic, is a contemporary figurative painting. Born in 1970 in Belgrade, she is a painter, composer, and sound designer. Her style blends modernism, impressionism, and pop art, focusing on human figures and underwater swimmers.

Trump is a coward and a traitor to our nation.

When a federal agency tasked with protecting all Americans decides to mandate a specific religious worldview, it ceases to protect democracy and begins to threaten it.

“Short-term pain.” Tell that to the Uber driver who can't afford to show up to work with gas prices so high. Tell that to the retired couple who just skipped their dinner. And tell that to those who are being forced out of retirement to cover their electric bill.

Comey: “The president of the United States cannot use the Justice Department to target people because he wants to retaliate against them. We just can’t operate as a republic if that happens.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

End all abortions and most rape!

Hawaii just enacted a law that effectively neuters Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live.

BREAKING Moscow under attack with more than 500 drones and Putin is hiding in his bunker. The targets included Moscow’s Sheremetyevo International Airport and military installations.
