Go to a rural area and ask folks if it’s okay to take seconds before everyone gets a first helping. Ask them if hungry kids should be fed. Ask them if the community should help a neighbor who has fallen on hard times. Rural folks are the ultimate socialists—help them remember their values.

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State. H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

The trick to social media is to think that people care what you have to say but never worry about whether they actually do.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

THERE WILL BE NO BAILOUTS. The administration WANTS you to lose your house, your farm, your retirement, your savings. They’re actively counting on it so the billionaire robber barons can scoop it all up for pennies on the dollar. Your loss IS the plan.

The only difference between a guy “acting like a nazi to troll the libs” and a guy “being a nazi” is how the guy sees himself. And if you’re acting like a nazi I don’t really give a shit how you see yourself.

Had a bad dream that I was accused of killing a woman named Juanita Burrito. Woke up and realized I want a restaurant called: Ju Nita Burrito. Wrote it down, then went back to sleep. Woke up, saw what I’d read and have decided to stop waking up to write myself notes.

More good information from @chrismurphyct.bsky.social Last night in the Senate, something really important happened. Republicans forced us to debate their billionaire bailout budget framework.

Young voters really don't like Elon Musk. His unfavorability is 54% with all voters. 67% with voters under 30. Feels important for a party that needs to win a much bigger share of young voters.

EPIC longread on the rise, fall, and general chaos of a group of techies who went to a dark, dark place in the name of saving the world. There's so much in here I don't know where to begin other than to say it's worth making time for.
