I take Lexapro. I have taken Lexapro for over two decades. The times that I have discontinued taking Lexapro have ended very badly for me. RFKJ is trying to kill millions of Americans like me. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/04/s...

If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed. Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

This photo should be on the front page of every single newspaper in America today.

i love socialism and anyone pushing forward radical left ideologies like this. we need more civil servants in public unions! imagine how many civil servants we could hire if we cut the police budget by even half.

Again: the gun you keep in the home for “protection” increases your risk of homicide by 3-fold, of suicide by 5-fold, and for men, risk of suicide more than 10-fold The second you bring a gun into the home you’ve dramatically increased the risk of death for your family 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Is it too much to ask for us not to have the US government cause chaos, drama and turmoil every single day of the year including holidays and weekends? Can you just leave us alone once in a while?

for those who don’t know, adoption of children and adoption of pets tend to be described in identical language: “forever home,” “gotcha day,” “rehoming,” etc. it is taboo for #adoptees to act against our socially prescribed roles as a rescue objects, forever morally beholden to our saviors.

Counterpoint: In the first 30 seconds before everyone tunes out, call the President a pedophile, remind everyone he's got 34 felony convictions and was impeached for fomenting an insurrection. Get hauled out by security. Remind everyone who and what you're opposing. 1/

The Admin: we love what ICE is doing, we need more money so they can do MORE of it in MORE places in WORSE ways Schumer: we will give you the money if you promise not to do it in worse ways The Admin: no Schumer: I call for bipartisanship in public safety

If you are making lahmajeune in your kitchen, do NOT drop a rolling pin directly on your big toe, because it will hurt all night and the next morning.

tell it to the hague, buddy

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

you guys it’s really easy to have peace. so simple. just let the kidnappers take their victims wherever they want without kicking up a fuss. yes, including the little children. why hadn’t you thought of that

it is true that some Americans waved the flag as they committed unspeakable acts of evil but other Americans waved that same flag marching into battle against their own former slaveowners you get to decide who has the legitimate claim

ill give george w bush a compliment (sort of). he was mocked endlessly on comedy shows (rightly). he never used the federal government to go after those shows. its the lowest of bars, but he's way ahead of trump on that one. sad ass clown.

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

I don't like the death squads

What do these companies have in common? -Cigna -Comcast -General Mills -Allstate -Marriott -Hilton -Walmart -Amazon -Microsoft -Meta All promised after January 6, 2021 to stop funding lawmakers who tried to overturn the 2020 election. And all have broken that promise.

Similarly

The police said she lied about being raped. Then she hit record.

Pelosi: “The President incited an insurrection. We begged him to send the National Guard, they never sent them. This President is trying to re-write history… it was an assault on the constitution of 🇺🇸.”

the unitarian notion of accountability is, in general, very strange as it holds that a single election — the president’s reelect — is more democratically accountable than the rolling process of democratic assent produced by legislative elections and congressional oversight.

The US government is summarily executing people on a weekly basis without telling the American people any of their names or presenting any proof of their guilt, for alleged crimes that do not carry the death penalty in the US.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

A book from the 19th century that depicts the Rhine Valley by creating an impression of three-dimensionality and spatial distance. @MasayukiTsuda2 #globalmuseum #books #travel #19thcentury

Just imagining how much better it would be if ALL news stories about vaccine-preventable illnesses were illustrated with pictures of people with the disease, not pictures of needle injections. If you must show something that people will find scary & unpleasant, make it the disease, not the cure.

Does anyone want a survivorship bias shortbread

That’s right.

these are not even the files lol

i’ve said this before and i remain convinced it’s true, the 2028 platform that would deliver obama 08 results is “i am gonna bring the hammer down on the corrupt self-dealing politicians and their rich friends and there are no sacred cows id give a pass”

One of my earliest moments of radicalization was in 2005 when Larry Summers said that women biologically have less aptitude for science than men. Following that, scores of equally unimpressive people wrote pieces trying to explain or justify his remarks, when they should have called for his removal.

Some folks said we were too harsh in our episodes on on John Forester and Vehicular Cycling. This amazing video from Not Just Bikes suggests we weren’t harsh enough.

Tonight was a very bad night.

A List of Things Said to Have Been Ruined by Women 🧵

Just to note, there is a well documented connection between mass in-person protest and election outcomes. I'm looking forward to the academic papers analyzing No Kings in October and turnout today.

Fractal patterns occur in many places in nature:plants & tree branches,shells,feathers,river deltas... Looking at fractals puts our brains into a relaxed state-we recover from stress 60% more quickly (I teach about this in my classes) Pause to take in the details of my photo-it'll help your brain 🧠

Why are all of these people suddenly following me?

this song has been stuck in my head for weeks so now I'm cursing (blessing) yall with it

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943
