This👇🏽 deserves to be posted 100 times but I’d be labeled spam.

Donald Trump wanted a commemorative stamp with his face on it but the focus group said 65% of Americans would spit on the front side and the other 35% would lick the backside.

Based AF. This is the kind of Christianity we need. Follow the admonition of Paul, that faith without works is dead.

Let me take this moment to say "GNU Sir Terry Pratchett, mind how you go" Both because he is the origin of this quote and he deserves to have his name spoken frequently and forever.

This is a new low for the Trump administration.

Wait... is this the best meme ever made?

In an emotional tribute, Trump thanked the fallen foot specialists who bravely risked their medical licenses so that others facing military service could be free.

Not many people know this, but the song 8675309 is actually threatening people who live in the zip code 75309

Every day I will marvel at how hard James Comer tried without success to prove that Biden was tangentially corrupt and how little of a shit he gives that Trump is demonstrably, outrageously corrupt.

100% perfect image selection. No notes, ABC. Keep up the good work.

Please repeat over and over: “Bending to the whims of a bully will not end his cruelty. It will only embolden him. The response to authoritarianism isn’t acquiescence. Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face.” —Gov. JB Pritzker

I just posted this "fun" fact, but I'll post it again and keep posting it: The last Republican president to *not* preside over the start of a recession was James Garfield in 1881, mostly because he was too busy dying in office to craft any economic policy.

Pete. We all need more Pete. And the stories that get naturally attached to posts when he is mentioned.

Wait till they hear what musk is planning to do with their Social Security

See Erin's second comment in this thread for the timestamped feed of the speech. Aime Wichtendahl is beautifully heartfelt and eloquent in this.

This man is accurate!

And unfortunately BC means they probably paid a LOT for them, and likely can't afford to sell them and get something new (in a few cases, maybe they could if they went back to gasoline, but that has its own political problems - just not ones that get telegraphed loudly)

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

It's hard to know what to say or whether it's even worth adding to the doom - what I will say is buy your trans friends' weird zine, their album, their art game - buy them a beer or a soda or a meal - give them some ko-fi money for doing absolutely nothing. We gotta protect trans kids and adults.

fighthealthinsurance.com This may be the first actually valid use of AI I've seen. Since your health insurance company is probably using AI to deny you coverage, fight fire with fire.

This situation is getting serious....

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget Even Christmas morning!

Ordered car parts from a legit-looking and well-reviewed site the other day. I got an email back that my order had been "flagged for fraud" and that I would need to email them a picture of the front and back of my credit card and driver's license to prove my identity. Umm, hell no? WTF?

I will post this forever...
