So cathartic and such a good workout. We all left feeling energized and slightly euphoric!

Today I went to a rage room with some friends and absolutely destroyed an old laminator, a broken tv, and several dozen chipped plates, vases, bottles, bowls, and one headless wedding cake topper.

Every time we smashed something, we would yell out “fuck you, [insert hated politician name here]!”

The entire American economy is being held hostage to the whims of a guy who doesn’t understand how the economy works

The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”

Since Link is banned, his mutual aid Fridays have gone with him. This was one of the most altruistic things I’ve seen anyone on this site do.

In light of this, I’m gonna try to fill the gap.

Drop your mutual aid requests under this thread and I will repost them for as long as I can.

Why has Dominion Voting Systems been settling defamation lawsuits with Trump allies who falsely claimed the company stole the 2020 election?

Because Dominion has just been bought by a company run by a former GOP election official.

Be warned.

There’s no evidence to suggest Tylenol causes autism.

There’s no evidence to suggest early circumcision causes autism.

There’s no evidence to suggest we’re in an “autism epidemic”.

There is evidence to suggest that RFK Jr is a eugenicist who’s a menace to society and public health.

Just to be clear:

Trans people are the working class. Black people are the working class. Immigrants are the working class. Pregnant people are the working class. Brown people are the working class. Asian people are the working class. Disabled people are the working class.

The Senate has just passed the military NDAA containing 2 anti-trans provisions: a surgery ban using federal funds (dependents too), and a sports ban on military academy spaces.

This will be the STARTING point for negotiations with the House, which has even worse provisions.

Only 20 Dems opposed.

Link's ban is wrong and should be reversed.

Here's the thing. Over the last few days people have wanted to discourse, or play lawyer, or be petty and weird with minutia

Whatever.

It's real simple to me.

Link being permanently banned is wrong. That decision should be reversed.

Period.

‘Catastrophic decline’ in Black representation in children’s books A report by charity Inclusive Books for Children found that of the 2,721 books surveyed, only 51 featured a Black main character, down by 21.5% since 2023

One of the things about this study is that a lot of baby and toddler books are written in house, by editors. So the study reveals the whiteness of editorial in kidlit even if not explicitly. But, big picture, this trend is unacceptable. I remember so many promises www.theguardian.com/books/2025/o...

WATCH: @chrislhayes.bsky.social explains precisely why Mike Johnson is stalling the new Dem rep's swear-in over the Epstein vote: "Right now, Johnson can pressure the four Republican signers to change their minds. He has time to do it—as long as he keeps Adelita Grijalva out of Congress."

Trump has been illegally bombing boats off the coast of Venezuela.

Tim Kaine and Adam Schiff forced a vote on reasserting Congress's role over war powers and ending this reckless
warmongering.

It failed 48-51.

Murkowski and Paul voted yes.

Fetterman voted no.

Schiff: "If a president in secret can put names on a list and kill them, then there is no war power still retained by Congress, and there's no check on an executive who may drag us into another war."

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

ICE will reportedly hire contractors to surveil social media platforms 24/7 to target people for deportations.

The information would then be funneled into an existing ICE database built by Palantir (founded by Trump ally Peter Thiel).

"The party of small government,” folks.
