As long as NYT is asking “Did women ruin the workplace” can they also ask:
•Did men ruin safe workplaces?
•Did men ruin domestic safety?
•Did men ruin public safety?
•Did men ruin global peace?
Or is a clear “YES” to all these questions just too difficult for fragile men to accept—so NYT avoids it?🤔

"You have at times seemed to question the very concept of a career. You told senior Barry Platowski, 'We are here on Earth to fart around, and don’t let anybody tell you different.'"

The administration went all the way to the Supreme Court on Friday night to halt food-stamp funding. 🤡

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

Even the senators who are retiring and think they won't have to face the wrath of furious Democratic voters should know that their last name is about to become so toxic that not even a goddamn nonprofit is going to want you on the board.

This is part of the tragedy of a surrender now. It invites more pain and suffering by emboldening the regime. Why should they listen to a weak opposition?

$40B of your money to this guy, so he can dance at CPAC at Mar-a-Lago while Americans wait for their paychecks, hoping the money actually comes.

Let's take the conceit that Trump is running America like a business. Would you give all upper management a two month paid vacation so they can focus on starving their customers because you're so dedicated to uninsuring millions of said customers?

I don’t…what…huh??

Casual

Ryan Moulton @moultano Oil is the most Lovecraftian thing that actually exists. You're telling me that there's a black ichor under the earth, made from the ancient dead, whose burning can realize all the dreams of man but only at the price of slowly returning the earth to its primordial state?

Absolutely The Truth….

Biden on Trump destroying the East Wing: "It's a perfect symbol of his presidency. Trump has taken a wrecking ball not only to the people's house but to the Constitution, to the rule of law, to our very democracy."

Senate update: Republicans are now trying to sneak a backdoor national abortion ban into their government funding bill. Republicans will stop at nothing to control women's health care decisions.

actual communism

SNAP has existed for 60 years. Benefits have gone out every single month over those six decades, including during government shutdowns. Until now.

Make no mistake: The money is available to fund SNAP during this shutdown. Trump is making a choice to withhold it.

Don’t forget this.

these chat replies are nauseatingly evil. like I'm actually sick to my stomach.

I am terrified Mamdani is going to do something extreme, like subsidize a few grocery stores, says people who don’t bat an eye at for-profit companies with billion dollar subsidies.

They never say this “liquid” bullshit when it comes to tax cuts for the rich or wars or giving money to their friends (in Argentina) etc

Families Rally After Feds Take Chicago Daycare Teacher: 'We Are Filled With Rage' Hundreds of neighbors gathered in North Center demanding that federal immigration agents stay out of schools after a teacher was chased into and pulled out of a preschool by officers.

This took place yesterday on the north side of Chicago, I lived 2 blocks from here. Just for reference, Lane Tech High School, is directly across the street. ICE enjoys intimidating, terrorizing and harming communities, as does this administration. #ice blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/06/f...

It Is Cruel to Deny Food Assistance to Those Who Truly Deserve It: Corporations “Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of beneficiaries of federal aid programs like Medicaid and food stamps, according to a study by...

"Corporations trying to get by without having to pay their employees a living wage could really suffer if they have to absorb the costs of the nearly 13% of SNAP recipients who aren’t able to afford food anymore, or of workers having to miss a shift to stand in line at a food bank."
