Friday funny

American presidents don’t even joke about this. Just because he’s petty doesn’t mean this isn’t dangerous.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Some don’t even realize they’re actually eating all the faces.

Since Putin’s “reason” for invading Ukraine was that it was once part of the USSR/Russia, what’s to stop him from invading Alaska to take it back?

Just asked the Solar folks if we could get a battery by someone other than Tesla. They’re checking into it. Got the feeling I’m not the first person to ask.

Best way to get Elon Musk out of things? Refer to him as “President Musk” on Social Media every day. Every. Day. In all kinds of posts—just throw it in there. Trump will lose his mind, and the bromance will fall apart.

When Putin & the Russian mafia took over Russia this is exactly how they did it. Now that they took the Treasury hostage only the military can stop the bad guys if there are even any good guys left. It’s World War 3 now & we are under attack & you should have a game plan to survive & to thrive.

We must to everything in our power to fight back. We must not be fooled—his actions are no different than those of Hitler in 1933 Germany. So, what do we, as “everyday” Americans, do? Let’s make a list.

Small aggressions. So offensive that Trump cannot be bothered to button his jacket at official events. And now Rubio is following suit (pun intended) while speaking to US Embassy employees in Panama. Rude. Disrespectful.

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Pretty sure the black boxes will simply say “It was the DEI hires.” 😡 (Trump is a twat.)

A message to the US Senate: America is watching. Patel, Gabbard, and RFK are more than just unfit. They are a danger to our country, and to our people's safety. Use your vote to protect the people you represent. History will remember your choice.

LOL! Headline on MSNBC: Trump’s January 6th Pardons Spark Backlash Big deal. What’s anyone gonna do? Write a strongly-worded letter? Dems are outraged but do nothing, and Republicans are cowed by him. We’re in for a world of hurt for the next 4–or more—years.

Usha Vance had the same fake smile/terrified look on her face all day. She knows she’s trapped. #Inauguration

In fairness the resulting fire and explosion might have set off the sprinklers.

@velshimsnbc.bsky.social @joy.msnbc.com @MSNBC Why did Trump not place his hand on a Bible when being sworn in? (Had it been a Dem, GOP and MAGA heads would have exploded.)

Interesting. Trump didn’t put his hand in the Bible when he took the oath of office.

ON JANUARY 20TH, READ MLK! READ ABOUT THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT! READ ABOUT RECONSTRUCTION! READ ABOUT JIM CROW! You want to do something for the good of history? Do something constructive and learn from the ancestors.

So, folks who left that other platform for BlueSky—are you deleting your account entirely, or just letting it sit with no activity? Asking for a friend. The friend is me. I’m the friend.

@CNN @MSNBC @NYTIMES @WAPOST It is imperative that you call out Trump’s desires to take over Canada, Panama, and Greenland as the unhinged rants they are, rather than sane-washing them. They are sovereign nations, not “territories” available for annexation. #DoYourJobs #CrazyTalk

....and another thing.

This is the trans athletic scare that has half the nation in a tizzy. It’s manufactured fear, playing off of ignorance and bigotry.

A bright spot in my day/month/year—this tiny, tiny ponytail. 😹

As the child of a librarian, being in vehement opposition to book banning is in my DNA. #IReadBannedBooks #LibrariesAreLife #KnowlegeIsPower

imagine a country so furious about drag performers that it voted for polio

Why are so many (usually Republican) men obsessed with how many children we’re having? It’s almost as if they want to control us by keeping us pregnant….

Why do the major fast-food chains sell burgers, salads, and chicken, but not hot dogs or corn dogs? #InquiringMinds
