For all the talk about “defeating the left,” what do MAGA supporters actually expect? That half the country will just give in or leave? The left isn’t going anywhere—and won’t live under authoritarian rule. What’s their end game?

Saw this and it’s perfect because it requires math which is not their strong suit.

If you left Twitter/X it may be time to go back. We need voices of reason to push back on the crazies. You won’t change the most corrupted minds, but you can demonstrate that the sexism, racism, and cultism will not go unchallenged. You never know who may be watching from the sidelines.
And congrats to everyone who's still frequenting the Nazi bar -- apparently you're blending right in with the preferred clientele.
“the nazi bar is so much nicer now that the people who didn’t want to be at a nazi bar left”

Another dumb, stupid move by the most viciously incompetent administrations ever.
Eliminating a famous program that cost just $32 million but delivers an estimated $40 billion in annual savings on utility bills just as our nation faces increasing costs & soaring demands has to be one of the dumbest public policy choices on a very competitive list.

I got my email news headlines from @washingtonpost.com (I cancelled my actual subscription a while ago) and not a single mention of @corybooker.com ‘s historic speech on the Senate floor. Should have at least been on par with how much it will cost to buy Greenland 🙄 or Val Kilmer’s passing.

Why?

Senator @schatz.bsky.social I’d like an explanation, please.

Like most reasonable people, I have mined the mother load of emotions since the despicable display in the Oval Office yesterday. I fear many things about our mobster president, but this wanton destruction of nearly a century of containing totalitarian Russia is terrifying, with global implications.

It's rough out there, we are all just trying to keep our sense of sanity and hope together. Taking good care of ourselves is key, so I am sharing my vegeburger recipe I have kept secret for decades. Eat good, clean food. Your body, mind and soul will thank you.

Great opportunity on Cape Cod for an experienced resilience professional. Help make a difference. We need that now more than ever.
Great opportunity to work in climate resilience to benefit our village and our town!

The Town of Falmouth seeks a highly motivated, experienced professional to serve as its first Coastal Resilience Specialist.

Struggle remembering tasks? Use voice recognition tech to set reminders. "Hey Siri, set a reminder for 4PM to chop veggies for dinner." "Set a reminder for Friday to register my car." No reminder is too dumb. Use your amazing #adhd brain for the stuff it excels at, not minutiae.

Is it me or is #metabusinesssuite just a hot mess? Especially around managing notifications and messages.

Took a quick drive to pay respects to Madame Pele at Kilauea. The hike was worth it! Even before reaching the crater rim the clear night sky at altitude did not disappoint. Certainly the most spectacular eruption I’ve even seen there.

One of my passions is climate and I am honored to work with the great team at @resilientwoodshole.org - give them a follow if you would, perhaps even share a post that resonates with you. Every little bit helps move the needle.

#adhd tip - time your tasks. Take coffee grounds to compost and clean the French press? 2 minutes. Empty the dishwasher? 4 minutes. Makes it easier to complete that task in the future because the commitment isn’t undefined

So we rented a Mazda CX-90 for our family holiday, and the shifter has this unusual configuration where Park is up and to the left. More than once I have moved the shifter to the top, into Reverse, thinking I was in Park.

Innovation, or bad user experience design?
