he/him, cishet disabled white guy who plays too many video games and also canvasses for socialist and progressive candidates in local and state elections. Trying to be nicer to liberals, its hard sometimes.

The caller's a Democrat. Exact same thing that happened a few weeks ago: a mob of liberals sneering at a poor person suffering under Trump simply because he's poor.

Here's pt 2 of this week's Better Offline. I walk through how the tech media misses the stories that hurt billions of people every day - and how deep down, most people really do love technology and miss when it wasn’t so actively harmful. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b... linktr.ee/betteroffline

Unfortunately you have to primary everyone, not just because they don't have what it takes to fight, but because they don't have what it takes to rebuild. Last thing you want is them to win by default and then tread water until the next Trump comes to power

Being radicalized increasingly since 2016 has just been banging my head against this post indefinitely.

People who did loads of Cocaine, Heroin, LSD, Quaaludes, Marijuana, PCP, Valium, Xanax, Opiods, cigarettes and Jack Daniel's back in the 70's and 80's: "Someone should really investigate how vaccines affect our children."

Very much like the Iraq War, somehow "I thought Elon Musk was a genius until a couple years ago" is now considered the more respectable and serious opinion than "I knew he was a fraud for a decade and was never fooled by him."

One of the first targets here will almost certainly be blocking the mailing of abortion medications like mifepristone. If I'm right, it'll be a the biggest blow to reproductive freedom since the repeal of Roe.

Get arrested preventing DOGE goons from entering public buildings, get arrested going into public buildings to find out what DOGE goons are doing, get arrested on the floor during confirmation votes to protest the rubber stamping of unqualified candidates

Oh fuck, what a grift. J6 terrorists sue a DOJ controlled by Trump; Trump orders DOJ lawyers to settle for an undisclosed amount, both sides agree to an NDA. This can happen dozens, hundreds of times. Just an ingenious way to funnel tax dollars to far-right terrorist groups.

Some of the same people protesting Hakeem Jeffries selling a book are the same people that want to remain friends with the people that voted away their rights and benefits 🤷🏾‍♀️ This country will never get better until people start calling a thing a thing.

X is a censorship engine run by a fascist regime. Posting there or using it as your source of news is collaboration with oppression.

Usually when states go to court alleging federal coercion in violation of the 10th Amendment there is not a literal video of the President doing it.

I'm starting to suspect that they might not actually be working for "All" of Mpls... 🤔

Medicaid coverage for virtual visits ends April 1st. As someone who cares for children that live up to 8 hours away, this is DEVASTATING. Children, adults, elderly will all suffer. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES The 5 calls app makes it easy!

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

has a single mainstream journalist acknowledged that it was a massive media failure to treat project 2025 as a closed issue just bc trump lied a couple of times about not supporting it

Musk has globally shadowbanned Grimes’ replies on X for the crime of informing him about their child’s medical emergency

conservatives aren’t actually afraid of subways and public transit, they have a very specific goal. they want big cities to seem scary so that less people to move to them / leave them so they’ll move conservative states instead, and so that they can privatize public transit

Wait he's self diagnosed? Fucking fraud in every aspect of his life.

Elon’s busy schedule today is claiming astronauts were left in the ISS for political reasons, getting corrected by an ISS astronaut, throwing a fit where he calls the astronaut a slur, then complaining that we should deorbit the ISS

This is exactly how Hitler talked. It's not even a comparison or analogy, as people claim. It's a direct connection in ideology as well as a similar approach to governance and relationship to democracy. This needs to be how we talk about it. They are the ideological descendants of Hitler.

People like Musk who make their fetishes everyone else's problem are the worst, and a lot of them belong in prison

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

Musk is straight up threatening advertisers to stay on X. This is exactly what anyone who knows anything about him expected him to do when he got this power. Musk very clearly sees the US government as just another new arm of his business empire. And is using it all as any authoritarian would.

drugs have taken too many beloved celebrities from us over the years but drugs also have a rare chance right now to radically rehabilitate their image

Musk removed her replies
