When I was young, I was often overwhelmed by the things I knew. Now, I'm overwhelmed by the things I understand.

House Republicans voted to kick 16 MILLION people off their healthcare. Today, Senate Republicans proposed BIGGER CUTS to Medicaid, just to fund bigger tax cuts for giant corporations. Call your senator.

Words from fantasy's old man about times like these.

Though it's not named, Terry Pratchett's Boots Theory is described in this article. Formerly Poor People Describe The Biggest Culture Shock After Getting Rich www.comicsands.com/formerly-poo...

$45 MILLION of taxpayer money and couldnt get a bigger crowd than the crawfish festival in New Orleans. Smh.

Bonus Discworld QOTD, from The Wee Free Men “Nac Mac Feegle! The Wee Free Men! Nae king! Nae quin! Nae laird! Nae master! We willna' be fooled again!”

I can live the rest of my life being able to 100% say that more people came and watched me running around with a bunch of Whovians in a parade than attended DT's clown show.

As always Terry Pratchett has a quote that sums up the day.

Just a reminder that the money being spent on Trump’s ego parade could feed every single homeless veteran in America for more than four months.

It’s not illegal for a United States Senator to go to a public press conference and ask questions about your constituents safety. It's our job.

Gavin Newsom is on fire (in a good way):

Double.

Oh my god… I’d forgotten about this

Love this..

I did a thing… ~ 🏳️‍🌈

There’s a Pratchett for everything

When all you have is money, everyone looks like merchandise

You wanna rename a navy ship to scrub away this man? Oh, fuck you His name is Harvey Milk I hope your effort to scrub him from history results in millions more learning who he was

Ed Martin is expanding his operation, and it’s as dangerous as it sounds. The US Department of Justice’s pardon attorney, Ed Martin Jr, is now laying the groundwork to pardon even more of Trump’s allies, this time focusing on the Republican fake electors who tried to help overturn the 2020 election.

Roses are redde Noble are the manatees Yf we wante a bettir future Teach artes & humanityes

When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine views, he said he was "not gonna take away vaccines from anybody." But now he's taking them away from millions of mommas and babies. Vaccine recommendations should be based on science, not RFK Jr.'s political agenda.

When I look at ads now, I realize most of the people are not well-adjusted, and the sellers don't want buyers to be happier after they've bought their products or services.
