being a leftist & getting scolded by libs for 'infighting' when you criticize the slightly less socially conservative capitalist warmonger party is always a puzzler. where do you even begin explaining things to someone who says that

The Revolution will be AI-icized

It’s obvious, but I’ll say it anyway. The massive purge of government employees—who are loyal to their jobs and their mission and their craft—is to replace them with people who are loyal to DJT only. That’s it. Loyalty and obedience over skill and competence. At our cost. All of us.

"This is something that does not belong to the president or the White House. It belongs to the American people.” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Try explaining to someone who hasn't been keeping up with politics that the apparatus of US government has been taken over by a small band of nazis.

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

Wrote about how easy it is to claim you saved taxpayers billions when you just make shit up. But also how this is the Twitter Files all over again. The dumbest people don't know what they're looking at so it must be a conspiracy www.techdirt.com/2025/02/19/i...

If you’re not confirmed by the Senate then you have no business meddling in the lives of MILLIONS of Americans We are suing DOGE for violating the constitution & illegally seizing power I’ll discuss tonight @ 8PM ET on @insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com 👇 statedemocracydefenders.org/fund/new-law...

Have you heard about the SAVE Act? It's the newest effort at voter suppression by the House GOP & it's important for all of us. If you're a married woman or someone who doesn't have their birth certificate/passport handy, you're especially going to want to see this. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

And on FOX NEWS, no less.

Remember when they mocked us for saying that democracy is on the ballot?

This is probably the most accurate take.

Political journalists need to be prepared to dramatically change their behavior presswatchers.org/2025/02/step...

Luka Dončić instantly won Lakers fans over with his stellar game from a basketball standpoint upon arrival. But to donate $500,000 to LA wildfire relief and to answer questions in Spanish after his first Lakers game will help the NBA star to become beloved by LA at a faster pace.

i don’t even know if crime is the right word for the illegal destruction of USAID. it is an autocratic power grab and a direct attack on the sovereignty of the american people

Is this the most stunning trade in NBA history? I can't think of one that compares but my brain is pudding right now

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

Really cannot urge you enough to call your members of Congress right now. I just talked to my very red state, Trump-supporting senator's office. Much to my surprise, they were very receptive to my feedback and seemed extremely concerned. This feels like a rare opportunity to be heard.

“In order to shoot off one email per week for a year, ChatGPT would use up 27 liters of water, or about one-and-a-half jugs… that means if one in 10 U.S. residents—16 million people—asked ChatGPT to write an email a week, it’d cost more than 435 million liters of water.”

FINALLY OMG

Leaving Twitter is like leaving an abusive relationship.

Under Trump, EPA scientists say managers encouraged them to delete evidence of chemicals’ harms, including cancer, miscarriage and neurological problems, from their reports. And in some cases, they said, their managers deleted the information themselves. By @fastlerner.bsky.social

I feel like a lot of pop psychology and motivational self-speak has made people completely incapable of holding themselves accountable. It’s sad to see and also incredibly frustrating.

i literally never understood the optimism about a team built around paul george and joel embiid, two of the least reliable, most playoff-disappointing stars of the modern era

It’s been an insane year for LA 😭

Kendrick with this album:

Everybody after listening to squabble up and hey now

WAIT KENDRICK DROPPED AN ALBUM?

As much talk about how there are too many threes taken per game in the NBA, I think free throws are the bigger issue. That first quarter took 45 minutes.

Jalen Suggs more like Jalen Sucks am I right???

Do it for him.

Imma need some of you to think about thriving out of spite. I had big plans for 2025 and I’m definitely not gonna pre-derail them for likes of Elin and Tromp. I’m getting more involved. Loving harder. Writing hornier. Having more fun. I’m gonna be so kind to my neighbors, bitch.
