It never stops being sickly funny and fascinating how the party of "family values" lives with a level of degeneracy that my pervert ass could never come up with. www.independent.co.uk/life-style/k...

Hegseth's tattoos got a lot of attention, but of course he denied they were racist. What probably should have gotten more attention: He belongs to a church that teaches slavery was the pinnacle of race relations. dougwilsonbelieves.com/beliefs/sout...

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Did the @nytimes.com really quote the mf-ing communications director of the Houston YOUNG REPUBLICANS as if he were just some random young Black person who likes Trump? Cause it sure looks like it.

Trump is now fully positioned to declare his opposition “antifa terrorists” and proceed to use the apparatus of law enforcement to silence his critics. That’s what the Kent selection means. open.substack.com/pub/davidnei...

Is there a stew subscription? Like every week you get a bowl of stew, some fresh bread, a hunk of cheese, a yellowed, tattered map and some ambient sounds of a cozy tavern in a rain storm?

Again, unless you *want* to be misinformed and misled, there’s really no reason you should ever read @axios.com

Okay, five articles in a row about The Current Nightmare is probably enough, right?

The idea that these Silicon Valley MAGA dudes are "intellectuals" is so frustrating. They're intellectuals like Trump is a "businessman." It just goes to show that in 21st-century America, all it takes is play-acting a stereotype and you fool people. davekarpf.substack.com/p/the-tech-b...

The legendary Battle of Lexington, by high school students Kurt Busiek and Scott McCloud. tombrevoort.com/2024/11/03/t...

NOTHING can destroy a Cyber Truck….😎😏 #WorldBollardAssociation

“The Maryland National Guard must decline events which celebrates individuals based all or in part on immutable characteristics,” the memo said. Douglass was an abolitionist, suffragist, orator and author. That’s what we celebrate him. Let’s be clear: This bars celebrating him because he was Black.

David's book on this subject is haunting: www.bookfinder.com/search/?ac=s...

you should read david’s thread for a thorough dismantling of this article. i will only add that it is very disappointing, although not altogether surprising, to see some progressives treat trump’s war on DEI as a legitimate policy difference and not as an explicit effort to resegregate the workforce

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

just occurred to me that I haven't seen a single person here celebrating Gromit's birthday today, we gotta step it up

Musk is trying to destroy the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which would regulate any "e-wallet" he starts. How does he trick his fans into hating an agency that protects them from scams? He tells them it has girl cooties. And they fall for it! www.salon.com/2025/02/12/l...

This thread just keeps getting better

This might be the most nakedly corrupt document I’ve seen on DOJ letterhead — and I wrote a history of Watergate!

As the forces of hatred are on the march, my promise is this: Our trans neighbors will continue to be safe, protected, and welcome in Minnesota.

THEY ARE DOING THE THING, THEY ARE DOING THE FUCKING THING, STOP TELLING THEM TO DO SOMETHING AND WATCH WHAT THEY ARE DOING
