courage the cowardly dog

The GOP captured the Supreme Court in response to decades of progress — but it doesn't have to be this way.

RIP Dolly Parton

Gary, Indiana is 77% percent Black. Thousands have been without power for nearly two weeks. Many are without safe water. Yet every data center is operational & using enormous amounts of both power and water. This is what oligarchy looks like. Everyone suffers so the 1% can make even more.

North Korea is good. Canada is bad. Coal is good. Solar is bad. Measles is good. Vaccination is bad. Child rapists are good. Childcare is bad. Pointless wars are good. Universal healthcare is bad. Anyone supporting the unrelenting chaos of the #GOP deserves zero respect. #RemoveTrump

The comfort seeing this cover again is priceless.

1. Fallout: New Vegas 2: Xcom 2 WOTC 3: Red Dead Redemption 2 It's hard to lock down your definitive all time favorites, but these three have been mine long enough that I think it's safe to say they are staying there.

Both sides? Explain your nuanced approach

Storm fan art!!

I’d feel extremely safe on this flight because I already know they had to work twice as hard, be twice as good and make half as many mistakes just to get into those seats. Black women make up less than 1% of professional pilots. Yeah, I’d sleep good on this flight. ✈️

If all income in excess of $400,000 were subject to the Social Security payroll tax, Social Security’s solvency would be guaranteed forever. We could also expand Social Security benefits. There’s no reason even to consider reducing Social Security benefits or raising the age of eligibility.

I am too, I am also making a comeback as a Metaverse

1. Mitch McConnell suffered a fall on June 14 and has not been in the Senate for two months. But he's continued to get paid his salary of 174K/year. Since he entered the Senate in 1985, McConnell has voted against creating or expanding medical leave — paid and unpaid — at least 23 times.

China is producing 89% of the world’s solar panels, 70% of the world’s wind turbines, 83% of the world’s batteries, and 75% of the world’s electric vehicles. And they're not involved in constant wars. Coincidence?

Tom Morello from Rage Against the Machine has it figured out. I couldn't agree more. Fuck fascism.

We have not forgotten that ICE murdered Renee Good and Alex Pretti

I wonder how Bernie Moreno feels about being such a pathetic scumbag stooge that he won't demand the resignation of a GOP member of the House who held a gun to his daughter's head, scalded her with hot water, and broke his 2-year-old granddaughter's collarbone.

Desk clerk: "Nice Zelda hat!" Me: "Thanks!" Desk clerk: "I'm excited for the Ocarina of Time remake. I've never played it, but it was my mom's favorite game as a kid." Me:

My room temp and correct take on tipping is that if you make a comfortable living you tip servers always and you tip them well because who the fuck do you think you are

The President of Mexico, arriving in NYC. The love that he craves. #Pinks #USDemocracy

They pulled him out of the car and handcuffed him after shooting him in the head. This force must be dismantled and prosecuted up and down the chain of command.

Michael Fanone's take on Lindsey Graham is one of the most powerful I've read:

Hey Lindsey Graham, say hi to Charlie Kirk in hell for me.

"I have a very glad feeling about this... " #DitchMcConnell

So now millions of football fans around the world view the US as cheaters who used political corruption to influence FIFA and we lose anyway. So much winning. When’s the next war?

The people in hell want ice water

The news is depressing, so it’s only fair that I tell you we talk about Minions for the first five minutes of this one.

In a world of performative cruelty, kindness is punk af. Be punk af.

Hawaii just passed the first state law in the country banning corporations from making political donations in state elections. Now a Koch-backed legal group is suing to overturn it. Big Money won't get out of our politics without a fight — one that we the people must win. (via @levernews.com)

Bernie Sanders and his progressive allies are on a hot streak. The senator’s support has been instrumental in powering unknown candidates to major wins this cycle, a demonstration of how much political influence the 84-year-old progressive leader still commands.

Proud to announce that I'm joining the House Judiciary Committee, where some of the biggest fights of our time are happening. Protecting rights. Defending democracy. Fighting for survivors. Taking on Trump, his admin & every abuser of power. Accountability just got a new seat.

We are ready to defeat Susan Collins and take back this Senate seat for the working people of Maine.

You need to be SPECIFIC re: sources of your posts, bc unsubstantiated ones are merely "click bait." Here you go: (& note, it is a 'Gift Article' link, so everyone can read it): www.nytimes.com/2026/05/20/u...

True, but just TRY to get something like this past the GOP.

Never thought I’d be living in a world so shitty that I’d find myself saying WHO CARES ABOUT UFO PICS RIGHT NOW

Share this widely. Please and thank you.

The conflict in South Sudan has left the nation on the brink of a massive hunger crisis. For millions, aid can be the difference between life and death. We have a moral obligation to take immediate action and provide critical humanitarian aid. aje.news/vmf1pc

If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed. Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

This is not the own Ted thinks it is . . .
