On the Capitol lawn in Richmond VA today.

The image shows a large government building with classical architectural features, including tall white columns and a triangular pediment. In front of the building, on a green grassy area, are large, free-standing letters that spell out "TAX THE RICH." Several people are gathered on the grass and around the letters, some appear to be holding signs, with the clear blue sky above them. The building has an American flag flying at the top of the pediment.

If the robot at the self-checkout line is going to interrupt me three times to call for staff to come verify that I am checking things out correctly and not stealing, might I suggest Kroger simply have a human clerk do the checkout instead and save us some time?

I expect Mike Johnson isn’t aware the President released an A.I. video of the President shitting on Americans. He been very busy avoiding swearing in a duly elected Representative.

Pondering joining the no kings call to try and steer the next marches towards the closest ICE detention center

Helps if you move from symbolic marches to symbolic objective marches (at least) too. Like “go to congress and nail a 500k signature petition to the door” kind of symbolic

I'm convinced Mike Johnson goes on the Sunday shows solely to piss off Bluesky.

The president of the United States of America raped children. And somehow 70 million stupid “Christian” motherfuckers didn’t think that was a dealbreaker.

KARL: I mean, you could swear in Adelita Grijalva tomorrow, right?

MIKE JOHNSON: No, not tomorrow. We couldn't. We wouldn't.

It wasn’t some normal user that posted that diarrhea bombing A.I., to be rightfully shamed for being insulting. It was the President of the United States of America. That’s what he thinks of working Americans. That’s his level of concern for the dignity of his office.

Mike Johnson: "We're fighting for healthcare as well. Not just in word but in deed. We put in the one big beautiful bill, real reforms to Medicaid to make it work better."

(The bill in fact cuts nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid.)

I have a question about vampires. If a vampire gets invited into a home by the dwellers and then another vampire comes to the home, can the first vampire invite him in or does it have to be the home dwellers again?

I know he won the popular vote this time but I genuinely don’t think he has a large enough base to get away with posting a video of himself shitting on American cities and people.

For a dude who supposedly studies dictators he’s skipping over the part where he controls people using fake love.

I have started dating a man who is very nice but does not share my politics. Any advice?
"You just have to get the fuck out of there. What are you thinking? He must be incredibly attractive-looking. I mean, what is it? Is he tall? Does he remind you of your father? There's only two kinds of politics these days, and you can't breathe the same air as the other kind."
