Yeah, you cannot imagine how hard it is to get someone to cover my shift on the space laser when I have to deal with the weather machine! 😂

Amazingly brave ladies evacuate dogs and cats from Kupiansk, Kharkiv region, under fire. Despite the danger, they try to save every life.

The road is covered with nets against Russian drones.

Hell even beyond the Holocaust is the Jewish pale in the Eastern European countries

There is the fact that Jewish people needed the Jewish vacation guide which was the inspiration for the Black American green book bc they too were targeted for lynchings and being killed by Nazis in America

I found this little gem a few weeks ago, a film in which the Grand Mufti does a Heil Hitler salute when they met. encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/f...

We are bowing before an aspiring Nazi dictator, as the Germans did. Trump met w Fuentes long ago. Jan 6 they brought Nazi flags & slogans to the Capitol as they tried to kill VP & Congress members, & assaulted police. We are enabling GOP goals of war, genocide, destruction of US unless stopped.

You mean the same shit Kamala was but you were too busy bitching about the price of eggs? I told yall, two women could win statewide tomorrow night appealing to the center but these dumb fucks are determined to make this unremarkable turd the story.

Oh yes we all are creating propaganda about mamdani because we have nothing better to do, get a brain, sheep

I'm sure he appreciates you trying to protect him

It seems obvious if not indisputable that people in the throes of a major depressive episode or anxiety attack are less likely to vote. When the dread gremlin pokes your frontal lobe with a carving fork, isn’t filling in bubbles at a fluorescent-lit school gym (triggering!) just about the last thing you’d like to do? Even if you already have a ballot at home, do you honestly want to sit down at a table and slog through the endless list of candidates and (especially for the beleaguered Californians among us) byzantine ballot measures? No! You do not want to Google yet another inscrutable proposition about dialysis regulations. You’d rather watch The Summer I Turned Pretty and cry! As the sun sets in the middle of the afternoon and the needling fuzz of depression wraps around your brain, the very notion of expending time and energy to participate in our doomed democracy seems like a sick joke.

Every year, the end of Daylight Saving Time exacerbates depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders—an uncontroversial and well-established effect. People experiencing despair are less likely to vote. "Falling back" just before Election Day is really bad for democracy! slate.com/news-and-pol...

In fairness, it does not appear that anyone responsible for our current clock-management regime intended to create this insidious side effect. The unfortunate situation arose after Congress extended DST in 2005, adding three weeks in the spring and one week in the fall. There is credible evidence that lawmakers added that bonus week in autumn at the behest of candy companies, which believed that children would consume more treats on Halloween if the sun stayed out an hour later. But this change had an unintended consequence: November elections are almost always held on the Tuesday after we set our clocks back, thrusting voters into darkness an hour earlier, confusing our circadian rhythms. You may not notice this—but perhaps, on some level, you do? Every presidential election since 2005’s DST expansion has arrived two days after the time change. Have you ever felt, walking to the polls or watching returns, that it’s oddly black, bleak, depressing outside? Are your memories of Election Days past (I’m looking at you, 2016) set against the backdrop of too-early nightfall that seems, frankly, like the end of the world? Mine certainly are. And I think this torpor is having an impact on voters that could depress turnout and swing elections.

When Congress pushed back the end of Daylight Saving Time in 2005, it ensured that our annual plunge in to darkness will almost always occur just before the November election.

I am CONVINCED this is voter suppression—quite possibly to the persistent benefit of Republicans! slate.com/news-and-pol...

Brett Kavanaugh's behavior during today's second oral arguments has been incredibly obnoxious and rude. He is so eager to kill a service member's lawsuit against a negligent government contractor that he keeps interrupting other justices, raising his voice, and getting emotional. Weird and erratic.

That's funny, she isn't talented enough to write a book and she keeps bouncing checks, so she hates JK Rowling, there are lots of reasons to hate her but those aren't it

Thread. Nancy Mace is mentally not well and it needs to be said by people in a position to get her some help.

Trump moves to block public servants from loan forgiveness based on ideology Those who work with undocumented immigrants, provide gender transition care for minors or publicly protest could be blocked from student loan forgiveness under a new rule.

The Trump administration released a new rule aiming to block public servants from loan forgiveness based on ideology.

This is yet another alarming move to silence dissent and punish those who don't fall in line.

Trump's argument for the tarrifs is to me basically "It's necessary for my greatness and for Republicans to hold power" is nearly fullproof with his 6 co-conspirators.

We could do worse than have Page Six and People Magazine join the resistance.

"A half-dozen Head Start programs never received grants that were anticipated in October, but there are now 140 programs that have not received their annual infusion of federal funding. All told, the programs have capacity to assist 65,000 preschoolers and expectant parents."

That idiot is in Texas, when we were little we played with a kid each summer there until one year he told us we had to be Jehovah's witnesses, not Jews, or he couldn't play with us anymore

Russell Vought, Trump’s Shadow President From the wholesale gutting of federal agencies to the ongoing government shutdown, Russell Vought has drawn the road map for Trump’s second term. Vought has consolidated power to an extent that…

Russ Vought set out to ensure a second Trump term would not be hampered by checks and balances: “I don’t want President Trump having to lose a moment of time having fights in the Oval Office about whether something is legal or doable or moral.”

Tighter air pollution rules were finalized last year. Trump's EPA is rolling them back.

For years people made fun of big tech for inventing things that already exist and they responded with their magnum opus: inventing fascism. Incredible work

No single industry is more responsible for the dire straits we find ourselves in than big tech and its gang of billionaire cartoon villains. If you're a Democrat and you still want to play nice with these guys you're nuts

As a kid who came from the coal mines of Kentucky, and spent most of my childhood in a lower working class (or worse) family, I agree with every word.
