I think if Lorne Michaels wants to go to comedy heaven, they should redo the 2016 DJT episode with the baby Donald balloon replacing him in every sketch.

"None Of These Books Are Obscene": Judge Strikes Down Much of Florida's Book Ban Bill In a major win for intellectual freedom, a judge rules against Florida law that led to removing hundreds of books from school libraries.

“None Of These Books Are Obscene”: Judge Strikes Down Much of Florida’s Book Ban Bill

@ifbookspod.bsky.social is this the opposite of The Population Bomb? Please read this so I don't have to.

Republicans are still trying to pass their Big Betrayal Bill.

They held the previous vote open for hours—and STILL don’t have their shit together.

Maybe the problem isn’t the vote count. Maybe it’s the bill.

You can hold the vote open all night…trash is still trash.

This list isn’t even complete, there are just too many to name, and honestly, people would stop reading. Turnout across the country was historic. Drop a shoutout in the comments if your city showed up!

From coast to coast, city streets to small town squares, you showed up. And it mattered.

Honored to announce: 12.1 million in attendance.

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.

I only recently learned that this is the original Rosie The Riveter . The poster we all think of was one created by the Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company. They took the propo image and localized it.

One of my pet peeves as an environmental journalist is when people go on and on about how "toxic" our environment is.

Bitch, compared to what?

100 years ago women were literally eating radium (radioactive substance) for work

Lead was in everything

So was arsenic /1

I did this to a guy I used to work with. Took him three days to figure it out.

No, he wasn't very bright.

Look if there is anything my brief time dealing with the DSA taught me it is that a group of dedicated nerds with a book of parliamentary procedure acting in bad faith can obstruct the shit out of anything and grind an org to a halt. Get on it, Dems.

I want you to put the word out there that we back up.

ariella.elm 2h Follow @senalexpadilla office just said they're not getting any calls about the filibuster. When you call your senator if they are a Democrat, ask them if they are going to be speaking and to publicize it because most people don't know. •138 Q14 23

Jasmine Crockett, after accusing colleagues of castrating their Constitutional duty, said, “My job is to make sure we don’t have any kings or queens in this country, but it seems like you all have decided it’s going to be Mr. King and his queen. And y’all can pick which one is which.”

Workplace sabotage is a lost art.

Okay, pardon us, but F this. America, you’ve got to stand up.
