Every election builds from the past. If Al Gore had been elected, the entire future of this nation would be completely different from where we are now. If we'd elected H. Clinton? Same thing. VP Harris? Same thing. Every election is the most important ever, because each one shapes the future.

I agree. Moral choices are their own rewards, knowing you did the right thing.

These people are like their orange god in that they believe only in quid pro quo. And never EVER make meaningful sacrifices.

White House talking points for congressional Republicans say we're not at war, we're just in "major combat operations against Iran" lol

Looks like the fence is going back up at the MDC in Los Angeles. The previous iteration of the fence made the sidewalk nearly impassable and caused serious issues for wheelchair-bound Angelenos trying not to fall into the street, but I'm sure they've fixed that issue this time around..

Emotional regulation. Being able to regulate yourself well is hard, not glamorous and doesnt garner confetti but it is the most important skill any of us can have. Literally everything else can be missing but if you got that, you are really on your way

BREAKING: SCOTUS shadow docket decision rules in favor of forced outing of trans students, reinstating a lower court ruling against California's law prohibiting forced outing. Also references forcing teachers to misgender trans students. Horrific precedent.

How typical is it of mostly stupid-as-rocks rank and file US Republicans that rather than marching purposefully and triumphantly into conservative, right wing, authoritarian fascism, they fall backwards into it, not understanding anything about it, what it is, why it's bad, the costs, the risks?

This sucks. Love Bruce Campbell. Fun story though: when I was a kid running a BBS out of my house without my parents knowing, a friend gave Campbell the BBS number during a press junket for Army of Darkness. And he called it! Left a message behind for the board users. It was super cool of him.

The people supporting this bombing are the same people who spout canned justifications for lynching, school shootings, police brutality, and ICE building concentration camps. They do not have compassion, empathy or human decency to appeal to in way. They enjoy the suffering of others like a meal.

Total lunar eclipse March 2026: A complete guide to the next 'blood moon' A total lunar eclipse on March 3-4, 2026, will be visible in North America and will be the last total lunar eclipse anywhere on Earth until New Year's Eve 2028-2029.

March's full moon (the "Worm Moon") is tonight.

There will also be a total lunar eclipse, making it a "blood" moon.

So enjoy the blood worm moon, I guess.

Gross.

we protected my mom from COVID for 5 years. She caught it at the hospital during an outbreak in the dialysis ward (!!) and died 5 days later.

we will do nothing with this information as a society

I think it’s just racism. Picking on a smart Black man never goes out of style in the States.

I think the fact that so many people who dislike BlueSky are reposting a weird person making an unpopular and insane claim about Jamelle Bouie as a sign of some deeper trend is probably more telling than the weird and unpopular claim. Noah Smith suggests it is a cultural norm that enabled fascism.

Accusing Jamelle Bouie of "exaggerated nastiness" and "hateful, uncharitable commentary" is absolutely insane.

Anyone who knows film history knows that the current conservative freak-out about "woke" films is based on ignorance. This 1972 production would cause a conservative meltdown if it happened today. That's because they are disconnected from reality. Very beta these conservatives. Sad!

Since it is also Theodor Geisel's (1904-1991) birthday, let's watch The Lorax. Obviously, the 1972 version. Not the 2012 version. Not that it's bad. Just because, "Why?!"
