Remember back in the day when Congress used to be in charge of appropriations?

🧑‍🌾 FOX: “A pretty grim picture”

NBC ran a piece where Mary Carrillo went to Norway to find out why they're so good at the Winter Olympics and i was yelling BECAUSE IT'S COLD THERE

then she went to a little tiny ski jump for kids and was like "it's free, equipment is provided, & they don't emphasize results"

“Is there a technology the left is excited about?”

High-speed rail! MRNA vaccines! New cancer treatments! Solar and wind energy collection! Better and longer-range EVs! That wood that's harder than steel! New apples! Fibermaxxing! Buldak Swicy ramen! Muppets! Muppets are too a technology, shut up!

‘The trend is irreversible’: has Romania shattered the link between economic growth and high emissions? Emissions have plunged 75% since communist times in the birthplace of big oil – but for some the transition has been brutal

Romania has decoupled economic growth from pollution faster than anywhere else in EU. Its net greenhouse gas emissions intensity fell 88% between 1990 & 2023, so each euro’s worth of economic activity heats planet 10 times less. Emissions have plunged by 75%. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

DHS is holding a 2-month-old BABY at a detention facility in Texas.

Last night, Juan Nicolás was rushed to the hospital after choking on his own vomit & being unable to breathe.

Last night Kristen Spours, Team GB's sole entry in the women's figure skating, skated a beautiful routine despite not having full use of her left leg due to spinal surgery last summer.

Stephen Colbert SLAMS CBS for not letting James Talarico on Late Night

James Talarico: “This is the party that ran against cancel culture, and now they are trying to control what we watch, what we say, and what we read.

This is the most dangerous kind of cancel culture — the kind that comes from the top."

“.. We could spend the whole day reacting to every buffoonish spectacle coming out of the White House, but that's exactly what they want: for us to lose focus …
Don't be distracted by the noise; watch what they are doing to your rights while you stare at the screen.”

Insanity. They are laughing at us.

🔥 the only appropriate reaction to Lydia Moynihan

Civil rights leader Jesse Jackson has passed away at the age of 84. My thoughts are with his family.

I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

1. I would vote for anyone who could win a Democratic primary in 2028
2. I will vote for the most credible left candidate in the primary
3. The two-party system is bad and we should replace it with proportional representation
4. The presidency is bad and we should replace it with a Prime Minister

Does that seem fair to you?

BREAKING NEWS: The Rev. Jesse Jackson was a lifelong civil rights advocate until his death Tuesday at the age of 84.

Heard an interview today where a guy said (and I'm paraphrasing) "LLMs have had years to train on every aspect of chess, read every book and article about it, review every match, but when they play, they STILL makes illegal moves. That tells you everything."

And.

Yup.

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

I'm sorry* to all the men who think I should stick to archaeology and not discuss politics ever.

*literally go fuck broken glass, I am so tired of you policing women on the internet

Narrator: He has not been “totally exonerated”
