Woke as hell. Science nerd. Love animals (herps especially), books, cooking, and people who appreciate 'good trouble'. Used to like politics. Community, righteous anger, and dark humor will help us pull through this together - I hope.

Yeah you know what we’re not going to do as another pandemic looms on the horizon?? This ableist nonsense about age and pre-existing conditions that is meant to trick people into not caring about each other enough to disregard basic public health precautions.

My favorite part of Star Wars was the scene where the Resistance leaders decide against trying to destroy the Death Star and instead kick in $1 million each for Palpatine's inauguration.

As the oligarchy begins to take shape, this meme seems more prescient than ever. They have convinced you that immigrants are your enemy while they pick your pockets at the same time, you’ve been duped. It’s the billionaires who are ruining this country,not migrants. Always has been. #RiseAndResist

If it’s genuinely no longer possible to run a large social media website that isn’t catering to the repulsive whims of professional bigoted harassers in 2024, then I think we need to be very clear about that, and then figure out how to destroy the conditions that led us to such a dark place.

whether you think it’s fascism or “competitive authoritarianism” or whatever, this era will be characterized by Trump using state power to lean on his private sector enemies, and most of them will capitulate.
JUST IN: A day after Trump and George Stephanopoulos were ordered to appear for depositions, they settled the case.
ABC has agreed to make a $15 million contribution to Trump presidential museum/foundation and air an apology for mischaracterizing the E. Jean Carroll verdict.

Ben Shapiro got a rude awakening when he went on a rant about the “evil” left’s anger over healthcare.
What he doesn’t get? People across the political spectrum have the same frustrations w/a broken system.
The comments were a brutal reminder that we’re all pissed off—and it’s not about politics.

"Under Biden, the United States became the first country to face an attempted coup and not only fail to punish the coup plotters but allow them to hold office and make laws. There is no parallel in world history. Even Hitler had a prison interlude between his putsch and his presidency."
Biden was designed to be a Placeholder President between two terms of Trump. This was obvious by spring 2021, when I first wrote about it, but people didn’t want to see it for what it was and got angry at me. Now the complicity is grinning. sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/behold-a-p...

I feel like I'm going crazy. Is it just me or are Dems I thought I could count on suddenly going soft on Trump and the other fascists? There's either dead silence from Dems or godawful "let's find common ground" bullshit. What is going on here?

let people enjoy the fall of a murderous demon who used chemical weapons on children for five fucking minutes
On Twitter a ton of accounts are just angrily replying and quote tweeting anyone happy that Assad fell as if we’re not extremely aware that rebels are a mixed bag and he may get replaced with a regime as bad or worse
Guys, most people know this *and* can be glad Assad’s regime collapsed
