Even Ramaswamy getting queasy with the right-wing obsession with “heritage.”

Anyway. This might be you. Or your mom. Or your kid. Or your grandpa. Because mobility comes and goes, because our bodies are adventures that keep moving forward.

Imagine a world that is beyond your experience, just once in a while. It's pretty great out here. When you aren't carding cripples.

How that didn't end his campaign then and there is an indicator that the problem isn't (just) Trump.
I mean some of us remember when he made fun of the disabled reporter in 2015. Whenever he *doesn’t* do something that would get anybody else cast out of public life forever I’m convinced it’s AI or a really good impersonator in Hollywood special effects makeup.

MAGA wants to remove studies of colonialism from universities because it might complicate the Trump line that Venezuela is a colonial power that subjugated the United States, stealing our Oil, Land, and Other Assets.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

Back in the days when I was still going to church, the pastor who eventually persuaded me to stop going to church had a phrase that he liked to say a whole lot, and for all I know he still likes to say it.

The phrase was "we're creating victims and villains."

Recognizing victims and villains is not creating victims and villains. A series on living in a culture of repair, against a culture of abuse.

Amazing how many articles are just “I’m a white guy who didn’t get the promotion I wanted and the only answer to this problem that concerns every single one of us is to re-segregate the workplace”

Good morning to Sen Rand Paul
Sometimes you have to look people in the eye and say: I'm not your supporter. At best, we are allies on this specific issue, but I have no problem thwarting any and every attempt you make on these others. You will not change my mind on this, and I care about your success only as much as it helps me.

Trump replacing MLK Day with his birthday for free national parks is such an easy conversational test of White Supremacy because if you seriously argue that Trump deserves to be honored more than MLK, I know for sure that you're a White Supremacist.

Off by default isn’t no ai, though. Next you’ll have to turn it off. Then you’ll have to find a script to disable it because you can’t turn it off but there’s a workaround. Then there will be no workaround. It’s a no from me. this is a test to see what you’ll tolerate.

The Kremlin has welcomed changes in the U.S. National Security Strategy, saying the adjustments that marked a radical departure from Washington's previous policy were "largely consistent" with Moscow's vision.

Since becoming a parent I have not, in fact, understood the parents who say “if you were a parent you’d understand” about vaccine hesitancy. Being in charge of this fragile little miracle has me saying things like “give her all the vaccines. Turn this baby into a pincushion” to doctors

I think a lot of people still aren't used to the idea of a federal government that lies openly, nakedly and as a matter of course.

Rand Paul...

I have to hand it to Rand 🤬 Paul don't I?
Rand Paul just posted this letter from the Coast Guard confirming that 1/4 of the boats they stop carry no contraband. The likelihood that Hegseth & Bradley ordered the murder of innocent civilians is very high.

No way that some of the money doesn't find its way into Trump's pockets. The only question is how much...

50%? 80%? 99.90%?

I don't know who needs to hear this but...you can run the dishwasher even if it's not totally full. I recently gave myself permission to do this and I haven't had dishes pile up in the sink ever since. It's so much easier to unload half a dishwasher every morning 🥲

I mean this sincerely, somebody in Megyn Kelly's family needs to stage an intervention.

She is unwell.
Megyn Kelly on alleged war crimes: "I really do kind of not only wanna see them killed in the water, whether they're on the boat or in the water, but I'd really like to see them suffer. I would like Trump and Hegseth to make it last a long time so they lose a limb and bleed out."
