Leaders of the Democratic Party rarely talk about how corrupt the media is. That needs to change (mostly by changing who the leaders of the party are).

"Then it was no longer business as usual. Then it was no longer a routine day," the prosecutor says.

NEW: Wisconsin could become the next major front in redistricting. With a challenge to the GOP-leaning congressional map looming and April’s state Supreme Court election outcome coming into play, a redrawing of the state’s districts may not be far off.

I honestly think that many people don't know what their public libraries offer besides books. I think that everyone should go on a public library treasure hunt in 2026. Go explore what your library systems offer at no cost to you. Report back to me :)

1/ It was the height of the pandemic, but Phoebe Putney Memorial had good news: At 99 years old, Maude Burke was the oldest COVID-19 patient they were discharging.
In a video, staff waved balloons, celebrating Burke beating the disease.

LEAVE Twitter already, folks. Get the fuck off there.
The only surefire way to stop oligarchs buying up the things we love is to drop those things the moment oligarchs buy them & that requires changing habits and massive self-discipline.
It means going to alternatives that might not be quite as good or convenient.
It’s really hard. But there it is.
