no :)

I try to remind myself that no matter how unlikely it feels sometimes, it's possible that there are brighter days ahead. And I (at the very least) owe it to myself to keep that possibility open. I hope you can remind yourself that too 💜

I'm so sorry Seamus. I promise you you're not alone. I know how hard that is to believe. These last two years have been the most difficult of my life and I've become so familiar with feelings of isolation and not wanting to continue. You're right that things could get better though.

One time I was out to brunch in DC and I was shit talking Klobuchar's presidential campaign not realizing that her and her daughter were at the table next to me well within earshot

I've heard arguments similar to this about his apparent mental decline. And I heard from someone claiming to have previously worked with him that he was pretty normal but still had opinions that were "fringe". Idk about his work early on but he definitely has a habit of inappropriate crying lol

It'd be more likely that he actually devolved to a point where he's genuinely trying to have a conversation with a gorilla

You're no better than a Republican. Also you talk like there are rubber bands holding your jaws together. What's up w that? Is it a bootlicker thing?

“What Was Israel Supposed To Do After October 7?” Is Asking The Wrong Question A much more useful and interesting question than “What was Israel supposed to do in response to October 7?” is “What were Palestinians supposed to do in response to all of Israel’s abuses prior to …

TL cleanse:

"What if we taught men to get laid leftistly"

what if men cared about the loss of our bodily autonomy, the abuse we face as a result of coerced economic dependence and the actual pandemic of femicidal violence we have to contend with, more than they cared about sexual access to our bodies

This is truly heartbreaking

The quiet war: What’s fueling Israel’s surge of settler violence – and the lack of state response Violence in the West Bank has intensified since the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel and the ensuing war in Gaza.

As U.S. aid flows to Israel, settler violence in the West Bank is surging – with little state restraint. Experts say it’s part of a larger strategy to forcibly reshape the region. buff.ly/CpMDami

Israel is committing genocide

The media likes to take marginal positions, complaints, and behavior and inflate it because outrage and ridicule drive clicks. The Right is very good at attributing marginal, often Very Online, statements and behavior to The Democratic Party As A Whole. Gullible people who aren’t Right accept this.

Okay after listening again the reference to conspiracy theories seems like a risk to their audience so I yeah I could definitely be wrong

Maybe she disagrees w his politics but they give her talking points? It's not like they'd risk her actually making compelling arguments.

Idk fortunately I've never seen an episode. I work in tv production though and it seems unlikely that dialogue isn't scripted to an extent.

Also to whoever posted this, you forgot alt text. Why am I not surprised

You've turned your back on immigrants in Massachusetts. You're a sick performative fraud.

social media is genuinely terrible

I think it's just a stunt for the show. Like I'm sure she's his mom but I don't believe the conversation is authentic

Gross

It's so upsetting that people's concerns about public health are being manipulated to such an extent. It's obviously one's responsibility to check sources, but what hope do we have when the Secretary of Health is a money hungry psychopath?

Earth didn't ask for this 🥺

I dislike NPR National and the testimony from the CEO was abominable

But we need civic media based in communities

Do donate to LOCAL stations but

- earmark for your local or programs you like

- tell National why you are doing that

‪Rick Dossey‬ ‪@spandrelbarca.bsky.social‬ · 12h I’m stunned how the transgender community is so myopic in the distaste of Newsom… particularly in comparison to Trump/MAGA. I’m used to watching MAGA voters vote against their own interests… but the Newsom Derangement Syndrome on the part of the transgender respondents is saddening.

love the idea that not voting for Newsom - a guy actively hostile to the trans community right now - is somehow voting against our own interests as trans people.

ICE was in the Fairfax County Courthouse this week. Their visit appeared to be welcomed & facilitated by the Sheriff. ICE waited until clients were separated from their attorneys to detain them, shuttle them off in unmarked vehicles, then laugh at those who asked what was going on.
