6 years today the first COVID case was identified in a man in Wuhan marking the beginning of a global pandemic that changed the world. We are way less prepared today to face another pandemic than we were back then. This fact makes me sad.

There is no bottom for Trump. Or, it seems, for those who still support him.

Grand opening, grand closing.

X quietly disabled a new feature that showed which country an account was posting from when it revealed that lots of popular right wing MAGA accounts were being run from foreign countries like India and Nigeria.

This Bill Clinton shit with him allegedly a pitching to Donald is so genuinely funny. I don’t know why reality is stranger than fiction?

the reason I know social media and smartphones are the thing driving people politically insane is that you can just go to someone who is politically insane, and ask them some basic questions about what they believe, and it's all coming from social media and smartphones

“Why has virtually every country in the world seen an abrupt rise in extremist politics, especially on the far-right, starting at approximately the same date the iPhone was released”

I see the 'deportations and drone strikes' bullshit is still rampant. Someone might want to remind him the American people have unfortunately voted for deportations and drone strikes in two of the last three elections and it's not a 'dunk' anymore.
there's a perverted conservatism to a lot of the obama worship. i wish it was the good old days, when the guy ordering deportations and drone strikes seemed more statesmanlike

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

Explosive moment during tonight's NYC mayoral debate:

Cuomo: "He’s never dealt with the city council, he’s never dealt with the Congress..."

Mamdani: "I’ve never had to resign in disgrace...I have never hounded the thirteen women who credibly accused me of sexual harassment."

Sunday, I finally went out to see some of my friends for the first time in like nearly 7 months. That’s how bad my social life is. I’ll see most of the other gang again in three weeks as one of them has a 21st birthday party are going. It should be fun.

The replies to this are full of people yelling at Kat, a Palestinian-American politician, for not supporting the shooting of low-level staffers in DC, which has only had the effect of drawing coverage *away* from the genocide in Gaza & provided a pretext for future suppression of peaceful protests.
I’m horrified by the murder of two Israeli embassy staffers at an event in DC last night.

The fact that the gunman said he did it to “free Palestine” makes me nauseous. Murdering people for their nationality is never acceptable and this violence hurts Jews, Israelis, *and* Palestinians.

Two innocent young people, Israeli Embassy workers, were gunned down last night while leaving an event at the Capitol Jewish Museum. A murderer yelled “Free Palestine” and killed them. They were planning an engagement and a life together. There is no justification for this hatred and antisemitism.

the shooter didn't know they worked at the israeli embassy. they were standing outside of the capitol jewish museum. that they turned out to be israeli embassy staffers doesn't retroactively make killing random people walking out of a jewish institution okay.
This happened before they got shot, not after. Stop playing on the terms of the fascist regime. Non-violence will not win you anything. They were 2 Israeli embassy workers. They deliberately chose to work for a genocidal Nazi Regime. If they were wearing swastika armbands you wouldn't say the same
Palestinians and their supporters are currently being targeted by the U.S. government for alleged support for terrorism. Students are having their protests violently suppressed and their degrees revoked for the same. So to help them, you're going to commit an act of terrorism? Ingenious.

Asshole.

Biden getting cancer, an aggressive form of cancer is really, really sad. It ruined my Sunday. Wasn’t feeling the same going out with the family because of it. All I hope for is a swift recovery and remission.
