We have spent several days watching money pour down the drain

Never stops being awesome that like every other country on earth does universal health care and we're just like, never going to consider it

Tuberville leaving the Senate is this guy’s version of the old insult “you’re not the dumbest guy alive but you better hope he doesn’t die”

maybe the reason he never got around to "bringing hell" to Boston is that nobody ever slipped him a big enough bribe

Funny how conservatives are going to worship Kirk while refusing to repeat anything he ever said for the exact opposite reason that they worship Jesus while refusing to repeat anything HE ever said

"unfortunately we can't get into the White House because our IDs are in our wallets and the wallet inspector is late getting them back to us"

AOC responds to the Tom Homan story.

“Arrest and try every ICE agent” is the moderate democratic platform for 2026. Get the fuck out of Somerville, pigs.

i hope all the ICE cars get ruined by potholes on Highland Ave

Every direct flight should be quarantined at Logan for like 72 hours before coming to the terminal

Testing a theory: reskeet if "every ICE agent will be unmasked and tried for their crimes" would get your vote

Democrats: Trans people have to vote for us or Republicans will exterminate you Trans people: but will you give us rights? Democrats: lol no

I sincerely believe the end of Google Reader was when the Internet started to get worse instead of better

the Beatles but only before they learned about drugs

@mbta.com why why why do half my green line e trains dump everyone off at East Somerville why please tell me why this happens all the time

Once again for comfort and calming I am reading about the Nazi guards and officials who did the right thing when the war was in its last days

If they work it to completely screw over everyone born in the 1970s and only us it will pass unanimously

yes. they have been since 2015. sigh. stop doing this. the germans who voted for the nazis were fine with the death camps. the same is true of the gop and their voters. theyre evil. stop looking for escape hatches for them.

(coughs really friggin loudlyband gestures wildly at @markey.senate.gov and @warren.senate.gov )

We need a bloodbath

But the Democrats are strategically picking their battles! Just not this one. Or that other one. Or any of the ones about THAT subject. Or tomorrow's. But be assured they are picking a battle

we need a name for this...how about the United Sta...wait a minute

I’ve said this before, but Somerville, Massachusetts is basically Richard Scarry’s Busytown.

We warned y’all. Now, here we are.

If you spent even one second of the last decade indulging the free speech claims made by the American right in earnest, I genuinely think you're lacking in intelligence. I do not think you have what it takes to deliver sound commentary on American politics.

Big day for everyone who was just waiting for the moment to forgive Karl Rove and John Yoo

It's all unraveling faster than anticipated, and I say that as a hard-core catastrophizer.

It won't actually collapse if powerful people keep saying yes to it.

we need to actually run some primaries outside of Mamdani in NYC - which folks are spinning as hard as they can as "well Andrew Cuomo sucks" (he does) - the only place we see the depth of Dem discontent at the moment is polling throw a few of them out and it'll start to get real attention

Old Enough to remember when the destruction of Buddhist monumental architecture in Afghanistan was unequivocal proof of the subhuman barbarity of the regime there.

not an exaggeration to say I am WEEPING with laughter at this reply from someone who hadn't seen that Robert Redford died today

Guys thank you for allowing me to fly you to my private island. Have fun but please respect my boundaries vis a vis minors trafficking. That’s just for me, sorry. Help yourself to ANYTHING in the fridge tho

What a touching moment tonight as Morgan Wallen stopped his show in Orlando to have the crowd join him in a moment of silence for Robert Redford and then they all did a sing along to the theme from Brubaker

I never have a good feeling about these but I really don't have a good feeling about this one

the mummy is immediately being floated by Democratic leadership to run for Senate in a vital swing state

called both my senators today to leave the comment that when the republican administration is threatening a crackdown on dem voters and shrugging off the murder of dem politicians, and the dem leadership is talking about bipartisanship, then i don’t even understand what the party is for

Good point, it would be irresponsible to speculate whether Trump ordered the Kirk murder to take heat off the Epstein files and provide a pretext for Miller's vile plans. So I won't speculate that that's exactly what happened

Actually stopped for a second to wonder if all the leading Democrats have been rounded up and jailed and how exactly we would know if that happens

For the record. My posts were not even about Kirk directly, but about America's apathy towards political violence, and the coddling of white male shooters and hate peddlers. I was fired because I mentioned race: white men and violence-- that was my "gross misconduct."

much more true than it used to be: legacy media outlets mostly only have the power that other influential people give them. No one watches Morning Joseph except Democratic members of Congress. Nobody has to care what's in the WaPo opinion section

But we mustn’t compare them to Nazis.

We’ve been living through 72 nonstop hours of this exact tweet

This week has really crushed my last dregs of hope that legacy news organizations can become capable of meeting the moment.

in the time it takes to read this you could probably do about ten word searches from McDonaldland tray liners and it will exercise your brain about one million times more

u guys seemed pretty sure just a little while ago tbh

A lot of lone nuts with no coherent political philosophy seem to be very closely related to one specific political philosophy

Whether you're indifferent to his death or using it to score political points you notice nobody actually mourning him
