Nonsense. Cat photos are a good thing. Think of all the presidents who’ve shared pics of family pets with the world. And the one who very noticeably has not.

“This is not about drugs, it’s not about Venezuela, it’s not about anything else but this new assertion by the president that the U.S. military will kill anyone he points at, for any reason he deems sufficient.”

Very true and very scary comment by Tom Nichols.

I’ll take shrill and self-important over some of the deeply sexist and threatening MAGAs I’ve encountered.

Protest organizers are also recommending that you don't lean into antifa.

I’m convinced Trump’s base comprises everyone who believed (or would have believed) everything they read in the National Enquirer.

And for some, I’d include believing the Weekly World News as well.

"There's truth underneath all this fake outrage. Conservatives really are at a disadvantage in pop culture because most creative people are liberals, which has always been true & probably always will be. While MAGA has had some success building a culture machine, what it produces is mostly banal."

Whiny MAGA freaks out over Super Bowl halftime show

Songs in Spanish? In America?

In 2008, people in my workplace at the time wanted to get me in trouble for something tweeted by someone I followed (my understanding was the company lawyers told them they were out of their minds). Haven’t used my real name since.

I tolerate drama only from my cats (who, of course, give me no choice in the matter).

Next comes the classic dismissal of one’s feelings and experiences: “If you don’t like it, maybe you should move to X and see if you like it there.”

Right? Made me think of the “try” tool, where the abuser claims something normal someone said was actually an attack, and the person tries to explain it wasn’t an attack.
As in:
“I was just trying to be nice-“
(Cuts her off) “Oh, you TRIED. You have to TRY to be nice. You can’t just BE nice.”

I think it was worse than that. I’ve heard over and over that Trump is our punishment for what the Dems fid to Gaza.

Oregonians in red, rural areas love to push the “Portland is a drug-infested shithole” narrative - even when their counties have some of the highest rates of poverty and drug use in the state.
