When your party leader is a president with historically low approval ratings, who has raised prices through tariffs and wars, uses disaster relief and science grants to punish states that didn’t vote for him, and has agents shooting people in the streets, this is what you do.

Watched Star Trek Scouts on YouTube last night to see if my niece would like it, and while I thought it was too dumbed down (even by modern Nick Jr. standards), I did learn that my old af cat absolutely LOVES it (lots of stuff flying around on screen). I guess there really is Star Trek for everyone.

What a surprise, the alleged abuser was jacking himself up on testosterone.
Our thoroughly corrupt electoral system.
Whenever conservatives whine that universal healthcare, federal public health directives, or any form of universal social safety nets would create "death panels" remind them that under our current capitalist healthcare system this fresh hell exists. What the fuck are we even doing bro? 😮💨

Frances Perkins was the patron saint of American workers and an inspiration for me during my time as labor secretary. She was the guiding light behind the creation of Social Security, the 40-hour workweek, the National Labor Relations Act, and much more.
Today's Prospect Patriot is Frances Perkins. She saw the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory go ablaze in 1911 and her life changed. "The New Deal was born that day," she said. 22 years later she'd be America's first female cabinet member. prospect.org/2026/08/04/a...

I’m old enough to remember when lying about adultery was worthy of impeachment. Feels quaint at this point.
Microsoft: $101 BILLION in profits. $12.5 BILLION in tax breaks. $176 BILLION in stock buybacks. 4,800 workers fired this week. 9,000 workers fired last year. Please don't tell me trickle-down economics works. It never did. Nothing trickles down.

One of the best unsung jokes in DS9 is Ezri remembering Quark owes Jadzia money.
When bigots create a dog whistle to get praise from other bigots and end up creating the most ridiculously stupid yet perfect litmus test to see who in the fake outrage industry/community actually watched the film:
Had an incredible interaction with a guy over the weekend who went to see The Odyssey and told me he was pissed that Elliott Page played Achilles, a character Elliott Page did not play that was not in the movie
Look at almost any WPBL comment section and you'll see all of the misogynist transphobes who screeched about "protecting women's sports" prove that they really only want to bully trans kids to death and be absolutely certain that the athletes they abuse, harass, and spit venom at are all cis women.

The President promotes Scotts Miracle-Gro in the middle of an Oval Office event: The best grass you can get. Scotts, you know Scotts? Scott's Miracle-Gro, they're doing it. They do great grass. I got to give him a plug because they did the White House for free.
It really takes a lot of courage for hamburger to ask for help.
The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.
