Every day, I have to fight the intrusive thoughts of running for Congress to unseat Tom Emmer. I don't think MN-06 is ready for this take-no-prisoners, give-no-fucks leftist, but a girl can dream.

I need this kind of energy from every elected official with a (D) next to their name. This kind of energy should be standard, not just when they're on their way out and have no fucks left to give.

Kwame Ture put it far better than I ever could.

A lot of people are about to find out what happens when bread is too expensive and the circuses are all paywalled.

You are MEMBERS OF CONGRESS. If they threaten you with arrest for trying to access a site you are lawfully entitled to access, YOU MAKE THEM FUCKING ARREST YOU. YOU MAKE THEM SLAP THE CUFFS ON A CONGRESSMAN LIVE ON TV, YOU MAKE THEM FUCKING DO IT.

It's my professional opinion that Elon Musk should be launched directly into the Sun. (In case my NSA handler hasn't been fired yet, settle down. I don't have a viable way to launch Elon Musk into the Sun. Directly or indirectly.)

I've been seeing a lot of posts complaining about """Leftists""" being harsher on Democrats than Republicans, and it's driven me nuts. This post gets to exactly why we're yelling at Dems so much even though Republicans are the ones in greater power.

Seen on my news and academic feeds today: "This is highly illegal!" "Where are the courts?" "Someone needs to arrest him/them!" "The military needs to oust them!" "WHERE ARE THE DEMS?" This is the denial stage of grief. None of the above institutions are coming to save us. We are all we've got.

How fucking stupid and petty do you have to be to take issue with someone's pronouns in their email signature? - Jen Bloom (she/they/suck it, Nazis)

what rightly frustrates people, myself included, are these descriptive posts. we already know what’s going on. what are you going to *do* about it. call for hearings. call for impeachment. withhold your vote. promise complete obstruction. anything!

I wish I was more surprised about the sheer number of people who are celebrating the face-eating leopards, but who don't understand that their face just hasn't been eaten yet.

If you're struggling financially due to government fuckery or for any reason really and you need infant formula talk to your pediatrician we can hook you up and don't like to ask questions.

...can a brain be *too* smooth? Asking for 77,301,997 people.

Nothing to see here. Just your friendly local oligarch making an appearance at a rally for the closest thing to a Nazi party that Germany will legally allow. Totally normal.

People are registering displeasure with Cybertruck owners.

If you see this post, quote with a bridge from your gallery.

Am I still riding the high I got at Twin Cities Con from Broadway legend Alex Brightman enthusiastically agreeing to play the lead in my adaptation of A Dirty Job if I can manage to get my series script produced? Yes. Yes I am. #adirtyjob #alexbrightman #twincitiescon

Far right accounts will be hunting for people on social to post about and being attention to so they get their documents revoked. Far right accounts like libs of tiktok are essentially private stasi on the payroll of the oligarchs.

Didn't the MAGA crowd say that J6 was a false flag carried out by a bunch of leftists and antifa? So they should be livid that Trump just ordered the release of all of the leftist and antifa folks locked up for J6, right? ...right?

The inauguration was a carefully constructed fascist pageant meant to seize control of power and reality, foster an authoritarian environment on behalf of the oligarchs, and pummel us into early submission. It’s time to prepare for the fight. jaredyatessexton.substack.com/p/a-repulsiv...

okay you have "resist" in your bio and you're online calling him "Drumpf" but like, do your friends and neighbors trust you? do you actually have their back? do people who need help know they can come to you or do you think posting is enough?

Actually based. Good job.

Trump inaugural committee: Spending time outdoors in 25°F weather is just madness. We're moving everything indoors. Every Minnesotan: Hold my can of pop.

Step 1. Buy climbing blocks for human baby. Step 2. Dog babies claim blocks. Step 3. ??? Step 4. We are all Queen Freya's subjects now. Long live Queen Freya.

This. Stop this shit. tRump, Dumpf, Elonia, Rethuglicans, all of it. At best, it turns a serious discussion into a joke. At worst, you're hurting trans folks who see you laughing about misgendering someone. Calling them stupid names did fuck all to keep us from getting here. Find a new tactic.

The occupation of Fort Butthole, 2024.

Looks like I need to invest in the tiny, baby-sized coffin industry before RFK Jr is confirmed.

hm the horrors are persisting at a rapidly increasing rate
