All of this, every bit of it, traces back to the failure of the U.S. government to invest in public education for decades and expecting overworked and underpaid educators to make up the difference.

when you’re so racist you don’t let your workers have a day off for a holiday recognizing the end of slavery

Remember when they told us we didnt want Universal Healthcare because in Canada the wait for an appt was months long? Well in Socialist Canada, doctor wait for you! What a country!

I have never understood the concept of being mad about a day/month celebrating people. Be happy for them. Celebrate with them. Mourn w/them, if warranted. Understand why that day/month is important. It's not hard to just not be a dick about this, and if it's too hard for you, you're the problem.

Mark Waid is one of a small handful that just GET Superman. Met him at a pre-hollywood con to get Kingdom Come signed and he was so nice to that awkward kid

"Since people without cancer don't need cancer meds, we've banned cancer meds because it's not fair to give people with cancer special treatment." That's how transphobes sound, and honestly, this new law makes it easier to ban other forms of medicine, which they clearly want to do.

I cant wrap my head around these cats forming parasocial relationships with chatgpt. The few times I used it, it’s understanding of the topic at hand was so juvenile…ok nevermind I just figured out

Let me tell ya, brother. I was originally gonna die in the plane with Buddy Holly. They asked me to be there with them. But then Verne wanted me for Starrcade, they were putting the strap on me, so I didnt go. 90,000 people in CenterStage saw me go over on George Hackenschmidt instead.

I had to make sure this was real. I checked it's real. Ted Cruz is a contender in the competition for the most insane case of "I didn't understand the message of the text."

Another shitty fucked up evil decision from the 6 unelected overlords is just another day in hell. We've had many like it, we'll probably have many more. Keep fighting. Keep living. Fuck them. Don't let them tell you shit about who you are or what you're worth.

"Bluesky is dying" Well, it is made up of a bunch of creatives, leftists, and trans people, many of whom have disabilities. Thus we are being non-specifically marked for termination by the government through denial of healthcare, replacement by AI, and inability to live in public. But we're mean ☹️

imagine if blue maga spent half the energy they spent screaming at dissenters and instead directed it at the leadership of the democratic party to stop helping fascists.

In libraries, we call this vocational awe. The idea that if you are invested in your calling, you should accept low wages/inhumane conditions is a nasty little trick of capitalism. I’m an author, I’m hungry, I care deeply about my work, AND I deserve to be paid for it.

Its 2002 all over again. Clinton was going to take us to war to distract from all the things but then Bush took us to the same war because MURICA. They ran the same playbook on Obama/Biden

We need to collectively refer to ICE as Gastapo or Secret Police or whatever. Make them own their place in history

Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

white christian fascism is not “fringe”. it's inspired by huge networks of churches, media and doctrine. it's enabled by the state. it's excused by liberals. Boelter wasn't a confused weirdo. he is the logical conclusion of a now mainstream christofascist formation.

theyre throwing people in prison, abducting them, literally shooting and killing them. and the opposition party is still playing baseball with them and sending them emails asking pretty please be good. the response is inadequate, to put it mildly.

Another one. Are people realizing what’s happening? Union leaders, protest organizers, active duty members of the military, sitting members of Congress have ALL been illegally arrested on phony charges and elected democrats have been assassinated. What more needs to happen for people to see it?

Its telling and damning that so many are failing to meet the moment. Murray has/had a rep of being a dogged fighter. But time has moved on and the fight has changed and most of congress is too out of touch for the modern world

Anecdotal but heres how I know AI is mostly bullshit. Ive been an early adopter my entire life. I was on the BBS’ and the World Wide Web and the Information Super Highway. And every time a company tries to shove their little bot at me I uncontrollably yell “SHUT UP! JUST SHUT UP ABOUT THE AI!”
