Elon does all 5!

Family includes everyone! ❤️

Time to stop pretending what's happening isn't real.

Trump wants you to forget that he gutted the Aviation Safety Committee and ousted the FAA administrator during his first week in office. Don’t forget.

NATIONAL ARCHIVES UNDER ASSAULT: They’re coming for our history. The US archivist & staff resigned after Trump officials pushed to replace them w/loyalists. Not just records you’d expect—slave records, immigration records, Native American treaties—all at risk. Will they rewrite or destroy history?

Americans have the right to vote and have a say who our elected leaders are. But MAGA Rs want to pass The SAVE Act which would make it harder for millions of Americans to cast a ballot, including women who changed their name after marriage. Call your MOC and tell them to vote No!

Good Morning SKIES OF BLUE Presidents Day ....NOT I call it NATIONAL DAY OF PROTEST NO ONE ELECTED MUSK nor his minion tRump Listed below whether I liked them or not, THEY all supported and defended the Constitution against all ENEMIES FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC PROTEST PUBLIC OUTCRY

I did notice this.. not a word.

First time I’m actually wishing there really was a deep state.

You might think Musk & his coup cronies are saying, "Now if only we knew who voted for Harris and who is a MAGA lifer -- then we could target our surveillance and stop payments to our enemies!" Guess what -- they can get close enough using data you give away on social media & credit card shopping.

I want to think this is an exaggeration, but, tiny frog I am, the water does seem to be getting warmer.... www.theissue.io/prepare-for-...

We think about this every day

Orange Julius Caeser is actively working to break the federal bureaucracy. Whaddya wanna bet the IRS won't be processing returns this year? Nice, no audits! No penalties! No rebates, either. Lots of lower-income folks depend on the little bit extra every year to get by. #fafo

This is a good time to bring up RFK Jr's role in a major measles outbreak in Samoa in 2019. Over 𝟴𝟬 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 died. 𝙈𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙢 𝙬𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙡𝙙𝙧𝙚𝙣. RFK Jr has blood on his hands. He's not fit to have any say about vaccines. youtu.be/l0f3yZ9jJPY?...

The elderly can be slow to adopt new technologies...

The Gulf of America is a beautiful name for the wealth gap

Jesse Eisenberg playing both Mark Zuckerberg AND Lex Luthor suddenly makes a lot more sense.

I frickin' love SciShow, and hope they keep making bite-size knowledge injections forever!

Excuse-makers are saying this was an accident. If that's true (which I don't believe) it would signal that he has muscle memory for that gesture -- as in, he uses it so frequently his arm "just does it" without him thinking.

Not everyone can fight Trumpism and Trumpists directly. But remember this: kindness, decency, and fidelity to American values are defiance in the face of Trumpism. So be kind, decent, and faithful, particularly to the many kinds of people despised and attacked by Trumpists. That’s revolutionary./1

It looks like Republicans think that unless you’re a billionaire, you don’t deserve a damn thing in terms of help or support.

the realest lyric ever sung is in "Easy" when Lionel Richie says "I'm not happy when I try to fake it" and if it hits you on the right day it does about ten years of therapy's work in 1.5 bars of mid tempo 70s rock

Ten things I do every day that Trump has never done, and will never do: Read a book to my child Pet my dogs Cook for my family Take out the garbage Pay my bills Empathize with strangers Learn something new Exercise Admit when I'm wrong Hear "I love you" from someone who means it

That owl has issues

President Biden should order the National Archivist to publish and certify the Equal Rights Amendment. I doubt it'll hold up in the courts, and I don't care. Make it a problem for the GOP. Force them to explain why women aren't equal in our Constitution. What is there to lose?

Russian presidential aircraft and funds were used in a program that took children from occupied Ukrainian territories, stripped them of Ukrainian identity and placed them with Russian families, according to a report by Yale's School of Public Health reut.rs/3CR1mcs 1/6

Amari with the hot potato pass to Josh for the TD!

Across the country, people are starting meal preparations and traveling to be with friends and family. Tell us your favorite dish on the Thanksgiving table, and we’ll share our knowledge about the work behind the ingredients. #WeFeedYou

The Charles Kushner appointment to be ambassador to France is a Trump trifecta: nepotism, criminality, and incompetence. Profoundly offensive and a setback for US standing in the world.

If you're wondering whether housing has become too expensive, consider that in 1922 a tomato variety was introduced called "Mortgage Lifter", so named due its high production and culinary appeal -- a grower could allegedly pay off their mortgage growing this one crop.

As I have somehow surpassed 7k followers on here I thought it might be nice to do a giveaway: All 7 of my books to one lovely winner. Just share and like to be in with a chance! 😁📚

1. The difference so far (and for god's sake let's keep it that way) between X and Bluesky is not between right and left but between abuse and respect. A good society is built on mutual respect. But what does this mean? A short thread.🧵
