A reminder in dark times: kindness, mercy, decency, and respect towards the least of us enrages Trumpists. It burns them. It’s like a mirror that shows them how they fall short of humanity. Kindness and decency towards the people Trumpists hate is not just right; it torments Trumpists.

Chuck Schumer is gonna end up forming a two-person support group with Drake.

Farmers often have pitchforks right?

I owe an apology to all James Bond movies. I mocked them for having completely unrealistic, cartoonish villains that simply weren't believable. 2025 has made it impossible to levy that criticism anymore.

Yep, eugenics is the point.

No one likes a bully. Simple and powerful message.

Better sleep with a sober cannibal than a drunken Christian.

For her performance of "Strange Fruit" a song about lynching African American people, she would silence the crowd, a spotlight on her face. On the final note, all lights went out and she was gone.... Singer Billie Holiday,1947 #WomensArt (Image by D.Hagerman)

I wonder if Vance shares his anti-immigrant views at the dinner table…

"We’re in a dangerous moment. We’re in a period of backlash. There will ultimately be backlash to the backlash, and it’s our job to swing the pendulum back."

Third party voters are going to learn the hard way that the Democratic Party did actually keep fascist oligarchy at bay.

Does the drug-testing policy apply to “special government employees”?

Musk accidentally sent the email to Trump and he responded: 5 things I did last week by DJT: Sunday: Golf Monday: Golf Tuesday: Golf Wednesday: Golf Thursday: Adderall Friday: Depends.

The nations top research universities (R1) are under assault by the Trump administration. Pitts has paused all PhD admissions for next year. Many R1 schools are also Division 1 NCAA schools. All SEC, Big 10, ACC, Big 12, Ivy League schools. Suspend sports and explain it is due to Musk, Trump

Literacy is activism. Reading is a political act. Books are tools for liberation.

"This chapter will be written, not simply by whoever occupies the Oval Office, nor by the wealthiest among us. The American story will be written by you, written by us, by WE THE PEOPLE." - Kamala Harris, NAACP Image Awards (02.22.25)

This is what hope looks like. This is what the future looks like. This is why we must fight: for this young man and our kids.

It’s really something to watch the Party whose supporters poop on the floor in the Capitol and wipe their feces on the wall tell us which bathrooms to use.

Listen, who needs Medicare or Medicaid?! We have Açaí berries!

Uncommitted was a trauma-informed movement, reason simply could not penetrate. My beef is with Jill Stein. This is the second time she has blocked a female best candidate from the Oval Office in favor of a rapey regime

Naomi Beinart, 16: "We girls woke up to a country that would rather elect a man found liable for sexual abuse than a woman...Where the body I haven’t fully grown into may no longer be under my control. The boys, it seemed to me, just woke up on a Wednesday."

The whole spectacle was heartbreaking, but I am glad we got to witness Mike Tyson’s heroic twilight. Probably didn’t need to see those buns of steel.

It feels like we are at a hurricane shelter, running into neighbors, comparing notes, bucking each other up. Blue skies to us all.
