When will we be RID of that orange pile of steaming excrement??
The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

The last time I saw such a self-inflicted squandering of public support was probably when JKRowling decided to become an overt transphobic asshole.
NEW Quinnipiac poll of registered U.S. voters:
• Half now say Israel is committing genocide in Gaza
• Only 47% see backing Israel as a U.S. interest, down from 69% in 2023
• 60% oppose more military aid to Israel
• 58% favor UN recognition of a Palestinian state

Trump minimizes domestic abuse during a talk at the Museum of the Bible: "Things that take place in the home, they call crime ... If a man has a little fight with the wife, they say this was a crime, see?"

This is not surprising, but so appalling. About 180 FEMA staff members knew they would be risking their jobs to communicate the degradation of emergency response under Trump tells you how bad things are.
We can't say we were not warned, but the people who warned us are being punished for doing so.

I am seriously loving #LegendOfTheFemaleGeneral! Enjoyed the novel, and the drama is possibly even more enjoyable, adding some comedy to the story. Wish all the episodes were out!

I'm sorry, but this is bullshit. One can be critical of Israel - and certainly of Netanyahu, who has single-handedly done more to harm Israel globally that anyone or anything in recent years - without being antisemitic.

I recently read and enjoyed #TheCoronersDiary, and just found out it’s now a Cdrama on #IQIYI.
Anyone watching?
Unlike #ThePrincessesGambit novel where I loathed every character, especially the FL, I loved the characters in TCD.
But dramas are different. I love TPG drama! Hope TCD is good.
