The centrists in the Senate Democratic caucus saw that the country was rallying to the party in the 2025 elections and resolved that they would do anything they could to kill that momentum.

I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

Lucy is promising that this time she will definitely hold the football.

Oliver, contemplating his life choices.

Please stop touching that web. I’m waiting for 111,000 spiders to swarm out and cover that guy whole. 😱

OVER A MILLION USERS DISCUSS SUICIDE WITH CHATGPT EVERY *WEEK* what the fuck are we DOING here

It’s the same for me and all the teachers in my district this year.

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

really obvious now why trump and the republican party have been working so hard to prevent fair elections lol they know

Trump: "Hear me, President Trump, when I say this: to get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us."

This use of force and brutality, against people who are just standing in line.

star trek and famous art: a thread

No position is ‘extreme’ if the alleged opposition moves towards it.

How is this type of AI slop even legal?

The way he rubs his inhumanity in Americans” face never ceases to stun me. He’s illegally refusing to pay food stamp benefits… …while he throws a ridiculously over the top Gatsby party for his right wing millionaire and corporate friends.

“They were careless people … they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made."

And this is where our country is deporting people?!

I've given my new Senator a lot of shit on here. But I don't think anyone with power has laid out the stakes of what we're facing as clearly as she does right here. And if she's saying this, it's because she feels she must.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

I think about this a lot.

Two things can be true: I can know that that "Star Trek is for Republican men" article is bait, and I can also know that the author of it should be thrown into a volcano.

Over the past week, the president said the DOJ should pay him a quarter billion dollars, bulldozed half the White House to build himself a gaudy ballroom, bragged about murdering civilians in international waters, pardoned some more criminals, directed federal prosecutors to indict his opponents ...

Gov. Pritzker: "They literally did a military attack on a building with a Black Hawk helicopter...You don't arrest an entire building, detain everybody, zip tie children, hold elderly people in a U-Haul for house — U.S. citizens!"

ABC News pulled the satellite imagery of the White House comparing Sept. 26 to today. abcnews.go.com/Politics/new...

Trump's supporters say we call his policies "racist" too casually. But let me tell the story of a new policy - about to be unveiled - that is racist on its face. 1/ A short thread on Trump's reported new "whites only" refugee policy. It's truly vile.

Joe Biden pooped in a toilet like a total cuck. Diarrhea Don puts on his crown and shits all over the American people just like we like. So glamorous, so elite.

Wut

This is THE PRESIDENT posting this video. He is so deeply unwell and unfit for the office he holds, yet the MSM continues to ignore it.

It’s going to take ages to pay all these people

Harrisburg, PA — there are so many older women in banana suits at the Capitol holding antifa signs and none of that sentence would have made sense to me 10 years ago

A Democracy doesn’t so this, but a police state does.

The official slogan of the ‘No Kings’ protests is “I have friends everywhere” from Andor and I may just be a simple God but that is fucking badass.

people who earnestly try to argue that blocking certain accounts deprives u of important opposing viewpoints are assuming these certain accounts are posting in good faith which is a dangerous assumption tbh

would love to know where vought got the authority to shutdown a government agency established by statute

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery. @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Seriously, WTF?

I’ve been sitting with this the last few hours. It’s really hitting me just how fucking depraved you have to be to respond to an inquiry about an abducted child with a screenshot of a post on elon musk’s hellsite smearing this kid who has no ability to defend himself. It’s unfathomable.

Please remember that the disgust people have over Christopher Columbus is not based on some modern, 21st century “woke” ideology, but rather on contemporaneous accounts of atrocities that make many modern genocides appear quaint in comparison. Below, are the accounts of Bartlomé de las Casas.

The Department of Education reportedly fired nearly everyone in the office that focuses on the nation’s children with disabilities in a wave of new layoffs

He got the COVID and flu Vaccines like every 79 year old should this is a good thing. "Cardiovascular age validated by by ECG and found to be 14 years younger than chronological age" is a nonsensical phrase. I am an internist this is not something we do or write in medical reports.

"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7." @timmiller.bsky.social talked to a veteran who ICE wrongly detained and brutalized

Exactly this. These armed men are abusing regular people daily, with no consequences. They grow more forceful and brazen every day.

This is insane. I feel like I’m going insane when I’m watching this. Not just the fact that it’s clearly their fault, but the way a heavily-armed squad of masked thugs immediately jumps into the street and brutalizes the woman they just hit, despite having no idea who she is.
