We fight with love. Love and also a neurotoxin isolated from a rare Argentinian liana.

It looks like someone has hacked a crosswalk button in Palo Alto to deliver at least two different messages in the voice of Elon Musk. (They are not complimentary)

KTLA's twitter account posted the N-word yesterday and then said that they were suffering from technical difficulties. I am guessing that these two accounts have the same social media manager. Anyway I thought Black Angelenos and Angelenos who value Black people would like to know.

Yo! Shoutout to AOC & Bernie for leading by example — showing up, speaking truth & organizing w/the people, not just talking at them from D.C. We need that same energy from all Dems. Whether it’s 35,000 or 35 people — show up. Hit the streets, hit the town halls, show you’re ready to fight for us.

1 of every 20 dating profiles answers “dating goals?” by typing in “murder hornets” and oh my god we are all so poignantly broken.

I got to dance tonight for a bit and I feel healed

STAND and DEMAND the immediate return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. BRING HIM HOME! Abrego Garcia is a SMART Local 100 first-year apprentice who was working full-time to support his young family — before he was brutally abducted and illegally deported to El Salvador. SMART General President…

GIGANTIC YELLOW WARNING: we don't serve transsexuals. HAPPY REGULAR WEBSITE: care. no matter what. can't make this shit up man

I reported on economics full-time in 2020. It taught me there are no incentives to have a baby in the US. Women in the US have to pay for pre-natal, medical and child care, earn less, do most of the parenting and chores, get promoted less, and are now at 27% higher risk of maternal mortality.

to agree with the Bruenig piece, you have to accept the premise that continued human presence on earth requires us to be concerned with white birthrates, because otherwise there's no problem to be solved

Idk chat. When retail politics features “get in the streets”, retail politics is broken.

It would appear CNN was also at the eugenics conference? Why are all these mainstream news orgs at a 200-person event where all the speakers are eugenicists and racists? www.cnn.com/2025/04/11/u...

Dancing in the Castro felt so right while nothing feels right … with all the fascism

the first real paper is gonna have to do 1 week/mo of front page stories about the high-end high-influence strivers but title the endless series “Power Corrupts” There’s a whole level of reality-denial that the press/the people promote & recreate.

You have whatever candy crush is these days I have “inbox zero” challenge & 27 different passively-subscribed-to brands emailing me each day. We are not the same.

Remember: Cass is not peer-reviewed - and is therefore not “gold”, silver, bronze or even recycled plastic standard. IMO it’s just pseudoscience. There are now at least five damming, peer-reviewed critiques of Cass; all automatically of a higher standard, with at least two more in peer-review.

I love how if one corner of a sheet isn’t fitted, they all aren’t thanks geometry

me & the fam went out and watched “Princess Mononoke” poignant. From Elon Musk to Peter Baker a demon curses this land I think the karma’s like…the more we deny our Imperium the more our Demon is an inside job

A Tom Brady, Quincy Jones, or Jesus Christ is still just a You trying to be the best Itself it Can.

-vouchers worth 5-7 subs -tax ad-based content into the low-end product -public options at all levels leveraging an expanded community college system

my new podcast is about the process through which people become concentrated at opposite ends of the ideological spectrum, and also our ongoing project to surgically transform an ordinary brown bear into an Ursus maritimus. Check out "Polarization" available now.

wait for Easter and hide them in eggs for the White House press corps

minor correction: tom hanks in an ~all-electric~ scion xb on te37s these electric xb conversions, called "ebox," were made by the gm ev1 veterans at ac propulsion, who chose to make these instead of partnering with elon musk to commercialize the tzero sportscar that became the first tesla roadster

The ruling class has voted no to prosperity and equality because of the equality part

All but three House Republicans just voted for Trump's tariffs. The procedural measure, which preemptively surrenders congressional power to stop Trump's tariffs, passed with all Democrats voting no. This was the vote count:

I am telling you, J6 is going to be declared a national holiday

so the Constitution’s dead and what stands will be custom. & at some point very soon or not the whole edifice will come down and it’ll do a totalitarianism it’s that or build towards mass action & regime change

its so cool that we have an entire crop of innumerate journalists who are going to go out and file "trump caves on tariffs" stories despite the net of today's announcement being a bigger tariff than The Big Board Of Nutso Bullshit

The message from the Left should be: tariffs bad, industrial policy good. Sure, there are niche cases where tariffs might be useful as part of industrial policy, but it really weakens the message to add qualifiers. Fight unreservedly against the thing destroying the economy.

If you abduct someone and send them involuntarily and without recourse to a country where they've never lived to be imprisoned, that isn't deportation, it's human trafficking

Riding my cruiser bike around suburbia is fun but I also want to shout at all the cars I’m sharing a stoplight with I AM DOING THIS BY CHOICE I DONT HAVE A DUI

Constitutionally, impeachment is easier than overriding a veto. Just pointing that out.

waiter serves me a steak and comes right back with a *steak knife* me: hmmmmm. puzzling move.

It is really wild that Google won't stop claiming that AI will reduce GLOBAL emissions by 5-10% I traced the origin of that claim and.....it is so much worse than I expected. www.linkedin.com/pulse/ai-rea...

it's so crazy how public and textbook his (re)traumatizing cycle is. therapy/vulnerability's right out, so i think its just unconscioulsy manifesting reenactment the whole way home.

I love paying TurboTax a few hundred bucks every year to figure out how much money I owe the government, which the government already knows, but won't tell me because TurboTax pays legislators to keep the government from telling me. 😻
