Nobody who has lived with a narcissist is surprised
The entire world is perplexed because the President of the United States appeared cordial in one meeting.
That’s how crazy this timeline is.

I think Americans are realizing that democracy is a participation sport, and the the government is ours if we want it to be. I feel like we got complacent and hoped some other third party would do the work for us. Seems like we have to learn that lesson every generation.

This is the energy we need: a 14yo taking to social media to explain to Megyn Kelly what a 14/15 yo is—a child.
The GOP has no shame in large part because Dems don’t shame them. And the media is too scared to.
Bring back shame. And consequences.

I stand with unionized Starbucks workers, who are on strike across the country right now for better wages and working conditions.
Until Starbucks strikes a fair bargain with its workers and ceases its union-busting behavior, I'll continue to boycott the company.

My political hot take is that US voters should be able to recall elected representatives via petition - at any time.

Starving people is a weapon of control. So, too, is controlling and attacking the media, attacking science and higher ed, and using the military against citizens and innocent people. All weapons of control.

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s a talented politician but not otherworldly or one in a billion, he’s just a competent guy with popular ideas who ran against an entitled piece of shit and to me it’s a lot more optimistic to imagine 1000 campaigns like his than to view him as a unique phenomenon

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.
