I find it really curious that many people, myself included, feel like Newsom should have an E at the end of his name

what people seem to believe is that there is a large number of criminal, layabout immigrants who can be easily found and deported. they support doing so snd are dismayed by the deportation of otherwise law abiding people. the problem is that the criminal group is imaginary!

My favorite animal is humans

If your kid is into Harry Potter, I get it. Try to introduce them to new things and try to explain Rowling’s bigotry as they get older. But dont get them into Harry Potter because you loved if they’re not already at this stage.

Ngl, it's pretty weird how attached adults are to a children's book series as if it's like peak literature

Are yall saying you literally haven't read anything else in the last 30 years?

The image shows a text post from a tumble user with the handle "theconcealedweapon" making an argument about the importance of protecting the rights of criminals as a safeguard against government tyranny. The post presents the following key points: If you want to prevent government tyranny, ensuring criminals have rights must be your top priority This is not meant as a joke or exaggeration Without rights for criminals, governments can simply label people as criminals to strip away their rights The post claims this has been a common tactic of tyrannical governments throughout history The post concludes that believing people who break laws should forfeit their rights is effectively supporting tyranny The argument centers on the idea that due process and legal protections for accused/convicted persons are fundamental safeguards against authoritarian government overreach.

no lies detected. #civilrights

I really just want everyone to understand the magic wires they've got in their home and all the cool stuff they can do with 'em.

the one downside of this app is that i can’t wave trump’s union busting executive order in the faces of every credulous dipshit who insisted that the GOP was a worker’s party now

Opinion | DOGE says it’s saving $100 billion. It’s about to lose a lot more. Cuts to the IRS will backfire by giving tax evaders a free pass.

"the plan to shrink IRS staff by up to 50% would — very conservatively — lead to a $400 billion increase in uncollected taxes over the next decade. It could easily mean more than $2 trillion in losses..."

I've been thinking a lot about that bumper sticker which says "everything looks like a conspiracy theory when you don't understand how anything works" and folks it's pretty obvious to me that the people in power right now have absolutely no desire to understand how anything works.

if you like something that target or amazon carries and you still want that product, go to the manufacturer's website and see if you can order it directly from them.

it's saved me from giving either of them money, and it's equally as convenient as using the target or amazon apps.

Dear Spotify users,

Spotify platforms Joe Rogan, who repeatedly has on members of the oligarchy who are dead set on killing your livelihoods. Every month of your subscription money goes towards allowing these people to spread their hate and misinformation across the world.

Leave.

I wonder how many women car passengers are killed each year in crashes when their male partners drive recklessly.

There’s nothing attractive or sexy about a man who speeds and drives aggressively. In fact, it’s the opposite. It reeks of insecurity and is childish.

I think about this headline all of the time.

Hi. So instead of boycotting ONE day, cancel your Amazon prime and quit buying on Amazon.

I hate that wellness got co-opted by the right because there really is a good conversation to have about our food systems and what goes into foods that could be harming us, but instead of passing regulations on food companies like other countries it’s going to be “you can’t buy snacks with SNAP”

Reminder, as DOGE style program slashing appears in state houses and treasuries in all 50 states, the highest paid state job in most states is FOOTBALL COACH followed closely by BASKETBALL COACH at public universities.

confronting musk is hard to do, for politicians, because it would make line go down. and your donors and social circle like it when line go up. rock and a hard place, really

New Jersey just raised tolls on the Turnpike. Should drivers from New York get a break? What about drivers in New Jersey? Congestion pricing opponents' logic falls apart the moment you give it a second of scrutiny.

I know this seems like a minor thing, but something that should be considered in any messaging about this crisis is that Trump explicitly lied about this agenda. They knew Project 2025 was unpopular, that they could not win by running on it, and now they claim a mandate to act on their lies. No.

Congestion pricing works.

I’ve liked this on 3 platforms now 🫡

In my experience, suburbanites who complain how there is nothing to do in their urban core cannot name a single thing that they would want but doesn’t exist there

In cars, children are spectators to the world. On a bicycle, they are players within it.

Do you guys pronounce Noel as Noel or as Noel

Whelp! Congratulations to the Democratic Party for giving Trump a layup slam dunk the DAY BEFORE his inauguration, you toothless, shit suckers.

Look not to be an asshole or anything, but a lot of people who I know got a C in high school government have some really strong opinions about Biden giving "only"!$770 per person in fire aid - the highest amount he is legally allowed to authorize.

I know that there's a lot of tech industry folks on this here website, and I would just like to remind all of you that the world actually functioned before the computer.
