I'm exhausted, and I know you are too. But I see you. I hear you. And we will prevail. 🧪

He looked like he needed it.

Hi, former White House intern, DNC communications staffer, and re-election team partner here: One does not ‘slip’ into the Oval Office. Does not. Period, ever. That’s not a thing.

If you’re siding with Vladimir Putin, you’re wrong.

ANYWAY, did you know there's an extension you can put on Chrome that will connect with your local library system and when you go look at a book, say on AMZ, it will tell you if that book exists in the library system and if it's available? It's literally called Library Extension.

Knew she was a good egg

I've lost count of the times I've been asked about bias when reporting stories about Asians and Asian Americans. I have replied, "There are more than 4 billion Asians in the world" and "White people aren't asked this when they only write about white people."

YOUR FAVORITE WEATHER APP IS JUST A PRETTY DISPLAY OF NOAA DATA Ppl seem to think that "NOAA weather forecasts" means climate-, boat-, or "in addition to my app"-weather. But the weather forecasts *we all use* are made from the NOAA data *we all paid for* Make that part clear when you ⬇️

The last time we lost a child to measles in this country was 2003. My heart goes out to all the families affected by the ongoing outbreak. This terrible disease making a comeback is NOT normal. We need and deserve leaders who understand the urgency of this moment.

1/8 RE: Passports/trans/nonbinary The US State Dept is asking for public comment on their changes to govt ID/passports that penalize trans people. PLEASE take 5 mins to leave a comment via the 3 links below—and share!! You can use the same comment 3x. I'll share sample text (over several posts)

The fact that the USA has banned visas for trans people but welcomed rapist Andrew Tate shows how all this "defending women" stuff is total bullshit

"Cuts have no apparent regard for civil society or opportunity costs or long-term strategic thinking. Their targets are Elon Musk’s and Project 2025’s targets. They have found no fraud, just democracy at work. They’re apparently eager to see what happens when it no longer does." Brian Barrett:

It's the Musk Effect. Someone who sounds like a genius until he starts talking about something you're knowledgeable about, and you realize he's saying the dumbest shit ever.

Our lives would be so much better when we realize it doesn't matter what these people think.

Finally getting into #TedLasso What a show!

This games industry bloodbath is because of corporate mismanagement and pure, unrestrained avarice. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

By not defending the AP publicly and strenuously the WHCA showed they were unwilling to act as an organization on basically the main purpose they were formed. These are the consequences of that choice.

If I were a Democrat, and I saw Trump do a purge of high-level generals who were women and people of color and wouldn't be "yes men," I wouldn't vote to advance JD Vance's college friend for Secretary of the Army. And yet....16 Democrats just did so

Pod Save America brought on Bill Maher to spew easily disproven anti-trans talking points. They keep saying they’re not anti-trans and trying to walk back statements they make. I have offered to go on their show to talk. I’m offering again now. Talk to a freaking trans person.

STOP CONCEDING ANYTHING AT ALL TO ELON MUSK

Never forget the Democrats leadership including Hakeem Jeffries gave this whiffling 74 year old the leadership role on the vital Oversight Committee allegedly just to punish AOC

It's never good when the richest person in the world and the worst person in the world are the same person.

Found on Reddit and too good not to share #noking

"Key congressional Republicans have powers they’re choosing not to use... "Senator Susan Collins, for example, believes the White House and DOGE may be breaking the law. She doesn’t, however, seem eager to use her considerable influence..." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

This is the template, Democrats.

I was alive when Barack Obama had 45% approval ratings. The MSM treated that as NO MANDATE for anything.

RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen. 1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.

I am begging the media to put the focus on what was cut, and what the effects of those cuts are likely to be, rather than some nebulous topline number that implies to people that they’re actually doing what they say they are their “savings” will cost us far more than this, in money and terror

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Really don’t think we can understate how much troll culture is now political culture

In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children. We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread. www.cbsnews.com/news/texas-m...

Taking it back to the 90s this afternoon. Simpler times. Space - Female Of The Species (1996) #music #britpop

You can make an argument--from their defunding of sexual violence resources to their treatment of incarcerated trans women to Trump himself--this is an adamantly pro-rape administration

I hope they ask for more money to come back

The party of free speech!

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes
