Wonder Woman (the TV show & in general) was one of my FAVORITE things as a kid. I love that Lynda Carter has NEVER stopped being the Wonder Woman we all need.
Reminder that I AM LATINA AND PROUD. I am the product of immigration - my grandmother was undocumented and entered the country from Mexico as a baby. My mother was a fierce, gorgeous Latina woman of Mexican and Spanish descent.
Excuse me while I go fling myself into the Ohio River. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...
So this is fun! My insufferable PA state rep’s daughter (class pres at local high school) plagiarized her graduation speech. And not just the WORDS, but also the pacing, tone, etc. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8MxWBDw/
This sentence! "After a career of high-profile mediocrity, punctuated by flamboyant failures, the selling of the presidency is the most successful business venture of his career." www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...
I’d add that it’s not “taking hold” *now*. It’s been an animating feature for over a century to distract from the fascists.
the irrational fear of communism taking hold in the united states is perhaps the single most destructive force against anything getting better here. people are raised to be actively afraid of life getting better for everyone.
In your opinion, what's a cover of a song that not only holds up to the original but wildly exceeds it. youtu.be/CDl9ZMfj6aE?...
This is 57 varieties of fucked up.
Kristi Noem has been working with the producer of “Duck Dynasty” to pitch a reality TV show—titled “The American”—where immigrants will compete in a string of challenges across the country “for the honor of fast-tracking their way to U.S. citizenship,” according to a new report.
“…and it could not come at a more difficult time for the American press.” Does this possibly translate to: “We fucked ourselves, but we want to whine like victims about it.”
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “Across the world, we’ve seen democracy in retreat,” writes A.G. Sulzberger, the publisher of The New York Times. “This anti-press playbook is now being used here in this country — and it could not come at a more difficult time for the American press.”
I’m so glad that the person I thought was the most beautiful woman in the whole world when I was a kid turned out to be one of the good guys. 💗💗💗
This is the 50th anniversary of Willie recording his breakthrough album, Red-Headed Stranger. Here are a few pics from the premiere of the movie we did by the same name, stringing the songs together to form a plot. Sweetest man in the world!💗
This is a very good, very thorough article. You should read it.
None of these “deportations” should be happening. And these aren’t even deportations; they're a violent form of exile. People are being snatched and sent to places rife with violence, torture and sexual abuse. The United States is building a series of concentration camps and gulags overseas.
“…you’re the empire,” says the administration whose leader acts like - and whose party treats him like - an emperor. Stupid and unserious motherfuckers.
Just… what the fuck? The literal mouthpiece for the Empire telling the “radical left lunatics” that they aren’t the Rebellion, but they are actually the Empire… How did we lose to these absolute morons? Just mind-bendingly stupid people. Like, I’m going to run out of chars describing the stupidity
