Progressive, Humanist, Generation Jones. I have no idea what I’m doing here - why I’m spinning on this planet. But as I fumble around with all the rest of you I hope to have made something, somewhere just a little bit better.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

This is entirely to please Trump, who has voiced criticism of 60 Minutes under the new owners, who are the definition of rank amatuers, emphasis on rank. This Stephen Miller interview suggestion is idiotic in the context of this story and shows a startling lack of sophistication or smarts.

Putting a power parched non journalist — who has zero experience in investigative reporting — in charge of real reporters usually ends like this: ‘60 Minutes’ Pulled a Segment. A Correspondent Calls It ‘Political.’ www.nytimes.com/2025/12/21/b...

Is AI inherently bad? Of course not. The question is: WHO controls it & for what purpose? Does anyone believe that the richest people on Earth are investing hundreds of billions in AI to improve life for ordinary people, eliminate poverty & solve global warming? I doubt it.

Just saw this for the first time while eating at a small Mexican restaurant. Music videos of Latina music were playing on a TV in the corner. The music breaks & this pops up on the screen. I can’t begin to tell you how particularly vile it was to hear this in the setting of a Mexican restaurant.

I keep thinking about this moment at the White House as Trump berates Zelenskyy and how Zelenskyy knew all the while the plan he had in the works for the epic drone attack. Imagine how he was biting his tongue as Trump told him he didn’t have the cards.

Trump & Vance act like little bitches and gang up on Zelenskyy at White House meeting as Trump claims that Zelenskyy doesn’t have the cards.

I’m just waiting for Elon to go too far, say something a little too revealing and then delete it quickly. I know there are people who are ready to pounce and get that screen shot. Don’t let us down, Elon. We know you can do it.

I just heard former Senate staffer Gabe Garbowit say that EVERY sign at EVERY protest needs to say “IMPEACH, CONVICT & REMOVE” and nothing else. Without a clear, specific demand, Congress can just ignore us. We have to be crystal clear about what we want them to do! PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!!!
