people only become left handed if the mirror baby crawls out when nobody is looking and pushes the normal baby into the mirror dimension. it’s a sign of bad parenting

my endorsement for any democratic presidential candidate who promises to send the entire DOGE team to prison

“Khalil has not been charged with a crime. Instead, the Trump administration alleged that his presence poses adverse “foreign policy consequences.” BREAKING: @delaneynolan.bsky.social reports on the possible deportation of Mahmoud Khalil, a detained student arrested for pro-Palestine activism.

I hate it here

Here's my early nomination for quote of the year to get in the "Liberation Day" spirit.

Lessons that @booker.senate.gov learned from MAGA Republicans that other Democrats should put into practice: 1. Never shut up 2. Don't be afraid to be the story 3. If it's not going your way, delay delay delay

what booker is doing right now is an example of what i mean when i say things like “we need more ambition right now.” there is room in american politics right now for people with ambition to take big stands and reap the rewards. he’s doing it!

Gonna get a lot of use out of this quote over the next 4 years.

Good. Learn more about your rights when approached by ICE at www.aclu.org/know-your-ri...

it’s becoming increasingly clear the goal of the far right is to defund and buy up every source of reliable information until there is no more objective reality to counter them

we really deeply need exactly this.

The rules, if you are keeping track: If a single left activist anywhere in the world says "defund the police," it becomes the official position of the Democratic Party, now and forever. If the president's top surrogate repeatedly sieg-heils on stage, it's ambiguous, impossible to interpret.

Trump gets in bed with the Chinese owners, and suddenly Tik Tok isn’t “evil CCP compromised” anymore. These people believe in nothing. What Trump decides today is what they believe in today. Which changes tomorrow if Trump makes a deal with someone else to enrich himself.
