Jack Ciattarelli is sitting back while his party cuts health care, food assistance, and education for New Jerseyans – at the same time they're continuing to force a SALT double tax on working New Jersey families. Here's what I have to say about it:

Andor is one of the best television shows ever made.

"In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on." - Robert Frost

Ah the Trumps Head Talisman. Raises arcane + 5 #eldenring

Cult of personality watch. These are not the habits of a democratic movement.

You as a single individual DO NOT have to "keep up" with ALL of the information of every single thing happening across the entire world daily. You don't because it's impossible. Focus on a couple of things and act on those things. Don't feel ashamed that you are doing that.

right wingers are like "you must never forget what The Left wants to do to you." and the thing they want to do to you is give you healthcare and make sure there isn't sewage in your drinking water

I find it totally unbearable when a genre story stops dead to have some fantasy princess be like "pronouns are important!" in the most straightforward internet-speak terms possible. On a craft level it destroys momentum and believability, and socially, you aren't reaching anyone that way.

STAR WARS is so popular because it posits the absolute most terrifying version of space: the English are there

If Tr*mp were a Democrat, every single Rightwing outlet would have a singular message "Tr*mp Slump" and not a single member of the GOP would be voting for ANYTHING. They would have shut it down on Congress. Their voters wouldn't need to make a single phone call. Everyone on here know this.

Well now I can’t stop thinking how Trump and Musk have Gestahl and Kefka vibes

A student's idea of a film-maker isn't someone who has to sit home and study and think and work—as in most of the arts—but someone who goes out with friends and shoots—a social activity. It is an extroverted and egotistic image of the genius-creator. (1966)

Asshole MAGA parents already have a heckler's veto at many schools. One of the goals of the EO is to further empower them by granting them the force of the police state, which they can wield against teachers and students alike w a call to a snitch line. The good news: everyone hates these assholes.

I hope the chickens are seeing some of these profits from the expensive eggs
