Whenever I think it’s not possible for a brain to be more Internet-addled, this guy pops up to remind me he exists

They’re all just looting the treasury now

I need a spinoff about Chester Arthur with Offerman reprising his role because holy shit what a revelation of a character

8 years of "What is a woman?" and now it turns out that the comeback was "define a child"

“Madison, beer” are the only two words I utter as I come out of an alcohol-induced coma following a road trip to watch the Buckeyes play the Badgers.

And this is the stuff they *chose* to release. Can’t begin to imagine what’s in the rest.

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

These people are genuinely depraved and should have no place in decent society, let alone its governance.

The soft pedaling language being used to describe the men in the Epstein files is enraging.

They didn’t “have sex with underage girls”.

They raped them.

Sex implies consent.

The survivors deserve better than this. Use the correct language. Say what these men did.

Bone-chilling

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

Hard to believe from the same people who support dehumanization in order to engage in ethnic cleansing and excuse the mass murder of children in the name of defending an individual’s legal protection to own an arsenal. Who’d have thought?

Don't Buy Starbucks! At any location, today and beyond, while workers are on ULP strike!

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

UPDATE — With Rep. Pramila Jayapal (Chair Emerita of the Congressional Progressive Caucus), there are now at least 12 congressional Democrats, 15 Democratic-aligned organizations, and 8 Democratic candidates calling for Chuck Schumer to resign as leader:

Join DSA. Become a member today. Democratic socialists have an historic opportunity and responsibility to play a central role in continuing the political revolution for the long term. As a democratic, grassroots organization, DSA is ...

Join a Socialist organization that actually opposes Trump and the Pedophile Government *and* all of the stuff that led to it

feels relevant today

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

The doddering old fool would drive us all off a cliff and tell us the rapidly approaching impact on the ground was just an optical illusion.

First time I took a 10 mg gummy from one of the new recreational shops I put on ‘Prince Of Egypt’ thinking I was in for a good time, only to discover half an hour later that I had, in fact, been transported directly into the film. Hadn’t prepared for that.

The “people of their time” argument has always been the bullshit crutch of reactionary apologists.

Benjamin Lay was out there THROWING FAKE BLOOD on Quakers in the damn EARLY 1700s because HE KNEW that enslaving Africans was a SIN, INHUMANE and should end IMMEDIATELY.

How about a system where your housing is guaranteed, but that guarantee rests on a lifetime debt of service you owe your landlord—typically in the form of labor but can also include military service when demanded.

Yeah that was ugly and painful to watch

Nice.

Watching JCO go thermonuclear on Elon has been a real treat. Needs to be studied.

Support Rockstar Workers Fighting Unfair Dismissals! Last week over 30 members of staff at Grand Theft Auto VI developer Rockstar were fired en masse in a “calculated attack on workers”. The IWGB described Rockstar’s actions as ‘the most blatant and rut...
