The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

my single favorite joke in seven seasons of “Deep Space Nine” is when Kira storms out of Sisko’s office in a rage because she found the Cardassians’ dossier on her activities with the Shakaar cell in which Gul Dukat had labeled her a “minor” terrorist

I laugh every time
could you imagine planning and executing a Louvre caper only to have some asshole in the paper describe you as a “minor” social media star
i am so ready for the eight-part docuseries about all of this

Amazon using obvious AI slop on their homepage to advertise their new finder feature. They must have laid off all the humans who would check this last week.

Patel's girlfriend performed at Penn State last weekend. A government jet arrived at State College Regional Airport, according to its FAA registration, with an address listing the FBI HQ. The plane then flew to Nashville, where his girlfriend lives.

All on the taxpayer’s dime.

strange that Hegseth refuses to meet men with beards and yet there are multiple photos of him with Benny Johnson.

Andy Ngo succeeded in inspiring violence yet again
Last night in Portland, Portland city council person @candaceavalos.bsky.social woke up to her car and home on fire from suspected arson. She has been a target of the far-right for months, by people like Andy Ngo, who has admitted on court record that his posts targeting people can lead to violence.

The far-right are saying the quiet bit out loud

As someone who is both white and black, I feel comfortable calling this out for what it is

Because I’m pretty sure the likes of Arron Banks don’t include me in their “white” Britain because I have a bit too much pigment

This is racism

If your national political party can’t protect everyone, it can’t protect anyone
I hate to say it but the majority of the country is not going to die on the hill of trans rights. We can’t protect ANY groups if we can’t win a national election, so purity tests only serve to make specific groups feel triumphant. That’s not “erasing” them; it’s long-horizon strategy.

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."
