This is could well be a historic midterm for Democrats.

Don’t waste it on centrists who won’t come through when it matters. Run vocal progressives.

You won’t end Trumpism without anti-corruption crusaders and warriors for social and economic justice who believe in taxes & big, universal programs.
Those claiming Dems should retreat on racial justice aren't hard-headed realists, they're pushing against the electoral tide rather than leaning into it. The story of Gen Z isn't about racist backlash or red-pilled young men. It's the most racially progressive generation in American history. 🧵

Saw some great standup last night. Also saw some dudes just recite some straight up unfunny not-clever hate speech about autistic people, women, and trans people. That didn’t work great in The Grove, which was a small comfort. But damn. Those dudes were flown out and paid to do it.

Not the biggest fashionista but even I know who Kenneth Cole is and every statement knocks it out of the park here. I'm so impressed with his use of his power!

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

TIL because my 2015-2021 workplace is in the shadow of the Manhattan Project I can seek reimbursement for my cancer-related expenses.

I cannot even begin to describe how that feels.

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

Democrats sitting here, tweeting and posting to social media instead of creating innovative strategies to stop this draconian nonsense. The GOP did everything in their power to resist Biden’s policies at every level of government they still controlled.

I find it interesting that we know the monetary value of museum artefacts when they are stolen but not when indigenous communities want their stuff back.

The East Wing is traditionally the domain of the First Lady. Hard not to see this as a family metaphor too.

I'm imagining going back to 2000 and telling my high school self that in the future, juggalos are an unalloyed force for good while Harry Potter is financing the rise of global fascism.
Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.

The Nice Guys is an extremely fun movie. Annoyed I waited nine years to see it, and even more pissed that Angry fucking Birds killed it at the box office.

The pictures of people out in this miserable weather celebrating hope and freedom and standing up and fighting back for us when it is legitimately terrifying to do so are absolutely everything. Also someone sent me this pic as a “saw this and thought of you” and I’m 🥰🥰 🥰 #NoKings #stl #NoKingsSTL
