I'm kinda resigned to the fact that most people don't really give a shit about how millions globally will die horrible deaths directly due to Musk and Trump's decision to gut USAID - I guess it's too abstract to comprehend, or something - but it is HAPPENING, and nobody is swooping in to stop it.

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.

In space, Venus flanks Earth on the left, with a hellfire greenhouse effect. Mars on the right, which long ago had running water. Today, it's bone dry. Something bad happened on each planet.

Seems like the wrong time to limit the Nation’s capacity to conduct climate research.

Everyone in the past was neurotypical, which is how we got things like this single-author, eight-volume encyclopedia of ferns

A quote from a German woman by the name of Sophie Scholl, who was 21 years old when she was beheaded by Nazis for distributing leaflets at the University of Munich decrying Nazi crimes and political system. She wrote in one of these leaflets:

And many more are exhausted and barely surviving the cost of healthcare etc etc etc ;-;

If you wonder why men *obsessed* with the United States having more children are kidnapping children and sending them to other countries, those children were the incorrect color.

Pritzker: The reckoning is here. And now that this culture of timidity is on display, these same do-nothing Democrats want to blame our losses on the defense of Black people, trans kids, and immigrants, instead of on their own lack of guts and gumption.

Soon please!!!

Oligarchy (noun):

A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today.

This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

This Administration is trying to erase a human being.

Don't allow it.

We are all connected.

RFK Jr. says there aren't autistic poets. We asked an autistic poet. "I will challenge RFK Jr. to write a poem as good as me any day of the week."

RFK Jr. says there are no autistic poets, so we interviewed one.

Hear from Elizabeth McClellan, @popelizbet.bsky.social, an award-winning poet, attorney, and legal educator based in Memphis, Tennessee.

In today’s atmosphere, it’s obvious why a book warning of totalitarian censorship would be in the American Library Association’s list of most commonly challenged books

Don't Forget The Other State of the Union Sometimes what we see can make us forget what we know.

With all the ugliness in America right now, don't forget the other state of the Union...

That America is black and gay and Muslim and indigenous and undocumented and Jewish and lesbian and White and Atheist and Latino and transgender and female and...

Ukraine fought alongside US in Iraq; never demanded minerals As the two fight over a minerals deal, we review the little-remembered sacrifices that Ukraine made when fighting in the U.S.-led war in Iraq – sacrifices Ukraine never asked to be compensated for.

Eighteen Ukrainian soldiers died in Iraq. No one gave Kyiv any minerals open.substack.com/pub/countero...

A political cartoon of Trump giving his address to Congress. He says the days of rule by unelected bureaucrats is over. The data of rule by unelected billionaires has begun.

The only thing DOGE is doing is cutting any oversight over Elon's companies and creating no-bid contracts for Elon to get more of our money and exercise control over our government.

Cutting everyone's jobs and benefits is a distraction while they raid the Treasury.

Felon47/Krasnov is unfit to serve in any leadership capacity. He’s like a Russian mafia boss.

Can’t stress this enough! And obviously neither the SEC or the DOJ (at least at the highest levels) is going to seriously investigate and prosecute insider trading.

"If Donald Trump stops federal funding to Maine, we the people of Maine will take out federal taxes from all paychecks and no taxes will be paid to the federal government.” ... MAINE GOVERNOR JANET MILLS

Every blue state should start keeping their federal taxes and supporting each other instead of propping up welfare queen red states and sending our taxes to billionaires.

Is America Becoming a Post-Empathy Nation? Lately, I’ve been wondering if we’ve reached a critical mass of cruel people here.

Though many claim to embrace both the Golden Rule and Jesus' command to love others as they love themselves, an army of self-identified faith-filled Americans seem incapable of asking a seemingly elemental question:

"What is it like to be someone else?"
