Somebody needs to tell @schumer.senate.gov to stop playing with his imaginary friends and listen to real voters.

The Baileys aren't real, but people missing their SNAP payments and about to have their insurance doubling or more? They're real.

Don't cave, Chuck. For once in your life, don't cave.

There is an old joke about a teacher asking, "What did Watson & Crick discover?" & a voice from the back of class muttering, "Rosalind Franklin's notes."
🧪
This is the seminal paper written by Watson & Crick outlining the structure of DNA.

Rosalind Franklin should have been co-author on this publication.

She was just given a meager acknowledgement.

Hey.

You feel this feeling that you feel right now, when there's a huge electoral rebuke of Trump and all of his dipshits, when even rural PA is voting in full slates of Democrats? You feel how good that feels, when the first Muslim woman is elected to state-level office on the day Cheney died?

"Tzefardea Tzedek" (Frog of Righteousness)

As soon as the Portland Frog became a meme, Jewish social media blew up with jokes about the 2nd Passover plague - tzefarde'a (frogs) - and the Rabbinical commentary around it. I knew I had to make a calligraphy piece encompassing all of it. (more in alt.)

Cap City Video Lounge in Tallahassee, Florida
Tucked into Tallahassee’s Railroad Square Art District is the only remaining movie rental store in the area: Cap City Video Lounge. Founded by Kevin Cole in 2016, the shop houses an extensive collection of DVDs, Blu-rays, and even VHS tapes, many of them rare or obscure titles you won’t stumble across on a streaming platform. Beyond rentals and sales, the Lounge is also a gathering space.

Hey, did I mention that the discontinued shirts and skirts which remain are included in this, as well as sample shoes and boots, pins, stickers, all kinds of stuff?

Please help me get this stuff out of my house. It's already discounted and now more on sale.
Okay, we never put Boneyard on clearance, but all Boneyard, Closeout, and stuff we have too much of has to get out of my house to make way for new stuff so please buy it!

cancelling Disney+ and Hulu is well and good but it’s not a huge hit on an individual level

but Disney adults? people who spend real money at the parks? you guys can make a dent, call ‘em up and tell them your vacation is postponed until they pull their heads out of their asses
Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

A pitch for those of you canceling Disney+/Hulu this week would be to use that cash and subscribe to PBS/PBS Passport.

Public media is foundational to our democracy and supporting @pbs.org is just about the best value for your dollar. Plus, there are so many British mysteries!!!

look, it is comforting to think that your political opponents are, at the end of the day, just people like you who really want us all to live together as Americans.

it's just very obviously not *true* in MAGA's case, as you can tell through, well, what they say and do.

The Wall Street Journal. The Guardian. All the other outlets who failed to confirm their reporting.

I want to see fewer cowardly, shrugging "editor's notes" on these stories and more statements of "wow, we really failed in our reporting on a grave matter, and here's how we're going to do better."

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.
