The trash talk was warranted last year. He looked like he was phoning it in for a lot of 2024. And for the start of 2025 too tbh. But once the Cope feud ended he suddenly remembered who tf he was and he started cooking again

Everything is about avoiding responsibility, legal liability, and accountability… These people and the companies they work for want to be held to a lesser standard than literal children…

smol bean syndrome writ large with venture capitalist funding…

I find it all so repulsive…

The best part of how Portland is handling this is they’re not only protesting, but also angering the goose steppers by not taking them seriously.

Pretty genius. Because even ICE & the national guard don’t want to be displayed as that asshole fighting people in cute costumes.

Because it feels relevant as we continue to evaluate the media and our representatives’ statements, my favorite way to identify the active vs. passive voice.

A post by Rebecca Johnson:
“I finally learned how to teach my guys to ID the passive voice. If you can insert "by zombies" after the verb, you have passive voice.”

A tumblr respond from mightymur:
“The final, brilliant word on passive voice.
"She was killed [by zombies.]"<--passive
"Zombies killed [by zombies] her." <-- active”

Early voting is underway for Prop 50 in California.

I urge anyone in the state to vote yes.

This isn’t a race to the bottom. It’s a means of avoiding the bottom. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-blue-states-should-do-when-red

The thing that's gonna sink him with normies I think is just how weirdly fixated he is on throwing trans people under the bus to placate the right. Especially while literally everything else is on fire

📌White, toxic masculinity is ruining America, and it’s about time white guys started speaking out about it.

📌This is a piece that has needed writing for years now, but I was finally spurred to action by a run-in with one of these dudes early this morning.

📌Man, I am sick and tired of these guys.

AMERICA'S PLAGUE: WHITE, TOXIC MASCULINITY

Since the rise of Trump, these grotesque, so-called 'men' are proliferating, and only they are better for it ...

As the people who insist otherwise try to burn the country, it's important to affirm that immigrants, from everywhere, are awesome, and America is better the more immigrants we have. You have to be just empty and vapid and unimaginably small to reject that.
