HEELS!!!!!

This is a bat signal for progressives to primary milquetoast dems who are not up to the moment. Every race in every state.

Calling the Gestapo “the Gestapo” is causing the Gestapo to act like the Gestapo.

This is sort of a throughline in cases of excessive force used by law enforcement. The civilian is supposed to perfectly adhere to some unwritten code of conduct; the armed professional supposedly trained for such situations is only human & must be given lattitude if they succumb to fear and rage.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Stay free

1995 me shaking her head at present day me in disbelief.

I am just a pollster, standing in front of a bunch of elected Dems, asking them to lead on public opinion rather than hedge and tiptoe and moderate for fear an imaginary future backlash that will probably be manufactured by the right wing ecosystem anyway, regardless of what Dems do or don’t say.

Not the most important point, but what women in ICE? Have you seen any?

I believe it’s meant to show the irony - science and faith are 2 different planes that do not intersect, along with the inherent absurdity of title, an anti-intellectual being the most powerful in an intellectual field. If the article doesn’t back that up, though, then wasted and too obscure.

Winner-take-all is not mandated by the Constitution. The verbiage leaves it to the states to decide. It’s a longstanding norm that no one questions.

And your last sentence is confounding? I don’t think anyone agrees with that. We count every legitimate vote. Period.

Winner-take-all is not mandated by the Constitution. The verbiage leaves the states to decide. It’s become such a norm that no one questions it, but we’ve all seen what can happen to norms.

I think this is a fairly easy fix. Get rid of the winner takes all and apportion electoral college votes per state based on popular vote percentage.

Ah, I see you’re lost. This town square has people with critical thinking skills and a hypocrisy barometer. The one you’re looking for is a few blocks down, take a right at the black X. Look for the nazi flags.

I just learned the term kerning yesterday with The Walk of Gold-Horror thing and now it’s everywhere and I can’t unsee it and all my days are ruined.

FORTY days of suffering for absolutely NOTHING. Should have just caved on day 1 then. Into the sun with you.

Elected Dems are going to have to reconcile with the fact they put the American people through FORTY days of suffering for fucking NOTHING. Those spineless cowards now own it.

I’m losing my mind down here in NC. Who do I have to @ and where do I send money to convey we want them to HOLD THE LINE. Come on over, I’ll feed as many as I can and find more who also will. Ffs, don’t let this all have been for nothing.

White man finds something that is not all about him unappealing. Shocker.

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week.

Disappointing. There’s way too much ignorance out there, but there are also a lot of us that know exactly what’s going on and contact our electeds. I’d like to see more emphasis on how politicians respond to what us sane, rational, engaged normies are doing and what our position on issues are.

“Tell your children who the cowards were.”

I hear you, but we’ve all been made to suffer by Susan Collins so we’re all invested and can’t take any more chances.

Thank god for you, Marc. The NCGA doesn’t listen to its constituents. They’ve made it so they don’t have to.

H/t to everyone saying Mills joining the race was good to drag out the oppo on Platner. We still have a year. Maine, what else ya got?

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

My heart is full! Cary NC has turned out spectacularly for No Kings!!

The scene at No Kings in Raleigh, where protesters have been met with a near-constant stream of supportive honks for the last two hours.

Are we *seriously* to the ‘you shouldn’t get to raise your own child if you’re poor’ portion of the program?! Holy fucking shit.

I have a 5th grader and this is bc teachers have to MAKE every single fucking thing a kid learns from. No textbooks. No standard workbooks or worksheets. Teachers are exhausted. Parents are exhausted. Kids suffer. BC THE GOVT WON’T FUND EDUCATION. It’s infuriating.

Sorry to yell in your mentions.
