We’ll watch the sunrise together, it’s a date 💛
Stay alive. Keep fucking living. As the old song goes it’s always darkest just before the dawn, so stay awake with me let’s prove them wrong. We are going to see the sun rise together. I have seen it. And I can tell you it is going to be more beautiful than you can

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
As much as I want menswear guy to comment on… all of this, I already know what he is going to say. He has better things to do then repeate himself about:

Overall Fit
Sports coats
Professional jeans
Poor quality tailoring
This is exactly what I thought the nepo baby who wrote the Olivia Nuzzi article looks like

While I agree no one person should be able to grind things to a halt, sure speaks volumes about what Dems could be doing but simply choose not to.
/ because he objected to the Defense Department reimbursing travel costs to female soldiers for abortions. Johnson closed the House for weeks, violating Art. 1, sec. 5 of the Constitution.
We need to change rules that let a single senator or representative block the normal work of government.

Give them a call, let them know how pissed we’ll be if they reopen the government and have nothing to show for it

Meta's fraud problem: The social media giant projected 10% of its 2024 revenue would come from ads for scams and banned goods, documents seen by @Reuters show reut.rs/4qJTpdH

I dunno, I think this means the R’s don’t have the votes and are using the filibuster to hide behind. Removing it would put many of them in a tough spot.

But what do I know? I’ve been waiting for the market to crash and Tesla just approved that trillion dollar pay package
This is how you know ending the filibuster is a good idea and would ultimately lead to positive, tangible change for the country

I just think it’s neat that Fresno went Yes on 50 by something like 150 people. Good job, Fresno!

Watching pets get sick or old isn’t for the faint of heart. Donut is having a good night, very thankful.

Gotta take this life thing and squeeze all the joy and good times we can from it.

Listening to Careless People and damn. Like always fuck Mark Z but especially fuck Mark Z… and that Sheryl S too

I think it’s probably pretty important to start getting folks to tell elects NO AI BAILOUT

*adds it to the list*
He’s saying taxpayers will step in and backstop their companies when the AI bubble bursts — as we have done so many times before.

Privatized upside, socialized downside. The oligarchs play us for suckers.

What do you wanna bet that the same billionaires who asked Trump to spare the metro from the wrath of a fed deployment will also ask to keep our airports unaffected by this?

The Bay is the Emerald City, the Capital, that Cloud City from BioShock….

Mulling what solidarity means w these facts

Do I dare throw my hat in to join a community board? I mean, the worst thing that could come of it is getting chosen and needing to commit to two years worth of meetings.

Feeling like a real adult, pissed off and looking for more commitments.

Do All The Things!

OMG WANNA YETT EVERONE AND EVERYTHING (excluding cats, they’re cool) INTO THE SUN.

MY RAGE AN ANNOYANCE KNOWS NO BOUNDS
Yesterday I was so happy, I realized I was only days away from my period and the crippling sadness, overwhelming negative emotional waves, and general bad vibes were nowhere to be found!

…guess what showed up today?

I guess I’ll take a day over seven but this still sucks

Donut is getting older, slowing down, sleeping more. Becoming harder to avoid the thought, ‘is this the last time?’

Nowhere near as sick as William. But it’s not going to get that far. She’s an old baby, my commitment to her is to keep her comfortable. Even if that means saying good bye sooner ❤️‍🩹

Fuckin A if this isn’t how I feel right now.

But gotta say, really appreciate Mayor Lee

Very different dynamics in that race but damn it feel good to see a politician I respect win against someone with endless money and bad ideas.

Good things can happen, the gov can/should work 4 the people
Took 37 years, but I’m finally jealous about one (1) New York thing.

I’ve been following a guy who loves IT on TikTok. He keeps explaining all the ways media misunderstands the magic of IT/Pennywise/Dead Lights/etc

I’m convinced Trump is basically the same kind of monster: one who has to convince you of *their* reality before it can eat you.

Screaming this at everyone I pass on the street
the lesson of jeffries is also that we cannot let the old guard pick the new leadership either. sorry schatz and murphy, but neither of you have stood up to schumer, and neither of you deserve to lead the caucus
Somehow we have to get rid of Schumer and Jeffries. They've clearly demonstrated they cannot be the leaders of the party in this moment

Dick Chaney is dead and none of you had the heart to tell me?? Had to find out the old fashion way: a text from my husband.

if you’re in california please vote yes on prop 50. as an anarchist i have severe criticisms of electoralism but having a blue House might slow down Project 2025 a little bit and that’s worth the effort of filling out a mail-in or swinging by a polling station if you’re able

Cancelled Spotify. Apple makes it really easy to move everything over and I had three free months of Apple Music.

The whole streaming model is unsustainable, I’ve gotta start investing in physical media. Maybe a library card and CD burner?
