Three days without sunshine, and I feel like Charlize Therone in “the road“: I can’t go oooooonnnn! 😭

Practice self-care.
Hey, my homies!

If you’re feeling lonely this season, don’t sit in silence. Reach out to someone you trust—your sister, a friend, or join an online group.

Remember, connection starts with just 1 message. You never know who needs to hear from you!

Just a reminder that Valve Corporation, which runs Steam, has donated exclusively to Democratic candidates and the Democratic Party in federal elections for 2020, 2022, and 2024. It's one of the few tech companies still aligned with morality. They deserve credit for standing with democracy.

Well this is peak meta: I broke all of my reading glasses except for one last pair (out of 5). I sit down during a break at work to order a new pair online, but because my one last pair at home I can’t see well enough to order new glasses. 😖🤦🏽‍♂️

LA: “They took a US citizen father out and left a toddler in the backseat. Two heavily armed border patrol agents got in that car and drove the child and the vehicle away.”

I just removed an injured praying mantis from the middle of the sidewalk into a heavily planted area and I feel like I made the universe a better place 😆

Grokipedia is entirely dependent on the whims of Elon Musk. It completely deadnames and misgender Chelsea Manning despite not doing so for other prominent trans people. It has no article for Vivian Wilson despite her having a Wikipedia page.

Grokipedia is racist, transphobic, and loves Elon Musk
xAI’s version of Wikipedia, Grokipedia, frames the world’s history from Elon Musk’s perspective.

Look at this video the Washington Post put out arguing that Wikipedia has a lefty bias. It's filmed in the same style as the videos @davejorgenson.bsky.social used to make for them, but is now just some right-wing guy pushing right-wing trash youtube.com/shorts/aNV80...

Excellent observation!

“The law continues to protect Trump but refuses to bind him.

While the law has bound Jack Smith but refuses to protect him”
At this point, anyone with any damaging evidence needs to just leak it.

Let it all out.

These are unprecedented times, and Trump is an unprecedented threat.

The law continues to protect Trump but refuses to bind him.

While the law has bound Jack Smith but refuses to protect him

Leak. It. All.

Trump issues disaster declarations for Alaska and other states but denies Illinois and Maryland

The difference is that one state is Republican. The other two are not. This is not leadership!

Love this energy. Maybe this reality check will make maga realize that “Libs” have been fighting for them all along. And that, “A house divided cannot stand”.

📣 Political violence is gun violence, and it’s silencing our First Amendment freedoms.

The ‘individual right’ to carry guns isn’t from 1791 — it was created by the gun lobby Supreme Court justices in 2008 (Heller) & expanded in 2022 (Bruen).

WATCH: “Let’s be honest - they’re not showing up on HBCU campuses to debate. They’re showing up to agitate our children and incite a response from us.”

Reactions to the Tennessee State agitators who showed up uninvited— who now claim they didn’t know it was an HBCU 🤔🙃

There is no “cure” for this ailment. And millions of black men have served honorably and effectively with it since the Civil War.
This is 100% a GOP effort to purge of ppl of color from the #military.

“Antifa” isn’t an organisation. It’s an ADJECTIVE. It’s a contraction of anti-fascist.

So by “outlawing Antifa”, Trump is literally proposing to make it illegal to oppose fascism.

Antifa is not a real group, and therefore can’t be labeled as “terrorist.” It is a creation by MAGA to create a fake “radical left.”

Proud Boys, Oath Keepers & Patriot Front are real groups that should be labeled “terrorist” immediately.

Follow the money:

Kimmel’s suspension looks less like morality, more like monopoly.

Kimmel’s suspension isn’t just about outrage.

It’s about Nexstar’s $6B merger and keeping the FCC happy.

Free speech gets sold when corporate money and political pressure align.👇

I love this quote: “Hate salts everything it touches.”
You reap what you sow. And hate salts everything it touches.
"The U.S. agricultural workforce fell by 155,000 — about 7 percent — between March and July, according to an analysis of Bureau of Labor Statistics data. That tracks with Pew Research Center data that shows total immigrant labor fell by 750,000 from January through July."
