“Superman is too woke!”

Literally the first page of the first ever appearance of Superman:

Historical cartoon. History is (always) now.

It should come to no surprise, RFK jr doesn't understand evolution & his thinking around bird flu & vaccines is both dangerous & scientifically illiterate.

Viruses evolve rapidly because they have a very short generation time. Higher organisms by comparison, have a very long generation time. (1/2)

Canada? Really? They’re not ACTUALLY the 51st state, y’all.

UTAH… this is not a game…

This is patently false.

DHS has authority to question and search people coming into the country at points of entry.

But ICE may not detain and question anyone without reasonable suspicion — and certainly not based on their physical appearance alone.

This lawlessness must stop.

Facts matter.

Welcome to the resistance

Metadata Shows the FBI’s ‘Raw’ Jeffrey Epstein Prison Video Was Likely Modified There is no evidence the footage was deceptively manipulated, but ambiguities around how the video was processed may further fuel conspiracy theories about Epstein's death.

"Metadata embedded in the Epstein video and analyzed by WIRED and independent video forensics experts shows that rather than being a direct export from the prison’s surveillance system, the footage was modified, likely using the professional editing tool Adobe Premiere Pro."

I’ve seen a 5’5” pianist.

So the Kerr County, Texas commissioners refused Federal ARPA funds for emergency warning systems because of “communism” and the result was they killed over 200 people…

This is what hate and GOP rhetoric does to your brain.
It’s deadly.

people need to internalize, very quickly, that federal research grants are a hypercompetitive contracting process not charity, and that what Uncle Sam gets in return for that money is American dominance in the future

A Sankey diagram by Taylor Maggiacomo from the linked column by Matt Bruenig that shows the distribution of age and employment status of Medicaid recipients in 2022. In particular it shows that only 3% of Medicaid recipients were working age but not working long term

Conditioning Medicaid and health care services on work is cruel, counterproductive, and defeats the whole purpose of having insurance

Excellent column from @mattbruenig.bsky.social

"I did the math and it checks out.
8+6+4+7= 25th amendment"

GOP budget talks are breaking down because they can’t agree on legislation that starts killing their voters immediately or delays it until 2029, when a different president will take the fall for it.

The impasse is over timing. Not the crime.

men will literally dismantle the federal government instead of going to therapy

The American I love, a beacon of hope and liberty, is in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous administration. -Bruce Springsteen, 5/14/25

The Boss

On FB I asked:
“Who do you blame for Walmart raising prices because of tariffs”

You wouldn’t believe how many morons are saying ‘Walmart.’

This is completely wrong. I've lived in Europe. They don't want our cars because:

1. Too big for roads and parking spaces

2. Too fuel inefficient in countries where gas is $6/gallon

3. Considered low quality for the cost

I think Peter Navarro is low quality for the cost.

Yes, we noticed. You're still here.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.

No one has heard from you in 64 days.

As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.
