Hard to argue with this, tho I'm honestly not sure what action Dems can take. Also not sure what action your average Jo(e) can take. I mean, obviously, donating funds, voting, contacting reps, but otherwise...? Ideas and suggestions welcome!

Sounds about right. Wish we'd known in time about #CongressmanKeanJr #TomKeanJr #NJ07 #AWOL #CongressMIA
“When things go wrong, someone must be held responsible—and that someone is never Donald Trump.” Eloquently stated in a single sentence: an explanation for the absurdity that is our government.
All I saw was the headline (story posted on reddit) and I literally said out loud (I'm alone in this room), "So, TV? That's TV." #FFS #ReinventingTheWheel #FullCircle www.techspot.com/news/113374-...
Netflix and Disney are now considering free, ad-supported streaming
In a recent investor call, Disney CEO Josh D'Amaro confirmed that the company is actively exploring a potential free offering for its Disney+ streaming service. D'Amaro, who...

The "Kean Act" probably wouldn't enjoy the same recognition, but the principle still applies #RepresentativeKean #CongressmanKean #NJ07
Some good stuff here. Especially intrigued by: "Arguably the only reason we don't use #ProportionalRepresentation is because it wasn't used anywhere in the world at the time of [America's] founding ... And we just kept doing elections the same way." www.npr.org/2026/08/10/n...
Voters are sick of the 2-party system. A new poll shows they're open to big changes
A new poll shows support for moving the U.S. toward proportional representation, a system that elects multiple representatives in a single district in rough proportion to a party's vote share.

Seriously. Related: all the AI-based cost-cutting in the world will be useless if so many people are laid off that they can no longer afford your product 🤷 We need a new system -- is #UBI maybe (part of) the answer? #UniversalBasicIncome
Hey @adobe.com -- if I've already clicked your AI taskbar away, please don't make it reappear not even five effing minutes later so that I have to hide it again. I promise you, if I need it, I will find it. Thanks, Someone who has cursed the software for several reasons in the last 10 minutes
I'm all set for #NJ07! Are you ready? #VoteFromAbroad

Sames. I had a stress dream about #ClimateChange that involved the escaping of CO3 into space. Is that even a thing

Vaccines are so effective they created an entire generation of people who think the diseases they prevented weren’t a big deal.
I believe much the same could be said of #RepTomKeanJr. You can't just not show up to work. That's grounds for termination. As a human being, #TomKeanJr (Rep for #NJ07) of course deserves full medical care and the time he needs to recover. As does every other person in the US and across the globe.
Qasim Rashid, Esq.@qasimrashid.com · last mo.Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in 25 days in the hospital. Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare. The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, and against guaranteed paid leave, is now getting all three.
Their goal is to create so much chaos and so many crises that it starts to feel like nothing you do makes a difference. Don’t believe it. Every action matters. Keep showing up and remember the resistance will prevail!
Maybe it's just because the late night shows have been on a break recently, but the overexposure hasn't felt as dire recently. Still, the sentiment holds. #TiredOfTrump
Slowly, slowly making my way through the #BookOfProverbs. Both upsetting and comforting that certain ills have been around for so many millennia. 17:5 jumped out at me today
Yet another too-short short story: #TheAudit by #OlivieBlake. Humorous and touching! I think I fell in love a little bit. Here's one of my favorite lines: "The sun is streaming in and I can only think of pastries." #booksky #scifi
My only complaint about #JenniferHudak 's short story #TheWitchTrap is that it's too short! 😅 Would love for the narrative to continue & find out more about the people. And the #ConcealedShoes index was cool! #Northampton #NorthamptonMuseumsandArtGallery www.northamptonmuseums.com/collection/c...
