😥 😔 😟

The system is working as intended. I'm tired of centrist democrats who are more beholden to corporations than the huge number of average people who voted for them.

Robert Reich: "Four of the corporations whose CEOs flanked President Trump at his 2025 inauguration have now disclosed that they collectively received $51 billion in federal tax breaks in 2025, much of that from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA)." #ProudBlue

I needed some good news. Star Trek is my happy place.

This is overt racism. Full stop. There’s no ‘misinterpretation’ and no excuse. This is who he is, who he’s always been, and why he should never be anywhere near power again. And there’s a reason the tapes from The Apprentice have never been released.

Trump's secret weapon is that he gives the very worst kind of people permission to be the very worst version of themselves. But the right never understands how anything works. The more extreme they get the more certain it becomes US society/economy will crash & burn.

There's nothing that has happened so far in this admin, that I didn't warn about in excruciating detail in the 1st admin.🤷🏿‍♂️ The last post is from when we narrowly avoided this in 2020... only for centrist dems to screw it up again via racism, and put us right back here for 2024.🤡 They don't learn.

To recap: The people who spent years calling drag queens and librarians “groomers” and complaining about the “deep state,” are now protecting the group of mega-wealthy pedophiles and sex traffickers running our country.

Ya, homoeroticism was only introduced to Star Trek in 2026 by the woke Starfleet Academy...

January seemed to last three years. Then suddenly it's already February.

I said, “I’ll be right back, going to the bathroom,” to my doctor, but didn’t specify which one, so now I’m at home.

Interesting ideas for anyone trying to figure out the MAGA mindset or the abusive mindset; they seen to be identical.

i continue to ask what people are still doing on the fascist white supremacy platform that generates child pornography

Mar A Lago face IS like a drag queen look Over-emphasizing characteristics some consider feminine is the beauty ideal of the MAGA crowd…and amping up features is drag queen artistry I think that’s part of why drag queens trigger them. 🤷‍♀️

To Gregory Bovino: This is what brandishing a firearm at a protest looks like.

An article that seems to strongly imply, if not prove, that capitalism is the perfection of slavery.

ALEX PRETTI’S PARENTS: “He was a VA nurse who cared about people deeply, and he was very upset with what was happening with ICE... kidnapping children, grabbing people off the street — he knew it was wrong. He loved this country." (H/T @katiecouric.bsky.social )

Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS. Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies. AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS. Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

If you didn't catch this segment of @maddow.bsky.social's tonight, I recommend you watch the whole thing. We're seeing both utterly sadistic mass scale horror alongside incredibly inspiring mass displays of humanity. The regime is weak. The people will win.

I continue to believe that the fastest way to get Stephen Miller fired is to convince Trump that Miller's ICE operations are what cost him the Nobel Peace Prize.

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

"Altered brain connection found in people with ME/CFS and Long COVID" Griffith University research using ultra-high-field MRI found people with ME/CFS and Long COVID have reduced brain connectivity during mentally demanding tasks, with significant drops in specific brain regions.

"If the president cannot be constrained, then the next best thing is to constrain the universe of government employees who would have to carry out his commands."

Organizers in Minnesota have asked that the rest of us help turn up the heat on the state's biggest regime-friendly corporations. Call or email Target, Hilton, Enterprise, Home Depot, and Delta Airlines to demand they take action to get ICE out of our communities FOR GOOD.

I hope I live long enough to see this entire regime brought to justice.

Masked government agents are conducting “show me your papers” stops, detaining 5-year-olds to use them as bait, and brutally murdering U.S. citizens. Call it what it is — fascism. History will not look fondly on politicians and so-called "leaders" of this country who stood by and enabled this.

While ICE is killing innocent people, teargassing babies and pastors, and kidnapping our neighbors to ship them off to foreign torture prisons, seven House Democrats just voted with the GOP to give the regime’s secret police even more funding.

When others say that future people could and should choose to be corrected into perfection: not needing glasses, not being larger sized even if healthy, not bald, not allowed to be disabled... I say they're missing the point about a future where everyone is valued and included. LLAP 🖖 #IDIC

once upon a time we learned that "high-functioning" is neither an appropriate nor accurate term for describing those of us who do not fit the mold of what the general public understood autism to look like & so we needed better language to discuss this population culturally & not divide clinically:

She's telling them exactly what they need to hear. These ICE agents think they're immune from laws.

"I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace."

Trumpers may consider these women awful, but educated urban women are the structure holding up much of American life, and they’re definitely deep in the fight against Trump. trib.al/GuXmYdw

Some people confuse "human rights" with "politics." When they say they don't want to talk about politics, they should really say, "My rights aren't threatened yet, and it makes me uncomfortable to acknowledge that the rights of others are being trampled." That is, if they're even paying attention.

Trump uses any violent national tragedy as ammo. He has seized upon ICE shootings, assassinations, mass attacks, and other deadly traumas to stoke partisan division and justify extreme policies and actions.

Trump thought immigration was his superpower. Instead, it’s fueling a leftward cultural shift—and a full-blown backlash he can’t control.

Few patients appeal a health insurance denial, but a little-known process that requires insurers and plans to seek an independent opinion can force insurers to pay for what can be lifesaving treatment. Here’s what experts say you need to know.

📌At his core, Donald Trump is nothing but a weak, fragile baby who was never loved, and has spent his entire life making that everybody else's problem. Taking a secondhand Nobel Peace Prize and calling it his own, has to be the single-most pathetic thing I have ever seen.

Silence is complicity.

Not to be political or anything: But the way I feel for trumpers is the way they feel about the LGBT+ Like.... I don't get why you chose to live like that. And I dont get why we have to see it on TV and I DEF don't want them in schools with our children. Stop being so in my face about it.

What he said: 💯 🎯

This is so wholesome. 😭 🧡 🕊

"the left failed men" arguments are pushed to hide the simple reality that Republicans are the party of male supremacy and it's attractive to a lot of men and boys.

He's so perfect they keep making him redo the test. Right.

i love this photo from the inauguration by the talented @gregpak.net

Ironic that MAGAs think the red pill of awakening in The Matrix symbolizes their unquestioning loyalty to the Republican party, for they are the ones that continue to sleep and are thus cogs in the machine. The red MAGA hat symbolizes their commitment to ignorance.

Link to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social’s inauguration speech for those who don’t want to give the deeply transphobic @nytimeses.nytimes.com any clicks.

As your author announced first,after this brief cold spell (without any single monthly cold); another historic January heat wave is set to kick off: It will rewrite history with an avalanche of records. Expect 90s in Texas with even some Mins >70F. AC is back for some Americans.
