Always make the argument “why won’t you say yes to me?” I’ve always gotten far farther that axis of attack.

one of the most important lessons I learned in my time with the union was that all decisions, and I do mean all, come down to a single calculus: can you make those with power believe it is more expensive to say no to you, than to say yes?

Occasionally I think I should do a graphic novel about Cage and his relationship to Merce Cunningham and how they changed music and dance forever together, which is clearly the perfect story for a medium without sound or movement. Its in my heart, though, John. Its in my heart.

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

Every Democrat who doesn't condemn this man is complicit, they are allowing their "big tent" to include genocidal freaks who want to exterminate parts of their "tent"

There are people, even some trans people, who think that we can give up sports to appease bigots. That if we give up on sports, this all goes away. That is a lie. I have reported on this for years, and EVERY state that passed a sports ban as a moderate compromise has gone on to pass worse.

This is a point that I always want to really hammer home when it comes to environmental matters It’s not about being overly-optimistic, it’s about understanding that there’s machinery at play that wants you to believe that we’re cooked and done, that’s betting on people letting go and giving up

It’s really important to note that there is a lot of effort put into making you believe that the battle for the environment has been lost and that there’s nothing more we can do, so you can only sit idly by and watch It’s completely false, there are so many things we can still save

One interesting thing about #iHunt is that the numbers for bounties were mostly written before 150% inflation. In the first novel, $3,000 is a few months' rent for our hero. Now, it's barely one month.

some irate thoughts from the other website after yet another sly aside caught in a random baseball video about how worthless liberal arts degrees are

The most horrifying part about this to me is that there's ways to do paperwork to prevent this, but poor people are not taught about it, we are not informed that we need to do this, rich people know all the paperwork secrets and they intentionally keep poor people from them

if millennials could afford homes this wouldnt be a problem but this is going to hit the generation like a truck

And yet bc he is criminal will power, he will ignore all this, and congress will throw their hands up. They've tried nothing and are all out of ideas. Also: if they will do this to CHILDREN they will do it to you. No money or privilege can save you.

"The immigration judge works for the Trump administration. So does the prosecutor. Under your plan, so would the child’s lawyer. That is unacceptable."

If our system of justice can determine that shooting a one year-old is justified, then we do not have a system of justice, and our goal should be the eradication of the system we have and its replacement with something better.

JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

And, I know I say this a lot, but it's because A) It's true and B) I hope it gets through some cis people's thick fucking skulls any legal engine that can strip rights from a minority CAN and WILL be used on YOU. And we KNOW this happened cause it's what happened LAST TIME.

right wing bigots have admitted - the “trans women in bathrooms” issue - the “trans women in sports” issue and - the “trans kids getting surgery” issue were all MADE UP TO TAKE OUR RIGHTS AWAY are you paying attention?

To be fair, "we are all going to die of the future" is actually true if really unhelpfully abstract.
