I see we've reached the "The president is walking around on the roof while ranting about crazy bullshit and everyone will pretend this is totally normal" phase of the fall of America.

Never forget and never forgive the people who voted for this demented, tyrannical, confused, cruel, evil, idiot.

Screaming at these people works. They’re fundamentally wimps, we just have to actually DO the screaming instead of preemptively admitting defeat.

I am talking about my fellow Americans, not the Democrats. We actually need to scream, gang, not just complain that Schumer isn’t.

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

The entire construction of "street gangs" in america is 99% moral panic. To the extent that they exist at all, they're closer to sports fandoms than hierarchical organizations.
Local police departments help fuel the deportation machine by keeping gang lists that are based on hunches and hearsay, like the gang database that it took years of organizing and investigation to shut down here in Chicago:

It's incredible that, after all this time, he still doesn't know what a tariff is or what it does. If he keeps going like this — and he will — these will heavily impact everyday goods. The public *will* notice.
NEW: Trump is going to force Americans to pay more for coffee because Colombia refused to accept his deportation flights.

He announces immediate 25% tariffs on all Colombian goods, rising to 50% next week.

Diplomatic bullying of a supposed ally and economic self-harm.

It’s Day 6.

Oh wow.

Just look at this screenshot.

Read the red box then read the sentence above.

So many implications for women in these sentences.

Your reproductive health now includes the needs of men and the community.

Who gets to decide what spiritual wellness is. That’s a fucking cult right there.

In 2016 they said if Hillary won she would enact a “vagenda of manocide” and holy shit does that sound appealing now.

There are wolves inside of you, wild and free.
There's also a grizzled raccoon who's seen too much, a wine drunk wombat with restless ennui, and a sleepy little hedgehog who often feels the weight of the world.

Since this has come up repeatedly in the last few days—no, you do not need to take down your bird feeder because of avian flu. The USDA is not worried about spillover from songbirds. The wild reservoirs are WATERFOWL.

I made vegan peppermint bark this week. I did not take a picture of the full sheet pan, so this will have to suffice. It's quite yummy.

This is outrageous: “Staffers were also told that it applies to every aspect of the health department's work: Employees could not send out press releases, give interviews, hold vaccine events, give presentations or create social media posts encouraging the public to get the vaccines.”
Louisiana forbids public health workers from promoting COVID, flu and mpox shots
An NPR investigation found Louisiana health officials told staff to stop promoting vaccines for COVID, flu and mpox, holding flu shot events or otherwise encouraging the public to get those vaccines.

Polio has been detected in wastewater in NY for some time - so it’s out there and probably elsewhere too. For those of us on the older side who were vaccinated against polio decades ago, the CDC recommends a booster. Check with your healthcare provider to see if you should get one.

Fun fact: If someone quotes a post of yours in a way that is unwelcome (as is commonplace on Twitter/X) there is a tool to combat the unwanted attention. Simply click the three dot menu on the quote post & click "Detach quote". This removes your post from their quote post. Useful to know, do share!

I’ve said it before, will doubtless say it again: These folks are going to be permanently resentful because they’re seeking political power as a substitute for cultural power, and it’s never going to give them what they actually want.
I love how far afield this is from any problem government can address. “Now that Trump won people have to like and agree with me and not tell me I suck anymore.” bsky.app/profile/yash...
2. “For the last four years, very acutely, and I know it preceded these four years as well, but there's been kind of a pressing down. A pressing down and kind of limiting what people can say.”
