We border Canada. Canada. Also, we do not need DHS as it stands today….what we do need is for our political representatives to be anti-fascists.

This album was amazing! Listened to it frequently as a kid!

This is the coolest album cover I’ve ever seen

While Donald Trump hurts Michigan’s economy, Mike Duggan is courting Republican donors at a fundraiser today hosted by Jeff Sakwa, the former co-chair of the Michigan Republican Party. Duggan can’t be trusted.

PLEASE LEARN ABOUT UNRELIABLE NARRATORS I BEG YOU

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

Christian persecution in America is best defined by this image: No actual struggle, wearing clothes that cost more than my entire wardrobe, polished cross instead of rugged, and surrounded by crowds of fellow hypocrites cheering on bigotry who believe they're the victims.

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.

Personally I don't think we should let the president make the entire country a safe space for himself

1. Call your reps about Trump's violation of the War Powers Act 2. Demand Congress haul Hegseth etc. in for hearings/briefings on justification 3. Demand to know why the Gang of Eight was not kept in the loop. Do it NOW.

private equity is a plague :)

decided to do a fun little thought experiment on an otherwise normal day

Far right extremists, inspired by Trump per Whitmer herself, tried to kidnap her. Trump himself later suggested it was a fake plot and mocked it. He called her ‘that woman in Michigan’ and led a crowd that chanted ‘lock her up.’ Today Whitmer hugged him on the tarmac. This is why Dems lose. 🤷🏽‍♂️👇🏽

I feel like, at some point after the election, Whitmer was looking for a new adviser and said “get me the guy who put Dukakis in that tank.”

Well, as a Michigander this is disappointing.

With the recent news story about the White House considering ways to encourage women to have more babies, I thank Chloe Anygal for reminding me that I already covered this. None of this is about us. “The haranguing of women will continue until white women are brought to heel.”

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

Can’t say more strongly: they are claiming the power to disappear people with no recourse, to entirely remove anyone they want to, forever, with no ability to stop them. “Unamerican” doesn’t do it justice. Diametrically opposed to anything even remotely resembling a society we should support.

“Trump is illegally disappearing people. He is proposing abducting Americans. He must be removed from power. He no longer has authority.” And honestly that’s the weak version of what Democrats should be saying.

AOC: We must acknowledge the terrifying moment we are in right now. What we are hearing and seeing with our own eyes is, in fact, happening. We are watching our neighbors, students, and friends being fired, targeted, and disappeared. It is real.

pretty tired of all the nazis

It is 2002. I am 18 years old. We are in a once-in-a-generation economic crisis. It is 2008. I am 24 years old. We are in a once-in-a-generation economic crisis. It is 2020. I am 36 years old. We are in a once-in-a-generation economic crisis. It is 2025. I am 41 years old. We are in a—

Evil enough on its own, but one thing to note about child abuse is how every single Republican voted to more than double the child poverty rate, from 5.2% in 2021 to 12.4% in 2022, by ending the expanded child tax credit.

there have been three major economic collapses in my adult lifetime and guess which party has been in charge each time? it's almost like their policies don't work.

MAGA is a death cult.

Crusius killed 23 people because he thought Trump wanted him to? No death penalty. Mangione kills a health care exec? Death penalty. I’m staunchly anti death penalty, but it’s interesting whose lives are considered valuable.

The reason that the US is locking up tourists for weeks in hellish detention centers rather than letting them book tickets back home is because the detention centers are owned by corporations. They are charging the taxpayers fortunes to cage these people, and making bonanzas off their suffering.

The United States is just a country. It is not special. It is not the first country out of many. We are just one country, and I see my obligation as a citizen of it as doing what I can to make our empire's fall--and our empire IS falling--as painless for those around us and in us as I can.

We do not have a free country in this moment. When they can nab someone off the street because they don't like what they say, they can nab anyone.

My sincere prayer is that each and every day of Chuck Schumer’s life is the worst day of his life.

Chuck Schumer is the guy in every zombie show who lies about getting bit.

Now we have no choice but to accept what we have long known: We cannot vote our way to a democracy. The only way forward is for us to take direct action.

🧵 If I'm going to get hate mail over it, I'll do this thread over w/o typos: Bluntly, I'm hearing from Hill offices that messages sent via resistbot tend to be heavily discounted. Calling is a more impactful way of communicating with Members and Senators. So if you can call, call. 🧵

Are the next 4 years really going to be logging on everyday to sentences like "a 19 year old doge intern called Big Balls has your social security number" because I'm already at capacity for this sort of thing

Much love and high praise to all the devs affected at BioWare who have given us these amazing stories all these past years. They deserve better.

Dear US senators: You can ABSOLUTELY say you're voting against these nominees before their hearings. You'll save yourself some grief and us a lot of time. There are no norms here to uphold; don't pretend they're in any way qualified or valid candidates. Just say you're not voting for them. Thanks.

Dragon Age has brought me so much joy and comfort in my darkest times- i could (and might honestly) write so much about it. That I cant reciprocate that feeling to the people that made it- i get so frustrated. Any and all DA devs, you matter. Your work matters- they dont know all you did.

Absolutely this! So much gratitude to everyone who has worked on this series!
