John Oliver's new segment on trans people in sports is pretty good. On content I give it like 7 or 8 out of 10, but you should def go watch it. It's so surreal seeing a high production quality media team actually do some research and treating trans people as human youtu.be/flSS1tjoxf0?...

Happening now in Concord, NH - #handsoff protest at the State House. Photo credits: Dan Splaine and Jeffrey Hastings. #NHPolitics

Since I posted this video, Newsweek and HuffPost have covered the story - which is great, but obviously nowhere close to enough

Legislators actively... sleeping during session. So much for listening to debate. #NHPolitics #NHHouse

Imagine being obliterated in a rocket explosion 11,000 feet above the Gulf of Mexico because you picked McNeese State over Gonzaga in the Sweet 16.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

There’s something happening in this country.

Should help with tourism. A plus. I’ll be surprised if Ayotte bats an eye.

Rep. James Spillane A six-term Republican state legislator and committee chairman said he deleted his share of a post on the X social media platform that referred to an upcoming summit of moderate political leaders as a “gay retards” summit. #NHPolitics www.unionleader.com/news/politic...

I love Bill Burr….every single word….no lie detected👇

Definitely going to bring the price of eggs down.

Maddow: If you don't have Bluesky yet, I recommend it. It is a social media network that doesn't make me want to stab myself in the eye with a rusty fork

Wait. Have @doge and Elon just been pulling numbers from usaspending.gov ? Then releasing it as if they discovered it ? Brilliant if true. Absolutely brilliant. Fooled me. Very Trump like too. Any usaspending.gov experts out there that can tell us ?

The New Hampshire House of Representatives voted 340-15 to withdraw House Bill 476, which would’ve banned abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy. #NHPolitics

So, despite the currently-falling snow, outdoor temperature in the range of 5°F to 7°F, and the chaos going on the federal level, NH House is still doing business as normal. Full House is in session and I'll be live posting. I only put the #NHPolitics hashtag once per thread, to avoid dominating it.

Rally currently happening outside of the NH State House in opposition to the federal actions currently taking place. #NHPolitics

What a horrible human being representing Rockingham District 16. Please vote this guy out! He should immediately resign (but no one does that anymore.)

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

In the waiting room for @nin.com tickets at Ticketmaster and it feels like I’m about to enter the Hunger Games.

I just heard from a nonprofit in Massachusetts that helps veterans with transitional housing. Trump's shutdown of gov funding hurts their ability to buy and prepare food for 100+ veterans. Rent is due in 5 days. The loss of funds could mean some veterans face eviction.

Should the program end, about 60,000 NH residents would lose health insurance coverage. In case you think that doesn’t affect you, the cost of uncompensated care for those folks will cause premiums to spike for those with private health insurance. indepthnh.org/2025/01/28/p...

Luckily we've got a real A Team heading in to this part of the U.S. government right now... 😬 www.nytimes.com/2025/01/27/h...

An earthquake was felt across New Hampshire on Monday morning.

We just had an earthquake in New England. About 30 miles from here, I'd say. Initially thought it was snow sliding off our roof. It was not.

Did we just have an earthquake in NH?

Had an awesome time chatting with Jon Stewart & @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social talking about how to fight the dumpster fire. Gear up. It’s time to brawl.

New Hampshire Republicans are doing everything they can to hurt the poorest and most vulnerable people in our state and I’ll never forgive them for it.

Don't be fooled by the name: "Right to Work" doesn't guarantee jobs or protect workers. "Right to Work" weakens labor organizing & hurts wages. We must stand up for stronger labor rights & fair conditions by opposing HB238. Oppose HB 238 here: gencourt.state.nh.us/house/commit... #NHPolitics

“The New York Times went with ‘Elon Musk Ignites Online Speculation Over the Meaning of a Hand Gesture.’ The Washington Post opted for ‘Elon Musk gives exuberant speech at inauguration.’ Some local TV stations even cut their footage right before the first and most obvious salute.”

LOL I just turned on TikTok for the first time since they came back and it was the FOX News live feed.

It all feels like a family with a genuinely abusive family member choosing to just carry on with the holiday traditions, hoping to create normalcy through sheer will and denial.
