can I "stay on top" of the laundry? no, absolutely not will I randomly enter a state where I wash, dry, fold and put away 10 loads of clothes in a single frenzied rush? oh you KNOW it

My husband keeps bringing home different varietals of honey from the local produce market and so far the ones I thought would taste weird (cilantro, poison oak) taste very normal and the one I thought would taste normal (buckwheat) tastes very weird.

Thread. Rapists running a coercive sex ring AND transmitting CSAM AND inducing other men to abuse women and girls in turn. The alleged behavior is legitimately monstrous and it’s a HUGE deal that the Trump regime is undermining law enforcement to help/free them. Epstein in real time

The fact that VP JD Vance and Richard Grenell went to Romania—on behalf of the Trump Administration— to advocate for Andrew and Tristan Tate, who by all accounts, were rapists running a coercive sex ring, then permitted them to come to Florida, should be a crazy, crazy scandal.

Amazing! ICE kills a man ~7:30 am. 1st news report is an hour later. ~1:30 pm, a group of 𝒔𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒍 𝒉𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 marches in Main Street and "storms into the Biddeford office of [U.S.] Sen. Susan Collins." Would be hard to do in NYC. Biddeford pop. = 22,000! www.pressherald.com/2026/07/13/s...

As the crowd marched down Main Street and gathered outside Sen. Collins’ Biddeford office, about a dozen people made it inside the entryway, chanting “Vote her out!” and banging their fists on the office’s locked doors.

Staffers inside could be seen on the phone as the crowd grew. Minutes later, five Biddeford police officers pushed through the entryway and placed themselves between protestors and the door.

“This is your fault Susan!” one man shouted.

“You're a fascist!” another person yelled at the officers.

The crowd dissipated and began marching back toward Mechanics Park after chanting at and heckling the officers.

Police did not answer questions about whether Collins’ staffers called 911 on protestors.

Video appears to show no damage to the vehicle of the man ICE killed in Houston, who had lived in America peacefully for 35 years, despite ICE's claim that he "rammed" an ICE vehicle and "tried to run over" an agent. These people are not credible.

Video shows the moments before ICE shot a worker who lived for 35 years in the United States. It appears to show it was ICE attempting to initiate contact with his vehicle, not the worker attempting to "ram" ICE agents

let this be a lesson to deal with your feelings of gender anxiety and masculine inadequacy with a hobby or therapy or something and not a high stakes senate election

Hey you. Yeah, you reading this. I hope your July is better than your June. I hope that thing you're worried about works itself out for the best. I hope they text back. I hope you find that $20 you forgot about in a pocket right when you need it most. I just really hope things for you get better.

Not only is it a skill issue but "You need to work within the system and within the Party" is what the people freaking out about this have explicitly been telling critics to do for decades. I guess they didn't mean it, didn't think anyone would try, or were confident it couldn't work.

My basic view of primarying house incumbents is that if they are beatable then they have been very shitty at their jobs beyond taking some bad positions. Just didn't try, got caught sleeping. Spend 5 minutes in your district and it won't happen

fixing the court is table stakes for any Dem running for national office, you are not a serious candidate if you can’t get on board with this and refusing to do so is disqualifying in a primary because it doesn’t matter what your policy positions are if SCOTUS will just overrule them

The Birthright citizenship ruling should be a wake up call to any Dem who is still on the fence about court reform. We are essentially one seat change away from the Court undoing Reconstruction by fiat.
