I think we have to confront the fact that tens of millions of Americans have pledged slavish allegiance to a man who says explicitly that his benchmark for when America was great is 1913. And then we have to think about the possibility that we are in the throes of a nationwide mental health crisis.

Hi, are you doomscrolling about tariffs? Have you had something to eat? Is there an offline activity you can do tonight instead, like read a book, compile a list of essential items you need to stock up on, or call an elected official about the recession ahead? Try not to stay up too late tonight.

I spoke to a South Carolina woman today who is miscarrying - her fetus has no heartbeat - but the state's ban is preventing doctors from taking action. She has to walk around with a dead fetus for another week so she can get a FOURTH ultrasound. This is what bans do.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?

Nice people made the best Nazis. My mother spent her childhood in Nazi Germany surrounded by nice people who refused to make waves, chose not to focus on politics... They were lovely, kind people who turned their heads as their neighbors were dragged away. Naomi Shulman www.wbur.org/cognoscenti/...

Administration defunds the National Institute for Occupational Health and Safety. Fewer American workers will survive their shifts & make it home safe to their families in the years ahead. But we can give billionaires a bigger tax cut & free bosses from rules that keep workers' safe! #priorities

Hey here’s another lie depression tells you: “When I’m in really rough shape, my friends and loved ones don’t want to hear about it. I’d just be a burden to them.” NOT SO. They do want to hear. They want to help. Even if the help is just hearing about it. CALL THEM. Okay I love you bye.

OMFG. Read this and weep for our country and the man whose life is ruined. The Trump administration did this and now claims it can't be fixed. That's not good enough. All Americans should be losing their minds over this, even those who don't usually pay attention. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Note the government is doing 2 separate things here: 1) Acknowledging it made a mistake (violated US law by deporting someone who was legally protected from deportation). 2) Refusing to fix the mistake by claiming it has no authority to do so.

The GOP fought tooth & nail for decades against classifying acts of racial terrorism as federal hate crimes because they saw it as "federal over reach." Now they're all "ooh, let's make it a federal crime to vandalize cars built by the world's richest man who's also our biggest campaign donor."

Please, please listen: It is really important that Senator Booker is met with praise and positive reinforcement not just on BlueSky but on X, on Facebook, and on Instagram. Take a few minutes and leave some positive engagement across social for Booker (Yes, I know the game is absurd)

So many people, including the world's richest man, falsely believe that having a Social Security number allows you to vote. It does not. It is entirely unrelated to citizenship. Any person who can work legally in the country gets a Social Security number so they can pay taxes! There's no conspiracy!
