The most Me AF™️ scene in cinematic history (bless you, Holly Hunter 🙏🏻)

Fired, rehired, and fired again: Some federal workers find they're suddenly uninsured Commerce Department employees caught up in a legal battle over their mass firings are now learning that their health care coverage was cut off weeks ago, even though they were paying their premiums.

Let’s be real: I was born in 1979 and I’m pretty sure we will not see a woman president in my lifetime.

The most frustrating thing about it is that SHE ACTUALLY WON but because of archaic laws put in place by long-dead white men in order to protect their own financial interests, they took it from her and gave it to a literal game show host. It’s the most on-brand thing we have ever done as a country.

I knew that it would take literally everything we had to get her to win because I KNEW — I grew up in rural America and still keep my eye on that demographic — there was NO WAY they would elect a WOMAN after the (perceived) “indignity” of having 8 yrs of a Black man who supported gays. I knew it

I was *screaming* in 2015 that he would bulldoze us into oblivion if we didn’t band together behind HRC, even if it meant a pres who didn’t pass the purity tests that dems love so much. Ppl voted for ideals instead of reality, & even tho she still won, she lost. It’s been a shitstorm ever since

I don’t think the email is fake, but I do think they used an erroneous dataset when determining the recipients. And their incompetence is just as horrifying to me as the things they do on purpose.

These fecking clowns 🤡🤦🏼‍♀️

Don’t buy today. Give the greedheads a taste of their own medicine.

I don’t understand why Logan Lucky wasn’t a huge box office smash, probably because Soderbergh released it without big studio backing, but my God that movie is perfect. I watch it all the time.

Was looking for the comment that pointed out the obvious: it was a western with a female lead (she also co-produced), so obviously people tried to shitcan it and forget it, that’s patriarchy for you

So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”?

But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"?

Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.

PLEASE: Watch what happened in Coeur d'Alene Idaho today. This is fascism. Unmarked cops. 1A violations. RESIST.

More.

Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.

Kendrick Lamar has 22 Grammies and a damn Pulitzer if you don’t know who he is that’s a You problem

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.
