you know it’s pride month when everyone online is watching 2 high agency males going at it

elon and trump are meeting outside uniqlo on sunday 5pm. 3251 20th Ave, San Francisco, CA, 94132

I just called the Minneapolis office of @klobuchar.senate.gov to ask what her stance is on defending immigrant communities in the face of illegal deportations and the very polite constituent service rep on the end informed me that he was not at liberty to say but could do a Google search. Appalling.

The GOP reconciliation bill would cut $300 billion from SNAP, starving millions of families. This is a matter of life or death for working families. And while billionaires win, the rest of us lose. Democrats won't stand for this, and neither should Republicans.

To "wait for the facts" is naive and dangerous. Abrego Garcia and two hundred others waited for the facts, giving the benefit of the doubt to a lawless executive, and their reward has been to spend 2025 and beyond in a Central American prison. Our rights and lives are in peril. Use it or lose it.

Our approach to climate change summed up in one photo from @mprnews.org . 🫠

By the way. The trademark registration for the Oath Keepers expired in May 2025. So if anyone is looking to own the name and has a few grand, it is up for grabs.

I bet JD Vance has dreams every night about the one that got away

Imagine the memes we’d have if JD Vance had been Vice President when the IKEA pride couches came out.

This is fucking terrible. Fuck ICE.

The NEH and @neh-odh.bsky.social is fundamental to making the US the global leader in new knowledge and innovation. The return on investment has been enormous and far outperformed the actual dollar amount. And this cut won’t even do anything to alleviate the national debt!

June is Pride Month. In this article, I explore several LGBTQ+ flags, how to recreate them using CSS and a single HTML element (fully responsive so they could double as icons), and share the history behind some of them. alvaromontoro.com/blog/68009/l... #css #webDevelopment #PrideMonth #CSSArt

For four long years I was told not to call what’s coming our way fascism but here we are:

Department of Homeland Security officers invading a congressman's offices and arresting a staffer who tried to stop them is very, very bad. gothamist.com/news/homelan...

An agent of death and suffering in league with the party of death and suffering. “If there were justice in the world, Musk would never be able to repair his reputation, at least not without devoting the bulk of his fortune to easing the misery he’s engendered.”

The flood of encomiums and morality tales about Elon's turn in Washington cldn't be more predictable, vapid & sickening. If you want a story, get me the story about the crisis comms team directing this. He ran anti-constitutional blitzkrieg thru the federal government, did massive harm, violated ...

"in sync, I think, with the administration and what the administration is trying to accomplish." What'll stop them from applying that to publishing? To news? To movies and television? To this very website? This is fascism lite testing the waters before becoming fascism heavy.

Fascism sets in EXACTLY like this. Days go by. Nothing improves. The people wait with bated breath for SOMETHING or SOMEONE to help. Court orders, but no enforcement. Time passes. We become desensitized. Life goes on. Rights are chipped away. Life goes on. People die. Life goes on.
