This whole thread.

“Oh no, someone might eat food!”

Good. That’s good.

“They might buy something they like.”

Cool.

“They might get a treat!”

Also cool.

I am come with broom before to sweep the dust behind the door.

If we shadows have offended
Think but this and all is mended.
That you have but sumber'd here
While these visions did appear
And this weak and idle theme
No more yielding but a dream.

My grandfather who was a WWII vet had breast cancer. So did his younger brother. This is an insane policy decision based on bigotry and ignorance.

Random NC PSA: If your driver's license expires in the next few months & you checked a while back to see if you could renew online & you couldn't, it's worth checking again now. If you got a new picture for your Real ID since your last license renewal, they pass a rule allowing you to renew online.

YouTube video by Reagan Library President Reagan's Radio Address on Free and Fair Trade on April 25, 1987

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

So the one unleashing criminals onto American streets is, in fact, ICE.

I'd heard about this and I had to tell a bunch of folks who I'd recommended it to in the past. I didn't want anyone getting scammed on my recommendation.

do these fellas want to be doing podcasts for the next year where they say “this is totally different” every time they want to call out somebody for celebrating nazi shit? because that sounds exhausting when you can simply say “he seemed cool but then we learned about the nazi thing” and move on

I would laugh if this wasn't so true 😭

This is yet another reminder that the "you can just walk around with your papers and be fine!" is a lie: the cops routinely claim whatever documentation you provide is invalid

It's racism all the way down

Massive peaceful protests are *important* against a violent regime for a large number of reasons: striking fear in their hearts, establishing a habit of courage amongst our citizens, and opening lines of communication.

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

A tweet from the Anonymous account says, “Make sure the dude in the frog costume in Portland knows he's an icon.” The image is a stylized poster of a frog wearing a stars-and-stripes scarf with the word “HOP” below, in the style of the Obama “HOPE” poster.

You gotta give ‘em hop.

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

What a perfect baby!!!

An AI generated image of Andrew Cuomo driving a train.

An AI generated image of Andrew Cuomo working on the outside of a building.

An AI generated image of Andrew Cuomo on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange.

In a city of world-class artists and production crew hunting for the next gig, Andrew Cuomo made a TV ad the same way he wrote his housing policy: with AI.

Then again, maybe a fake Cuomo is better than the real one?

Hats off to Merriam-Webster!

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

I will add that stitch markers that clasp (instead of ones that are a closed circle) are the best and allow for you to remove them at any point in the project without having to knit to where they are.
