1. Florida banned cities from lighting up bridges rainbow colors for Pride. So the people of Jacksonville did it themselves using flashlights and gels. They opened the drawbridge to block them. So they marched to a different bridge. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Had some behaviors with Willow and Luna fighting so I hired a dog behaviorist. He recommended walking the dogs twice a day. So now it’s hard to determine who is panting harder the dogs or myself 🥵 but they love it.

Is there anything more completely and amazingly 90s like singing along to the Gin Blossoms?

There was a sign when I went to the library yesterday next to minuscule pride flag that said “Courage comes from a multitude of places” and I keep thinking about that.

Anyone else cheering on the raw milk?

I would take mentally declining Biden any day over Donald Trump. Without question.

It’s so cool that this guy has the authority to launch about 2,000 nuclear warheads anytime he pleases

Musk has to go down as a pretty pathetic failure. After all, Musk told us that there were 20 million people reporting they were over 115 years old receiving Social Security benefits.. Yet, Musk and his "super-high IQ" DOGE boys could not find even ONE!

I actually hated when the Christleys were sentenced. But once Savannah started her one woman MAGA campaign for a pardon I lost all respect for everyone involved. There are people who have been in prison for way longer. I will not watch any show with any Christley in it.

Brocasts aren’t republican. They are for young guys. If you want to connect you have to speak to them. If you want to lose by 248k votes in 7 swing states, ignore them

Trump officials' showings at hearings today were disasters, but it doesn't make headlines bc the media's default assumption is that Rs are clownish rascals. But if Dems didn't know what was happening at their agencies or what habeas corpus is, it'd be front page news. This is a key media asymmetry.

And the prize for best street name trolling goes to the city of Prague. #SlavaUkraini 💙💛

Federal agents' seemingly universal adoption of neck gaiters worn just below the eyes like they're robbing the railroad is emblematic of this time in the US

With all the talk of product shortages , I think it should be said that products will first find their way to densely populated areas first and everywhere else, last This certainly will hurt all those red counties. How they react to their shelves being everything will define the midterms

I never expected to take three years of French lessons. I only wanted to be respectful if I ever visited where my mom’s family came from, Chateau Richer. I am not even that good. I can read and speak enough to get by. But I am glad I continued. Learning or trying new things should be lifelong.

Good luck Canada! Vote like you don’t want to be the 51st state. And trust me, you don’t.

I bet it’s an AOL dial-up connection

Pete Hegseth recently ordered modifications to a room next to the Pentagon press briefing for a makeup studio for TV appearances. Price tag? Several thousand dollars -- at a time when they are supposedly looking for cost-cutting measures. Self serving horseshit per usual.

He’s weakening our country. He’s weakening our economy. He’s weakening our alliances. He’s weakening the free world. He’s weakening our influence around the world. And Putin keeps smiling every single day.

Sen. Van Hollen: "I don't think it's ever wrong to fight for the constitutional rights of one person because if we give up on one person's rights, we threaten everybody's rights...Anyone who is not prepared to stand up and fight for the Constitution doesn't deserve to lead."

*Jumping back in time to explain this time to my past self* "Someday you're going to side with American interventionism, rally behind free markets, and look to Bill Kristol and Joe Walsh as thought leaders." "Impossible! I'll never become a Republican!" "And you'll do it as a Democrat." "...Oh."

I call 🐂 💩.....

The way they are exploiting this woman’s suffering to try to justify sending a random guy to an El Salvadoran gulag is truly sick

How does one write such epic books like the Harry Potter series as become just a shitty person

The good news is that the constitution provides ways for Congress and the Judiciary to reign in a power-hungry president. The bad news is those people are all scared of him.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Every college and university should do this to remind Americans that attacks on these institutions are actually attacks on all of us.

It’s Too Late was released April 16, 1971. “It’s Too Late” (cowritten with Toni Stern) was released April 16, 1971 Here is Carole King performing “It’s Too Late” Live on the 10th of February, 1971 with Danny Kortchmar for BBC. well.  #Music #RockNRoll #CaroleKing #ToniStern

On Twitter some creep named rotten miracles put me on some trans mutilation support list.

Biggest insider trading market manipulation scheme in history. They aren't even bothering to hide it.

You lost your 401k... and did Trump make money doing it? He posted "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!" just hours before pausing the tariffs. It's time for everyone to ask House Republicans why they aren't fighting for an investigation into this.

Tell me again why we’re letting a 78 year old, legit smelly, odorous, frail, loser old man who bankrupted a CASINO bankrupt the country? Congress? Any answers?

Again.

WATCH: "Donald Trump is singlehandedly, unilaterally, and for no reason, plunging America into economic crisis. I have never seen anything like this," says @chrislhayes.bsky.social.

We’ve been warning you about Pete Hegseth from the start, and now he’s proving us right. Catch the latest episode of The Breakdown here: m.youtube.com/watch?v=ji4M...

Elphie loves her siblings in her own way. Nothing like how she loved her brother Rocco but she tried to tolerate their youthful exuberance. So imagine my surprise tonight when I caught her and Luna being sweet…

Here are the Top 5 Dogs of the week!

For a certain segment this is Cronkite saying the war is not winnable. www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

When we look back on the first two months of this administration, one of many things that will be glaring is how many Dem senators voted to confirm Trump's cabinet picks out of some absurd effort to pander to notions of bipartisanship despite the obvious risks. Let's review, shall we? (thread)
