this is a great piece, thank you for making it available and GOOD FOR YOU
We have got to do something to turn the narrative around.

Red states use Obamacare. Red states use SNAP. Red states use Planned Parenthood.

This "Red" vs. "Blue" b.s. is trying to distract us from the fact that greedy mofos are taking over.

United we stand, divided we fall.
To my dying day, I will never understand why this was not the END of him.

Dems, I bet of you, STOP VOTING FOR TRUMP JUDGES JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
By a vote of 66-32, the #Senate invoked cloture on the nomination of Harold D. Mooty III to be US District Judge for the Northern District of Alabama.
i would also need the six foot arms that go along with it lol
This was the message of Faiz Shakir, who ran for Dem National Party Chairman in 2024. He lost to Ken Martin, whose ONLY message was, “beat Drumpf.” Shakir had MUCH better ideas, but lost. So here we are with Dem party having NO ideas, NO vision, just same ol’ business as usual (Arggggh)
Fifi! I’m on board with all those things, and I saw a tone of signs for that yesterday at the #nokings! But I am responding to the OPs post that we need to object to the system as a whole. I agree, so I’m asking, what does a demand for system reform look like? How do we ask for/demand that?
im ready! What would we ask for?
I admit that your 1st take on the #nokings activities shocked me. “How come she is against these well-meaning protests?” But I am coming around to see your pov. You are on to something TRUE. So now you’ve got my attention!! How would you define a demand that could = real system change?
This is brilliant poetry, and absolutely encapsulates the way that tech, once so promising, has been turned into monetized junk.
I would laugh if this wasn't so true 😭
I hate Johnson as much as the next guy, but this is weird math.

1. Johnson is talking total # of immigrants (1.4 mil)
2. Psaki is talking PERCENTAGE of total users (.4 %)

They are comparing apples and oranges.

Also, the article's headline says "State," not "U.S."??

Critical thinking....
It may be that the ethos of the Repub Party (freedom = get out of my way, and regulation = hardship) is incompatible with the idea of political SERVICE, which is doing what is best for others (those who elected you). The lust for power is shared by Rs and Ds, but the idea of service is different.
Throw in a ban on leaf blowers and you’ve got my vote
Interesting: this scenario is what Repubs would do, if they were Dems, and suddenly were in power.

In fact, when Dems have been in power, they have not pushed for anything. That’s 1 reason they lost.

Bottom line: Dems need to behave more like Repubs if given the chance. Push that agenda thru.
Megan Greenwell, "The Adults in the Room":

"...capricious billionaires ... believe that they are rich because they are smart and that they are smart because they are rich, and that anyone less rich is by definition less smart. They know what they know, and they don’t need to know anything else."
thank you for your expertise!
Thank you for these beautiful recipes and history!!! I want to make the apple cake and haven’t got access to Rubinette apples, any other kind you would recommend? How tart is too tart?
I feel like this is related to the decline in attention spans…if humans swipe away when uninterested after 7 seconds, this may be a way to both satisfy the urge to swipe (ie, turn the page) and a way to say “hey, wait, you can make it through this chapter, it’s short!”
anyone who is a true artist feels this way about AI
