Driving this afternoon and Classical Radio Boston played John Adams' "Short Ride in a Fast Machine"... which my spouse renamed "Loud Ride in a Loud Machine" when I played it ages ago. Now I can't hear it without thinking of that, and it always makes me smile 😊 Here's to great spouses 💜

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.
Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

Target: Beyond disappointed in your decision to drop deia initiatives. I'm in your primary demographic (white, middle-aged, affluent woman), but you've lost my business, and I'll be asking my family to join me. Costco will get my dollars from now on.

Found myself doomscrolling this afternoon and said fuck it, I'll go for a walk. It was cold (25°F) but so beautiful, watching the sun set. And I got to meet one of my neighbors, who had a progress pride flag up and said he appreciated our BLM sign. Must do this more often.

This is like the 5th completely different legal take I've read about this. Now I'm just waiting for @legaleagle.bsky.social to chime in...
The stories saying that the ERA, although duly ratified by 38 states as required by Article V, won’t become law until some functionary at the National Archives agrees to publish it, have no constitutional basis. I’ll be writing about this soon. Watch this space for a link.

Biden declares the ERA the law of the land — but it may not matter
The White House acknowledges the action won’t have the force of law.

BREAKING: In response to Joe Biden declaring ERA the law of the land, Republicans are proposing the 29th Amendment, which would officially establish that straight white men are awesome and deserve every break they get so everyone should just shut up and be cool about it.

45 followed Grover Cleveland in having two non-consecuvative terms. It would be bigly historical if he also took a page from William Henry Harrison 🥰

Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

The Supreme Court ruled corporations were allowed to donate unlimited amounts to politicians in 2010.
It only took them 6 years to take complete control of the government and 15 years to mark sure their voices are the only ones the masses ever hear again.

For Maths fans, 2025 is a square.
45² = 45 x 45 = 2025
Also,
9² x 5² = 2025
40² + 20² + 5² = 2025
My favourite?

I feel the same way about this as I did about Twitter initially (way back in the day): there's more that I'm interested in than I have time to read! It's kind of overwhelming. And I already spend too much time on social media! But here I am anyway. Hi!
