When you suggest banning cars in more places, and people hit you with the knee-jerk "What, do you expect us to go back to riding horses?!"

Knowing about Donald Trump is a proven cause of premature death.

Every time a woman runs for president I hear that she’s too emotional and unstable to make wartime decisions, unlike the men in charge who make really reasonable decisions like bombing kids to death, starting water wars, and poisoning the entire planet

This is what ecocide looks like.

That reminds me. There are only 251 days until Halloween. And it's on a Saturday this year....

"I sometimes feel that I practice Dharma like a 'politician', always negotiating about how much I am willing to give up or do, always trying to protect some territory. I think it means an inability to fully practice renunciation, which is the foundation of the 'path'." ~~Paul Breiter

This is as big a lie as the one about the 2020 election, probably even more dangerous because so many "normie" Republican officials glommed onto it to curry favor with Trump. Corporate media never exposed it, and an uneducated electorate remains confused.

If it happens in the middle of the night, I'm just going lay snuggly in my comfy bed for a while, awash in the dreamy glow of my phone as I doomscroll news of the wonderous event, a smirky smile, basking in the joyful continuous shots of serotonin, adrenaline and dopamine....

Do you think the FBI is in the habit of collecting 6 million files on a person in order NOT to prosecute them? Did Al Capone have 6 million files? The FBI tracking Epstein for decades, collecting info, & sitting on it anyway is unbelievable 😵‍💫. If you don't intend to prosecute, why collect info? 🧵

Republican Congressman Thomas Massie says, Trump is building a personal treasury in Qatar with the money made from the oil stolen by the US military from Venezuela and Iran.

If they can do this to find a dog, they can do this to find anyone. That’s terrifying.

Though I did not watch either halftime show, nor did I watch the Superbowl, I did see many snippets of each halftime show, and from what I saw, in my humble opinion, the "Bad Bunny" halftime show celebrated the beautiful multicultural tapestry that has long come to represent our nation, ...

We should rename Earth. How does Hubris sound? I'm open to suggestions.

Donald Trump insists that his team is so incompetent that even though there are millions of non-citizens voting in every election, they can't find ANY evidence whatsoever cepr.net/publications...

That's it. The question is, when is the point of no return reached for the American people? Is it too late?

Seriously, WTF? Can someone please tell me what in the hell is really going on and does any of it really matter? Because I see absolutely nothing tangible happening to get us out of this mess. I'm so damn confused.

"Don't you have any fucking humanity?!" No. No, they don't.

FYI, now is a good time to mind what you post on social media, and to observe "security culture." Have a great day!! crimethinc.com/2004/11/01/w...

Nothing says "we're arresting violent criminals" like arresting clergy who are praying...

Epic

Didn't lose his leg climbing the topsails but he did suffer a heart attack and traumatic brain injury after being beaten with a flagpole by NAZIs. So I'd say he's earned the right to wear that t-shirt.

Let it pour from the heavens, that hot, dark, crimson rain! Bathe me in red! I will drink the wine of their sacrifice!!!

Witness the incredible irony of Leavitt calling others "hacks."

This guy just ruins everything. EVERYTHING.

Most 2025 global temperatures are now out (degrees C above 1850-1900 baseline) 1.41 HadCRUT5 1.44 Berkeley 1.46 JRA-3Q 1.47 Copernicus 1.53 DCENT-I NOAA and NASA GISS values will be public at 2pm UK time and but based on already public Jan-Nov data they will likely be between 1.3 and 1.4 degC.

Sure, our immediate problems with the Trump regime and rising fascism are extremely horrible; but there's a growing menace that we all know about yet seem to ignore, and is ultimately much, much more heinous in an extinction event sort of way... #Collapse #Extinction #GlobalHeating

Spiralling global temperatures (1850-2025) The last 3 years really jump out, rather like 2015-6 did when we first produced this graphic back then. Now, 2015-6 looks rather cool... More on the spiral: doi.org/10.1175/BAMS...

For them to do so is entirely hypocritical.

MAGA/fascist agenda: Oppression of "the other." Gut education because stupid people are easy to manipulate. Let them die. Voter suppression. Gut regulations, exploit and consume. Men must tell women what to do with their own bodies. Fear and loathing forever.

The propaganda mill is running at full tilt.

It won't be long before the Trump regime starts telling us that their version (read: lies) are "alternative facts." What Trump and his sycophants are doing is exactly what Trump learned from his father and Roy Cohn: never admit to being wrong, even if you have to lie about because admitting...

Where are all the 2nd Amendment supporters who consistently warned about government overreach and tyranny, and that we need our guns to fight it? oh, yeah. They voted for the tyrant and joined ICE. My bad.

Why does it seem like everything the Trump regime does is meant to be a distraction from everything the Trump regime does?
