If the symbolism was any heavier, it would pull the rest of reality into it like a neutron star

Another data point for my argument that nothing in this world makes Gregg Abbott happier than the needless suffering of children. School shootings, razor wire at the border, preventable diseases, health care reductions … if it will lead to more dead kids, the governor is all for it.

Budapest Pride is going ahead thanks to Mayor Gergely Karácsony, despite Orban’s attempt to ban it.

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

Shabbat Shalom to everyone who recognizes that the safety, freedom & thriving of Jews and Muslims are bound up together — in Israel & Palestine, across the five boroughs, and in many other beloved places.

RIP to a great man and a great journalist. He was the best boss I ever had by a mile. I’d bet that he was the best boss any of us had ever had, www.cnn.com/2025/06/26/m...

Deporting children of military veterans because they were born on an overseas military base. This man has no citizenship now.

CEO compensation graphed next to employee compensation. 🙃

Jake Sherman is reporting that the Medicaid gender affirming care ban has been removed from the reconciliation bill! Huge news!

Some people think this is an exaggeration but I will say that if I were HHS Secretary and my goal were to kill as many children as possible, it would be difficult to distinguish the actions I would take from those that Kennedy has taken.

RFK Jr. has just appointed another anti-vax liar to the CDC. Lyn Redwood, former head of the same misinformation factory that paid RFK Jr. to lie about vaccines, will now work at the CDC. Every day it gets worse. The U.S. government is subjecting Americans to a disinformation campaign.

the absolute Lord Charles curveball of that last sentence…

If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

This is a travesty & a nightmare. The US was a founder of @gavi.org. It lowers global vaccine costs, has vaccinated 1B children, & averted 19M deaths. This pull out will cost 100s of thousands of children's lives a year - and RFK Jr will be personally responsible. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

Robert F Kennedy Jr is not a vaccine skeptic. Reporters and editors who’ve decided it’s somehow more fair to call him one instead of the anti-vaccine activist and lawyer he is should stop mischaracterizing him so… in the pursuit of accuracy.

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

Billionaires’ wealth surged $6.5tn over past decade, Oxfam reports

“I feel like people mistook my 250k for enthusiasm” is something I’ve often found myself saying out loud

Keytar Ghost is bummed because he has no arms to play sweet synth riffs with. Not even his "Back to the Future II" promotional sunglasses from Pizza Hut can cheer him up.

Sorry everyone- I misunderstood. Vote is tomorrow, comments are now. Predictably the first commenter is from Children's Health Defense and spews the typical anti-vaccine propaganda.

That isn’t rain out my window…it’s the tears of Jonathan Chait. The tears of Atlantic writers. The tears of all the bigoted, racist, anti-Palestinian haters who are now weeping with fear of Sharia Law. Because Zohran Kwame Mamdani is coming to Gracie Mansion, y’all.

"GOOD FUCKING RIDDANCE"

An Indian-Muslim socialist who is openly pro Palestine is going to be mayor of a city that is bigger than 38 states

crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their consultants

From a key Mamdani adviser ❤️

This is great from @attackerman.bsky.social on how Zohran’s opponents tried to use the politics of 9/11 against him - and it didn’t work. www.forever-wars.com/this-is-the-...

the unknown guy who ran with and for trans people won the nyc dem mayoral primary over the big name candidate who hired a consultant from an anti-trans campaign

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done. My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it. I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

This image is now absolutely everywhere over European media lmao

hope google AI starts using this as the first search result lol
