Why we need a bunch of new Democratic leaders to take over—like right now The system that got us here can not get us out.

Just sat thru the main stage MAHA panel at CPAC 2025 and am increasingly convinced these people are gonna start a zombie apocalypse

People on Twitter complaining about lower engagement on Bluesky is a specific kind of influencer culture brain rot because I’m like my sibling in Christ the numbers aren’t real

"Biological men" implies the existence of chemical, ergonomic, physical, psychological and safety men.

He nails it.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

swear to god if this were a movie script the studio would send notes back saying "tone it down, no one's gonna buy this"

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

The poster child for white male mediocrity, Pete Hegseth, is firing qualified Black men and women from the military.

Better not call it a “vaccine” or it might not get approved. Maybe market it as a recreational drug.

And who they didn't like

ProPublica has released another study related to the effects of abortion bans in the U.S., this time showing a spike in sepsis cases in Texas following the implementation of that state's "heartbeat" abortion ban in 2021.

Mitch McConnell may have unleashed forces that in the end were too toxic even for him, but he'll still go down as one of the worst, most malignant forces in the history of American politics.

Knowing how to destroy something that's (allegedly) broken and knowing how to build something that actually works are two entirely different skillsets/mindsets and I hate how conflated they've become in our politics.

This is Kegan. She has a broken leg and dislocated hip from being hit by a car. Even though she's in pain and can hardly move, her tail never stops wagging. You can help us cover her much needed surgery and support her recovery below ❤️‍🩹 15outof10.org/kegan

“In an annual filing, the company said its business could be adversely affected if it was ‘unable to attract or retain specialized talent or top talent with diverse perspectives, experiences and backgrounds.’” Cola wars just leveled up.

If you’re going to force me to look at Nazi salutes by using them as the images for the articles you publish, have the fucking decency to call it what it is. Provocative gesture? Literally what the fuck is wrong with you.

I would love to see the branding of this admin as free speech advocates die. They’re thin-skinned censorious egomaniacal losers who are blowing up the world bc they can’t handle criticism. We don’t have to accept their framing of anything.

Classic con structure: the big returns are coming!

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Tired of the “never coming back from this in our lifetimes” nonsense. South Korea, Brazil, Eastern Europe, Mexico were all effectively dictatorships within a life time (and most within my life time) and have all have democracy now.

My parents’ generation fought a bloody world war against fascism. This generation is voting fascists into office. I’m thoroughly horrified. And ashamed. Why aren’t the streets filled in opposition? I don’t understand

And now we have the answer on why Louis DeJoy abruptly resigned as Postmaster General. Trump intends to take over the Post Office. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
