They used they’re power to elect a traitor. Let them burn.

Fuck Donald Trump and fuck everyone who voted for him

Taiwan needs an upgrade package for the FCK-1. An FCK-1 Next Generation (NG). The FCK-1NG

COWARDLY QUISLING! LOATHSOME COPPERHEAD! TOADYING COLLABORATEUR! HANDMAIDEN OF AUTOCRACY! FRIEND TO INSURRECTIONISTS! SEGREGATIONIST LICKSPITTLE! RIGHT HAND OF THE DEVIL HIMSELF! TYRANT'S WHORESON! CONFIDANTE OF KLANSMEN! CONFEDERATE OF TRAITORS! ALLY TO OATHBREAKERS! BEDMATE OF FASCISTS!

eggs on their shelves, planes in their heaven, all's right with the world

Politico, the same outfit that spread a rumor that Biden would only run one term. That rumor became a sacred pledge that Biden violated. Yall were played by a right wing freak.

Education is in crisis.

Thanks, Joe

This is the way. We can build super safe reactors now. Solar has gotten so cheap. Battery tech has had recent breakthroughs. People are living in a scarcity mindset with energy. Green energy abundance is practical now and far superior.

🚨After eliminating parking requirements last year, Cambridge, Massachusetts has passed one of the more ambitious rezoning efforts in America tonight allowing 6-stories citywide by an 8-1 vote. Prior to this update, the City estimated only 350 new units would be built by 2040.

The funny thing is getting exposed to econ prior to the conspiracy brainrot In AP Macro they told me that the Fed controls the money supply So then after, when somebody would darkly intone "the Fed controls the money supply" I'd be like "yeah man, they do, that's true"

Donald Trump wants the Switch 2 to cost $800

They went into the elections under the rather childish delusion that they were going to deport everybody else and nobody was going to deport them.

A lot of well-intentioned people say "we don't need them to admit they're wrong"... but we do. We ended up with Trump *again* because millions of people happily rode their cognitive dissonance into absurd beliefs like "he'll only deport the bad people." They need to be brought back to reality.

People keep using "banana republic" to mean "government where insane (bananas) things happen" But the term was coined to be quite literal. They're vassal governments of tropical countries who enable their land to be heavily exploited for tropical fruit production.

Generally not a great sign when the judge is breaking out the bold + ital text to yell at you with a cite simply straight to the Constitution itself.

“you will go on much further in democracy; you will become much more democratic. I do not know where it will end, nor how it will end; but it cannot end in a quiet, ripe old age.”

Best day of the year, new old book day.

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

I’m introducing a constitutional amendment that requires any candidate or elected official who uses the phrase “so-called experts” to commit harakiri for the sake of national dignity.

Please don’t look away. Please

This kind of segmentation - "my brother and I against my cousin, my cousin and I against the stranger" - is so antithetical to the Christian concept of the political that one of the very first prerogatives of the Church was to break the backs of tribes and lineage groups in Europe

Schumer was unable to run a senate majority, let alone an opposition. He is a disgrace to the party and the country.

The single most important thing to remember is that every bad thing that has happened since Jan 20th 2025 is Donald Trump and the GOO’d fault

Q2 was a stupid, badly worded, badly thought out question that was always going to lead to chaos and is likely to lead to not insignificant damage to the mass school system. commonwealthbeacon.org/education/st...
