I don't claim to under stand social media algorithms but for some reason Bluesky feels I need to "Discover" a constant stream of baseball news (the one sport I absolutely despise) and heirloom tomatoes.

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.

Establishment Democrats are working with Republicans for a bipartisan continuing resolution to fund the fascist government without any concessions or limitations on how that fascist government will attack us in case you're wondering why so many people on the left are turning to democratic socialism.

Funny that no-one is sub-tweeting MAGA chuds like Sophie Cunningham and Aaron Rodgers to "shut up and stick to dribbling/throwing the ball"

"Reminder, the only time Trump played a golf tournament where he couldn't cheat, the American Century celebrity tournament in 2006, he shot 52 over par in 3 rounds and finished in 62nd place out of 80 celebrities," a golfer noted.

My wife is a teacher in a very small district where all the families are on the local FB group. I can tell you with complete certainty that there is a 1 to 1 correlation between families that bitched about the COVID lock down (and still do) and poor student achievement upon return to classrooms.

my neighborhood 7-11 closed a couple years ago and tried to reopen but couldn’t get the permit approved because there’s a preschool next door and 7-11s sell alcohol (the previous permit was grandfathered in). i saw a fence going up around the lot recently and looked up what was moving in: a gun shop

They never cared about women’s sports before it became politically convenient. Equal pay? Pfffft. Rampant sexual abuse? Sorry that keeps happening. An excuse to attack a tiny population of vulnerable transgender athletes? “PROTECT WOMENS’ SPORTS!”

As a voting citizen of the USA for over half a century, the most insane & disgusting thing to me about Americans is the fact that even though national elections can be won by a handful of votes, 70 to 80 million Americans don't bother to vote at all while complaining about how bad our government is.

Fuck each and every singula Republican across this entire country from the federal down to the city/town level and everyone who voted for you. I am so incredibly tired of all your never ending bullshit and everything you are putting this country and its citizens through. Fuck you all.

A woman’s Global Entry was revoked days after she legally observed ICE agents. ICE agents showed up to a polling place to demand a worker remove an anti-ICE post. A man was sentenced to 30 years in prison for moving a box of left-wing magazines. Trump’s crackdown on dissent is here. Be warned.

The guy that they want you to be terrified of (Mamdani) is making sure kids in NYC are fed all summer and people have access to cheaper groceries, all while they take food away from kids getting SNAP. Just sayin, feeding kids should make you the good guy.

In a very first for me I got a handwritten note from a person outside of my district thanking me for a recent op-ed I wrote about how the free stater/GOP majority (for the last 10 years) is the reason for our downshifted high property taxes People are listening
