The fact such a small faction has managed to wrangle power is baffling but it also means there are way, way more of us than there are of them - and we can and must put a stop to it, now.

It's pretty cool that Eater put together resources for restaurants about how to handle ICE raids

another great example along with Wired and Teen Vogue of how real journalism these days can be a lot braver at outlets where no one is trying to get in good with the White House press secretary they’re out here with us, reporting on what’s happening to us all, instead of trying to get inside access

People experiencing pregnancy loss in states with abortion bans told us they wished they had known what to expect and how to advocate for themselves. We created this guide for anyone who finds themselves in the same position.

My parents have reached the age where they can’t hear real good, and sometimes listening to them holler back and forth at each other is straight out of a sitcom 😂

No it doesn’t, privatization for profit is their “gov’t” goal. Their brains have been so rotted by capitalism they can’t conceptualize there are things that need to happen to keep a country running that simply don’t need to (and frankly shouldn’t) turn a profit. They call that socialism.

I was literally thinking this same thing after seeing that video of Bannon at CPAC. Just last night said to myself, “damn, they’re deadass just gonna start doing the Nazi salute, aren’t they?” and now seeing this I’m even more confident that’s a likely scenario.

It’s a lot of things tbh. Obviously the lying, but Elon’s response is so incredibly juvenile - something you’d expect from a 12 year old boy - the difference between the way the two men here handle themselves is STARK.

I watched as part of my Women in Horror themed #31DaysofHorror list in ‘22. You can immediately tell Fresh was written & directed by women. Mimi Cave crushes her directorial debut in a horror movie about the importance of female friendship. CW: cannabalism (surprisingly little gore tho!)

Of course they did. Here’s the thing, kind of an important thing actually. It’s the military’s job to protect our country (and us), while a cops job is to protect power and property - the reason it’s critical the one never turns on it’s people is because the other absolutely will.

NEW: Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%. https://propub.li/43487Tj

You get the very obvious impression he’s just talking out of his ass (embarrassing) but the problem is he’s talking out of his ass about invading other countries (dangerous, insane).

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

One (me) has to wonder (bc I’m nosey) what it is she needs his permission (or money? I’d assume she has her own?) to do and why, if it’s something life-altering, she doesn’t feel able to do what needs to be done sans-Elon (is she worried about what he’ll do if she does?).

If I had a band or a label, I would do a punk cover of "No More Kings" from Schoolhouse Rock. And then I would gather a bunch of people to write a whole album of next-generation Schoolhouse Rock songs, with songs about Social Security and Medicaid and NOAA. I am not kidding in the least.

I really enjoy seeing traditionally, perhaps even stereotypically masculine men also be legit good dudes Earlier today JD Vance claimed our culture tries to suppress masculinity just bc men wanna tell jokes over beers; the implicit part here is that the jokes are, like Vance, bigoted and unfunny

Wild. At the Small Business Administration, some employees were fired, then re-hired, then re-fired. @govexec.bsky.social found at least one employee who was fired, re-hired, re-fired, and then re-hired a second time.

JD Vance owns AcreTrader, an app that lets wealthy—often foreign—investors buy up U.S. farmland. Guess who’s deliberately tanking farm economies so JD and his billionaire tech buddies can scoop it up for pennies. civileats.com/2024/09/18/j...
