I can't get over the fact that they scheduled a televised Cabinet meeting, hyped it as a major event, planned it all out to show how active and in control Trump is ... and then he dozed off in the middle of it. Repeatedly.

I would rather have a world where we all trust each other and accept that a few people will take advantage of it than a world where folks have to perform disability constantly in order to get the help they need. Let kids have an extra 30 minutes on the test, jesus fucking christ

Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

The President is actively dying right next to his team of simps yelling about what a Big Strong Leader Man he is. Just sitting there, eyes closed, croaking in front of our eyes.
Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

Trump on Tim Walz: "I think the man is a grossly incompetent man. I thought that from the day I watched JD destroy him in the debate. I was saying, 'Who's more incompetent, that man or my man?' I had a man and he had a man. They were both incompetent."

There’s something in the lawyer and politico brain that treats rulings and policy like a chess match where the value of winning is “I’m better at this than my opponent” rather than the effect it has on real people.
the cover story in the latest issue of my college alumni magazine is a glowing profile of a Republican judge who is apparently is a contender for a future Supreme Court seat...

Women on the Internet don’t need me to tell them how bad things are, but men need to see this and know it’s out there.
Incredibly weird behavior from a man who has previously sexually harassed me. AI makes it even easier to spread low-effort misogyny, so I'm not surprised the online right is using it so much that it's melting their brains.

Exhausting, but expected.

Religion reporting as a specialty has been in decline since it was mine, 20 years ago. It got shoved off on people who didn't know the difference between religion and belief, who thought all houses of worship were "churches," who were covering 40 other things. And the religious right is very savvy.

I think another weird facet to this is if you say "I was driving today & there are so many terrible, dangerous drivers," people tend to be like "ugh, I know" but if you say "I was cycling today & there are so many terrible, dangerous drivers," they furiously disagree & imply it was your own fault.
Something I've been thinking about a lot lately is how when a driver does something wrong, the public and media don't smear all drivers as reckless assholes. But when a cyclist — and especially an e-biker — does something wrong, all bicyclists get attacked and blamed.

Boys need more friends who are girls, not girlfriends.
"the issue isn’t that we need more 'boy-friendly' reforms. It’s that boys are socialized to compete only with boys and to read girls’ success as illegitimate or emasculating. The result is dissonance, resentment, and disengagement for boys—and hostile climates for girls."
