so my village has been having a lot of issues. rather than deal with any of them, i grabbed a goat and had all the villagers pile their blame and hate onto the goat. while we were getting ready to drive it into the woods (and absolve ourselves) the goat BIT ME????? RUDE?!?

I resigned from ExxonMobil today. I spent the last three years doing fossil fuel extraction research at both BP and ExxonMobil. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing to maximize extraction while the window to act closes, and gambling with our lives. More below.

i don't believe talarico is a bigot. im pretty sure he isnt. but if he apparently "has to" answer bad faith questions in a way that appears to compromise on the rights of one group of people being repressed to get elected, it's fair to ask what else he will "have to" do once he's in office

WATTERS & EL-SAYED. Watters: Do you think men should play women's sports? El-Sayed: I'm running for U.S. Senate. It's insane. I'm out here trying to take on the health care crisis and big pharma, and you're asking me about who gets to play what sports. It's silly. People can't take you seriously.

El-Sayed: You don't want to talk about gas prices. You don't want to talk about groceries....You want to bring up all this culture war

As a Black American, I have always felt that the primary was my real election. Because at the end of the day, America is going to America. So for a candidate to switch up AFTER the primary? To advocate for my harm after agreeing to help me? That is a transgression deserving of punishment.

And what they got in return is what every other marginalized group deemed disposable has gotten. A spineless candidate who will decide that advice from an overpriced conservative think tank posing as a Democratic advisor is more valuable than the people who brought them to the dance.

People are on here talking wild reckless to trans people. And it is very annoying because trans people have done everything they needed to do. They educated the public about candidates who were against civil rights. They pointed people towards viable alternatives. They came through in primaries.

trans people: we can't accept a political candidate who advocates for our exclusion from society, we know where that road leads and our best shot is to not let it take hold cis people: wow you don't even care about my transfriend Jeremy who could be in real trouble

It's a cute trick, framing this as a security disclosure. But it's not. No one involved in rubygems wrote any of this. It's pretending to be one for the sake of dramatizing the supposed "escape from containment", which appears to be their favourite way of drumming up press over the last few months.

Lone Progressive Dissenters have the highest batting average of being correct in history, yet that does nothing to change the widespread conviction that today’s Lone Progressive Dissenters must be crazy wackos.

Trump's massive surveillance state and attacks on our civil liberties wouldn't have been possible without the PATRIOT Act. Watch this prescient warning from Russ Feingold, the only Senator to vote against its passage after 9/11.
