Has his administration done even one fucking thing to help the American people so far? Because all I've seen are attacks, removals of protections, and war mongering. #fucktrump

True.

the first good post i think i've ever seen from a democratic committee account

Waving foreign flags and shutting down the freeway — never skip the “will this make us look worse” zoom before the protest

You don’t even have to fool him. Trump’s entire fucking shtick is make a giant stink, get the status quo and claim victory. He’s done this many times!

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — As New Orleans church leaders braced for the fallout from publishing a list of predatory Catholic priests, they turned to an unlikely ally: the front office of the city’s NFL franchise.

It’s pretty amazing that these guys are going with “Covid, which wasn’t a big deal, is the worlds greatest bio weapon, that we shouldn’t have cancelled school for a semester for, but also China did almost destroy the world, but don’t forget it’s also just the flu”

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices. We hammered this time and time again and yet.

Rand Paul beginning to realize that the rest of his conference stands for nothing other than blind loyalty to the Godking.

Maybe it's better not to mess around with certain federal functions. It's not a game.

OpenAI right now

Yeah, how about not dissolving the air safety advisory commission at the FAA. As your team did last week.

Was literally talking to the union representing federal air traffic controllers earlier today about how there’s already a major shortage of air traffic controllers and the resignation offers they all just got from OPM could seriously endanger public safety.

Why is the president tweeting like he hasn’t been briefed on the crash at 11:19pm? Why isn’t he on TV?

I don't mean to brag, but I've been invited to apply for the Venmo Credit Card many many many times over.

Breaking character: If Democrats are too dumb to pounce on stuff like this, then the party really is broken. ktxs.com/news/local/p...

The January 6 pardons are turning out great.

because they have trained themselves to think of politics as a social game in which they are participants, and not as something that determines whether people live or die

The remote work debate was funny because it forced the question "Is a job something valuable you do or is it a place you go to be watched like daycare" and the answer for a lot of them was yeah it's the daycare thing now come on inside recess is over

Just reposted a number of replies that answer this directly! DeepSeek model is way way more efficient so way less compute needed, implying far less demand for chips down the line. (Also why MSFT CEO is posting about Jevon’s paradox)

Imagine a world where you never learned or tried anything new, you just kept pushing the button for another pellet like a rat.

Trump is calling for ethnic cleansing—“clean out that whole thing” was his phrase!—but the NYT manages to make him sound like a humanitarian.

I want to remind everyone that your local library is both physical AND digital. You hate streaming everything because the price is ridiculous? Library. You hate ads because they're every 3 mins or less? Library. You want to reduce your digital footprint? Library. You want sourced info? Library.

That guy who's been boosting Nazis and spreading Nazi propaganda for years? He was doing one of those "My Heart Goes Out To You" salutes.

A sad and disturbing reality that the incoming president quickly chose to lie to the American public about the New Orleans attacker, who we now know was an American-born citizen and military veteran 👉🏻 www.nytimes.com/2025/01/01/u...

Dude the platform is literally this

Today is Eddie Vedder's 60th birthday, and I'm here to get on my hobbyhorse to say that any generational definition that classifies him as a Boomer is fundamentally flawed. My (elegant, useful) proposal: 1940-1959 Boomers 1960-1979 Gen X 1980-1999 Millennials 2000-2019 Zoomers

men will literally kill a healthcare ceo instead of going to therapy that they can't afford because it was out of network wait how does this meme go again?

Wow, the thing people were screaming would happen happened. www.ajmc.com/view/infant-...

Same company: www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021...

🧵ICYMI, a very important case study precursor of what's in store for us re the MAGA attempts to destroy civil society wherever resistance appears. Parallels to Rwanda might seem extreme, but same sort of dynamic involved.

Googling "why has Elon Musk's net worth doubled since the election?"

NEW: After reviewing leaked documents, we have found UnitedHealth is strategically limiting access to a treatment for thousands of children with autism across the country in order to cut costs. Advocates say the company’s strategy may be illegal. www.propublica.org/article/unit... 👇

This would be a very good thing to ask a Secretary of Defense nominee about

The glorification of people like Daniel Penny and Kyle Rittenhouse sends a clear message: The use of violence against anything and anyone associated with “the Left” is not only justified - it is an urgently necessary “patriotic” act. It functions as a key part of the Right’s political project.

1st #BlueSky post - hoping to follow my pup’s lead and do a better job of living in the moment after a difficult week.

If you want to understand the far right, violent extremists, White Supremacists, and Christian nationalists, these are the journalists, researchers, academics and other experts that monitor, research and provide analysis on all the flavors of the rising fascist authoritarian movement.
