BREAKING: The Supreme Court denied an attempt to challenge Obergefell v. Hodges, the case affirming marriage equality nationwide.

Our freedom to marry remains the law of the land.

Cull the Democratic Party. Systematically chip away all the weak, corporate centrists and corrupt, gutless elected officials who refuse to fight and instead suck at the teat of the oligarchy.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

So now can we be done having parasocial relationships with politicians?

They are tools. They should be backed at the ballot box when necessary and criticized liberally in public. But not a single one of them needs uncritical public support and not a single one of them is above reproach.

When our society says β€œgirls” to mean anyone under 30, I think the particularly heinous harm they are inflicting *on children* should be emphasized. Because the pedos act like it’s β€œcollege girls” but it’s children as young as 11- possibly younger. Also- they were likely not all girls.

Flying at 8000 feet today

Captain says flying at 8000 feet (!) Newark to Savannah today instead of 34000 because of air traffic control restrictions. Everyone has to say seated including flight attendants. Never in my 40 years in flying has this happened … wondering what the view will be πŸ˜€

Is anyone else finding America particularly terrifying right now? Here we have a β€œpro-life” Christian man calling for Stevie Nicks to be executed and pastors are preaching that the 19th amendment that allows women the vote should be repealed.

Why hasn't the Chump DOJ indicted him?

Ivana was set to be deposed in Leticia James' investigation into the Trump family finances when she was de-escaliered. I've read, too, that her NDA with her rotisserie chicken-skinned ex was about to expire.

One thing to do, especially if you’re a science writer or editor, is when you have occasion to mention the names of the discoverers of the structure of DNA, just say β€œWatson, Crick, and Franklin.” No one can stop us, and it is correct.

this is the craziest thing I've read in a long time???? Meta projected that 10% of its revenue last year, $16 billion, came from scams. Meta intentionally charges the scammers MORE and knows that people who click on scams are more likely to see more of them www.reuters.com/investigatio...
