I panic when Hakeem Jeffries or whoever says "we don't want to fight with the Republicans, we want to reach across the aisle and get stuff done" cuz I assume that will ONLY result in doing things that BOTH Republicans and Democrats agree on. And the only thing they agree on is censoring the Internet

Saw my friend drinking this soda and i said it looked like goatse but she didn't know what that was and now I feel bad for mentioning it lol

canceling my plans

😭💔 PLEASE STOP SCROLLING! Rain has flooded Reem’s tent and soaked all her clothes. Her family has nothing to protect them from the cold. She’s devastated and can’t bear this pain anymore. 😭 Please don’t leave her alone. Your donation could save her family🙏💔 chuffed.org/project/help...

Our data analysis suggests that a moderate Democratic nominee would probably stand a better chance of winning back the White House than a DSA-backed one. We explain why

As we remember Brianna, also remember that hate crime is increasing against trans individuals. For all the talk about the "trans debate" you are talking about people's lives. That isn't a debate. Trans and non-binary individuals are being killed and yet we are still told our lives are up for debate.

Happy Birthday, Brianna Ghey. You will always be in our hearts; we will never forget you, and we will never stop till this country is a safe place for trans people. Rest in power 🫶♥️

Had to come and see it for myself. LEGENDARY.

Whiteboard in the library at UMass asks if the library should have an “AI Makerspace” and the students’ “NO” answers are off the charts. They hate this so very much. I’ve never seen a whiteboard in the library this fired up.

(covered in radiation sores in the year 2650) Come, my children, gather round. I will tell you the legend of Orange Man Bad.

for the record, james talarico did not 'walk back' his anti-trans comments. he reiterated that his support on anti-trans sports bans was contingent on it being 'sport by sport' rather than a blanket ban and restated that he would support a nationwide ban on trans healthcare for children.

You think Mamdani can't get any cooler, then you read something like this

Look me in the eyes and tell me people wouldn't watch 30 mins of RFK being interrogated about his horrifying sex life and various roadkill trophies.

Sorry to be crass, but what Americans want is content, and corruption investigations are better content than many real issues, while also having the benefit of being a real issue

Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. Kill him and eat his heart. It contains a rare enzyme which will lyse your cancer.

This is what makes America great imo

Reminds me of how they treated me on Twitter, I would speak about issues trans people faced calmly and I'd never clap back in anger at transphobic bigots or respond to them at all, but it seemed to drive them incandescent with rage and they started circulating fake screenshots of shit I didn't say.

You will never be politely trans enough for the people who want to destroy you. There is no acceptable level of trans for them. It's not because some other trans people are weirder than you, it's because they hate trans people, meaning you, no matter what. Deal, literally, with it.

every time, the need to talk about the distinct needs of physical transitioners devolves into “nonbinary people need to be included too” many nonbinary people physically transition, i am one of them. fucking stop it

Im sorry Im still thinking about Malfoid and how its just a sort of retreat into idiot childhood fantasy because politics got too complicated.

apparently if you used to be active on Tumblr and particularly if you were into fashion, you saw this image a lot of what many people assumed was a lesbian couple, which is funny because the person on the left is: 1. a man named Rob Sand, who is now 2. the governor-elect of Iowa

109 years ago the Bolsheviks stormed the Winter Palace in Petrograd and brought down the Provisional Government. For the first time in human history a working class movement had taken state power and set out to build a society organized around human need instead of profit.

Okay, so, Robert Garcia from Long Beach is going to lead the House Oversight Committee, right. I had to make an exception to the “no posting screenshots from X” rule because when I tell you this man has spoken to my bitchy Xennial soul…

Simply incredible picture of Alan Moore, his wife Melinda Gebbie and Colin the Caterpillar

As we welcome Woke 2.0 or 3.0 or whatever it is, a fun thing to remember is that there's no need to pull rhetorical punches on right wingers ever again in our lives. In 18 months they validated every negative thing that's ever been said about them and more
