we are but frogs slowly boiling to death

I also don't think we've spent enough time on how much damage Mark Zuckerberg has personally done.

Manufacturing a crisis out of thin air in order to consolidate power in the nation's capital. What could go wrong

Introducing... Smol Paul's bliss face

usually if you ask experts why an empire fell they’ll say it’s nuanced and multifaceted, so i think it’s kind of cool that with America future historians will get to just say like “oh they took the idiot train to moronsville”

Shout out to the colleagues who ask why I bother studying a settled issue like women’s suffrage.

there are so many open layups and somehow dems can’t make them. republicans are literally pulling cancer treatment from children and they can’t message on that??? like what the fuck are we doing here

fucking hysterical to hear the 'poor little genAI industry' crying about being bullied with "copyright law" as if it's some novel, untested area of jurisprudence.

If you don't want to be sued by 7 million people don't steal from 7 million people, that's a pretty simple legal concept

The social media accounts for federal law enforcement agencies keep posting the exact kinds of things you'd report to federal law enforcement agencies if a normal citizen posted them.

So much of right wing media just generates outrage about nonsense, I would love liberal leaders whose posture was like "I'll give you something real to cry about." Instead of "Mr Potato Head Is Muslim??" I want them freaking out about a 90% inheritance tax

The newspapers are not making a big deal of this today. This is a big deal. Someone shot into a Federal building repeatedly, fueled by misinformation and politics. It should be front page news across the country.

Another horrific series of press rights abuses tonight at hands of LAPD.

Initial reports are 4 journalists injured (several bleeding), 3 cameras broken, 5 put in zip ties.

All in defiance of state law, a judge's order, and chief's signed order.

LAPD can't police itself. Maybe the judge will.

LAPD fucked us all up, multiple journos bloodied, aggressive push, video when able

The number of people endangered by the selfish stupidity of refusing vaccinations is absurd. Babies aren't eligible for measles vaccination until they're 6-12 months old and spreading measles presents a mortal danger to them

I’ll take good news where I can get it. every trumper wrongfully detained is a tiny measure of justice

There is a concerted effort by this administration to forcibly remove the notion of trans people existing in public life. That’s why it’s so frustrating when democrats insist on meeting anti-trans crusaders on talking points like sports where they are. This is where they’re at. They want us gone.

I’d prefer that we give a shit about having concentration camps at all but I guess the next best thing is getting mad that the concentration camp is not environmentally friendly

This really feels like a defining post of our time

this story was made for you

Concentration camp

i bought champagne at costco because it has to happen eventually and i don’t want to be caught unprepared

Buttigieg has doubled down on his “leave the issue of trans kids in sports up to communities.”

To reiterate: This means leaving civil rights up to localities, abdicating the role of the federal government.

School districts controlled by Moms for Liberty extremists will be free to discriminate.

Yep, it’s pathetic

mRNA vaccines are so close to magic as to be basically indistinguishable, and the administration is stopping them because they worship death.

This is it. Freeze it in amber. Hang it in a museum. The ultimate expression of the NYT and the elite class behind it.

The utter moral failure of ceding power to Trump? Acceptable ... if it is done in a clever, savvy way!

Hitler on the Roof

the issue was never that conservatives couldn't gain access to elite spaces; the issue is that once they got there they didn't receive the level of deference and respect they felt they deserved
