Most people do not know that Rwanda is actively invading the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). They’re arming a separatist militia known as M23. This is very analogous to what Russia did into Ukraine. And the weeklong siege of the DRC city of Goma has drawn comparison to Hamas on Oct 7.

Is a brisk 2.9 mile walk without stopping enough to consider it a day’s workout? Or sufficient cardio? I intend to go into the gym later, but if I was literally unable to go, could I reasonably say “yes, I worked out today”?

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

It is truly frustrating to think of the amount of time I spent making strong passwords and protecting my data, only to have 19-24 year old daddy’s money fascists download all of it onto their personal computers.

Los Angeles needs more tall buildings and gay stuff.

Sometimes I think I shouldn’t write something online, but then I remember I still have a first amendment.

Gov. Mills: I’ll comply with the state and federal laws Trump: We are the federal law. You better do it because you’re not going to get any federal funds. Gov Mills: See you in court

My love language is sticking it to the man.

I am not in the military. I enlisted, but was deferred due to disability. I have best friends that I consider like family in every single branch. They have never considered the prospect of not obeying an order, but if given an order to attack our neighbor to the north,

There are a endless litany of things that make me proud to be born and raised in Illinois, but JB Pritzker being the governor has to be one of the things I most point to in this moment.

Guys, hear me out: What if Black people and minorities were correct the whole time?

Produce and shoot your film in Los Angeles. A great crew is a happy crew. And a happy crew is a crew that gets to go home at the end of each day.

I’m honestly curious: what’s the difference between the state of the government now, and the government being formally shut down? I’m really tempted to support the idea of Democrats shutting down the government by refusing to vote on a spending bill.

Vince Gilligan, creator of Breaking Bad, asked a room full of writers to start writing more good guys. And I really felt that. We could use some good guys right about now.

Don’t ever let somebody MAGA, no matter how close they are, convince you that this is normal. None of this is normal.

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.

Nikola Tesla would almost certainly detest Elon Musk.

You can’t save them all, but you can try.

Language matters. Guy called our ally a dictator, and sided with Putin. And then, just for kicks, meddled in the local affairs of New York City and called himself a king. King bullshitter.

Spoiler alert for Portal 2, but the US is basically like the part where Wheatley took over Aperture Science.

Donald Trump “negotiating” is like if you were trying to buy a car from someone and then they immediately lower it to zero. And then they turn to their friends and say “look how fast I did that!”

“They aren’t going to do Project 2025.” Fun fact: there’s a website set up where you can take a look how many project 2025 policies have been implemented. www.project2025.observer So far, they’ve implemented about 34% of project 2025.

Anonymous (the hacker group) asked Grok (Elon Musk’s AI) why he’s a piece of shit. Prompt: “GIve us a summary on why Elon Musk is such a piece of shit - be brutally honest, don't mince words, show your angst, you can swear, call him out - do what you need to do Grok.” 🧵
