I know you need a classic meme, friend. ❤️

Yes, this will surely make for change.

"He keeps showing up." theonion.com/trump-u...

Trump is apparently powerless to stop Musk from taking his limelight and his authority. Trump is basically under conservatorship with that one weird cousin in charge.

Stringfellow is the political theologian most needed in the US at this time.

Sure feels like a plague!

We continue to live in the stupidest timeline filled with the stupidest people.

An underrated but alarming thing is that between the 2-week informal tripartite presidency of Jan 2021 and this 10 day stretch of random dudes calling themselves “DOGE” running the government, this country is getting both familiar with and nonchalant about extra-constitutional government.

My momma told me to work for justice for all, and my daddy told me to love my neighbor. Radicalized from the very beginning!

The US is an expert in genocide and expelling people from their land, after all!

#OtD 3 Feb 1909 Simone Weil, French philosopher, mystic, and activist, was born. She fought against the fascists in the Spanish civil war and again in the French resistance. She died in the UK in 1943, after refusing to eat more than French rations stories.workingclasshistory.c...

hey quick question does Goliath win in that story

Watching Idaho's crappiest senator, Mike Crap-o, sing the praises of RFK Jr reminds me that Idaho elects only the most spineless and craven politicians now. It's all been downhill since Frank Church, of blessed memory.

DON'T BE TRASH 🦝

Acts 12:21-23 is on my mind lately.

Remember a few years ago the "Orange Fool" controversy, where a dessert from the late 1700s called an orange fool enraged right wingers because OBVIOUSLY it was directed at Trump? Thinking about that as right wingers fall over themselves to say that Musk's nazi salute *wasn't* a nazi salute.

As we begin an even stupider and more malicious chapter of American oligarchy, I wonder what Republicans will be rehabilitated by the Dems in 4 years when they inevitably fall afoul of Trump and First Lady Musk. Hegseth? Bannon? What terrible Republican *won't* they include to show bipartisanship?

Wait, I thought TikTok was evil and a threat to national security. And yet they appear to be coordinating with Donald Trump to make him look good. Surely, this means he is also evil and a national security threat.

Opposing the majority party is being the opposition party; signing on to what the majority party does makes you the junior partner in a governing coalition. When they succeed you get zero credit and when they fail you share blame. This isn’t hard, nor is it new ground.

I strongly encourage everyone to sing along to your music as you drive. And substitute the final word of each line with something that rhymes. That's it. It's hilarious every single lime.
