If the Democrats are to blame, why did the Republicans choose not to show up for work tonight?

Watching @jimmykimmel.com deliver a passionate speech about first amendment rights with my teenager. I cried a little. Then explaining that he hosted The Man Show when I was growing up. What a weird time we live in.

This looks like a lovely space to be in.

Ironically, I have misplaced my copy of How to Keep House While Drowning. #audhd

ICE is literally burning the place down.

Ugh, #studentloans. This isn't about keeping people accountable. If my loans had started with 0% interest, I'd have already paid my balance. Instead, after 19 years of payments, I owe almost $60K. Silver lining: I think the balance is wiped when I die so my kid doesn't inherit my debt?

Gen Z men with college degrees now have the same unemployment rate as non-grads—a sign that the higher education payoff is dead Gen Z is increasingly slamming their degrees as useless, and new research indicates there may be some truth when it comes to the job hunt.

The unemployment rate for non-degreed men in 2010 was 15%--much higher than 5.5% of college and non-college men combined now. Do we remember in 2010 when entry level jobs in manufacturing and retail REQUIRED a college degree? So to this article, I say "Yes, and."

If it took 8 days to build a massive concentration camp in Florida then it means they could build and house the homeless at any point but choose not to

In other news, I have trained Instagram to feed me videos of a Slug Ballet. So I'm doing SOMETHING right.

Watching the news with an ice cream pop. Because I can only handle so much adulting at once.

Fun fact: Elon Musk could pay each person on that list a salary of $100K for 10 years and still have money left over.

I mean, judging by their treatment of medical research funding, they don't seem to be too fond of "medic" either.

I'm convinced he doesn't know "Gulf" and "Golf" are two different words.

WTF even is this? How is this something he really thinks could happen? Delusional old man.

Portland cannabis businesses argue federal law preempts Oregon pot labor law, Measure 119 U.S. District Judge Michael H. Simon said he was struggling with the "ambiguity" of Measure 119.

“'If we have a state law that’s preempted by federal law … our Constitution says it’s invalid,' he said."

But, like, not the laws about whether or not recreational cannabis is legal...

Feds Threaten Oregon Transportation Funding Over DEI and Driver’s License Policies Oregon is one of many states that offer licenses to undocumented immigrants. Transportation Sec. Sean Duffy disapproves.

@nytimes.com I'm still mad. Maybe madder, even.

You know, I didn't want my Bluesky account to turn into a politics dump. But I also need to openly acknowledge that external, avoidable events are damaging my mental health. It's not my fault, or yours (unless your name rhymes with Seal-on Tusk or Ronald Rump). #strongertogether

Please continue to fight for this. My child needs this. My child's friends need this. The parents of these kids need this.

So... This guy has good enough aim to get a green pepper in the chimney EVERY NIGHT? Seems like that would limit the suspect pool a bit.

Elon Musk makes stunning claim after Tesla profits plummet: 'If the ship of America goes down, Tesla will go with it' Tesla's net income dropped 71% year over year.

America is but a casualty in Elon's quest of... whatever the hell he's doing.

If they respected the rule of law, yes.

FDA head falsely claims no scientists laid off, as agency shutters food safety labs "That just made me so mad," one laid-off FDA scientist said.

For an administration that seems to care so much about babies, you'd think they'd keep the scientists testing baby formula at the FDA.

I wish RFK Jr would spend some time eliminating REAL public health crises like school shootings, instead of wasting time trying to "fix" #ActuallyAutistic people who aren't broken.
