I swapped phones recently.

Same number, same service, same phone manufacturer. Just a new model.

I now get a minimum of 20 spam calls and 10 spam texts a day.
I swear to God I'm about a week away from changing my phone number. This should be illegal.

Oh now they have the right-wing antivaxxer Whitney Cummings on there.

Stewart really cooked his boomer brain while retired, didn't he?

NEW: This week, Daily Show host Jon Stewart introduced his audience to Jenin Younes, describing her as a courageous civil rights attorney who had been canceled by both the right and left and therefore “must be doing something right.”

Really, she spent years undermining public health—and Democrats.

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable.

Biden himself said they were fabricated!

Some immigrant parents, fearful of their children facing similar uncertainty if they were to be arrested, detained or deported are taking the extreme step of legally transferring parental authority to teachers, co-workers, fellow parishioners and neighbors.
Fearing ICE, parents make plans for their children’s care
Some families give legal authority to others to make key decisions about a child’s life if a parent is detained and deported.

If you are:
-a leftist
-who does not like the DNC
-and lives in a red district
-that is rural or suburban

I encourage you to check out your local Dems and maybe get involved. Red districts are often ignored by national Dems; you may have more influence to push left locally than you think.

I think a lot of you either are forgetting or choosing to not remember how cyclical baseball is. In the late '90s, everyone was convinced that the Yankees had broken baseball. A decade later, the A's and Rays had people screaming about how signing big-name free agents ruined your chance of winning.

i taught a course on "hope" in Fall 2024 and after some theory (not a ton of it out there!), the readings were almost all Black Americans who saw the obstacles arrayed against the cause of racial justice, knew it was possible (likely!) they'd fail, and yet continued
i have been reading Tom Ricks’ “Fighting the Good War” which is a military analysis of the civil rights movement, and one thing that comes abundantly across is that movement leaders and ordinary people made it a practice to refuse to fall into despair and cynicism.

I saw Ryan Broderick dooming on here, and I want to remind everyone that he was fired from Buzzfeed News for plagiarism in a dozen articles.

I've edited and caught people doing plagiarism many times, so I say this with authority: wanton plagiarists are incapable of giving you *any* insight.
