Kamala Harris campaigned on making home care part of Medicare, which would’ve greatly eased the issue of caring for our parents.

But Trump won so we not only didn’t get that, we’re getting devastation of nursing homes as well.

This is going to ruin a lot of families.

A Farewell to β€˜Duster’: A Gripping ’70s Crime Drama Canceled Too Soon β€˜Duster’ had everything: car chases, classic vinyl, deep-cut history and two dynamic leads at its core. HBO canceled it after just one season, but the world it builtβ€”and the stories it …

Incredibly sad to hear the news about Duster. One season wasn’t enough for everything this show had brewing.

Shout-out to @morganicink.bsky.social and the team for creating something this bold and resonant.

A tribute to my favorite show of 2025:

BREAKING: A woman was kicked out of a women’s bathroom at a Massachusetts hotel by a security guard who demanded she β€œprove her gender.”

No badge gives you the right to sexually harass someone in a bathroom. This is what fascism looks like in real time.

And it’s coming to your city next.

Man films and confronts two suspected undercover ICE officers (potentially NYPD) after they racially profiled and handcuffed a random civilian. Keep doing this shit. Make these fuckers famous. Make all police and immigration officers fear having their faces known to the masses.

It’s a month since the administration detained and disappeared a green card holder, a lawful permanent resident.

We cannot allow this to be normalized or forgotten.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Despite its purposely misleading name, the SAVE Act is an assault on voting rights that limits access to the polls for millions of Americans, perpetuates the myth of non-citizen voters, and undermines faith in our Elections.

Don’t get me wrong, I DETEST the Tangerine Man, but did America have any trade with Russia since the Ukraine invasion? With all the sanctions, I would hope we ceased all trade as well, in which case there’s no need for a tariff on non-existent goods. Free loading penguins though…

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: It has come to my attention that several agencies are now offering WiFi for you to use with your PERSONAL devices. If I were you, I would NOT use that WiFi. I suspect it's a way for DOGE to monitor your personal communications.

That’s exactly what I was thinking. Also if there isn’t anything in particular, if it is just a protest, it needs a hell of a lot more than 3 Dems. Where are the rest of them?!
If there isn’t currently a bill up, this better be practice for the next one. It gas to happen often.
