Thank god we saved them by not voting for the black lady.

I’m trying to picture what the media coverage would look like if Joe Biden just spent some time wandering around on the roof yelling about nuclear missiles.

Question for Mike Flood: With $450 million being allocated to Alligator Alcatraz, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the tax payers have to pay for a fascist country?

Finally, a united nation.

…this is…

I mean I find it genuinely upsetting. But his father created it, so maybe it’s not my place to say?

ELIZABETH WARREN: What Zohran is saying is 'I want people to be able to afford to live in NYC'

FABER: But raising taxes in order to do it?

WARREN: Oh my goodness! Oh dear! Are you worried that billionaires are going to go hungry?

the Elizabeth Warren CNBC hit that triggered Trump: "Trump ran for office saying he'd lower costs on day 1. Cost of groceries are up, cost of housing is up, healthcare is up. And where is Trump? He's passing a signature bill to throw people off healthcare so he can do tax cuts for billionaires."

This is an important point

Much in DC in its formative years as our capital was deliberately “plain”

Because our government was supposedly not going to reflect the excess & exclusion of Old World royalty

The White House is stately & straightforward as a statement of principle

You know.
No kings.

My dahlias haven’t bloomed since I brought them home. 😭😭😭

OK.

Except EoW dropped two days ago. Where was the push?

Wow, you’ve really laid out your argument well here.

I picked up a prescription yesterday and they did not pay me to take it.

RIGHT?!

And boy does THAT suck when they just introduced Kamala Khan, and Monica Rambeau, and Shang-Chi and Xu Xialing, and America Chavez, and Riri Williams.

Like I thought RDJ was dumb stunt casting but maybe it’s actually worse than that.

And yes, I know that F4 stars Pedro Pascal.

But Pedro is playing either white or white passing and almost everyone else in that movie is white, so it really feels like Marvel is leaning away from diverse leads.

Damn. I had no idea Eyes of Wakanda was released this week.

Marvel really isn’t promoting the black titles.

Which is CRAZY because everything Ryan Coogler has done with Wakanda has been great and his name alone is a selling point.

It feels like the online angry white dude mob scared Feige.

Just saw Fantastic Four again and I had forgotten the perfectly awful folk song during the credits.

@eriktorenberg 1d ♡ Erik Torenberg A Nothing has worked in fixing birth rates. Financial incentives didn't work (Hungary), Nordic socialism didn't work (Scandinavia), restricting women's rights didn't work (Iran), totalitarianism didn't work (North Korea), doing nothing didn't work (Latin America). What will work? 4.4K 1.8K 16K 2.5M ♡ JEFFERSONS VIOLIN @Rust_And_Decay Follow Restricting women's rights AND forced breeding will work. No one wants to admit it, but that's it. Ban college for all fertile young ladies until they have a minimum of one child; then, after two, they can use their degree and enter the workforce, in my opinion. Build massive daycares on college campuses and make part-time jobs for girls not in class to work in the daycare. If they have 3 or 4 kids, make more incentives like the family doesn't ever pay income taxes.

Notice that even after they make women incubators, we still have to work.

It’s always “let the free market decide” until the free market decides they suck.

for many of the worst people in our politics, the only real belief they have is that it should be illegal for us not to like them

Did you get yelled at by the talking gargoyle at baggage claim? He’s a trip!

I love imagining a world in which Trump illegally takes power for a third term but follows the law in every other respect.

Oh.

There’s also a fiction podcast about it called Escaping Denver.

but daddy I love him

I was treated similarly, but the attacks on certain creators with a hue was noticably more egregious. But the attacks were consistent as an effort to make people be quiet. @Tori.Grier.4life I’m so so... TikTok video by Priya Xisting

This is a great breakdown of why I don’t really fuck with the Never Kamala crowd.

So then why won’t they leave us alone?

Pay attention. His energy swings are massive now. Keep score. He's either hyper, yelling at, and interrupting people he's speaking with, or he's subdued, rambling nonsensically, and/or nodding off. There's a half day in between for recalibration.

He's decompensating - in real time.
