POV me eating breakfast rushing to get to work every day

True story: when I was like 22 I helped organize a climate justice focused tour with musicians and workshops and stuff and our veggie oil bus broke down. I emailed Tom to ask if maybe he could do a benefit or something. He asked for the address and mailed us a check

Just catching up on the news

I don’t care what Ozturk wrote. It doesn’t matter. This is America. We’re fucking free to have opinions of all sorts. It doesn’t matter. You don’t get to lock up people for bad thought. That’s against the fucking law and morals and fuck every last person arguing that this is a crime. Fuck all of em

This is the right approach — speak to them as you would an especially stupid child, spell out their crimes and your contempt clearly.

Army veteran Harry Miller was stationed in Germany when the Nazis surrendered. Upon hearing the news, he recalls that American troops went to sleep or shook hands. "And some just couldn't believe it."

“Republicans pass cruel law that needlessly kills good thing that helps people” is their entire m.o., and half the country keeps voting for them anyway Make it make sense

fuck this bullshit I do not want to have to touch an actual cow every time I want some milk for my coffee, this is the entire reason grocery stores were invented you dumb bitch

When asked if the United States should have a military parade to show off its might, President Eisenhower responded: “Absolutely not. We are the pre-eminent power on Earth. For us to try and imitate what the Soviets are doing in Red Square would make us look weak.”

Just noting - Trump is bragging about decorating the Oval Office in gold while telling America's kids to cut down on buying toys.

🧵 NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night. Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.” She’s a constituent. Not a threat. Fascism again.

Me and the boys about to hit the club in Pallet Town

Thank you, Trump voters. This should make America healthy again.

and coming from the most thin skinned and whiniest group of people constantly complaining about people being mean to them

Can I just point out how especially fascist this is? They want this to be about Abrego Garcia's worthiness, rather than his (and thus everyone's) right to due process. Under fascism, there's no universal system for ensuring people's rights. Instead The Party decides who has rights and who doesn't.

Ocean Beach, San Francisco today. 👏 #50501movement #HandsOff (📸 Stephen Lam, SF Chronicle)

Just walked up to someone and asked if they’ve been traumatized by bees

FYI folks I’m “online” and boy do I have some opinions

But the lulz, bro, think of the lulz.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

🧵DISMANTLING DEMOCRACY I've been keeping track of Trump actions - now up to 192. Here, I dig into 69 actions specifically targeted at undermining democracy, rule of law & suppressing dissent. It's been 12 weeks of assaults on democracy. based on christinapagel.substack.com/p/a-republic... 1/18

File impeachment articles that are just direct quotes from the Declaration of Independence

The great thing about fighting back against this stuff is that if you end up losing anyway you get the same outcome you’d have gotten from complying but you don’t have to fucking hate yourself too.

Unprecedentedly & wildly illegal & unconstitutional crimes now happening hourly. Every hour he remains in office is a complete & total failure of Article I of the Constitution.

Politics hasn't been this simple in a long time: do you think it's good for one man to exercise unchecked, arbitrary power or not. Those are the two available ideologies right now

Did…did JD Vance just break the national championship trophy?

i will never apologize for a post

Megan brought Queen Latifah out at Coachella 😮‍💨🔥 love to see Queen get her flowers
