If your Tesla looks like this, that bumper sticker isn't gonna fool anyone #TeslaTakedown

His poll numbers are TANKING.

Don't be gaslit: They are Nazis. This is a Nazi salute. They are not hiding it, or dog whistling, they are announcing it. They have come out as Nazis. Show the people in your life these images all together. Make them understand this is not an accident, or a fluke. It is happening here.

(AP) — Elon Musk’s cost-cutting team is eliminating jobs at the vehicle safety agency that oversees Tesla and has launched investigations into deadly crashes involving his company’s cars. #OligarchEra 🇺🇸 apnews.com/article/musk...

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

The House could vote next week on drastic cuts to Medicaid that would gut critical programs that protect the civil rights and dignity of millions of Americans — including people with disabilities. Contact your member of Congress: No cuts to Medicaid.

I'm proud of my state. Olympia has declared themselves a sanctuary city for LGBTQIA+ people.

I spoke with trans and genderqueer developers about working in games in the US amid an anti-trans administration and harassment from online communities. Many feel left behind by the companies they work for. “Can’t piss off the bigots, because they spend money.” www.wired.com/story/game-d...

It’s time to give Wolfenstein: Youngblood another chance — it’s free, after all

Trump before the election: “When I win, I will immediately bring prices down starting on day one.” Trump tonight: “Inflation is back.”

In their latest attempt to rewrite our history, the Trump administration removed references to trans & queer people from the Stonewall National Monument webpage. No one — ESPECIALLY Donald Trump — can erase us from society. Demand the National Park Service restore our history: hrc.im/stonewall

Kash Patel wants to "come after" the press. The Senate shouldn’t give him the keys to the FBI to do it.

The tariff madness begins... This is gonna suck massively.

This explains so much. Added some alt text.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum threatened Thursday to sue Google after it changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico in its maps, in compliance with Donald Trump’s superficial executive order.

Plus critical thinking.

A fun thing to do with this supposed Napoleon quote is to do a google search to see what forums it appeared on with this exact wording before 2022. I'm no computer whiz, so maybe I messed up, but the only hits I got were these two...for Stormfront, a neo-Nazi forum.

I actually think it’s pretty clear.

BREAKING: Trump is losing support: Less than one month into the chaotic return of Trump, and these Trump-voting farmers have already had enough. If the election were held today, they would not vote for him. Make sure everyone sees this!

A fine point.

In Chinese #mythology, the Azure Dragon isn't just blue - it defies everything you thought you knew about Chinese dragons. While Western dragons hoard gold underground, this celestial beast commands the entire eastern sky, rules spring's awakening, and unlike its wingless Chinese cousins, 1/2

Imagine a mythical bird that is always on fire, never burning out. That's the Vermilion Bird, one of the Four Symbols in ancient Chinese #mythology. It symbolizes fire, the summer season, and the southern direction—elements that are now being rediscovered in contemporary art and storytelling. 1/2

Ancient Chinese texts like '晉中興徵祥說' reveal how the White Tiger breaks every modern stereotype: it's not fierce, but benevolent; not a warrior, but a judge of moral character. This celestial beast, representing the west and autumn, offers surprising insights into how ancient Chinese 1/2 #mythology

🚨 HAPPENING NOW: Outside the CFPB building. Senator Elizabeth Warren on fire: "THIS IS YOUR FIGHT."

Kendrick Lamar showed more courage in the face of rising American tyranny than we’ve seen from ANY former American leader. If you swore an oath to protect this nation, where are you now? youtube.com/shorts/keNw6...

❗ICYMI❗'DOGE' agents—handpicked Trump loyalists—are snooping through sensitive government records with no safeguards. The Privacy Act of 1974 was designed to prevent exactly this kind of abuse. We’re taking them to court. Read more 🔗 https://protdem.org/4aYTWRp

Think ancient Chinese #philosophy is just about Confucius and Dao? The turbulent era of 770-221 BC actually gave birth to more than eight distinct schools of thought, each offering unique perspectives on power, society and human nature! Check them out below! 👇 Which one is your favorite? #history

Vance is openly calling for the end of the constitutional order here, which is a betrayal of his oath of office. It is as plain as day now, Loper Bright ain’t gonna save you

At this point, anyone buying a Tesla or still posting on Twitter is enabling a fascist in Elon Musk. Collector of retro tech, Lord Arse, is no longer posting there, weakening the platform. @lordarse.com 👏👏👏 112.8K followers on Twitter, 5.1K followers here, give him a boost!

EFF to Ninth Circuit: Protect young people’s First Amendment right to use social media (and its algorithms):

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Musk has given DOGE engineers barely old enough to buy beer—and with ZERO government experience—free rein over the Treasury Dept. Now they want to access data in the Dept of Labor, National Institutes of Health, and even the FAA. SIGN HERE to tell Congress to kick these bozos out of government!👇

The Trump administration and his billionaire cronies are fighting to end our right to protest under the cover of darkness. But we’re standing up. Will you join us? 🧵
