If they are doing this to white people in broad daylight imagine what they are doing to non-white people in detention facilities.

Renee Good tried this tactic. Smiling, “I’m not mad at you bro”

Didn’t work.

end of the day I just want to quietly work my nice little reasonably satisfying job and then go home to hang out with my partner and cats and play some fun little vidya games, and I am full of incandescent fucking rage at the people who insist on making that a morally insufficient set of activities.

Listen to the crowd at Golden 1 Center. The way Kings fans show up for their team is next level. Sellout crowd for a 4-13 team with their star injured. Kings fans are built different.

We ran through the tape on field efforts here, but organizers locally have also known Prop50 was in the bag for a while now.

Californians. Are. Pissed.
if you’re outside california, this seemed like such a foregone conclusion that in the past couple weeks the gop stopped running ads and newsom told dems they didn’t need to donate to the “yes on 50” effort anymore

So block the official government accounts and don't do any trolling or harassment of those accounts, it's exactly what they are hoping you'll do. Remember that the people who own and operate this place are NOT your friends in fact they fucking hate you, so keep your shit tight.

Last night’s dinner with Trump and Big Tech wasn’t a policy meeting. It was basically 'The Bachelor,' except instead of roses, the prize was the president’s approval.
All the President’s Tech CEOs
At a White House dinner Thursday night, America’s tech executives put on an uncanny display of fealty to Donald Trump.

This is the MINIMUM - the bare MINIMUM - of what people in positions of authority need to be saying every goddamn day.
Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.

If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me — not time or political circumstance — from making sure you face justice under our constitutional rule of law.

Some folks haven’t spent decades fighting a GOP-dominated government and it shows…

The GOP always lies. They are corrupted by big donors. They cover up both lies and corruption. They never admit to any wrongdoing. They project their illegal activity on to the other side.

Rinse. Repeat.

do you ever stare at the ceiling and think about how the worldwide scientific establishment did the impossible and created a COVID vaccine in under a year and the response of the general public has been to go on an unstoppable rampage to destroy science and scientists

Decades of mechanistic talk about university degrees as if they were bundles of 'skills' and 'prep' are about to be proved completely wrong (obviously). Want to get a real boost? Do History or English.
