Hey NYTimes — *now* you’re lighting the beacons? NOW?!? After months of “Sauron: Avatar Of Evil… Or Extreme Uniter?” thumbsucker reporting you’re screaming what we’ve known since 2015? Fuck all the way off.

One way to reduce drug spend is to have the FDA do an analysis of how long medicine retains it's potency. It can do it one drug at a time. No one should throw away medicine they shouldn't have to. Whether pharmacy or patient. www.propublica.org/article/the-...

We are about to enter an era of extreme and dangerous culture war in the United States. How do we protect our communities and work toward a cultural ceasefire? In this piece I wrote a couple months ago, I offer one possible path. wapo.st/40q1BDn

What republicans want to do here is really really bad and undemocratic www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

America voted for its own self destruction. Trump and GOP don't believe in climate change. They're going to go after the EPA, scientists, FEMA, and any regulations that can save Americans. Instead, they blame people of color and DEI. It will impact all of us, everyone. Alas.

Sometimes The Onion fires one those stories that could be equally as true as satire.

I cannot tell you how tired I am of this bullshit. Republicans nominated and voted for Trump in 2016, 2020, and 2024. Republican politicians endorsed him and refused to impeach him twice. Nearly every Democrat fought him every step of the way to protect democracy. Stop gaslighting us!

Who else is really looking forward to not watching the Inauguration? 👀 👎

I love with the ACA has done for people with pre-existing conditions. But. Let's face reality, ACA 2013 was a different world. Since then Insurance Companies have learned how to game the system. For the subsidized silver/94 and /87 plans, around ~15 % of taxpayer $ stays with ins comps!

States shouldn't have to earn the right to federal aid. But in any case, California, which subsidizes the rest of the country, definitely has open.substack.com/pub/paulkrug...

WATCH: “Metropolitan water systems are not designed to sustain a firefight like this.”

ICE is planning immigration raids starting Tuesday. Please amplify.

We had to get in on the video action too — Bluesky now has custom feeds for video! Like any other feed, you can choose to pin these or not. Bluesky is yours to customize.

Today, honor a King, not a Felon. #mlkday2025

Trump just rescinded an Executive Order issued by President Biden to lower prescription drug costs for people in Medicare and Medicaid.

Mark my words: They will be CONSTANTLY shitting all over the military for the next four years straight. I'm fucked right now. To all those who decided not to vote: Fuck you. Every goddamn one of you. 🖕🤡🖕

I don't think it was pain that made him so great, I think painting brought him whatever happiness he had. * RIP David Lynch

I'm sure the Twitter Files guys are already up in arms over this infringement on free speech. Right? .... Right?

Please share for those who are impacted by the fires in Los Angeles who have animals🙏

Dear god, this presser is batshit even for Trump. He’s bitching about water pressure. He’s talking about electric heaters making people itch. He says he’s going to try to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. He says windmills drive whales crazy.

In a normal world, SCOTUS would refuse to even hear this case. In whatever-the-fuck bizzaro hellscape we’re in now? Who knows?

Jimmy Carter’s casket arrived earlier at the Capitol rotunda, where he will lie in state until Thursday. What a beautiful photo. Rest in peace, President Carter.

Canada has a little message for you, Donnie 👇🏼

Canadian metaphors for living next to the US Pierre Trudeau, 1969: “sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered…one is affected by every twitch and grunt” Charles Angus, 2024: “living in an apartment above a meth lab”
