Fuck Donald Trump
Fuck ICE
Listen to the victims, they'll tell you the Epstein list.

Feeling morally superior today as I realize I was never part of a racist pro-Hitler and rape mocking group chat, never helped to cover up a pedophilia ring, never supported starving my fellow citizens, never supported taking away healthcare from my fellow citizens and I never fucked my car.

He's not opening the government because he doesn't want those secret files revealed. It's not complicated.

There already was an “I Hate America” rally. It was on January 6th, 2021. The President spoke at it.

If you make jokes about gas chambers, rape and slavery, it's just 30 year old kids being kids.

If you don't mourn Charlie Kirk enough, you're a terrorist who must be fired from your job immediately.

The GOP’s blaming Democrats for the shutdown. If Democrats actually had that much power, you’d have paid parental leave and free insulin, not furloughs.

I’m old enough to remember when we had a system of checks & balances that involved Congress, when Congress controlled the purse and legislated, and the president respected the Constitution & rule of law. I’m old enough to remember when a U.S. president wouldn’t want to be King George or a dictator.

"You were fine yesterday."

And doing something yesterday is why I feel like this today.

Sometimes going to a doctor about my symptoms feels like I'm preparing to present a case in court.

I've recently been reminded that at least some of the immigrants that Abbot sent the Texas national guard to kidnap, are the same immigrants Abbott flew to Chicago in the dead of winter in flip flops and a t shirt to overwhelm the city. Instead Chicago residents clothed, fed and resettled them

AOC: You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to keep people from getting poisoned, from dangerous chemicals

You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to bring down the cost of housing

If they want to say that that's a Democratic priority, they're right,

Thought I was having a good-faith discussion with someone until they asked me if I've been sorted into my Hogwarts house yet. In that case, fuck JK Rowling and fuck you.

And I literally stated that twice, so what's your point?

EcoScholar (She/They) @ecoscholar.bsky.social · 8h

And I specifically said *I* could get by on that, not that everyone could, or were you not reading to comprehend but simply reply?

I know I personally could manage on like $1,200/mo
Obviously, that might vary for others depending on their rent/utilities etc.

trump said today that 'very few' people were going to participate in the No Kings protests.

We need to prove him wrong. In astonishing numbers, we need to prove him wrong.

Thank you for your attention to this matter💙✌🏻💙

I believe the south side Chicago building was “full of Tren de Aragua gang members” about as much as I believe the Venezuelan boats are filled with “narcoterrotists”.

The regime will say anything to justify unreasonable, and even lethal, force.

Zohran Mamdani uses his appearance on Fox News to "speak directly to the president," since "he might be watching right now."

Mamdani looks straight into the Fox camera as he says this >>>

If you’ve recently awoken from a coma, the Speaker of the House is stalling the swearing in of a newly elected member from Arizona because she would be the deciding vote in the discharge petition to release the Epstein files, which would be trouble for his boss.

You’re caught up.

Ps: Welcome back.

Neurologically speaking, there's no such thing as 'useless' subjects or 'rip-off' degrees

Insisting we should only teach useful subjects is like saying science should only do research that gives positive results

If you honestly believe that's how anything works, *your* education was the wasted one

“Not going to be great” is quite the understatement by Fox here.

Tweet by FactPost (@factpostnews) reading: “Fox: The tariffs, 10% for lumber, 25% for cabinets, vanities, upholstered furniture. On January 1st, the tariff for cabinets and vanities increase to 50%, all the rest of the furniture to 30%. The cost of building materials has increased 34%. There is a concern that this is not going to be great for the home buying industry.” Below is a Fox Business screenshot showing a reporter in a lumber workshop with the headline “New tariffs on furniture & lumber take effect.”
