Best railcar graffiti I've ever seen

This. It gets really old to see folks report with breathless shock Trump News that comes down to "Trump did something perfectly predictable which has not deviated from how he thinks and what he's been doing - at all"

I'm not saying that caused a butterfly effect leading to our current political situation, but I would read the hell out of an alternative history novel that begins with that innocent premise.

Every now and then, I think about the fact that we came very close to Matthew McConaughey being cast as Jack Dawson in "Titanic" -- so close, in fact, that several people involved in the production thought he had the role, including studio execs. 1/2

This is completely unbearable. But also like… why are his insane ramblings never summarized like this in the media? We gotta wait for a substack guy to put it together like this?

Wow — @tnhousegop caucus chair @RepFaison rebukes Kash’s (and Noem’s) comments about showing up at a protest with a legal firearm 👇🏽 Not something we see every day around here

Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…

Me too. I can't get it out of my head. It was so...inhuman?

Harm to SNAP recipients, federal workers, and others is real. In a normal democracy it’d make sense to prioritize reducing that harm in the short term. In a rapidly backsliding democracy, harm is happening no matter what. Preventing authoritarian consolidation is the most harm-reducing move.

The Democratic party needs to be chopped up and used for parts. It's serving no one's interest but its Mega Donors and, increasingly, MAGA's.

Unsaid....is that an imperfect democracy is also potentially "an imperfect fascist state"

Janet Mills — who is 77 — should stay the absolute fuck away from the Senate race and this situation is honestly FRUSTRATING. AS. FUCK. GRAHAM PLATNER FOR SENATE!

There's a light, there's a right - tonight isn't as dark as it seems.

Silent Hill has a terrible healthcare system who trained these nurses
