remember the conservative plan for schools: 1) elite secular academies for the wealthy, 2) religious instruction to brainwash the middle class and 3) a prison-like rump public school system to discipline the lower classes into mindless servitude

functionally every single person on earth was seeing a night sky with brighter and clearer stars than basically anyone on earth can see today, until about 150 years ago, due to light pollution.

this seems very russian to me

oh yeah this is a weekend at bernie’s situation

least shocking breaking news story ever unfortunately big yikes

anyway I don’t think billionaires should shut down midtown on the fourth of July weekend so they can get married in Madison Square Garden

this dude needs to be kicked out of the democratic party at the state and national level

the plot to enslave america

idk who needs to hear this but cars are a scam

I know the list is endless but I genuinely think trashing the legitimate congressionally chartered org for celebrating the 250th to instead hijack our national assets and taxpayer funds for his personality cult grifter crap should, in and of itself, be fully sufficient to merit removal from office.

Just as a benchmark: -Banknotes in Communist China did not start carrying the image of Mao until years after his death. -Passports there do not carry Mao's image. But for these new "special 250th edition" US passports...

don’t let the door hit ya on the way out bud

dude should be immediately arrested by the federal postal police tbh

TRUMP: THE PINK ANTIFA FROG PUT ALGAE IN THE POOL AND CUT A LINE INTO IT every normal person: what in the fuck are you talking about every political pundit: the president today suggested that terrorism might be responsible for the algae problems plaguing the reflecting pool

susan collins is responsible for the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs

Cory Booker and Jared Polis have some explaining to do

No one is going to miss McConnell when he’s gone. Pelosi? Sure. There will be statues built for her and rightfully so. But no one is going to look at whatever happens in the future and say “damn I wish McConnell was here to fix this”

Listened to an NPR story this morning about mass child starvation in Senegal without a single mention of Elon Musk, the guy who gleefully created the conditions for the mass starvation

The fact that Elon Musk is now one of history’s greatest mass-murderers, due to his total destruction of USAID, is still far too little-known. It’s on all of us to shout this from the rooftops. Never shut up about Elon Musk’s genocidal crimes.

Remember this scene the next time a corporate reporter tries to insist that a rural diner full of white men in their 60s is somehow a more authentically "American" place, somehow more representative of who we are as a nation.

Joe Biden was more alert than Stephen A Smith. I cannot even begin to imagine what Stephen A Smith would do in the lead up to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Biden took on the Kremlin’s misinformation war and won. Kyiv is now stronger than ever before, and none of that can be attributed to Trump.

UK Royal Marines boarded the Smyrtos tanker in the English Channel overnight, seizing a vessel carrying more than 100,000 tons of Russian crude oil. The operation marks Britain’s first physical capture of a Russian shadow fleet tanker in its waters. #Russia

the next Dem president needs to do this to the likes of Musk, Ellison, Thiel, and Sachs. honestly if Musk travels to Europe again that European country should just go ahead and do this as well.

whatever you think about the Trump regime you’re probably not angry enough by how much disrespect and disregard he has for you and the nation

If it gets its way, the US House would drastically reduce funding for transit & rail systems. The House's proposed legislation—supported by GOP & Dems—would cut overall authorized transit funding by 15% compared to the current law, and reduce potential funding for projects like new lines by 45%.

lmao

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

Remember when one (1) neurologist met with Biden and the whole media was like “yep he has Parkinson’s”?

the cars don't drive themselves and we're still nowhere near Mars, but you can't question Elon Musk's ability to deliver screwworms and racial violence

people are mad about this, and justifiably so, but also worth remembering this eating up trump's last reconciliation bill (with nothing else of substance) is due to dems maneuvering better than any minority party has a right to

I’m actually not convinced they will have enough Democrat votes to pass this through the senate, and Democrats really shouldn’t help pass anything other than continuing resolution funding agreements considering their chances of taking back Congress and actually having leverage to pass better bills

some so called environmentalists would actually erase half the earth’s human population if given the chance. their problem isn’t more housing, it’s the idea of more people they really don’t like. it’s the idea of human civilization they oppose. it’s a cult belief that human civilization is a disease

NEW: 300+ Colorado Dems including elected officials, candidates, and organizers have signed a formal complaint asking the Colorado Democratic Party to censure Gov Jared Polis and block him from speaking at party events after he gave clemency to Tina Peters (first by @ryanhasaquestion.bsky.social)

seems like jared polis thought this would make him look like an enlightened and humane centrist instead of a dumbass

“Trump says you must suffer and make sacrifices to the king, these peasants agree”

Let this chart radicalize you. Become radicalized.

Michael Bennet wouldn't do that.

also I assume this won't happen because I also assume the CO leg is as brainworm ridden and worthless as all other state leg's, but he objectively should be booted out of office for this, like today

honestly they should impeach him and then kick him out of the party

Trump and his entire regime really need to be impeached it’s unfortunate republicans in Congress are part of the maga cult hell bent on destroying America, sabotaging our alliances, increasing the prices of everything so their rich donors can enslave us all, and making us all less safe

Biden wasn’t hiding from them. He was showing his contempt for them. I think we can now see why it was justified

They think we're fucking stupid cattle

What the hell www.newyorker.com/culture/prog...

But I was told we needed to tone down the rhetoric

Currently on Caltrain heading from the South Bay toward SF, and the train is packed. That would’ve been unthinkable a couple years ago pre-electrification, especially on a Saturday night when headways were once per hour or longer. Frequency matters!

Trump is in an alliance with Putin

the revolution against the machines hasn’t even begun and these tech CEOs are already feeling pressure
