found Margo's Got Money Troubles a downer...I must be old, but I wanted it to end with her going to Art School or film school. whatevs...and that her professor wasn't brought up on charges still pisses me off.

I had a well-used copy given to me when I was a kid. And I read it over and over til the pages fell out. I learned how to write runes from the appendix.

📌Barack Obama was targeted 11 times in assassination attempts during this two terms. I bet you don't remember any of them because they were handled through proper channels, professionally, and he isn't a whiny bitch.

And he is fine and chill with it

134 years ago this cartoon was drawn, and in 134 years the problem has only gotten worse.

Accurate

Hillary Clinton has more than her share of flaws, but when it comes to "showing congressional Republicans the proper level of contempt" she is flawless.

Finally watched One Battle After Another...freaking brilliant and funny.

I know this makes me an extremist but I think our baby concentration camps should be abolished.

Jeff Bezos makes enough money to fully fund this literally every two minutes.

Billionaires are scum

Live your life so that: -Isaac Chotiner never asks for an interview -Ronan Farrow never investigates you -Tressie McMillan Cottom writes an OpEd about your myopia -Tanehisi Coates never has to come on your podcast to tell you how exactly you're a moron

Trump has unleashed a gold rush among immigrant-detaining private prison companies. In cash-strapped cities, residents aren’t sure the money is worth it.

I'm having a hard time with talk shows and political comedy. I can't laugh at that stuff anymore, and that sucks. <image is a Kathe Kollwitz self-portrait>

this. yes.

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall. But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

In a tiny liquor store with everything clearly marked, we're examining the selection when a salesperson who hasn't started shaving regularly asks if I need help. I quipped, "I've been drinking booze longer than you've been alive. I'm good." And just like that - I'm in my eccentric old lady phase.

Everyone needs fake noses.

Wait, what land-based prey? ...and oh shit, polar bears are adapting fast.

If I have to read one article on the front page about the f*cking Beckhams and their little wingy son married to a billionaire family... Democracy and civil rights are about to collapse in the US but sure, lemme hear a little bitch boy complaining.

So I realize there are certainly local politicians who have this aim in practice, but has there ever been a political figure at the national level who openly declared their desire to make homeownership more expensive and unattainable?

yes!

jfc. why are the songs of my youth so relevant STILL? sigh.

Watching late-night comedians making jokes about this regime anymore makes me cringe. It's just too serious and f*cked up. I can't laugh anymore about it.

If not now, then when?

IMPEACH KRISTI NOEM.

IMPEACH KRISTI NOEM.

Who thought when they watched Andor last year that it was a prescient warning about this administration, but here we are...

Hey Minnesota...

oh yeah. EPSTEIN FILES NOW.

This made me feel better. I have a terrible voice, but I belted it out.😀 "Well, it's all right Riding around in the breeze Well, it's all right If you live the life you please Well, it's all right Doin' the best you can Well, it's all right As long as you lend a hand."

My husband asked me why I spent $80 on books this month... I mean, come on. I don't do drugs, drink, or wear fancy fashion PLUS the f*cking world is mental. Note: he let it slide.

The NYT has ceded its authority as a news organization. They are a trompe l'oeil news org.

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Imagine what’s happening in the camps.

I cannot imagine the devastation this family is experiencing today. This statement is powerful and must be read.

I block on likely bot accounts, so if you don't write a decent bio and you have no posts and no likes - sorry, I block. I can't have bot interaction.

Take care, people. I wept for a while this morning, but luckily, my husband hugged me and gently suggested getting offline for a bit. This is a long fight. Take care and pace yourself. Hang in there. #Resistance

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

Jfc jfc

I need these. I mean - Why not? The world is mad and I wanna see hallucinations of little people.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social DUDE WTF. Why even bother? It's a disgrace. You should be ashamed.
