also, if I’m not mistaken, the FCC chair just affirmed his plan to end free speech in America in a reply to the guy who played the wheelchair kid on Glee
Hate to get all partisan, but it should be legal to mock the president.
you need to be mean and uncouth and callous and unrepentant because there is a rapidly intensifying hunt to suppress and punish wrongthink and the more people who are on some shit, the less harm that hunt can cause. “i am spartacus” but for being an asshole.
Democracy, more than anything is a practice. I always think that the Civil Rights Movement succeeded because from the Civil War black Americans built institutions: universities, fraternities and sororities, churches, that engaged them in democratic practice.
People want everything to be a binary between dooming and “we’re so back” but I’ll just say this is both a really troubling attack on press freedom and an open admission that your regime is fragile enough to feel threatened by Jimmy fucking Kimmel
this one right here.
it's hard to see anything as a turning point, honestly, since there have already been so many "this should be a turning point" moments.
I ignored the murder of Melissa Hortman. Here’s why I’ll be talking about the murder of Charlie Kirk all day today.
by most liberal pundits
“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind
I will say that it is CONVENIENT that all these Dem politicians are giving us written statements explicitly stating their respect for a Nazi who has said explicit Nazi things.
If we ever get to the other side of this regime, it will be nice to have these voluntary confessions in hand
Sometimes I'll be like "omg | relate so hard to ALL of these memes" then see they're from some account named like “memes for aging nostalgia obsessed existentially fragile depressives with bad posture” and be like oh
you cannot be disparaged by your own words... people cannot attack you with your own ideas
if ones words are repeated and they are viewed unfavorably that is not a reflection of the one who repeats
it is a reflection of the author
An instantly-leaked internal bulletin at the politicized federal law enforcement agencies just so happens to say what the Trump admin and its allies want it to say.
This is how it works in authoritarian regimes, the cops are too busy with propaganda and repression to actually solve crimes.
On Fox News, the anchor Will Cain choked up on-air as he read aloud President Trump's announcement of the death of Charlie Kirk. "I don't know where we go from here as a news program," Mr. Cain told viewers, "and I don't know where we go from here in America." Megyn Kelly, streaming live on YouTube, was tearful even before the news was confirmed, sobbing with her guest, Glenn Beck of The Blaze. She described Mr. Kirk as a friend who supported her even when her relations with the MAGA world were strained. "I am so sorry to be bringing you this news," Ms. Kelly told her audience. Later
They have never, ever expressed anything close to this level of pain and sympathy for school shooting victims.
In honor of Charlie Kirk, I, Gavin Newsom, will behave even worse toward the trans community
Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.
We took the paywall down on this one. defector.com/how-the-fuck...
The Times is very misinformed. There is no evidence that the virus has evolved to be less dangerous. Herd immunity to SARS-CoV-2 has not been achieved. The immunity that exists is due to both natural infection and vaccination, but is short-lived and will decline with reduced vaccine availability.
My brother if you are worried about Michigan Ohio violence I suggest you do not watch the buckeyes play the wolverines
Massive walkout underway at CDC.
RFK jr. must resign so that we can be safe.
Even in the darkest of times, people laugh, create art, are silly, and bring pleasure to themselves and others. Reject the urge to shit on people's good time. You don't like football or Swift, or even what she represents? Fine. Move along. We are allowed & MUST have fun.
Library Vote
After a heated race marked by legal disputes, lawn signs, and fervent online discourse, voters cleared the way for an expansive new downtown library. Read the full story here annarborobserver.com/library-vote...
Libraries are nice because sometimes we just need to go somewhere organized, but preferably not someone’s home so we don’t have to feel like giant disaster people for not having it all together like they do
NBC News Chicago headline: 5th grader says friend saved him before getting shot in Minneapolis church shooting
It shouldn't be up to American children to save each other from getting shot.
It's the job of American adults to stop shootings from happening in the first place.
Ban assault weapons again now.
someone please remix trump's national guard guys picking up trash in dc with the "bad boys" soundtrack
Maybe I’m not overthinking, maybe I’m just regular thinking about stuff that shouldn’t be happening
University of Michigan Hospital are spineless cowards willing to comply in advance at the expense of trans children's health and well-being.
Nothing but shame to all who refuse to defend trans youths access to life-saving care.
Reminder HRT saves lives limits on HRT cost cost them.
