I think if I had this much leverage I would demand more than "Let's reassert what the law already is." The demand should be to eject Elon and his teens from the government. They're enormously unpopular what's the problem

Why am I listening to Glee’s version of the time warp at 7 am?

The more I learn and get better at magic the more magic I want to play. I feel like I need to get my students into it

*frantically smashing answer buzzer* what is, the adult fiction section of your hometown public library when you're 12-14 years old

This is one fight I will never give up.

Magic is such a fun game

The one that bought your country.

Wow…I had to double, triple check to make sure this tweet from Senator Smith was real. Rare to see a US Senator tweet like this. Not complaining, just surprising.

Elmo is demanding that 2.3M federal employees submit 5 bullets representing their accomplishments last week (or be fired). Fun fact. If 2.3M employees spend 5 minutes each answering that email, it will cost taxpayers $8.5M. Your taxpayer dollars funding his harassment of Feds. Now you know.

Those in power from both parties who couldn’t find the courage to stand up to Netanyahu will not find the courage to stand up to President Trump and the oligarchs.

As I said before, the eighth amendment to the US constitution doesn't seem to apply to us trans people.

Sage wisdom from two experienced legal aid attorneys. In any interaction with police or law enforcement, including ICE: “Shut the f*ck up.”

Less than 12 hours til con time :)

Gonna have the biggest FOMO today with everyone at Magiccon while I teach 😂 maybe I’ll teach some kiddos magic during their free period

He's gonna fuck up every single independent creator who depends on the mail for their business. Call your reps and tell them you didn't vote for Trump to destroy your business. reps.fyi

From the English teacher who recites a poem to help memorize prepositions to the science teacher’s monologue about the importance of conservation, teachers are often the first performers we encounter in life. So maybe it’s no surprise that some of them have made the move to the stage.

did the doctor from arrested development write this

About to find the answer through Magic the Gathering

Grimes, who has three children with Elon Musk, is trying to get his attention by posting on the app he owns.

God I want to call off work and just go to #MagicConChicago tomorrow but alas the kiddos need me- Saturday and Sunday will be fun enough!

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

Also for people following for Magic! I randomly also go on Film / politics rants!

Big props to whoever at WOTC had a blank graphic schedule made to match the formatting of the "I'm going" images. It's been *SO NICE* scrolling socials and being able to instantly have my brain register ~ this person is going to Magic Con. Please please continue this for the future it's unifying!

God I am so fricken excited for #MCChicago

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

Walked into 7-Eleven, heard Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls playing and all thoughts left my brain

Our guy walks into a totally unfamiliar environment with the craziest possible shit happening all around him and still somehow manages to make the correct moral choice like 85 times in a row.

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

AOC has them sputtering mad because she’s educating people on constitutional rights. You don’t see them freaking out at Jeffries for talking about egg prices.

i will become a total shill for whichever politician decides to become the joe mccarthy of rooting out silicon valley ideology and influence

If Kamala was president, there might have been a plane crash as a fluke. But then, she would have worked to solve the problem. Her Transportation Secretary (either Buttigieg or someone new) would have been on it. Meanwhile, that dude from the Real World is busy firing air traffic controllers.

“I’m gonna have to look up this FDR fellow. He’s been in a few historical photos. Wonder if he did anything.”

That’s enough internet for today. Gonna just leave you with this @alfredtwu.com cartoon.

Idk what peoples problems are with Rings of Power. This show is brilliant

We are in an information war and so far, Trump & Musk are winning. We urgently need a credible, loud, daily counter narrative. The Democrats can & should take the lead using the same playbook as the blue state Governors' covid briefings. My latest ⤵️ 1/🧵 open.substack.com/pub/jennifer...

I am so excited for Magiccon Chicago

The rings of power opening score is both beautiful and lasts the perfect amount of time to go to the bathroom

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

It's just so important to look at oneself first. If you're asking why OTHER people aren't doing something that YOU aren't, you'll find part of the answer in why you aren't doing said thing.

Organizers of nationwide protests planned for Monday, when the U.S. will mark Presidents' Day, appealed to those who oppose President Donald Trump and billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk's agenda. www.commondreams.org/news/anti-tr...

I know it’s a lot of doom and gloom and people don’t know where to start so my suggestion is find your neighborhood/close by community fridge. Take when you need and donate when you can. That is something you can do.

I just added more things to this list today: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”
