Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

In today's episode of doomerism isn't a strategy, here's a list of things you can do today to make the world around you suck a little bit less: Pick ONE thing and do it. bsky.app/profile/itsa...

let me strongly recommend the flu shot to whoever hasn't gotten one for this season. i just had a *terrible* bout with the flu that almost certainly would have been WAY worse had i not been vaccinated

the “administrative state” in practice is a lot of very hard working, practically anonymous people doing the thankless work of making this country run and a drug-addled dipshit is slandering them in order to steal our money for himself

🚨ALL THESE ELECTIONS ARE TOMORROW! 🚨

my view is that as soon as the administration froze disbursement of congressional appropriations we entered constitutional crisis territory

Hey, folks - we really don't need X's takes about Kendrick's performance on Bluesky, we already know what they think. Keep the trash where it belongs so we can celebrate him here in peace.

"No white people during Kendrick's halftime show? So much for diversity" Oh you didn't hear? DEI got canceled. He clearly hired the best people for the job 😌

I don’t know about y’all, but I’m starting to think the only thing that kept the planes from crashing before was diversity.

JUST IN: Federal judges orders HHS, CDC, and FDA to restore “by no later than 11:59 pm” today their websites and datasets to pre-January 30th status. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I can’t unsee Samuel L. Jackson as Uncle Sam, it’s forever cemented in my mind. He was brilliant.

Kendrick Lamar managed to piss off all the right people. Well done.

I don’t care what side you’re on. If you’re not angry, you’re not paying enough attention.

The leopards wont even eat this.

Star Trek did say the 2020s were gonna be a little rough

Pandemics do not begin with official announcements. They start with quiet deletions, missing reports, and assurances that there is "no cause for concern." Pay attention.

CDC Posts, Then Deletes, Data on Bird Flu Spread Between Cats and People The data, which appeared fleetingly online on Wednesday, confirmed transmission in two households. Scientists called on the agency to release the full report. 1/

words fail

When someone expresses genuine regret voting for Trump, the best thing we can do is welcome them into the fold. We're not gonna get anywhere with ridiculous gatekeeping and pettiness. Let's offer folks an off-ramp into the coalition of reasonable adults.

Does anyone even give a fuck about Kanye anymore because I certainly haven’t for like a decade now

I’m going to need people to stop tone-policing Black people right now and telling us we need to “come together” with people who were partly responsible for this mess. We are rightfully pissed. You are not helping.

I’m already annoyed. Can hear the whining now.

NEW — DOGE now has full access to HHS Payment Management System, I’ve learned. The system distributes almost $1 trillion per year in grants (largest in the govt) and supports all of NIH, CDC + many other public health initiatives. Musk guy Luke Farritor is actively delaying payments to recipients.

Folks, it's gonna be a very long year if you're tagging me in every post with a video of Nancy Mace using an anti-trans slur. I understand your helpful intention, but please don't. Here's a great way to help: send it to the non-trans people in your life. Those are the folks who need to see it.

Calling Black people genocide supporters for voting against a return to Jim Crow America is a choice, also.

When white ppl take to the streets in mass, then I will do something. When white ppl decide to have a general strike, then I will do something. Anything short of that, I will do what I need to survive for me and mine. White folks are not going to get me out there screaming and hollering out front.

This is your daily reminder that both Merrick Garland and Mitch McConnell can go fuck themselves forever and ever.

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark “Proud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

👀 News: USPS has suspended inbound parcel service from China and Hong Kong.

like the dictators they worship, the american right cannot distinguish between the aesthetic and appearance of power and actual power

one thing you need to understand about the federal government is that they love acronyms

I see more criticism here of Democrats in Congress than I do condemnation of Republicans. And yet it is the GOP who are enabling Trump. It tells me a lot when I see you regularly bash our side but say nothing, ever, about the other. Reflect on your choices. You may be helping the fascists.
