okay i'm so tired of having to explain this every time the chiefs play in front of a national audience. yes, all the chiefs players are married to each other. no, they DO NOT all have sex with each other at halftime. they're more professional than that, and there's a lot more to marriage than that

We must become noise detectors y'all.
This is what explains Musk’s recent obsession with backing the far right in Europe and going on about making Europe great again. This and the racism.

Everything else is noise.

Big manly men, so scared of a bit of chill 😂

Or, you know, itty bitty 'crowd size' 🤏
It’s 25 degrees in Kansas City where the Chiefs and Texans are playing for a full stadium. Guess it’s only dangerous when it’s an inauguration.

Does anyone know if ICE is really showing up at the shelters in LA?

Would be so vile, but, it's ICE, so ...
I will be doing my best to cover where and when immigration raids are happening.

I think it is important to be aware to let your communities know.

Buckle up
Elections have consequences. Next time listen to me when I say Republicans are garbage human beings.
Somebody’s gotta pay for all those corporate tax breaks. Republicans want to begin with a $192 billion tax increase on single parents:

Unfortunately, timely.
THE BOOK OF THE UNNAMED MIDWIFE by @megelison.bsky.social.

What a wonderful novel. Follows a midwife wandering a post-plague America secretly supplying birth control to outnumbered, enslaved women. Humane & complicated & messy & dire & inspiring. And, wow, TIMELY.

Yeah.
Y’see, the thing about David Lynch is that he was very, very funny.

What a fucking miserable little loser this bedsore is.
Pathetic incel loser Elon Musk paid a gamer to pretend to be him, so Elon would look cool to other gamers.

What a sad little loser this manchild is. Even with all the money in the world, nobody likes him, so he tries to buy friends.

CNN head honcho Mark Thompson called up Jim Acosta -- who occasionally gets better ratings than the network's nightly hosts -- and asked him to move over to the midnight to 2 AM shift, which is the graveyard for cable.

California puts in their share of federal taxes ffs
@gavinnewsom.bsky.social on Mike Johnson considering conditioning disaster aid: "Never in California did we question whether or not we, as taxpayers in the largest state in the Union, should support the people of Louisiana at a time of emergency and need. We’d never condition it."

If half the people on a ship do stupid things that sink the ship, even though the other half of the people on board did everything they could to keep the ship from sinking, you don't deny everyone life rafts to spite the stupid half.
I get it when people say "well they voted for this, I hope they get what they deserve. "

I get that sentiment, i really do... But there are millions of people who DIDN'T vote for this, whose lives will be ruined. That's why I can't throw my hands up and say oh well. I keep fighting for them.
