Really wish a child’s autism diagnosis came with a user’s manual

Imagine you have over $400 billion and you spend your time working to deny hungry children around the world meals to avoid starvation.

i think it's cool that the president is functionally a drug-addled billionaire nazi

imaging just letting ppl be

Now I just need to find a pair of the jeans Kendrick wore

Congratulations to Super Bowl LIX champion Kendrick Lamar

Let’s make sure we have it all: 1. Wore a Canadian Suit at the Grammys 2. Won 5 Grammys for Not Like Us + had all their peers/audience singing along 3. Wore lowercase “a” chain for “a minor” 4. Performed Euphoria + Not Like us AT THE SUPERBOWL 5. Had entire stadium saying “A MINORRRRRR”

An American flag built on the backs of Black people... Black music protesting white political terror in registers they never hear; reminiscent of ancestral spirituals embedded with instructions for runaways All this in New Orleans... What a moment

Hey! So if the halftime show at the Super Bowl bothered you or made you uncomfortable, then you’re what is wrong with this country! Hope this helps!

Saying DEI with the hard R

You know? This is fine.

When Kendrick said hey Drake and smiled at the camera I screamed laughed in a way I didn’t think possible. #superbowl

I think an American flag created entirely by black men at the Superbowl is one of the best pieces of art I've seen in my lifetime. I hope it actually killed some folks. And I hope it finally closes the fucking book on the argument that we shouldn't use the flag to fight the God damned fascists.

probably the most mischievous grin ever

Drake is the all-time biggest loser of a rap feud and that includes people who have gotten shot and died as a result of rap feuds

He really smiled at him while he did. This is a masterclass in hateration.

I love this

Currently

I might hate Tom Brady more than Tony Romo

Just going to start blocking every single Bills fan who wants to play by play the game to me

This Super Bowl is feeling very red pilled

Deleting my social media (this and TikTok don’t count) has been the best thing for me rn

But shall this crazed old man be tamely suffered to drag a whole ship’s company down to doom with him?

Murphy: "This is a constitutional crisis that we are in today. Let's call it what it is."

Is Musk is *just now* being made a “special government employee” just confirms how illegal this has all been!

Elon Musk claims to have "deleted" the office in the IRS which has enabled people to file their tax returns electronically, simply, and for free.

Conservative budget wonks (Manhattan Instiutte, Tax Foundation) confirming that this is a consittutional crisis. Not liberal hysteria. Happening right now.

Well, Drake, we'll all be back at it again same time next Sunday.

I think Americans, blessed with relatively stable government for a long time, assume there is someone, some adult, who will step in and make things right before the President does anything REALLY bad. There’s not.

What folks are getting a tough lesson in right now: Institutions are people. They are not abstract forces that exist as firewalls or safeguards. They are just people who play a role and who perhaps have abided by norms, but whose decisions minute to minute shape the role those institutions play.

NY Times, Oct. 8, 1933.

I know that all these institutions know how to push back because when Obama directed them to enforce pre-existing Title IX law, universities said no. They flat out refused until there was a working group and specific guidelines. And even then, they *still* refused.

“The party running against the 3rd Reich wasn’t that great either” is how so many people sound. Like just stop talking! Shut the fuck up!

babe, wake up, new all-purpose excuse for white men's failures just dropped

the word of the day kids is "Gleichschaltung"

BREAKING: A set of nonprofits and a small business organization sue OMB over Monday's grants/loans "pause," seeking a temporary restraining order. The groups are represented by @democracyforward.bsky.social. Complaint: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Just the <checks notes> Chair of the House Appropriations Committee going on the record to say that appropriations statutes “are not a law.” The United States Congress, ladies and gentlemen.

Why Project 2025 mattered. Made an anatomy of "legal" autocracy.

NEW — OMB temporarily pauses all agency grants and loans programs. Per copy of memo: "The use of Federal resources to advance Marxist equity, transgenderism, and green new deal social engineering policies is a waste of taxpayer dollars that does not improve the day-to-day lives of those we serve."

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

I know you don’t know me but my son’s grandfather has lung cancer & has undergone various treatments since 2015. Unfortunately his health insurance won’t cover the treatment he’s found that could prolong his life. I’m sharing this in the hopes that he won’t have to lose his house gofund.me/c0dd3ce2

We’re here again
