This *exactly*. Damn. 😡

there's my political party right there ⬇️

Of course women don't like the Cybertruck. Women only want one thing, and it's a Volkswagen Beetle.

Republican officials have spent years psy-oping themselves into thinking that there are no sincere, good faith liberals or progressives anywhere in America. So no wonder they're totally unequipped to deal with a large crowd of normal people waving American flags.

A very Happy Battle of Hastings Day to all of you who celebrate! Gonna go wrap myself up in a tapestry and partake in a flagon of mead or two…

we'll be a whole lot better citizens of the world when lose the idea that we're so speshul

I'll be at this one in downtown San Francisco. October 18th. Find one near you and go!

this is the heart of the matter

Needless to say this is pervasive on the right and it's why the movement is totally morally, intellectually, and spiritually bankrupt. Disqualified from holding power on principle

Most morally offensive part of hegseth's speech was the idea that manliness and courage consists of bullying and abusing people weaker than you rather than standing up for justice against people more powerful than you. Real andrew tate shit

4 of my 5 uncles, cousins, my dad, and my older brother have served in the US military. Today's display was beyond appalling; truly disgraceful.

Wordle 1,557 2/6* ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 I have a standard opening word that uses 3 vowels. If that word is incorrect, then I have a standard 2nd word that uses the other 2 vowels. Voilà!

From the Mahabharata: "That is a well-governed state where women, adorned with all dress and ornaments, and unaccompanied by men, can move freely and fearlessly in its roads and lanes."

I won't believe we're on the road back to our democracy until *every* Democrat is saying exactly this to every member of Trump's gov't. "Lawyer up. Preserve documents. And be prepared to answer questions."

/7 SCOTUS, the Federalist Society, the entire academic and intellectual infrastructure that brought us here: they're nothing but pretentious Trumpers. At least the guy in the MAGA hat and "fuck your feelings" t-shirt is honest about who he is. These people are not.

Wordle 1,537 2/6* Whoa! 😄 ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Excellent analysis. I have 1 quibble: Democrats who understand this and act like it will lead us out of this quagmire. (Democrats who don't understand this are likely to "win" anyway and the quagmire will remain. 😭)

@governor.ca.gov Let's do this too

To everyone intoning "this is a tragedy" about the shooting in Minnesota, please stop. The floods in Texas were a tragedy. Hurricane Katrina was a tragedy. Mass shootings are a fucking horrorshow.

"You're just not looking closely enough" needs to be shouted at all the doomers moaning "[bad thing] is being normalized / ignored by everyone". Nope! Every day, *thousands* are out in the streets proclaiming "this is not okay!" It's fine to include that info in your assessments!

Today, I turn the funniest age. Although I'm willing to bet that it'll be even funnier when I turn 420. 😀

I'm attending Indivisible's event, “Tesla Takedown” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

just like you guys, i put my pants on one leg at a time, leaning against a wall, losing my balance, falling to my knees, yelling “FUCK”, rolling over onto my butt, turning back onto my knees, trying to get back up, grabbing the TV stand for support, attempting to catch the TV, yelling “FUCK” again,

Dear everyone (esp Dem leaders) saying "it's a distraction" abt Trump executing an illegal takeover of DC: PLEASE STOP. Everything Trump does is in furtherance of his only goal: complete impunity from all laws, customs, norms and morality. (cont.)

Noah Berlatsky, as usual, lays it out precisely and says what needs to be said. Please support his writing - a mere $30 for an entire year! - because his views are always interesting and worth your time.

Leaders who are sympathetic to the call of bigotry and exclusion do not have my support, and that’s just all there is to it. Some things are complex. This one is simple.

Yes. Yes.

Comic exaggeration to be sure, but the exaggeration is pretty slight! Still funny, though.

This was the signboard of the dispensary across the street from the Tesla dealership in San Francisco today. 😎

Dear Democrats (& any other politicians still with a functioning conscience), Please be saying ALL of these things, over and over and over. All of you, all these things, all the time. Signed, A Concerned Citizen

ha ha, this is excellent

all i want are televised congressional hearings forcing every doge chud to confront their role in killing hundreds of thousands of people

@dirtysexyhistory.bsky.social Seems a bit in your wheelhouse? Apologies if you have seen this already.

this is exactly what is going on and is the main reason so many are fully PISSED OFF at the current crop of Democrats

Finally some good news!

@2urbles.bsky.social you've probably already seen this but just in case.....!

This, times 1,000,000.

absolute yes to this

Judson Memorial Church (New York), instructing us that “if empathy is a sin, sin boldly.”

Is it too late to give Sacha Baron Cohen an Oscar for this? Not a damn lie told. 🇺🇸

There are a number of great suggestions in this thread (pls read!) but this one resonates. Distinguishing "what is momentarily legal from what is eternally legitimate" must be our North Star, the prize we keep our eyes on.

I don't care the President used the word "fuck." I figure most of them have used that word. I do care that HE's the one who doesn't know what the fuck he is doing.

Every billionaire is a policy failure. Abolish billionaires.

One bit of urbanism that caught my imagination and I've always remembered: Design a city that works for women -- where women can move freely & independently, without fear -- and you will have a city that works for everyone.

because *of course* men have the right to determine what makes women happy 🙄
