in california they let dogs play basketball. teams of nothing but golden retrievers. they're pushing the human children out of sports because the rulebook doesn't explicitly say they can't play.

it would be great if we had a democratic party willing to go out and say “this is an insane lie to get you to irrationally hate a minority group trying to just exist peacefully” rather than start throwing us under the bus and twiddling their thumbs

As a cishet dude, when I see a Dem ditch trans rights, it sends a message: you ain't got no fight in you, no principles, just another empty suit. Think I'm some too-online outlier? Go ask your expensive consultants why people don't bother to vote. It's because they know you're all empty suits.

Nice try, Elon, but if it walks like a Nazi, talks like a Nazi, and salutes like a Nazi, it's a Nazi. #TeslaTakedown

Ok also AOC and Elon Musk are not in a “tit-for-tat feud.” AOC is a duly elected member of Congress who operates under an oath to our constitution and Elon Musk is an unelected Nazi billionaire whose wealth makes him think he’s above the law and empowered to illegally torch our government.

This is also why I’m not a fan of the FAFO line of post-election shitposting. How many people actually thought they were voting to, like, ban trees in cities and to pull the US out of the World Health Organization? Maybe they were naive. They were also lied to by a lot of powerful people.

They've been getting away with every imaginable war crime on public display for 16 months. The governments of the world have sent them a clear message that nobody will stop them from doing anything they want to Palestinians. That's why they stopped putting any effort into pretending

This is exactly the shit I had in mind when I wrote this. And here’s the thing: Musk is the one getting eyeballs! I guarantee some other assholes are doing the same thing, but with less profile.

Trump and Vance expect everyone in power to be as weak as they are, so it’s confusing to them that Zelenskyy might have the slightest bit of backbone. Trump just humiliated America (again) on the world stage and he is incapable of understanding that.

For the record, do I think a one-day boycott is going to make much of an economic impact? No. Do I think that a sort of "Baby's First Boycott," performative though it is, might be useful to make some folks aware of the impact of their economic power, and how it might be wielded politically? Maybe.

If you are a liberal in deep blue territory, one thing you could try doing right now is figuring out how to replace your Democratic member of Congress next year. With very few exceptions, the typical safe seat Dem is not meeting the moment. Find someone who will and help them.

They just repealed the equal protection of trans people to housing and credit. It was never about sports. It was never about kids.

Just got fired from being a freshman football coach, if you want to know what MAGA does to communities. They don’t care about what helps people, because the school is certainly not going to find an ex-NFL player willing to coach there at that level, they only care about trying to hurt people.

“Party leaders suggest that if lawmakers feel the need to hold such events, they do tele-town halls or at least vet attendees to avoid scenes that become viral clips, according to GOP sources.” Just absolute CHICKENSHITS
