can’t even put people through a woodchipper anymore because of woke

I miss it being just suggestions instead of ‘automatically changed the word you chose to something else entirely right as you were hitting send.’ Ahhhh halcyon days, those were!

Me: Long end table with drawers

Search engine: Here are a bunch of tiny nightstands, a few dressers and some console tables!

Remember when search engines actually worked? That was nice.

people need to learn to love themselves more than that 😭

Remember when Ruben Gallego preened around over his support for the Laken Riley Act, and pundits treated him as having the magic key to Dems' working class woes?

Well, Spanberger voted against it and erased GOP gains with working class, including among Latinos:

Something any survivor of abuse can tell you is that one of the most painful parts of surviving abuse is the isolation that follows. Abusers are seldom abandoned, but victims are.

21 mm?!?! That sounds like hell on earth even with one color!

Unreal!! Human creativity is such a joy.

short version: they mask bc state security force defections are *the* mechanism through which nonviolent protest is successful. it's a repressive regime that has learned from the past 20 years of other repressive regimes who have all become increasingly skilled at stymieing nonviolent movements.

I do think this is a point of radicalization because a lot of angry, angry normal people were ready to dig in and suffer a lot in order to make fascists suffer a little, and their resolution was sold out and made into a mockery

It sucks so much. I spent the weekend mostly listening to audiobooks & working on craft projects, which kept my brain & hands engaged enough to actually mostly stay off here. It helped a LOT. I hope you can find something that will help you do the same - you deserve a break. ❤️

Elon Musk being reduced to a smear on the sidewalk by an 87 year old woman is, frankly, fucking delightful.

It’s not the trial for mass murder & then hanging he deserves, but it’s a start.

CALL NOW: Tell Your Democratic Senator It's Time for Chuck Schumer to Step Aside

Enough is enough. Contact your Democratic senators TODAY and tell them to call for Senator Schumer to step aside as Minority Leader. We desperately need new leadership in the Democratic Party.

I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:

Primaries for senators

so much suffering and sacrifice only to to agree to terms that will beget more suffering and sacrifice.

Just imagining the meeting where they must have been like “they might cancel my flight? Time to kill the sick.”

Fucking Angus Fucking King

80 year old dried up turd.

Yeah, but that was before air travel was in trouble and the senators were personally affected, see

Primaries are going to take forever in getting rid of some of these useless assholes. We need to make their lives a misery to them until they quit.

I don’t understand why so many Senators are determined to get us building guillotines, but they very clearly are.

"Hyde language" would be a ban on anything related to abortion. So, any Senate Democrat that caves is agreeing to vote to implement a nationwide abortion ban in exchange for healthcare subsidies.

I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave.

It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.

all of the calls for "moderating on trans issues" are just an excuse to launder the author's own bigotry into the political sphere

do the right thing and tell them to go to hell, support trans rights
