Some people say we don’t build beautiful things anymore and, like, lol. Motherfuckers, we built this:

Winning campaign slogan here if anyone wants it.

I was at a reunion for former employees of a previous company last November. Lots of friends and acquaintances there; no one I’m really close to. Like, 50 people standing around in a brewery, drinking and chatting in little groups. At one point, in a group of millennial women, Harry Potter came up.

hey if "the economy" is completely decoupled from the welfare of the people, WHAT IS THE FUCKING POINT OF THE ECONOMY

If you live in Illinois’s 9th District, please vote for Kat Abughazaleh. You still have time, this hour and the next, to make a difference in what should be quite close, so go vote, and maybe take someone else with you.

don’t let AIPAC win!!! vote for kat abughazaleh in IL-9 today!!!

Got my 2 adult kids up early to make sure they voted in #IL-09 today

this is a radical position but I believe that if you are a person of integrity you should not be using far right wing propaganda websites owned by sociopaths

Likewise! If you're in Illinois, vote for @julianastratton.bsky.social in the Dem primary for senator

We don’t need talkers right now. We need fighters. And no matter how many times they knock me down, I’ll get back up and fight with you. Every. Single. Time.

I’ve seen enough. It’s time to shut the humanity experiment down. Good luck to the cockroaches who inherit our irradiated remains.

EARLY VOTING OPENED UP TODAY ACROSS IL-09! Do you have a plan to vote yet? You can vote at any early voting location in the county you’re registered in. Here are the closest ones across IL-09:

Now that CNN and WBD are set to become state media in a sale to Paramount/Oracle/TikTok, it is especially important to support independent media. Off the top of my head: www.thehandbasket.co 404media.co www.garbageday.email Add your favorites in the replies. Fuck state-backed media monopolies.

Wow.

They want to scare people out of posting ICE-critical content, because they know these posts are turning even their supporters against them. But the better option is to take a page out of their playbook and flood the zone.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

2026 has taken Catherine O’Hara and now I have to fight it in the street.

If you see this, don't participate. It's a rigged study by Lisa Littman and unethical researcher J. Michael Bailey meant to undermine access to care. Spread the word.

No, *you’re* crying over a mighty wind clip

Greg Ketter of Dreamhaven Books. Respect and shared fury.

Well I felt all that -27 degrees getting these images this morning. Stay warm Chicago!

@democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.org - Freakin Bill Kristol keeps saying ABOLISH ICE -- why are you afraid to say it? #AbolishICE

hey I like that we're all posting thru it but I also wanted to say, in case anybody else is feeling it, that I'm pretty scared and genuinely think that we've passed a real rubicon in the past week or so and that being at the mercy of a handful of dumbfuck lunatics really does a number on your soul.

Good morning. What a deeply embarrassing day to be a US citizen, on so many levels.

If it weren’t real life, “You didn’t give me a peace prize so now I’m declaring war on you” would be hilarious

this Greenland shit is fucking insane. it’s fucking insane. the fact that anyone is humoring him is fucking insane. the biggest problem in the world today is that nobody is taking the president seriously for the fucking psychopath he is. this isn’t all some fucking joke

just increasingly obvious that everything online Dems got excited about in casting Newsom as a “fighter” was simply the skilled efforts of a comms team who knows exactly what online Dems will fall for, while the man himself has a spine made of absolute tapioca pudding

Sometimes all you can do is make the world 0.0000000000001% less awful by being a good person and it feels very meaningless but it’s also the only thing that really matters

remember, folks,

Read this thread. This is what @katmabu.bsky.social was protesting, and why she repeatedly says getting beaten up by ICE outside is nothing compared to the torture and crimes being committed inside Broadview. These thugs must be held to account.

It's good that public sentiment flipped as soon as people saw the consequences of the things they thought they wanted, but we have a serious problem if we're going to keep cycling through this process forever.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP. Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP. The people who need help are not the problem. It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Yep.

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states. Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”

No, supporting trans rights doesn’t cost elections! “43 percent of voters were more likely to vote for a candidate who stands up for transgender people. Just 21 percent of voters would be less likely to support a candidate who supports trans rights.”

I took Tylenol as needed throughout my pregnancy. I am a doctor. I order Tylenol for pregnant women regularly. Tylenol is safe in pregnancy. RFK Jr is ignoring a huge recent well-done study because he doesn't like the answer it gives. There is no causality between Tylenol and autism.

It is the job of the Democratic party to sell and defend the policies that most Democratic voters want, not to present a candidate slate that is palatable to moderate Republicans who might switch if they hate their own candidate enough.

We're witnessing the most aggressive, fanatical crackdown on free speech in my lifetime. The speed and breadth of government censorship and private sector and nonprofit capitulation has been astonishing. As has the lack of urgency/silence from people who've long claimed to care about this stuff.

Trump did not leave Chicago. He just didn't send the National Guard. Instead, he sent his deportation thugs. And in some ways, that's quite a bit worse.

You cannot understand politics in the United States in 2025 without understanding Gamergate. It is the Rosetta Stone for our current nightmare.

You can write this only if, by virtue of your income, identity, or both, you are utterly removed from the consequences of politics. To pretend that the racist, misogynistic, anti-gay vileness that Kirk spent his life spreading is secondary to the fact that he spread it "the right way" is appalling.

Nobody who voted to confirm RFK is fit to hold public office
