My kids have measles, I lost my job, and I'm going to die because RFK Jr. cancelled the clinical trials that might have cured my cancer. But at least I know there won't be any same-sex couples in the next Frozen movie.

Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.
Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.
One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

One of my least rational beliefs is that if you pull off a heist without hurting anyone or getting caught within a day, that's your stuff fair and square.

If I had a dollar for every time Newsom vetoed progressive legislation that would actually help Californians, I could single-handedly afford to bring production back to Los Angeles
First sentence says it all: "Gov. Gavin Newsom has vetoed legislation that would have required data centers to report how much water they use." Read the rest of the story though. from @ianjames.bsky.social: www.latimes.com/environment/...
California cracks down on water theft but spares data centers from disclosing how much they use
Gov. Newsom vetoed a bill that would have required data centers to report their projected water use when applying for a business license.
