Although he isn’t a religious figure this is giving Sons of Jacob vibes from the handmaids tale

So Dems should create the bandaid/safety-net for Rs to take credit for if they do vote for it, but get zero credit for even trying if the Rs don’t vote for it? Why do Dems have to ENABLE the Rs shitty representation of their constituents, as well as their blatant disregard for the constitution?

My desire to be well informed is currently at odds with my need to be detached from reality.

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

Email from my father last night.

The king post is a troll and ploy for media attention but it’s also continuing their goal of desensitization… magats will dismiss it, talk about Jr. calling him the King of New York in the past, “it’s not that serious,” etc…

Donald Trump is saying if Ukraine hadn't dressed so provocatively Russia wouldn't have invaded her.

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

in terms of professions that do indeed owe you something, politician is actually one of the big ones

JUST IN: ICE van reportedly set on fire in Philadelphia

Send out a company-wide email tomorrow saying you're bringing in a team of pubescent hackers to break into everyone's private information in order to find instances of waste and fraud. Let's see how it plays out.

you know what else was woke, the French revolution

Hundreds of asylum seekers from around the globe are being trapped by the US in a Panama hotel where they'll eventually be sent to a camp in the jungle. One Chinese man said “I thought: America is a free country with respect for human rights. I had no idea it was like a dictatorship.”

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

it's not like I'm violent. I'm feeling very... forceful

Just remember, the time between an apparent decisive victory (the destruction of the first Death Star) & an actual decisive victory (the destruction of the second Death Star) was 4 years, during which most of the time life sucked for everyone because the Empire was striking back all over the place.

I just know that orange mf is gonna pull some “but I didn’t place my hand on the Bible when I took the oath so technically…” if we ever seriously attempt to hold him responsible again.

So, if there are no laws to hold us back from saving the country, 🧐

They were discussing Mary Poppins on @alltherightmovies.com and they mentioned that ‘A Spoonful of Sugar’ was inspired by one of the composer’s sons getting the polio vaccine in a sugar cube. A bright, cheery, classic song that sprang from the eradication of a horrific disease.

Do you remember that time Pence tried to see Hamilton and the cast called him out. Or when McConnell was chased out of a resraurant and not allowed a peaceful meal. Or when Cruz abandoned Texas during the deep freeze and we shamed him into going home. That. Do that.

I used to laugh at the "I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread" Bilbo line, but boy do I get it now

Roses are red Witches are cool Who’s idea was it To let rich men rule?

Me: BATMAN BEGINS is great, but I was amused by the writers’-fiat plot device that a place can be SO corrupt that some reasonably-organized foreign actor can just puppeteer it on a whim. Me, 20 years later: fuck

looking back, AOL had it right. 30 hours of internet per month was the right amount.

The only good news today is the probability an asteroid strikes the earth in the next 10 years is up to 3%.

I know Elon has claimed he’s on the spectrum, and people have various theories on it, but what if he’s just a racist asshole who’s high on ketamine all the time?

i have an Excel question. does anyone know what formula to use for when you don’t know what to do about anything at all anymore

A historic graphic of corruption. The 11 federal agencies so far targeted for firings or dismantling by Elon Musk have more than 30 ongoing investigations into his companies. (📸 Malika Khurana for NYT)

"the violent public death of one guy never changed anything" oh yeah then how come I know who Archduke Franz Ferdinand is

We need Steve's emotional rescue.
