After so many shameful low points from him and for our country, this one is uniquely embarrassing and dangerous for all Americans. This is no way to speak to anyone. Especially not to an audience of world leaders who are guests of our nation and our great city of New York.

Did anyone check on Carrie Coon?

Ooof. I wept.

Good morning from off-leash hours in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, where the dogs run free.

Eight months in, and Trump/Vought have already accomplished implementing 47% of Project 2025, per this tracker: www.project2025.observer/en

Project 2025: confiscate and consolidate farmland as farmers go bankrupt.

Remember when Trump kept lying that he had nothing to do with Project 2025?

Trying every day to inspire young girls (who didn’t ask to grow up in all this mess) & just making silly stuff that will hopefully bring them some joy, too.

Tim Walz: "I've been telling people since January it's going to get worse before it gets better, but it is going to come to an end. History is not going to be kind to these people. History is going to remember them for what they're trying to do. It's not what they're going to get done."

WORLD PEACE We decided that the thing we had in common was Love. And from Love came Peace. So we decided to work for World Peace. #powertothepeople

Somebody Somewhere needs this right now.

Well this is very sweet: www.npr.org/sections/the...

This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

Kash Patel’s FBI puts two pounds of methamphetamine in the incinerator at an animal shelter, sending 14 people to the hospital, and exposing some 75 cats and dogs to the narcotic. www.bbc.com/news/article...

So the engravings on the bullets were HOMOPHOBIC.

Good morning from Prospect Park #brooklyn #nyc

“She felt that if a rule didn’t make the world a better, fairer, more beautiful place, then it was her duty to break it” is maybe not a message you’ll find in other kids magazines, but @kazoomagazine’s comic on the Godmother of Punk, Vivienne Westwood, says all that and more. (🖍️ Katie Skelly)

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

It's always so much worse than we imagined. How can we still be so surprised?

I loved it. Our theater was not this loud but I still loved seeing it on a big screen. I love that my daughters know every word, too.

If you’re still defending your decision to actively undermine VP Harris, know that you will continue to be dragged until the end of days.

Rape is a crime against democracy in the most immediate sense of equality between individuals and the premise that we’re all endowed with certain inalienable rights. Most rapists operate on the premise that they can not only overpower the victim physically, but can do so socially and legally....

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Just a note that they wouldn’t be doing this if they didn’t believe they will make this much money by using these copyrighted works and cannot make it without using them.

Kids books from 1920s & 1930s spend quite a bit of time talking about washing hands, & avoiding germs. Seems they believed germs were real, 100 years ago. (Was this when America was GREAT and HEALTHY?) I haven’t known what to do w these old books, but perhaps they need to be re-issued.

He literally is wheezing and gasping as he destroys our nation's public health care system.

First day of school for NYC public school kids! Here's hoping they leave the house w this energy. I love this so much: www.tiktok.com/@coachbalto/...

Pritzker: "Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next?"

One of my Supreme Court reform takes is they should be completely barred from taking any outside income (incl. publishing deals) and it should be particularly frowned upon, normatively, to be writing books. Memoirs are for writing after you retire, not five years into a lifetime appointment.

Bitcoin in 5 years.

I really hope this becomes the black eye it deserves to be www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

My friend is friends with them and reposted this Minnesota nice can also be Minnesota strong

saying “i told you so” has never felt more joyless

I don’t understand how losing one single child wasn’t the final straw. Why are we constantly letting this happen to our children

It’s a real stroke of genius to replace most of DC’s landscaping workforce, now scared to leave their homes, with labor by military forced to take leave from their jobs in other states

This is heartbreaking, terrible, so so so dumb.

Among all the other things, "The President has screwed things up so badly that the world's other rich countries won't deliver mail to us anymore" really should end it immediately.

You will surprised to learn that yes that is a good idea.

It sounds conspiratorial to suggest that Vladimir Putin told Donald Trump behind closed doors to launch an assault on mail-in voting in elections administered by the states, and Trump immediately set about mobilizing federal power to do it… but that is literally Trump’s account of what happened.

So deeply embarrassing for the United States. Trump legitimized Putin and his illegal war on the world stage and got absolutely nothing in return. Not even a single step toward peace. Everyone involved in this charade should be ashamed.

Firing and demoralizing feminized jobs as enemies of the state while brazenly bribing men with violent jobs that almost instantly puts them into the middle of middle class is very basic gendered warfare. Fulfilling the manosphere’s promise.

Are you guys the only alpha males who can save western civilization or are you afraid of Manhattan Just Can you pick please

my dad was always saying this

In authoritarian crackdowns, it’s important to randomly ensnare some people whom one would think would be safe, so that everyone is at least a little bit afraid that something could happen to them. The regime scales up its power of intimidation over a much larger group than those directly affected.

“Stop doomscrolling,” they said. “Go outside,” they said.
