Fun fact: Placing an orange traffic cone on the hood of Waymo vehicles makes them stop where they are and they will not move until the cone is removed... Only saying this so that people know what not to do when they see a robo car driving by... Yeah...

Dear @govpritzker.illinois.gov -

You’re either in or you’re out.

You can’t fight national fascism while you facilitate local fascism.

Choose this day whom you will serve.

The Rev’d Dr Woolf and many more have already.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov I want you to watch this video of me slammed to the ground- why are you allowing this to happen to people you know are on the right side of history. They tied my hands behind my back and when I asked them to be loosened because I was going numb they said, β€œSTFU.”

Trump and Pete Hegseth just killed three more people in another bombing, this time in the Pacific. The dead were said to be part of a "designated terrorist organization," which is itself utterly absurd. No evidence provided.

POT BROTHERS AT LAW ONE MINUTE TIP OF THE DAY
YouTube video by Pot Brothers at Law POT BROTHERS AT LAW ONE MINUTE TIP OF THE DAY

If you are stopped by law enforcement, here is the script:

1. "Why did you stop me?"

2. "I'm not discussing my day."

3. "Am I being detained?"

4. "I invoke the fifth."

Then you say NOTHING else at all

NOTHING

I personally know 4 restaurant managers (2 are kitchen, 2 are general) here in Ashevile, and all of them have confirmed they will not be serving ICE at their restaurants and will trespass them if they refuse to elave

This should alarm everyone.

On Thursday, Florida, by unanimous vote, became the first state in the country to adopt β€œThe Phoenix Declaration: An American Vision for Education.”
It was written by the Heritage Foundation, the same group behind Project 2025.

THIS IS INDOCTRINATION

A knock-on effect of Trump suddenly looking weak is people feel emboldened to push back against his flunkies too. Turns out the media knows exactly how to do this when they want to

It's important to note, as I have multiple times, that it's possible to be Jewish - as I am - and still condemn Israel for genocidal acts. In fact, the history of Judaism makes it clear Jews are obligated to speak out. Never again *means* never again. #zachor

THAT'S LITERALLY HOW THE SUBSIDIES & ACA EXCHANGES WORK ALREADY.

CONSUMERS ARE INFORMED BY COMPARING POLICIES ON THE ACA EXCHANGES, THEN THEY PURCHASE ONE AND THE GOVERNMENT PAYS SOME OR ALL OF THE COST OF THAT POLICY.

Reproductive rights was one of the Biden Administration’s signature policies. And Roe v Wade had been law for almost 50 years. The Supreme Court β€œinterfered” with it.

We didn’t forget who you are.

You still owe @davidhogg.bsky.social an apology for the awful shit you said to him. What about that reporter you kicked? Or the stocks you traded? That’s a bit more than β€œtoxic politics.”

"Autism isn't an excuse."

No it's not. It's an explanation.

"No. You're using it as an excuse. You should have known the thing you did was unacceptable."

Except I didn't. And I'm explaining why.

Hi. It's me. I'm here to gently ask if you've been giving yourself grace? Patience? Self-care?

You've got this. You are enough, and you deserve all the good things.

KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true?

HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart--

KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.

/2 The article and headline don’t arise in a vacuum, they arise on the front page of the New York Times, which has selected a very specific way to approach moral and political issues, characterized by detachment, both-sidesism, and trolling.

Massie: "I would remind my Republican colleagues who are decided how to vote, Donald Trump can protect you in red districts right now by giving you an endorsement, but by 2030, he's not gonna be the president and you will have voted to protect pedophiles if you don't vote to release those files."
