You are not alone in these thoughts. We need a support group.

Maybe not in the WNBA, but the percentages likely would change in the other leagues.

Only 24 states are represented in this sample, though. It’s likely that many players are registered in their off-season homes.

Post from the Department of State: "We do not want allies to be shackled by guilt and shame"

This message from the US State Department about "not wanting allies to be shackled by guilt and shame" is a pretty direct call-out to the German far-right argument that Germany has spent too long feeling guilty about the Holocaust, and needs to move on and stop doing remembrance.

They gassed three generations of people - grandmothers, mothers, young children, all scrupulously nonviolent.

The use of tear gas in warfare is banned by international law, in case you didn't know. But it's perfectly legal to use it on toddlers.

Deeply fucking tired actually of how every time there's a Republican in office things are five alarm fire bad and people are ripping their hair out in agony, and every time there's a Democrat in office things are actually really good, and our brain damaged voting public insists the choice is hard.

A Stark Warning About the 2026 Election, with Robert Kagan Can American democracy come back from the brink?

A Stark Warning About the 2026 Election From Robert Kagan

2 died of Ebola: They said Obama should resign.

4 died in Benghazi: They had Hillary testify for 11 hours, held 33 hearings, and launched a 4-year probe.

881,776 Covid deaths, an armed insurrection & theft of classified documents: They cheered, and elected Trump as dictator.

HEADS UP: The U.S. Postal Service quietly changed how postmarks work. Mail is no longer automatically postmarked with the date you drop it off. Instead, the postmark now reflects the date it’s first processed by an automated sorting facility — which can be days later. If you mail something right at a deadline, the official postmark could be later than your drop-off date and may be considered late. If mailing date matters to you, go inside the post office and request a hand-stamped postmark.

🤔 What reason would they have to make people distrust the postal service?!

America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth.

The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.

When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

American voters proved in 2024 that they are idiots.

Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

It's International Anti-Corruption Day.

Some of Trump’s most blatant acts of corruption are well-known by now—the crypto coin; the pardons for friends and donors.

Less known are a series of corrupt policy moves that are raising costs for you and your family.

Some examples ⬇️

Most Americans agree we need to get money out of politics. If that takes a constitutional amendment, then that's what we have to do. And if that's going to take years, then it's all the more reason to begin pushing now.

Republicans scramble for health care plan, as Democrats eye midterm battle — CNN Republicans in Washington successfully defused the 43-day government shutdown without surrendering to Democrats’ demands to spend billions more to offset spiking health insurance costs.

Republicans have had 15 years to fix or replace the ACA.
The truth is: they don’t want to do either. They own the healthcare system and drug industry.
They get paid to keep it broken.

While the government reopened without healthcare protections that millions desperately need, extremists were busy with something else: trying to gut gun industry oversight and plotting to advance a national concealed carry mandate through the House that would put every community in America at risk.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Yes, please!

Me too!

He’s not paying them — we are.

“Trump’s budget proposal called for cutting funding for public housing, housing vouchers and other rental assistance by 43%.”

Shaun King backing up Tucker Carlson that Jews killed Jesus.

It is important to state this bluntly (I should actually write a piece about it): Antisemitism is close to getting mainstream. One thing preventing it on the right is Trump's support of Israel, but Carlson and others are pushing it.
