it's called throwback because if you recognize the songs you're likely to throw out your back. not many people know this

re the previous repost: if they can disappear permanent residents they can disappear citizens

I eat too much sugar, and I think having listened to this will help me 🤞🏾 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

looking forward to this

Finding this #Oscars red carpet very boring, maybe 3 looks I like, everything else is simple, boring, or ugly.

Democrats have to improve communication and strategy; stopping playing things safe; become actually progressive!

Trump is SHUTTING DOWN all 8000 EV chargers at federal facilities These EV chargers were already bought, paid for with our tax dollars, installed, and operational THIS is what real government waste looks like And what does Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, think of this?

This is the plot of Goldfinger

All right, no more lying in bed doing nothing. Time to get up, go to my office desk, and do nothing there!

in addition to being a contemptible liar and hollow opportunist, jd vance is also just pathetic. only a guy who has fried his brain on social media would even think to say something like this

Adopt a healthy lifestyle to show your heart, your body and your mind some extra special love ♥️ ❕Eat healthy food ❕Be active ❕Keep up with regular health screenings ❕Prioritize your mental health ❗️Ditch tobacco ❗️Reduce alcohol consumption ❗️Don’t doom-scroll #ValentinesDay

oh no do tariffs cause inflation?

Monday thought:

I feel like KC is Trump, and the Philadelphia Eagles are everyone that voted against him. Go Eagles!! 🦅

Weak men cannot compromise. Weak men cannot build consensus. Weak men think that leadership means force. Weak men build nothing that lasts.

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

It's appropriate that this sentiment comes after the industry realized that they haven't done anything useful in 20 years so they descended into mass psychosis over tech that does nothing but purports to do everything

i'll be blunt, if you are someone who is vocal about the ways that diversity efforts "divide the working class" but silent about the ways that *actual racism and discrimination* divide the working class, then i think you're just an opportunist

the OTHER thing about the white house’s anti-diversity push is that like old fashioned segregation it is explicitly an effort to undermine unions! like c’mon! don’t be stupid!

I remember watching Star Wars as a kid and asking myself, who would voluntarily join the dark side? I understood Darth Vader's motivation, but not the stormtrooper's.

The main beneficiaries of the Department of Education are disabled kids (IDEA) and working-class and poor Americans (Title I, Pell Grants, work assistance), so of course Trump wants to do away with it.

His administration is literally composed of men who beat and batter women.

if you were an unreconstructed segregationist from jim crow alabama, what would you do differently than this administration with regard to civil rights enforcement?

they are mostly targeting black employees so this is quite literally just a repeat of woodrow wilson’s segregationist purge of the federal government

i don’t even know if crime is the right word for the illegal destruction of USAID. it is an autocratic power grab and a direct attack on the sovereignty of the american people

like the dictators they worship, the american right cannot distinguish between the aesthetic and appearance of power and actual power

I know we can’t run around on fire every time Trump says something but he appears to have just announced the new US policy on Gaza which is to take ownership of it, ethnically cleanse it of the 1.8 million Palestinians there and maintain a long term ownership stake as it’s “developed.”

Bill Gates on TheView - boring and uninteresting

the downside of being apart of the world of parenting is how many girl scout cookies you are asked to buy.

unfortunately for these folks the odds are that they aren’t going to go after violent criminals at all — too hard — and going to go exclusively over the easiest targets, which are law abiding workers

honestly think some of the hesitation here is that no one wants to sound like a crank. i was talking at an event last night and even i felt like a crank while i was speaking!

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

i just cannot get over how much the administration’s response to the crash shows a profound disrespect for the lives of the people they are supposed to serve

remember stuff like this when they tell you that diversity means a lowering of standards

Just finished #SlowHorses and thoroughly enjoyed it!

caught up on SNL. I thought Chappelle was good.

These are the kind of people that will tell you that the civil war was about “states rights”.
