If a man said “quiet piggy” to me it would be the last thing he said with a working set of nads, I can tell you that much.

I started writing again.

I hope people understand that the anomaly here aren’t the conditions—the conditions are very typical—the anomaly is that they put a number of documented workers from a high-income country in those conditions. This is how people are treated in custody routinely

Are we hope-scrolling over here too?

I think there is no better summation of the Democratic Party than saying you want to minimize cruelty instead of completely eliminate it

Absolutely sick of being represented by @amyklobuchar.com at this point. Might as well be a republican.

one of the single best deals in streaming. i've been paying for PBS Passport for years. it rules

I think this is the most horrifying post I have ever read.

One of my 3yo twins calls older kids whose ages he doesn’t know “big-year-olds” and I don’t ever want it to stop.

I want you to imagine that you opened a bag of flour to feed your children. There's no other food. Then you open the flour and find prescription medicine ground up in it. Prescription painkillers. In the only food for your CHILDREN.

I need @fivefourpod.bsky.social to discuss the glory of this burn

Bill Clinton’s just chilling in his living room, watching ICE kidnappings on tv, when the sex pest election trouble alarm goes off in his kitchen. “Not cuomo,” he says to himself. “Not another member of the brotherhood”

Not to brag, but I read a whole book.

It really is the easiest thing in the world to say an entire population shouldn’t be driven from their homes, blocked from escape, then bombed and starved into oblivion. This should never happen: no exceptions, no context required. The fact that people are still on the fence is what’s controversial.

Today, I’m thinking about all the mothers who have been separated from their children. By militaries, by borders, by death. Every child should have the option to hold their mom on Mother’s Day.

This is the right approach — speak to them as you would an especially stupid child, spell out their crimes and your contempt clearly.

Goodbye, Dutton, you bigoted Voldemort looking ass bitch.

*laughs in American/Australian*

They literally did the Onion article. Agents posted up outside her hospital room.

Aaaaaand they’re home sick 🥴

you don't need chatGPT i am perfectly capable of drinking a bottle of water and lying to you

i will say again that given the trajectory of the white house so far, strident opposition a la 2017 would have absolutely been the most prudent and effective decision and the absence of that opposition in the first two months made things demonstrably worse.

Daycare notifications portend doom.

[Democrat senators walking to the gallows set up for them by the administration, voices muffled by the bags over their heads]: this behavior is extremely concerning

No one can say we didn’t know what was happening.

RIP to the Pope you would have loved having your death blamed on a bumbling fascist dolt

Am I doing something wrong, or are they just three: a parenting dilemma.

Australia, I speak so highly of you, and this is how you repay me.

one thing that Democratic politicians should take note of is that the overlap between “great political optics” and “actual morally good stuff” is really big right now

There is a direct line from the decision not to prosecute George W. Bush for detaining/torturing people at Guantanamo Bay to Trump sending people to CECOT. History will repeat itself as long as we refuse to hold people accountable and just “move on” in the name of civility.

I started Nobody Wants This last night. 22-minute episodes? Two leads with actual chemistry? A romantic comedy that’s both romantic AND funny? What a concept.

There are some very bad stories going around about the Mahmoud Kahlil case. The hearing today was before an immigration judge — which is located within the Justice Department. They are NOT a "federal judge" in the sense that anyone reading at least one nationwide story saying so thinks of it.

John Oliver's segment about trans athletes is a must watch for anyone who genuinely has "concerns" (and isn't just using that as cover for bigotry) www.readtpa.com/p/send-this-...

The logic of filling in public swimming pools with dirt or cement instead of racially integrating them, applied to the whole country

Uzo Aduba is brilliant. Randall Park’s comedic timing is unmatched. Giancarlo Esposito is impossible to look away from every time he’s on screen. Yes I’m watching The Residence.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Since my twins started going to daycare I must have spent $150 on socks alone.

Inside you are two wolves…

Now would be a perfect opportunity for Christians all over America to take a stand against Christian Nationalism and tell it to take its hands off our sacred faith and our country.

good morning to the other Australian parents experiencing daylight saving time

this is why shipping migrants to third party countries is inherently a due process violation. it very literally removes them from the realm of legal process entirely.

So it’s possible that someone was impersonating Hani on GoFundMe? Because it’s nearly impossible to do this and get money out the impersonation account got shut down and refunds were issued- if you donated to that campaign and got a refund- here is his real campaign which is fine and actually him.

To explain America in this moment requires this information.... White people accidentally adopt wolves.... AND KEEP THEM

One of many moments in Omar El Akkad’s new book, “One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This,” that will stop you in your tracks.

They are arresting people on the streets, terminating their visas, and disappearing them for writing things they disagree with. This is where we are. Two months in. Right now. If you think they won’t begin coming after citizens soon, you are mistaken.
