Weird, because that implies that each and every one of them knows that they’re breaking the law.

so much is wrong here, but i’m stuck on the fact that the people who are brutalizing immigrants at court houses and schools couldn’t pass the US citizenship exam.

I’m far from the first person to ask this, but what β€œtrade secrets” does Georgia Power even have? We already know how electricity is made AND they have no competitors.

I don’t see this ending well. One incorrect piece of information could ruin someone’s crop for the year.

i feel like the bluesky team, or at least maybe jay in particular, has an attitude that everyone hates them forever irredeemably even though most people i've spoken to about this are disappointed, upset, and bewildered, with a strong sentiment that we'd just like them to stop fucking around already.

i’m not gonna put the trump tweet into the skyline because no one needs to hear everything he says but it’s the most pathetic piss baby shit ever & he can do a lot of damage on the way down, but he’s a walking sock bulging with the gelid contents of a cracker barrel trash can & we are going to win.

I will say that as a woman in a red state, I would have preferred Harris to what we currently have and don’t have sympathy for people who chose not to use their right to vote to defend democracy. Because that is what I believe we would still have the remnants of under President Harris β€” a democracy

My mantra lately has been β€œTwo things can be true at once.” The Harris campaign flubbed the messaging toward the end, and simultaneously there are leftists who, in their eternal quest for the perfect candidate, get in their own way by rejecting a good candidate. Two things can be true.

I am listening to the interview now and thus far, I feel like Sharlet’s take is disingenuous. I don’t know anything about him and therefore feel uncomfortable calling him a misogynist, but the discourse around Harris sometimes reeks of misogyny

Why do they keep saying Charlie Kirk was an advocate for free speech when he made a hit list of professors who didn’t say what he liked? I just don’t get it.

Yeah as near as I can tell the sum total of "trans ideology" is wrapped up as "we exist"

Made calls to both senators! I left voicemail messages with my full street address so they could verify that I am a constituent.

hi, cis folks!

if you said you’d stand with trans people, we need you now.

the FY26 budget bill gets a vote by 9/30. the GOP wants to jam a ban on federal funding for ALL health services that provide trans care for ANY AGE.

we need you to call senators: reps.fyi

more info & script downthread.🧡

Charlie Kirk Was Not Practicing Politics the Right Way The mainstream media seems entirely uninterested in explaining Charlie Kirk's work.

say it all plainly. it shouldn't be hard or controversial. this is this man's legacy www.404media.co/charlie-kirk...

Obligatory β€œI don’t condone political violence” β€” and I don’t β€” but Charlie Kirk was a real piece of shit. I didn’t wish death on him but I sure won’t fucking miss that man.

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life.

The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

If a pregnant woman is brain dead, in a coma, and no longer has rights to make decisions about the pregnancy according to E. Bruenig, that means we don’t have a say in what happens to our organs and corpses after we die. We are public property upon death. Quite an argument!
