the dopamine hit of drafting a reply in a contentious thread that absolutely does not involve me, deleting it, and getting on with my day 🤤

Here's the unspoken thing: the livability of the planet in my middle age depends on a rapid shift in American politics that simply may not happen, and it will be especially unreachable if we do the same concessions to dark money funded doubtmongering on the climate side as we're debating with MAHA

"hot take lacks nuance" and water is wet

yeah, i'm under-babied. not enough of you are babying me.

I shouldn't be surprised that the right is like, "don't make grandma pay taxes on her tips! she has to save money for her husband's cancer treatment" and not a single dem will campaign on, "no grandma should need to work, much less to pay for their husbands cancer treatment." and yet!

me, the most annoying lapsed catholic: 'scuse me father, is the blood and body of christ vegan?

It doesn't matter who the person is, being alive should mean having food, shelter, healthcare, and a better tomorrow.

Imagine being a Dem politician in the year 2026 and thinking the problem is issue litmus tests and not the lukewarm soup of a platform they've been trying to force feed us for... idk 50 years?

who are these little ghouls that keep including newsom in 2028 "polls" get that fucking transphobe off the list

so self-identifying as an american is all it takes? sounds like we've got billions of dollars to save, a couple federal agencies to abolish, and many thousands of people to *free* and pay reparations to 🤷‍♀️

in my lexicon the words "boi" and "girlie" are gender neutral. blame it on that midwestern "guys" habit if you must find a root cause.

I love Minnesota

Gonna be wild to watch corporate/neolib/centrist Dems fumble the bag in 2026

wishing the bears all the best on getting state funding from Indiana. McCaskey is worth $1.2 billion. it cannot be overstated how much they don't need Illinois taxpayer money.

If you're mad at Dem senators today, best save yourselves some future disappointment and unhitch your 2028 wagons from Newsom. You're welcome.

I just know the ever-spineless @durbin.senate.gov is one of the 8. Absolute ghoul.

idk it seems to me establishment dems didn't like that candidate in maine _until_ the tattoo reveal.

google ai ad: "instead of talking to the friends you are sitting next to, about the activity you are all partaking in, enter your question into this slop app and regurgitate it's output with confidence so it seems like you know what you're doing" fucking bleak

figma leading the enshittification curve of 2025 I see

"shouldn't've" is fun

bring back double door

on the long list of unfortunate side effects of social media is the creation, and proliferation, of the "instagrammable bar" if a venue looks "fun" on social it's probably a waking nightmare in reality

i need the powers that be to stop renewing The Bear

photograph all politicians in this lighting from now on please, it really highlights the ghoul

new pope, "ope" edition, just dropped

people are really out here forgetting that the A in AI stands for _artificial_

really fucking tired of the "everything is a business" takes education should not be a business healthcare should not be a business government should not be a business

i just know the egg budget for severance season 3 is gonna be ridiculous

@workingfamilies.org - i'm seriously asking tho.

in part because i can never remember "reintegrate", but i'll be damned if this doesn't work on several levels.
