A slacker who is fed up with these interlocking systems of control but just waiting for them to collapse. I have the optimism of physics, that which is unsustainable cannot be sustained, on a long enough timeline.

Nothing screams "stable genius" like threatening to deport your car salesman, two months after you made him the most unaccountably powerful figure in the US government.

Surprised that Federal violence against Americans provoked a violent response from Americans? Trump and Steven Miller aren't, it's the essential part of their plan to escalate his presidency into the bonus level, Martial Law.

It's been just over a year since LAPD allowed white supremacist gangs to beat on people protesting for peace for four hours before they moved in to arrest the peace protesters. Protesting the system in LA is an act of extreme courage.

Article 92 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice requires commanders to follow all laws and regulations when they're giving orders. The leader of the CA National Guard should be ashamed that he failed his chain of command.

I've been thinking about Harlan County War. How we might fight and die to join a union that is already compromised by the bosses.

That's how I see the Democrats' call, Come save democracy so Chuck Schumer can keep his job! ?

Since '94, the Dem slogan has been, even when we win, you lose.

Freedom People are like, "Government shouldn't be regulating businesses!", but somehow Freedom People are also, "The President gets to destroy a business with an executive order if they don't do what he says!"

That math ain't mathing, Freedom People.

Bootlicking the rich in the hopes that they will do something for you is the opposite of Populism.

Not surprisingly, we can thank the media run by rich people for this handy redefinition of populism as sycophancy.

In honor of the Union soldiers first memorialized on this day, could y'all lower the Confederate flag? Just for today, at least.

America. For when you want a meritocracy, but you also don't want to compete with really smart people.

When Augustus killed the Roman Republic, he kept the Senate around for the pomp and circumstance after he made them irrelevant. Most Senators were happy to play along with the charade if it meant they could still wear the special toga.

It's not the $400 million Qatar is gifting Trump, it's all the US tax payer dollars Trump promised as a return on their investment.

As we prepare ourselves for the big-beautiful parade to celebrate the army's 250th anniversary, I want to set the record straight. He didn't own those buildings, he just managed them for his dad.

I know the Edsel was named after Henry Ford's son, I don't think it's at least possible that somewhere Elon has a kid named Cybertuck.

When he says, "Gulf of America" he's talking about the huge chasm he dug between this country and every other country in the world (except Russia, somehow).

The most important thing an abusive partner does in a new relationship is isolate you from your friends so you are easier to control.

No way even millions of immigrants are more dangerous to America than any single billionaire.

Three things I learned growing up watching Dukes of Hazzard: 1) cars can fly. 2) rich people get elected and use their power to get richer. 3) eventually, even the good ole boys end up on Boss Hogg's list.

With DeepSeek, it looks like Big Tech forgot a lean startup maxim. You can have too much money to do a project right.

You might have a very narrow understanding of masculinity if you think it emanates from your penis.

If people are wondering if a billionaire would go ahead with a trade war, even if it wrecks our economy, just look at how great the crashes of 2008 and 2020 were for the 1%. Crashes just mean government bailouts for the corporate class.

TikFuk you, Joe Biden. For your boutique law targeting TikTok to "protect" our data from China while leaving us absolutely exposed to all of the other data platforms preying on Americans from inside the house.

Ok. Let's think about this for a minute. We're expecting people who've had to desensitize on something as catastrophic as Sandy Hook to give two sh!t$ about a health insurance CEO?

Elon Musk buying AD&D gives a) maybe nerds will think I'm cool now, and b) I literally want to be your dungeon master vibes.

I’d like separate bathrooms for MAGAs. I feel unsafe around people who are obsessed with my genitals.

Trump made his DoD picks because he thinks our military is disloyal to him. Now he has leadership in place who will support his ideas to use the military against Americans. Something they refused to do when he put lifelong military leaders in charge of the military the last time around. 2/2

Trump picked a TV personality to head the Department of Defense and a top donor who has never served anywhere to lead the Navy. Anyone who thinks he cares about actual soldiers, sailors, and marines, is deluding themselves. 1/2

No legal guidance was provided to back up their assessment, just, "We fundamentally reject this one on the vibes."
