"One should not give a poisoner medicine,
A conjurer fine apparatus, nor
A rifle to a melancholic bore."
WH Auden

Not to mention the biggest arsenal in the world to a narcissistic attention-seeker.

I like Talarico a lot.
But I wanted Jasmine to win.
Hope she didn’t get voter-suppressed out of a chance.

Jasmine Crockett and James Talarico were BOTH incredible candidates yesterday. They are BOTH great candidates tomorrow. Lot of understandable emotions tonight.

When Bluesky was down today I went back to Twitter and was punched in the face by the stench of abandoned aquarium. Milo Yiannopoulos, who I honestly thought was dead, stanning Hillary Clinton. Dem flaks earnestly retweeting Nick Fuentes. It’s time to cordon off anyone left and introduce alligators.

We’re waiting, US Media.

And there it is …

American soldiers are being killed because the president doesn’t want you to know that he raped little children for decades. And if I’m wrong, sue me, asshole.

Check out the number of votes.

Primary ‘em all!
North Carolina longs to be Blue!

What's shameful is: Speaker Johnson is not loyal to the constitution of the United States. He should be investigated for falsely swearing his oath of office

I wouldn’t want to live under the repressive CCP.
But China has 1.4B people & can make this happen.
The “But America is too big!” excuse for universal healthcare is bunk.
More accurate? “The 0.1% of Americans are too greedy” for universal healthcare.
So the other 339,000 or so of us must suffer.

Watch this.

19 minutes and $12 to get meds at a public Chinese hospital. Without insurance.

As we slash Medicaid to start unnecessary wars and cut taxes for the rich. 🇺🇸

We should all be so much angrier than we are. It doesn’t have to be this way. #MedicareForAllNOW

BREAKING: Cornyn and Paxton have been forced into a runoff. Hahaha

💯

We can’t clean up Washington without restoring integrity to the Supreme Court.

That’s why I believe we should expand the Supreme Court to 13 justices. And then, institute term limits.

Because an appointment to the Supreme Court shouldn’t mean a lifetime lack of accountability.

On February 22, 2026, Naval Ravikant tweeted: "If you're unwilling to defend your country in time of war, then you're a tourist, not a citizen." As of March 3, 2026, the tweet has been deleted.

deleted his tweet as soon as an actual war popped off

BOTH Democratic U.S. Senate candidates should be furious about how this is being handled in Texas.

It benefits one candidate today. But the same chaos that helped them in the primary can absolutely burn them the general.

Looks like your kitty Kat is watching over him.
Poor creature.

One of our goats had twins today. This isn't a good thing- livestock twins often have complications and the rate of death and illness are high.

This little guy's sister is thriving. But he still hasn't walked and his mom wasn't keeping him warm. We're bottle feeding and doing what we can.

Minnesota is mourning the loss of Sergeant First Class Nicole M. Amor of White Bear Lake who was killed in Kuwait on Sunday.

She answered the call to serve and gave her life in service to our state and nation. Minnesotans are wrapping our arms around her loved ones.

IRGC Destroys Second US THAAD System in Gulf, Wipes Out UAE Radar and $1.1 Billion Qatar Early Warning Shield — Iran Declares Missile Dominance - Defence Security Asia IRGC precision strikes reportedly destroy a second US THAAD system, its UAE radar, and Qatar’s $1.1 billion early warning system, exposing fractures in America’s Gulf missile defence architecture and ...

so Iran has apparently knocked out and destroyed / disabled to some extent two U.S. THAAD batteries

This is a massive deal. Aside from the expense, this is not a weapon system we just have a ton of lying around. You don't replace these easily.

kind of crazy that if you have enough money and don't like what you see in the media, you can just buy up every film studio, news station, and social media app and change it

The moon going from full moon to a red moon and starting to go back to a normal full moon, then my camera battery door fell off.

Here's my first edit on the March 3rd Lunar Eclipse. 15 moon shots, 1 foreground. Taken over a 3 hourish period.

WTF? 💯

They cut Meals on Wheels for seniors, doctors for the VA, and food for American children - but send billions of taxpayer dollars to the Middle East for an unnecessary war of choice.

“We will be greeted as liberators”

We’ve seen this movie before.

BREAKING: The Texas Secretary of State DID NOT UPDATE the precinct maps on their website last December. MY GOD @msnowreports.bsky.social

Can we get that money back?
It would be useful for stuff like, I don’t know, disaster relief?
Healthcare?
Infrastructure?
