@dansavage.bsky.social can you get Dr. Sharabi on the show to talk about dating apps? She seems interesting!

@jessnevins.bsky.social Just picked up a copy of "Who Was Guilty" by Warne/Macy.

Thanks for the recommendation and may Ingraham rot in the ninth circle of hell with the rest of the betrayers.

Trans rights and trans liberation now. Anyone with a heart or a soul is sick of this evil shit and how it's taken over the UK - not to mention it's the tip of the spear, as we've been warned by our trans siblings so many times.

No forgiveness or pity for transphobes, in government or outside of it.

Is Rahm Emmanuel okay? Was he high when Jon Stewart interviewed him?

Who would have thought that being pro-Canadian and anti-Russian was a partisan issue?

It took almost 2 years but I have now listened to every episode of @strictscrutiny.bsky.social.
They were fantastico!

I didn't think Trump could get more embarrassing but here we are. This is a disgrace.

@strictscrutiny.bsky.social I have a question for the professors. If a president defies a court order, what can be done? Jackson ignored the Court after the Indian Removal was passed. What can the courts do if a president refuses to comply with a court order? Clearly Congress won't do anything.

@jessnevins.bsky.social Just listened to History of Comics in 500 Issues episode on Action Comics #1. Great quote from Brad Ricca's book. Loved the episode!

@democrats.org @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social Jon Stewart had hard hitting questions for Hakeem Jeffries, who didn't have any good answers. Jon is correct, Democrats need their own version of Project 2025 so Americans know what they stand for.

Getting rid of DEI measures is just affirmative action for mediocre white men

@strictscrutiny.bsky.social Kate's optimism is the only thing getting me out of bed in the morning at this point.

Re: EO about schools and patriotic education, is there any way that Trump can enforce it if educators simply ignore the directive?

@weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social Jon nailed the DEI issue. Christie didn't get it. He has no facts to back up his fantasy that all DEI hires are incompetent. I also appreciated Jon's comment that America has never been a meritocracy.
January 31, 2025 at 8:32 PM
Jon Stewart is absolutely correct. Democrats need to stop telling us they aren't Trump and start telling us what they are going to do if they ever get back into office.

@democrats.org

#1 priority for Dems should be outlawing gerrymandering.

I don’t care if you’re a relative, a fantasy novelist, or an elected official, transphobia is manufactured outrage and transphobe are trash.

None of America’s problems are cause by trans people. None.

But a LOT are caused by bigots.

It's never surprised me when a guy that Pete Hegseth got away with raping someone. But when it all came out, they usually resigned from their position with some bullshit story about spending more time with their families. Now, if you're a rapist, you get every Republican vote in the Senate.
