Feminist, relentless abortion rights advocate, foodie, world traveller, music lover, childless cat lady, proud Coloradan with Texas roots. Molly Ivins & Diane Nash are my heroes. The Chicks song "The Long Away Around" pretty well covers it.
Every one of these m*therf*ckers should be personally forced to listen to what a focus group of menopausal GenX women thinks of them.

The real irony here is that this guy is exactly why DEI was important.
A mediocre dude, promoted far beyond his capabilities, based exclusively on who he knows and the fact he’s white and has a penis.
Preventing unmerited propagation of him, was the whole point.
The face of why there's no female loneliness crisis. bsky.app/profile/404m...

Photos from Kamakura yesterday. Churros are everywhere, including a Shinto shrine :)
very fun how so much of this stuff reduces down to “i wanted to be able to say slurs”
oh fuck off

"Palantir CEO Alex Karp says his AI technology will lessen the power of “highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democrat” while increasing the power of working-class men."
Just saying it right out loud now.

This is Nathan Cavanaugh, another DOGE staffer explaining how he flagged grants at NEH for "DEI" which would be reviewed for termination. 404 Media has reviewed hours of this footage and we'll have more soon.

I don't care how much room it takes up or if it ruins the lyricism of the lede, newsrooms should require this the first time any article mentions executive orders:
"—which are directives that only apply to executive branch employees, and may only be in regard to how they carry out existing law—"

One of my friends was the lobbyist for a Colorado anti-sexual assault organization at the time and can confirm. Their rape crisis hotline number stopped ringing for six months. When it did start ringing again, callers were afraid their name would be said in open court like hers was.
Records are made to be broken but, I can't stress this enough, this was not the record. Wilt Chamberlain still holds that by a lot.
Sportswriters complaining that Kobe got knocked down to third sound like MAGA idiots arguing that Riley Gaines really deserves the honor of fourth place. Grow up.
$11.3 billion in a week.
That would have paid the enhanced ACA subsidies for a year for ~8 million Americans.
I mean, I appreciate what they’re doing to promote Talarico? But it’s unusual to get a cross-party assist like this. Thought Senate Rs were supporting Cornyn.
If you don’t think Kamala Harris would have been better for every one of us you are delusional. Nuts.
I wrote about The Florsheim Affair, and what kind of man wears the ill-fitting dress shoes his weird boss gave him to work. defector.com/report-presi...
we now have an answer to “what if caligula had dementia?”
It gets better. Here's Vance and Rubio in the Oval Office...
Subservience markers.
apparently he's got this thing for these shoes and he guesses people's size and orders them and none of them have the balls to say, Oh sorry these don't fit me!
hmm
The idea that America isn’t for everyone who wants to be an American is something that makes my blood boil. Posting a photo of yourself as a Congressman smiling next to these words is wicked. It’s antithetical to the concept of America.
This is the 26th time I’ve posted this Doonesbury since 2015.
Alina Habba condemns Kamala Harris’s remarks at Reggie Jackson’s funeral. (It was Jesse Jackson).
Bonus points to anyone who has the 1st Amendment stones to do their job and verbally punch a bully in his tiny, tiny nuts.
I memorized not just numbers but the patterns on my phone.
