I think if Lorne Michaels wants to go to comedy heaven, they should redo the 2016 DJT episode with the baby Donald balloon replacing him in every sketch.

This is a big win for intellectual freedom and will have big implications in other ongoing lawsuits and future laws aiming to ban books.

Republicans are still trying to pass their Big Betrayal Bill.

They held the previous vote open for hours—and STILL don’t have their shit together.

Maybe the problem isn’t the vote count. Maybe it’s the bill.

You can hold the vote open all night…trash is still trash.

This list isn’t even complete, there are just too many to name, and honestly, people would stop reading. Turnout across the country was historic. Drop a shoutout in the comments if your city showed up!

From coast to coast, city streets to small town squares, you showed up. And it mattered.

Honored to announce: 12.1 million in attendance.

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.

There is always something you can do to gum up the works of fascism.

A story. Claude Cahun. The queer nonbinary French-Jewish photographer.

Nazis conquered France, were training soldiers on Jersey, where Cahun lived w/their partner, Marcel Moore.

They did disinfo & morale smashing via Surrealism.

I only recently learned that this is the original Rosie The Riveter . The poster we all think of was one created by the Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company. They took the propo image and localized it.

One of my pet peeves as an environmental journalist is when people go on and on about how "toxic" our environment is.

Bitch, compared to what?

100 years ago women were literally eating radium (radioactive substance) for work

Lead was in everything

So was arsenic /1

I did this to a guy I used to work with. Took him three days to figure it out.

No, he wasn't very bright.
Take a screenshot of your desktop icons, set this as your wallpaper, and then hide all the shortcuts.
Remove random keys from all the keyboards. Stack all the chairs into a single conference room, lock it and jam gum into the lock. Wait until they're inside the parking garage then lower the gate and secure it. Let the air out of their tires. Shove some dead fish into their tailpipe.

Look if there is anything my brief time dealing with the DSA taught me it is that a group of dedicated nerds with a book of parliamentary procedure acting in bad faith can obstruct the shit out of anything and grind an org to a halt. Get on it, Dems.

Jasmine Crockett, after accusing colleagues of castrating their Constitutional duty, said, “My job is to make sure we don’t have any kings or queens in this country, but it seems like you all have decided it’s going to be Mr. King and his queen. And y’all can pick which one is which.”

Workplace sabotage is a lost art.
I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons
