"Right now, we’re living in Trump’s world, in Vance’s world, in Hegseth’s world. This is what a world without empathy looks like. It’s a world of constant othering, of constant rage, of a constant belief that life is a zero-sum game. But nothing flourishes in that world." — @snipy.bsky.social
Me: hey dad, did you hear there’s a Les Mis part 2 going on in France and around the world right now?
Dad: yea I did, but have any of the rich elites said “let them eat cake” yet?
Me: I mean Elon showed off his flying car, so I’d say that’s about as out of touch as you can get 🤷🏽♀️
In 2027 Seattle's minimum wage will be $22.14 per hour. That's more than THREE TIMES the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour—a rate that hasn't been raised since 2009. And yet somehow we're not the jobless wasteland orthodox economics would predict. Weird.
Actress Susan Sarandon being arrested earlier today for protesting Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech at the United Nations. One is speaking out against genocide, one is committing it. One was arrested, one was not.
#Denmark built so much wind that some blustery hours the turbines out-produce what the whole country is using.
When that happens, the extra power doesn’t sit idle. It moves through Denmark’s links into the wider European network and heads to neighbors like Germany, Norway, Sweden. #ActOnClimate
They have every intention of rigging this election and trying to steal it
And these are the same people who spent a decade falsely claiming elections are rigged
It's the biggest, longest con in U.S. political history, and the whole country is its victim
"Given the letters revealed in a 2024 New York Times article, it certainly seems that their relationship is romantic even if it isn’t sexual, at least from her end. The kind of ecstatic devotion Harp describes is beyond the normal employer-employee relationship, or even the closest friendship."
SKY NEWS: “Trump says you’re a gift to the Republican Party.”
@abdulelsayed.bsky.social: “I’m a gift to the state of Michigan, God-willing.”
SKY NEWS: “He says you’re full of shit.”
ABDUL: “At least I don’t let mine go in the middle of the Oval Office.” 🔥 🔥 👀
Milo & Otis (1986) is about the craziest movie from my childhood I just rewatched as a mom. Apparently I did not remember how truly disturbing this children’s movie is… 😳
@petebuttigieg.bsky.social is in Chicago today. I know bc I just saw him at O’Hare airport (my flight is VERY delayed (going on 5 hrs now) & I told my toddler we live here now).
All my brain could think of to say was, “Pete! You’re great! 👍🏽”

DURBIN: There are 10 individuals in the room who were abused by Epstein. None of them have had a chance to speak with anyone in the DOJ, though they've asked. Can I get your word under oath that you will personally sit down with them?
BLANCHE: I'm prohibited from meeting directly with them
Honestly, with SO MUCH crazy stuff going on (McConnell, war in Iran, International ramblings, red cards overturned, falling asleep during meetings, grief over more black people dying, etc), I was starting to forget about THE EPSTEIN FILES!
NEVER LET IT GO UNTIL JUSTICE IS SERVED
Seems like the Chicago World’s Fair (World’s Exposition) in 1893 was WAY more interesting with larger crowds than the current State Fair for the country in DC… 🤔
Imagine Trump ever being invited to join a photo like this — not in a million years.
Four presidents. Zero drama. Just smiles, respect, and a shared love of country. 🇺🇸

I remember watching Barack Obama’s 2004 DNC speech and thinking: one day, this man is going to be president.
What I didn’t know was that he’d launch a presidential campaign just 4 years later.
Today, we’re a divided country. I’m ready to go back to the politics of hope. Who’s with me?
Thank you President Obama. 🙏
I appreciate your honesty, intelligence, dignity, integrity, humility & humor. 👍
Looking forward to the opening of your Presidential Center this week! 👀
Wishing you & your family all the best & continued success, Mar🐫
After seeing men being rude in the Supergirl trailer comments based purely on the fact that *checks notes* they don't find the actress fuckable enough, I am prepared to say that we as a society have evolved past the need for male opinions on literally anything.
