"It's not MSNBC anymore, Lemon. It's MS NOW. We bought the name off of a defunct multiple sclerosis awareness organization. It wasn't cheap, but we were able to save some money by selling Brian Williams to a Saudi prince who wanted to expand his harem."

I think Pride had to include our Evil Diva’s too

Oh dear, this is definitely the worst non-apology ever….

They didn’t give us our history, and they can’t take it.

Apartheid Clyde a petty, dangerous, incompetent man but what always amuses me is how no one likes him and he can’t even buy his way into getting people to like him. He can’t buy a good sense of humor or good looks or good reputation.

ANYWAY, did you know there's an extension you can put on Chrome that will connect with your local library system and when you go look at a book, say on AMZ, it will tell you if that book exists in the library system and if it's available?

It's literally called Library Extension.

that Noem video reinforces my belief that there is a streak of sexualized sadism on the US right that goes back to lynching imagery but began in its most recent form with the enthusiasm for torture during the Bush years.

Robot spraying a human with water: “STOP READING ARGUMENTS ON THE INTERNET! YOU'RE MAKING YOURSELF UPSET!” The human looks back and hisses.

Ah, he never disappoints.

I second your thank you and wonder if I made an impression on my college boyfriend??

I'd like to extend an unironic thank you to the "classic women's-studies feminist type of girl" who taught Peter stuff in college. It's unglamorous and important work 😃

what the right is offering young men is the subjugation of women in lieu of any material gains for men. that, like many components of fascism, feels very immediately rewarding to some people. it’s not something you can easily replicate on the left.

one of the things i truly believe is that a significant portion of this country is in the grip of a death cult

Republican U.S. Sen. Roger Marshall has blamed the turmoil that erupted at a recent town hall meeting in rural Kansas on “paid Democratic operatives.”

But the people who attended the meeting say they are just concerned Kansans who wanted their senator to hear their concerns.

There is no administration in modern history that has so vehemently and rapidly expressed its disdain for veterans and if Democrats were doing even a fraction of this every newspaper in the country would be calling for resignations

The Green Man. European mythology about a man who lives in the woods, but is more forest than human

I am used to a few twigs and leaves in my hair after a days work, but after three days it gets a bit ridiculous 🙄

Celebrate International Women's Day by interrupting men with your unsolicited opinions and taking credit for their work. If they get upset about it, be sure to tell them that they sound hysterical and should smile more.

One thing I don't understand from this finger-wagging is how women are supposed to forgive these young men for their immediate recourse to misogyny.

I got your waste, fraud, and abuse right here

For decades, a doctor refused to charge patients who couldn't pay. When he couldn't pay, his patients came to his aid. When Dr. Michael Zollicoffer was diagnosed with two types of cancer, his patients started a crowdfunding campaign that raised more than $100,000.

A doctor has been serving one of Baltimore’s poorest neighborhoods for decades — and if his patients can’t pay, that’s OK with him.

So when he was diagnosed with cancer, his community rallied to raise $100,000 for his treatments.

As we honor Women’s History Month, let’s remember the strength and resilience of enslaved women who fought for freedom and shaped history. Their resilience continues to inspire the fight for justice today. 165 days to Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountDowntoSRD

Took a train down from Vermont to NYC and wrote more on my novel than in weeks. I should just ride back and forth this spring break. I’d probably finish sooner.
