I like telling authoritarians where to shove it in multiple languages

tired: “live laugh love” inspired:

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

Meiselas: People are concerned about potential market manipulation and whether these statements create artificial spikes and then decreases in the market. Is that something you’re looking into? AG James: We’ve been reviewing a lot of this conduct to determine whether or not it’s actionable.

The so-called “moderate” GOP position on Medicaid cuts is no cuts above $500 billion. Hello? That would mean 18 million children and 2 million adults with disabilities lose health care coverage, according to the latest estimates. What’s “moderate” about that?

Last night was a hectic one. In case you missed it: DOGE put a college student in charge of using AI to rewrite housing regulations. Because who needs experts when you’ve got ChatGPT and an economics and data science major? And yes—this may be rolling out across government. Cool cool cool.

This is a Paul Walter Hauser comedy on like paramount+ or something, right?

This is Goose. He formed a special bond with his next-door neighbor whose own dog passed away. Loves when he gets to run over for another play date together. 14/10 for both

The grift comes full circle. Musk took a $465M government loan to build Tesla—now he’s using DOGE to kill off the very office that helped him succeed—because it might help the next innovator, not him. This isn’t “efficiency.” It’s sabotage!

I have in general become way less tolerant of ‘crunchy’ bullshit since ascension of people like RFK jr. to actual power. Sorry but the obnoxious Reddit science and logic guys were right, you should be scorned for believing objectively wrong things about consequential issues.

A LOT of people do not want to hear it but in the United States at least, food has never been safer to eat, not to mention tastier

Not to be a Wednesday morning quarterback, but if the president is saying something not just false but stupid, it's probably a good idea to keep asking questions. (Do you know what Photoshop is? Who told you this guy had MS-13 tattooed on his knuckles? Who gave you the blown-up picture?)

My husband @robertcooper-us.bsky.social and I are happily celebrating our 45th anniversary today!! ❤️ ❤️ We’re staying at a lovely 19th century Bed & Breakfast in St. Augustine, FL. 🌴 Just the two of us — our five kids are holding down the fort back in NY! 🥰

COLLINS: He's wildly exaggerating how much eggs are down. They're not down 87%. If they were, people would be paying 50 cents for a dozen eggs. MARKWAYNE MULLIN: Well, the fact is they're down

Every Monday I wake up, fully cognizant of the fact that the President took a perfectly healthy economy back behind the shed and shot it, and then I go about my job for the week like that didn’t happen because I have no control over it. It makes me feel ridiculous.

It’s Election Day, Canada. Go vote Canada Strong.

In case you missed it... WIRED talked to *actual* federal auditors about how government auditing works—and how DOGE is doing the opposite.

Burgum literally signed the national parks service over to DOGE

Turned out OK

We have now arrived at the "arresting judges" level of fascism.

Why isn’t Trump in prison then?

JUST IN: A Milwaukee judge has been arrested this morning allegedly because she “tried to help an undocumented immigrant avoid arrest after he appeared in her courtroom last week.” There’s not a lot of info on this yet so stay tuned for more as it is released. www.jsonline.com/story/news/b...

BREAKING: The constitutional crisis has arrived. We knew it was coming, just not when.

It's about time

It would be very healthy for human species, If there is less Discouragement.

These Space Trips Should Be Reserved For Certain People

The fuck? This is untenable. Dude is a walking security threat.

He’s so good at this.

🚨 BOLDLY GOING…. Now this isn’t a crossover anyone was expecting! Things get trippy in a bonkers new #StrangeNewWorlds x #SpongeBobSquarepants promo for P+! 🤯 #StarTrek

On being called DEI and why it isn’t the burn they think it is

A three-judge panel in a North Carolina court blocked a Republican scheme to gain power over the state’s election board — the agency charged with running elections and enforcing campaign finance laws. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The $5000 “baby bonus” is functionally very similar to the Earned Income Tax Credit except it doesn’t have the work requirement the GOP has insisted on for decades.

If Tetairoa McMillian is there at 12, the Cowboys should call the pick in immediately. Talked about his best traits on NFL Live and why they work well in Dallas 👇

💥 BREAKING: Pfizer shareholders voted 98-2 percent today to reject anti-DEI proposal to evaluate risk of religious discrimination and promote "faith-based ERGs." Pfizer Board recommended shareholders vote to reject the proposal, citing Pfizer's Merit-Based Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion policies.

Citadel CEO Ken Griffin, a billionaire Trump supporter and a megadonor to Republican candidates, had some unusually harsh words for the president about his trade war: It’s hurting America’s standing in the world and eroding the nation’s brand.

It’s hard for me to believe this is a “radical, leftist, socialist, commie” way to think.

I would like for stupid people to stop making important decisions that affect my life

CHICAGO (AP) - March home sales slowed in a lethargic opening to the spring buying season. $XHB $LEN $DHI $PHM $MAS $SHW

THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT IS THE LAW OF THE LAND AND A SUPERSTATUTE AND THE PRESIDENT CANNOT UNDO IT. sincerely, a constitutional law professor who also teaches employment discrimination
