I hate when they take away things you were just starting to really enjoy, like your favorite TV show or democracy.

Yes, we let a rich idiot nobody elected destroy the entire government, but it was that or make rich people pay taxes so that poor people could go to the doctor

“Quiet night, Jimmy?” “Yeah. You want that topped off?” “Not just yet, thanks.” “Mind if I put on the TV?” “Anything but the fucking news.”

“Nancy, can I see you in my office?”

Marco Rubio's collaboration with Russia's Sergei Lavrov and Putin is one of the most disgusting acts of betrayal to democracy and our nation. Rubio has secured his place in history of infamy.

Fuck Marco Rubio. That spineless, feckless fucking weathercuck of a doormat flunky. Fuck him.

Good morning, Bluesky 🌞 Here’s a little reminder: You’ve got this. One breath, one step, one win at a time

Satanic ritual canceled. The goats keep eating the sacred parchment paper.

him: license and registration please me: *hands them over* him: *eats license and registration* me: now wait a min- him: *burps* insurance card please

Because you are sucking up to the owner of your newspaper?

The aurora right above me

If a “Democrat” like Dean Phillips says anything remotely like ‘actually Elon is on to something’ at this point just turn them off. It’s been 3 weeks. If you’re too fucking stupid to see this isn’t about saving money, fighting corruption, or preventing fraud then you are clearly compromised.

Biden left Trump the strongest U.S in 50 years GDP,jobs, markets,all thriving.His legacy is undeniable,future generations will ask why this administration didn’t win reelection.Trump,under no circumstances,can paint Biden as a failed president he is undoubtedly one of the best in modern U.S. history

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

Hey MAGA, anyone want to explain to me why getting rid of the agency that has prevented another 2008-style financial crisis is a good thing?

every day we see more and more evidence of society descending into utter lawlessness and chaos

“Yes, can I help you?” “Evening, neighbor. I just wanted to remind you that garbage pickup is tomorrow, and you seem to have forgotten to put your cans out.”

Recap: One side wanted statehood for Palestine. The other side didn't recognize Palestine or Palestinians. They wanted them gone. To steal their land and turn it into a riviera for their rich friends. To make the Palestinians refugees forever. Guess which side the pro-Palestine crowd voted for?

And with RFK Jr. at the helm, it’ll go from bad to apocalyptic… abcnews.go.com/Health/us-da...

Good night or good day, wherever you are. :)

While I had the big scope on the Moon and Jupiter last night, I had the #Dwarf3 🔭 on IC443, the Jellyfish Nebula. This is 332 x 15s exposures, gain 60, stacked and processed in PixInsight. #astrophotography This is with an LED streetlight some 8 to 10 feet from the smartscope!

“That bit in the second paragraph is total bullshit.”

For the late night crowd

We need a group of lawyers who are willing to take every lawsuit from every fired federal employee to the max. Bury this admin in lawsuits

Venus and the Moon are gorgeous tonight 😍

🍊 has frozen the "Road to Zero" program, a stunning elimination of Biden-Harris grants improving road safety across 🇺🇸 . Grant recipients got the "stop work order" from the National Safety Council. The website says the life-saving work is “on hold indefinitely." usa.streetsblog.org/2025/01/31/i...

If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.

Last year at a blackrock annual meeting, this just stunned me: they mentioned how they initially thought unions (like EU) were easier to control, but these became too regulated. Based on how “cheap” they could acquire land in Ukraine during war, the strategy was updated to “divide and conquer.”

Today 5 years ago, the UK's biggest ever act of self-harm was enacted... #Brexshit If you agree with me that we should #RejoinEU, I want to connect with you. #FBPE Also #FBR, #NAFO, and of course #LeftiesOfTheWorldUnite.

Senator Dick Durban to Kash Patel: "With all due respect, Mr. Patel, I've not worn the uniform of this country and neither have you. To think that you would denigrate Bob Mueller's service to our country and call him a 'swamp creature' is an indication of the depths your political views take you."

A memo leaked to the Associated Press reveals that the White House has told the U.S. CDC to stop working with the WHO immediately. This breaks protocol which requires the approval of Congress and a one-year notice to leave the WHO.

4. Don’t grade on a curve This goes both ways. Do not hold Republicans to a lower standard and do not hold Democrats to a higher one. When a Republican does something normal, recognize it is normal not exceptional. When a Democrat does something normal, recognize it is normal and not terrible.

Surely this will improve the lives of Rust Belt whites! talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/to-ba...

Black people are gonna observe Black History Month regardless. This shit just feels strangely petty and childishly goofy.

"Putting Kamala Harris as VP into perspective. See the red box? Until then, she would have been enslaved. See the blue box? Until then, she couldn’t vote. Yellow box? Until then, she had to attend a segregated school. The green one? Until then she couldn’t have her own bank account."
