“At the end, it’s almost like the beginning,

With dream-awakened eyes she saw all the beauty around her, saw the sea, felt the sun, and knew: [S]he had to vanish for a while from the human plane and make every sacrifice in order to create her world anew

Sen. Patty Murray on #ElonMusk:
"Let’s not mince words here: An unelected, unaccountable #billionaire with expansive conflicts of interest, deep ties to #China and an indiscreet ax to grind against perceived enemies is hijacking our nation’s most sensitive financial data system and its checkbook."

Are some finally waking up like those frogs who've been slowly boiled alive, only to realize the pot's been rigged by the #oligarchs all along? And how many of us, despite the steam, are hell-bent on keeping our eyes tightly shut, pretending it's just a fancy spa treatment?

I love that when I say "the good place" and "the bad place" everyone knows exactly what I'm talking about.

Trump is telling us that he’s going to fire hundreds of thousands, deport tens of millions, kick tens of millions off their healthcare & cut hundreds of millions in social programs and Ma and Pa MAGA STILL believe all of this shit is going to help them in some fucking way.

Narrator: it’s not.

Trump lied all the way through the campaign saying he knew nothing about Project 2025 and now he's nominating everyone from Project 2025 to serve in his administration.

Messaging wasn't the problem for Kamala. It's that Trump can lie over and over and never pays a price.

I’m finding the community here far more engaging and respectful, while still wickedly funny. Happy to be migrating to these friendlier skies.

"What do you think an artist is? ...he is a political being, constantly aware of the heart breaking, passionate, or delightful things that happen in the world, shaping himself completely in their image. Painting is not done to decorate apartments. It is an instrument of war."
