Pride is a party and a riot. You don't get to celebrate if you're not willing to fight, and this year, it's time to fight.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty.

Interracial marriage did not cross 50% approval in the US until 1996, when I was 30 years old. Good political messaging drives opinion, it doesn't follow it.

I’m not an economist but I think there’s a 1:1 correlation between union density, labor militancy and your leading politicians having hard-won skillsets for perpetual conflict and mobilizing obstructionist assholery under an authoritarian environment. Too many lawyers and not enough shop stewards!

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc
DOGE says it has saved $55 billion in federal spending so far, but its website only accounts for $16.6 billion of that
DOGE Says It’s Saved $55 Billion, Itemized Data Show Far Less
The federal cost-cutting effort dubbed the Department of Government Efficiency says it has saved $55 billion in federal spending so far, but its website only accounts for $16.6 billion of that.

It’s not a “savings” if you’re getting fewer services in exchange. I’m still paying the same taxes!
