This guy? Who literally said he wants to put civil servants “in trauma?”

Amazing to see the ease with which Johnson lies.

Buncha amateurs. Y’all not no real lot lizards

Flatly untrue: *No legal requirement to cut programs/employees under shutdowns. Never happened before. *In Feb, Vought told agencies to prioritize firing employees deemed non-essential during shutdown to enable DOGE mass firings that occurred before the shutdown. www.opm.gov/chcoc/latest...

Day 2 of the Republican shutdown. Your regular reminders: 1. GOP controls government. They control what bills get voted on and the vote thresholds for each bill. Senate GOP can pass their bad funding bill today if they felt like it. 2. Dems are fighting to lower costs and save healthcare.

I gotta get into my local news. Right now, I’m stuck choosing a medium: Bluesky: Not enough content TV: No RSS: Maybe. Browser: Use as a start page? Podcast: Do they exist? Radio: If I’m in my car…maybe

Tim Walz: "My god, we've got the White House threatening investigations and jail time because an escalator stopped? Walk up the damn stairs!"

Hey big head… lemme holla atcha for a sec 😇🤗check yo DMs!

For more on the Trump official who's been dreaming about this shutdown "since puberty," read @isabelaalhadeff.bsky.social's excellent deep-dive into Russell Vought. He's one of the "key figures leading us into a new and violently authoritarian future.”

Neither the President nor the OMB Director, even though he was also an affiliate of Project 2025, has the authority to "cut" agencies, which are established by Congress - and can only be "cut" by Congress. (Also I see that DJT is now familiar with Project 2025 and is seemingly embracing it.)

Omg y'all brought stupid here from Twitter

I’ll delete my shit right now @developers.google.com

In the current American president, big tech companies found the permission to be the worst version of themselves. They are all-in. Cutting analysis from @cwarzel.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

Billionaire grifters have no shame nor moral compass, even during a genocide. "The proposal suggests a few billionaires who could sit on the board and flags it would include an investment body tasked with generating "real financial returns"." www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

Disgusting

All my skeets get seen by the exact person who will hate it the most

Took me a hour to realize that ain’t no armadillo back with gravy. 😭

Signal has stories? Is this the social media I was looking for?

“They are beneath analysis.” Kiese Laymon.

But also we’re terrified of the subway

I miss the blog era. I miss life before algorithmic feeds. I miss hand selected links chosen by experts and hobbyists. I really should just read a book

It's becoming difficult to hide that a major purpose of the Trump administration is siphoning tax revenues from Blue states and redirecting them into subsidies for Red states. At what point does this become intolerable?

750,000 people under siege in El Fashar, Sudan face starvation or being massacred right now. They’ve trapped. The RSF is intensifying attacks. There’s no where for them to go

At some point, there’s gotta be something else to talk about besides complaining about men

The optics of this is horrible lol

LISA COOK IS TRENDING AS SOME TRY TO REMOVE HER FROM THE FED. LET'S BE CLEAR: ATTACKS ON BLACK WOMEN LEADERS ARE ATTACKS ON ALL OF US. SHE DESERVES TO SERVE AND WE DESERVE A MORE DIVERSE AND EQUITABLE GOVERNMENT. SUPPORT BLACK WOMEN IN POWER! ✊🏿💜

When the subway was first conceived one of the oppositions against it was that it would encourage race and class mixing.

Idk man, Kung Fu Kenny got human trafficker friends too

Yup. Selling policy is just as important as getting the numbers right

This is obviously Tylenol’s fault

I'm in the sad place where every repair on my car costs more than the value of the car. :(

Zohran Mamdani calling it a genocide on The View and getting applause.

CORRECT ‼️‼️‼️‼️ As a millennial why are you worried about keeping coal and oil?? WHERE 👏🏾ARE 👏🏾OUR 👏🏾FLYING 👏🏾CARS 👏🏾 Like we should be upset about too many vehicles in the sky to see the sky. But we’re STILL worried about just breathing clean air 😭

That benefits the wealthy congress members because they can wait it out. Every congress member is beholden to their constituents. You piss them off with the shutdown, you don’t come back after the midterms lol

I think it’s ok to be shocked at how bad this administration is. Like, people shouldn’t be, but if this is what gets us on the same page, let it ride

This how raising cane’s answer you lol

At least Drake and Kendrick kept it on wax, Nicki and Cardi shit getting evil

Monogamy is a curse lol *Puts on Meninist hat*: Men get shamed for leaving relationships and for staying. Stay single brehs, there’s no making anyone happy

What the fuck millennials

#MAGAts tryin to rewrite his-tory as usual....

Bruh lived to post the picture, I think we got a chance

Middle schoolers walked out www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/l...

"Cats purr during inhalation and exhalation with a consistent pattern and frequency… Sound frequencies in this range can improve bone density and promote healing. Purring is a low energy mechanism that stimulates muscles and bones without a lot of energy."

“An MIT Technology Review investigation finds that caste bias is rampant in OpenAI’s products, including ChatGPT.”

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance. Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn. We have been sent here to fight for people.

Tems is a Nigerian Chun-li

This dude is nuts lol www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

AOC: Donald Trump is trying to play this bluffing game of, well, maybe what we're going to do is hold the entire all the federal workforce hostage and fire everybody. Donald Trump has been firing everybody.

That's the definition of fascism from Robert Paxton, one of the preeminent historians of the subject, from his book ANATOMY OF FASCISM which came out more than two decades ago.
