I just booked a flight for work and HOLY SHIT sooo expensive

My only life accomplishment

If you serve me food with flowers on it I will be angry but I will still eat it

The words "hi" and "lo" were too confusing so they changed it to arrows

I'm old enough to remember I'm old enough to no longer remember things

I was at Target yesterday and I was like "what are all these spring flowers?" and then it clicked.

The thing about Graham Platner bring right is he's still a Nazi

Enjoy this idiot, Minnesota

When I was a kid I used to find John Brown scary in every photo of him. History, even union history, painted him as a terrifying insurrectionist, rather than abolitionist hero.

Happy 226th Birthday to John Brown, the only white boy to ever truly understand the assignment

it has to be hard work to be this tone deaf- just say "everything is on the table" and move on. I swear to god centrism isn't an ideology so much as a pseudo-religion it's like the scientology of politics

Americans, famous for drawing their own conclusions

Editor: You get those photos of Justin Person and the sergeant at arms? Photographer: Sure did boss, real fuckin racist just like you asked. Editor: what.

New Harry Styles video and song are really great

Shadow docket ruling today that it is against the rules to criticize SCOTUS

Jesus. Did that sergeant at arms walk there directly from the Pettus Bridge? The hair, the whole look, everything. Make the photo B&W, and you wouldn't know if it was 2026 or 1965. And the reasons are the same. And the fight's the same. Confederacy and Jim Crow lost before. They'll lose again.

Nothing can prepare you for who's singing this National Anthem (via lpaulfranklin / TT)

There’s an upside to all this: Republicans are going to turn a number of solid red districts purple. In other words, “vote harder” just might work

The dog has decided to start agitating for dinner at 3:30

This headline from Justice Roberts and the red banner of what Tennessee just did to Memphis after the SCOTUS gutted the Voting Rights Act..

I'm not taking the bait from a Never Trumper with a fetish for getting yelled at and, apparently, Nazis

Millenials are now being painted as the old ones. This fate awaits us all. (as a Gen Xer I am for all intents and purposes dead)

These remarks feature most of Roberts’ usual talking points but one quote stood out to me—that justices are “not simply part of the political process.” At a minimum, constitutional interpretation is absolutely part of the *political* process & always has been. To say otherwise is deeply unserious.

I have come around on term limits. People say it'd hand more power to lobbyists, staffers, and donors, but they already have pretty much unlimited power. I think "experience" is not worth the tradeoff. I also think it should be like 10-12 yrs in the House and 18 in the Senate, so not exactly short.

this means it blames voters

You do not have to respect this court. You do not. In fact, respect = enabling. This is an ILLEGITIMATE institution. Full stop.

Trump's hands are so black he's started referring to them as Low IQ

Having a snow day today so the kids are getting a good 10, maybe 12, hours of device time

XAI is under one of these three shells, and only the savviest investors know which one it is

More like Dead Tur[signal cuts out]

"they're spending more on everything" maybe isn't the flex he thinks it is

May the 6th be with you. Sigh.

"To paraphrase Nathan Hale, I only regret that we have but one seat to take from the Democrats." This is what Democrats are facing. Any Dem who favors bipartisanship over maximalist opposition is either lost and worthy of replacement or a Republican sympathizer.

My kids have a fucking snow day tomorrow

This again is one of the problems of this whole thing. The Iranian leadership is not "insane." They're fairly rational actors that seem to behave in rational ways, but if you keep saying they're insane there's no way you can talk to them.

Let's reciprocate gutter racism with our own gutter racism!

I had to read this several times before I realized he IS NOT talking about our government

I am turning into a huge Sabrina Carpenter stan

I would love to read a deep dive profile of some of the people who pay money to subscribe to Chris Cillizza. Fascinating

ok millennial

"Lea, did you read the list of Tony nominees?"

God I hope they do this. Cannot think of anything better right now than forcing every Democrat in the country to line up against SCOTUS in public, and for this to become totally polarized partisan issue. Please do this, I'm begging you. Let's have this fight, and let's have it in the open.

Sunday in the Park with Bored

Independent voters are showing out for Abolish ICE and Dems are pretending The Baileys are the key to victory. Abortion rights brought out lots of single issue voters on both sides and dumping ICE seems to be a new segment of single issue voters! Use that to your advantage, dummies!

Just gonna keep saying it: Drastic SCOTUS reform should be a central part of the 2028 Democratic Party platform, and for Presidential candidates...I don't love litmus tests, but for me, this is becoming one.

Ask him what the other Warblers are up to

Do you want me to sit around and stew about how horrible the world is all the goddamn time? I already do it 18 hours a day, I need some downtime.

The eye makeup on Hudson is too much
