I like the idea of changing the Dem party from within. And from a lot of the Tuesday results, it looks promising. But then I live in a city that re-elected Jacob “the human embodiment of a tub of mayonnaise” Frey for a third term.

To be clear, what I'm saying here is that you can't make Schumer not-Schumer by shaming him. That doesn't mean you shouldn't shame him recreationally, as a team-building exercise, or pour encourager les autres.
Part of what it means to be Team Fight is a recognition that you win by winning. Just as Schumer can't shame Trump into being something other than what he is, we can't shame Schumer and the rest.
The job is to beat them. The job is to win.

If you can’t trust them with the doorknobs, why would you trust them with your heart?
Pippa Durham, 38, was looking forward to a new six-part series billed as a bodice-ripping retelling of the Dissolution of the Monasteries. However, she spotted a 20th-century doorknob in the background of one of the shots and has been livid ever since.

Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going!
Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists.

Good.
Canadian multimillionaire and Shark Tank guy Kevin O'Leary went on TV to say he's upset Zohran won't talk to him: "I and others who invest in real estate have tried to get a meeting to figure out what's rhetoric and what's policy. So far for me it's been crickets."

When I was 9 I wrote that I wanted to be a paleontologist or a musichan (sic). The joy I feel when I see stuff like this makes me think I’m still holding out for that first option.

And in his last moment I hope he realized he built nothing of worth. That Trump and his ilk are his legacy, and he had a great hand in making the world less safe for his family. I hope his last moment was one of pain and despair.

Everything sucks. Maybe try reading some fantasy.
This fantasy series has:
*Old heroes
*Old, fat heroes
*Old, fat, dad heroes with kids who don't listen
and most importantly...
*Murder cats 🗡️🐱
If you relate to any of these (especially the murder cats) you should read it.

This is not a minor issue: it’s a serious threat to democracy. We’re rapidly transitioning into a world where, as long as you support the president, you can be above the law; if you’re in the opposition, you have a target on your back. Opposition can’t survive under these conditions.
I think at this point it’s fair to say that we’re no longer under the rule of law.

But I heard we just called everything we didn’t like Naziism? That Republicans weren’t actually Nazis. What a coincidence.
Please notify President Trump and Vice-President Vance immediately. Isn’t this a mandatory one-year jail sentence—or is this a kind of flag desecration they have no problem with?

The funniest part of all the billionaires are building bunker stories is the part where they’re sure the class hierarchy will survive the apocalypse.

But remember, we must have polite discourse with these motherfuckers.
One of the craziest stories I've seen in a long time. If you think Trump and his administration are extreme and depraved, just wait until you learn about the young guns who are positioning themselves to take over the reigns in the next few decades
