"In his mind, it’s his money. He can shower it on people he likes. He can pick and choose what government program he’d like to rescue. He can cut checks if he sees his approval ratings plummet. But at no point will you be able to accurately trace the money coming in and the money going out."

I could have gone my entire life without watching an AI slop video of the president of the United States of America piloting a diarrhea jet, but NO.

This is how every Democrat should be talking about trans rights. At a minimum every one from California, NYC, etc.

The English Revolution was in no small part sparked by King Charles I routing around parliament to find everything he wanted through non/legislative means, despite that being why Parliament exists. Over a century later, American colonists aware of this explicitly gave their Congress power to stop it

Obviously Palestinians are far and away the primary victims of Israel's genocidal war undertaken in the wake of the October 7, 2023 attacks. And no one should take that away. But there is a part of me furious at the Israeli government for stealing away my ability to just grieve as a Jew.

What the fuck do you mean I got a longer prison sentence than Diddy

a heartwarming story of how being an unethical and talentless hack is no barrier to success when you are willing to endlessly flatter the wretched views of rich dipshits

AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance However, they are weaker than they look…

Fuck. This. Shit. Should be immediate impeachment and removal

The debate around what is or isn’t “cancel culture” really just obscures a simple truth that it’s BAD to be massively racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic and it’s GOOD to speak out against injustice. Some things are good and some things are bad and it’s okay to say which you think are which.

Also, remember that at this time the administration is targeting a ton of perceived enemies because they may have made a misstatement (or maybe didn't really) on a mortgage application to no actual benefit. “For my friends everything, for my enemies the law”

It's bullshit that I agree with David Frum. Things shouldn't have sunk so low that we've reached our level of agreement! We should be in the realm where we disagree on every issue in the news!

What an effort, what a season. Heartbreak 💔 but next season is gonna be lit 🔥 #GoValks #ballhalla

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

It's wild to me how ostensibly smart people cannot/could not/will not see what is so obvious. @mmasnick.bsky.social nails it. And my hunch is we'd be a better society if the Very Serious People with the Very Serious Ideas opened their fucking eyes. www.techdirt.com/2025/09/17/t...

I believe this to my core. They're using trans people as a test case to dismantle individual rights in the US.

Elizabeth Holmes and I Talk Business Ethics

Just a reminder: they were never actually against cancel culture. They were against the cancellation of people they agree with or like. They’ve always been enthusiastically in favor cancelling people they don’t like. If you took them at their word you’re a useful idiot.

Today of all days, hats off to @arseblog.com for binning X. Musk can keep his circus. I’ll take integrity over algorithms any day.

"…and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel.”

“Mr. Van Hollen saw a different lesson [from his role in the Abrego Garcia case]. ‘This finger in the wind stuff has got to end. We also need to stop deluding ourselves that the problem is all about messaging, or about volume, or style. We don’t just need to fight. We need to fight for something.’”

Yuuuuuuuuuup

Keidis and Deion would've been the best corner duo in the country if he hadn't found the one way to get ruled academically ineligible at FSU (constantly talking about California)

HEY please consider this RADICAL ORGANIC ALTERNATIVE to chatGPT: ask ME your questions and *I* will give you made up nonsense that sounds just plausible enough to slightly skew your worldview. It's free, it's easy, and it's environmentally friendly!

The greatest threat to public health today in the U.S. is the leadership of RFK Jr. — he must resign. I join in deep solidarity with the 1,000+ current and former Health and Human Services employees who have called for RFK Jr.’s resignation abcnews.go.com/amp/Health/1...

These words by Kavanaugh will appear in future history books in the same chapters that discuss the Dred Scott decision.

hey im putting something together for my boss for his birthday. yeah can you write a letter or better yet an insane poem or horrifying drawing about the unspeakable crimes you all have committed together

If you think that due process only applies to citizens then ask yourself what you would do if someone accused you of being a non citizen. Either we all have due process or no one does. The Constitution affords the former. SCOTUS has unleashed the latter.

Just had a “GO VALKS! PLAYOFFS 💜” shout-conversation with my neighbors across the street while we both took out the garbage. The whole town is Ballhalla at this point, the fever is extremely real

What a disgrace. This could have been a constructive critique and addition to the progressive movement and instead it’s immediately devolved into whatever the fuck this is

big news: This friday, @sheaserrano.bsky.social and I are sitting down with several trees planted by Aspire.

I’ve studied US drone strikes, I wrote a book called “Drones and Terrorism,” and this Caribbean strike is different. Lethal fire at a non-threatening target in a non-hostile environment on purpose when other means, such as capture, were easily doable, and without even attempting a legal rationale.

Wake up babe, new fave tennis player just dropped

The thing about conservatives who say they’d never end a family relationship over politics is that, like every other thing they say, they’re lying.

Important PSA 🚨 📣

Thank you @replsimon.bsky.social. I call upon my representatives @pelosi.house.gov @schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov to join this call. This is the minimum of our moral responsibility

Words/phrases Democrats should never use: * bipartisan * my Republican friends * real, valid, legitimate, serious, important (to describe issue raised by Republicans) * yea (when voting on Republican bills) * distraction (to describe bad thing Republicans did) * woke (in derogatory sense)
