Is it just me, or does anyone else find it frighteningly surreal that the terrible atrocities, injustices and war crimes of faraway lands that we studied in history books when we were kids are now being committed, promoted and even celebrated by our own U.S. government, on a daily basis?

usually if you ask experts why an empire fell they’ll say it’s nuanced and multifaceted, so i think it’s kind of cool that with America future historians will get to just say like “oh they took the idiot train to moronsville”

The Phelans ran the only bookstore in Vermillion, South Dakota.
But after the state passed a measure preventing transgender young people like their daughter from using girls’ bathrooms, they sold it and moved away.

A family opened a town’s first bookstore. A bathroom bill is driving them away.

The core problem isn’t that Trump can’t do math & doesn’t understand what it means to “cut prices” by more than 100% — rather, it’s that there are people who actually believe this can be true & an entire political movement & media ecosystem that encourage it.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.
Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

When your neighbor on the left is being dragged away by masked men and your neighbor on the right can't get an X-ray for their child, be sure to quickly explain that "both parties are the same" and whatnot.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.
