If they were real patriots, they'd get edema like Dear Leader, and those shoes would fit just fine.

Maybe dab a little foundation on the backs of their hands to complete the effect!

Just remembered a slice of “This is a university. Not all lessons happen in the classroom.”

Protesting Student: Don’t touch me! I know my rights.
UCPD: *OUR* rights.
PS: What?
UCPD: Our rights. They’re not yours or mine.
PS: Wait. You’re not arresting me?
UCPD: Nope. Just headed to the bathroom.

Still undiagnosed, but I will never forget or forgive how the adults in my life basically laughed me off when I told them I was learning disabled in multiple ways.

Mine:

It’s okay to have a casual interest. Even as a woman.
Or a black person.
You can just like the stuff without having to develop an encyclopedic knowledge in order to fend off gatekeepers.

Trump Says the Iran War Is Nearly Won but Israel Has Other Ideas Israel is sticking with its goal of creating the conditions for regime change in Tehran.

“President Trump’s suggestions that the war with Iran might soon be over are bringing a new problem to the fore: Israel and the U.S. have different ideas on when to end the conflict and under what conditions.”

As I have said repeatedly, the only move the anti-trans side has is pretending that they've found a scandal, then describe the way medicine (or medical research) works in every other field but trans care in breathless, scandalized tones.

“He does what?”
“He likes to guess their shoe size and orders it for them.”
“And they don’t fit?”
“No, he’s comically wrong. Like, every time.”
“And they wear them anyway?”
“Yeah. See, that’s how you know how sycophantic they are. It’s symbolism.”
(beat)
“Eh. We can’t do that. It’s too on the nose.”

As long as you don’t need gas, groceries, affordable healthcare, retirement savings or constitutional rights, things aren’t so bad.

The shingles vaccine is incredible #learnsomethingnew #sciencefacts #vaccineswork TikTok video by Alex Falcone

This video is imparting genuinely amazing news about the shingles vaccine, but also contains a description of vaccines that made me laugh so hard I had to sit down. “We inject the dead version so that when the live one shows up it knows we’ve killed before” is both accurate and SO FUCKING FUNNY

Speaker Johnson could call the House back and vote to fund TSA today.

Let’s be clear: long lines at the airports are a direct result of Republicans insisting ICE be able to defy court orders, kidnap and murder people and face zero consequences.

Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"

This flippant response is absolutely unacceptable from the Commander in Chief.

11 days into Trump's war with Iran and he still cannot give the American people a clear answer on why he started this war and how long it will last.

A shocking number of people responding to this video clearly did not watch the video. David is extremely opposed to the Trump administration's terrorization of immigrant communities. He is describing serious problems with the current laws which make accountability difficult.
