It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Conservatives are only three-fifths human, which explains all the inhumane things they do. We need to turn the tables on them and if that means abusing them to our liking, so be it.

Let’s GO Myrtle Beach, SC 🏖️ ☀️☀️

Prius at 0:16 doing the ope let me sneak by you real quick

Someone asked me why I was progressive when I believe in small gov, and lower taxes. I simply said, "Conservatives treat people as property; progressives value people above property, and prefer small (value-adding) gov and lower taxes (to avoid wasteful spending)." Then there was silence.

He can't read, that's the problem. He only sees nonwhite and makes the connection 'illegal.' It's like a brain fart, only overtly smelly...

If the courts can't rein in this madness, I sense a massive civil disobedience campaign against the regime in the near future that would involve ignoring caustic laws, disrupting vital regime infrastructure with general strikes...

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen. Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !” globalnews.ca/news/9793403...

Now why on earth would a man with multiple “ass*ssination attempts” be going to the most chaotic event in our country? He’s not campaigning. He doesn’t need the press. He’s actually already served his purpose to the Musk regime. Why put him in danger? Is he perhaps a liability to Leon now? Fishy.

Surprise, surprise, really, is anyone surprised?

Conservative has two special words embedded in it: 'con' and 'serv[e]'. And boy have they served the con well!

You're handicapping yourselves. If your Mad King won't follow the law, will ignore court orders, then, by all means, burn the rulebook and be the Jaime Lannister we can all forgive. Maybe the FBI can raid the Treasury and arrest (or kill) Elon Musk. Just brainstorming out loud.

yes, yes, yes

Starter app on @glitch.com that you can fork, start hacking on, and just run. Great way to experiment!

Rumor has it there are talks within capitals around the world to depose Trump from power to keep him from destabilizing the world. #fingerscrossed

On the flip side, if they are easily intimidated, even we have a playbook to work with now.

We are! But now the joke is on you -- in the Oval Office! Even we can't best the funny shit he does to himself

A private citizen, with the backing of the President, illegally shut down a major government agency over the weekend and it is not on the front page of this morning's New York Times @peterbakernyt.bsky.social

Get them out of government. Most not old enough to be elected to anything. One suspects they are part of Musk’s gaming posse.

Touché (and couldn't agree more) #liberalinagreement

look idk what you’re so mad about i put the poop IN A BAG before i set it on fire

No DEI! 🙃😆

MORE OF THIS FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

no funding if it seems like the research MIGHT involve a woman or a nonwhite person

I propose putting Trump on one of those 72h involuntary holds for a psych eval- he's a danger to others and to himself, and needs proper treatment. Don't let him out after? #JustAThought

The Mad King is employing military tactics to demoralize oppo before their fight yields results against him. Litigation, pressure campaigns take time and he's done too much barely out of the gate. Talk about hitting the ground running...because they had a roadmap and a playbook #Project2025

I don't buy for a second that Canada backed down; it's more likely that Trump saw the stock market tank and capitulated while spinning it into a U.S. victory, and Canada just reiterated it would implement what it already did a year ago - same for Mexico - to play to Trump's fragile ego.

I've had an epiphany: the Left needs to raise, arm, and train their own armies (paramilitaries) because (a) the Right has them; (b) I can't shake the 'stand back and stand by' comment and their willingness to execute; and (c) we need an effective self-defence capability if gov goes kaput #2centsCAD

I propose the following: let's execute billionaires because the idea that they should have to pay their fair share in taxes to make society equitable again is so radical and unfathomable. (Bet it makes you (gov) feel better about taxing them, doesn't it?)

I'm not donating to your political party if all you're going to do is post. I can do that for free. I will donate if you have a project to resurrect FDR and give him a gun

I'll be blunt: like the far-right, the far-left is also an authoritarian movement. Just because we are more aligned w/ its policies doesn't mean it is not. We need to figure out a way to moderate our voices without undermining our values. We can't win elections otherwise

new iOS got one thing right at least

Adorable

Uh huh. And that dimwitted shitheel is about to make life more expensive for everyone, including Americans.

Watching this on repeat how is your day going?

This is a hostile takeover of the federal government by a private citizen of unlimited means with no restrictions and no transparency. Welcome to the Deep State www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

What? I had a dream that as he was doing that, he got hit by a speeding semi.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

yyyyyeah maybe we shouldn’t just “relax”

I love @theonion.com
