Democrats said states' rights.

Just climbing some light scaffolding to get the best view of the 20-block crowd that showed up in the rain to mock Trump and Elon with sign puns while he golfed and gambled with the economy. #HandsOffOurGovernment

Normally, I don't consider it cultural appropriation if it's coming from white culture, but Elon Musk in a cheesehead hat definitely counts. #wisconsin

Currently thinking about how "would you be up for...?" and would you be down to...?"are the same question. Language is wily, man.

I figured it out. They mixed up the White House with The White Lotus. This is actually all a cautionary plotline about how money destroys people's brains. #WhiteHouse #theWhiteLotus

Mahmoud Khalil has been disappeared for his political speech.

This is fascism.

Damn, Brazil is charging a former totalitarian leader for a coup and won its first Oscar for international feature? Felicitações to everyone, including the subtitle translators who made it possible (mostly the #Oscars, but maybe also the justice?).

This nation’s pets are carrying such a heavy load right now

Wife swap for presidents, but it's just that we get a second Zelensky, and Trump just vanishes from the face of the earth.

Super stoked for the ides of March this year for some reason idk 👉👈

Can't hurt, ya know?

Once again filled with rage after having just calculated my own taxes. (Happy to pay, but not if Musk gets to use them, and also I hate having to guess how much to pay and finding out if I'm right at the end of the year.) As a self-employed person, my tax burden is way higher than theirs.

The Secret IRS Files: Trove of Never-Before-Seen Records Reveal How the Wealthiest Avoid Income Tax ProPublica has obtained a vast cache of IRS information showing how billionaires like Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Warren Buffett pay little in income tax compared to their massive wealth — sometimes, ev...

I'm def not a financial expert, but could the banks providing Musk with his tax-evasion loans shut off his access? If sanctions in the public sector fail, what about private ones? And if they could, would they? 👀

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position.

You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

The political climate has got me out here like, "Can u jailbreak a kindle?" #fuckjeffbezos

Nothing like throwing a grenade and peacing out before it truly goes off.

If you were wondering if there is a word to describe how the United States is currently being governed, why, yes, there is: kakistocracy!

I'm okay with Trump being a king. Here are some whose legacies I hope he can match:
-Charles I
-Louis XVI
-James II
-Macbeth
-Joffrey Baratheon

Jair Bolsonaro charged over alleged far-right coup plot to seize power in Brazil Former president is charged by attorney general following police report that accused him of organising a conspiracy to stop Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva taking power.

Oh, look what normal countries do when a former president leads a far right coup attempt.

Trump’s Opening Salvo 5-4 · Episode

Look, as @fivefourpod.bsky.social points out, Trump is throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks as a way to test boundaries. But also, I think it's because he's so full of shit that he knew he'd never run out. Helpful listen: the fact that the hosts can still laugh makes me want to cry less.

What's more embarrassing? Not being able to read statistics in an informed way or having Twilight be your go-to vampire reference?

so far going anti-woke leads to less money and planes falling out of the sky

Your friendly neighborhood librarian here...buy physical copies of your favorite books, especially challenged or banned books. Preferably from small local merchants. That's all; carry on. #Read #BookSky #Resist 📚

I was not emotionally prepared for the movie Flow.
