Kentucky’s constitution gives Gov. Beshear the power to appoint a Democrat to McConnell’s seat. Republicans rewrote the law twice to stop him. I signed — tell him to use it: petition.edwardswire.com/beshear

Dr. Patricia Bath overcame sexism, racism & poverty and saved the sight of millions of people. She invented the Laserphaco Probe for cataract treatment, 1986; it was patented in 1988. She co-founded the American Institute for the Prevention of Blindness, 1976. She died #OTD in 2019. #WomenInSTEM

Imagine if a woman president crashed the economy and started a war with no end in sight, and her biggest, seemingly ONLY concern was building a ballroom and redecorating the White House.

Taking care of business. We need to do this and move on.

Rarely have i wished ill on people, but these sons-ofzbitches need to get what's coming to them. A three year old! Forced so plead her case as to why she shouldn't be deported! I do not know a curse strong enough for for the current DHS and all of 47s sycophants!

This!

Elon Musk has acquired billions in government subsidies and tax breaks. Tesla shareholders will vote whether to make him the world’s first Trillionaire. The moral of the story is this: If you ask for affordable healthcare & food, you’re a mooch. If you ask for billions, you’re an entrepreneur.

Oh, yes!

Newsom’s social media team is on a level we’ve never seen before

Insurance premiums are set to skyrocket for Minnesotans and families across the country unless Congressional Republicans work with us to extend the health care tax credits. Open enrollment starts in just 11 days on November 1. This is a *now* problem. www.axios.com/local/twin-c...

Jimmy Kimmel's Monologue now has 14.3 MILLION VIEWS on YouTube. It would be a shame for you to share it www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1tj...

Question: Why did US put big tariffs on India despite major national interest in cultivating a strategic counterweight to China and trying to isolate Russia? Answer: Because the US president lied that he fixed India-Pakistan and India wouldn’t go along with the lie. (Seriously, that’s the answer)

Rest in Piss, MAGA! O.M.G. I love it!

The Queen of the Night (Epiphyllum oxypetalum) blooms once a year at night.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

The dildo of consequence rarely comes lubed.

STRESS KILLS. 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, struggling every day to keep their families going.   The result: working class people die 7 years earlier than the rich. We need an economy that works for all, not just the few.

Well that’s a headline I did not except to see. Ever.

You first.

Vive la France! "Contre nous de la tyrannie; L’étendard sanglant est levé."

So right.

Did You Know? The inventor of the bestselling Super Soaker was a Black man—and Hasbro tried to cheat him out of his royalties. In 2013, Lonnie Johnson, a nuclear engineer and former NASA scientist, won a $73 million settlement from Hasbro for underpaid royalties. Johnson holds over 80 patents.

The sooner we collectively realize that Elon Musk is a shitposting, conspiracy-addled fool, who needs to stay out of public policy not upend it, the safer we’ll all be.

And on his own platform! 😂

Nope. Never.

If they really worried about military readiness and qualifications they wouldn’t even consider Hegseth for a hot minute.

Not voting in the Oscars this year. IMHO they should cancel them. No glitz with Los Angeles on fire.

My feeling is that it's not unserious to spend time on the question of whether someone about to be hired for one of the most powerful jobs in the world drugged and raped a woman (as she alleges and he denies) www.nytimes.com/2025/01/15/o...

Thank you, Canada. And we’re so sorry about him.
