It doesnβt really matter how you feel about Hasan Pikerβ¦ the fact that a US citizen was detained just to be questioned about his political views is absolutely nuts π«
Naming a terrible product βRecallβ may be the most Microsoft thing Iβve heard in recent years
The number of people loudly and openly celebrating companies rolling back DEI initiatives makes me physically sick
Iβve come to this comment section to pitch refusing to call it anything but DGE because Musk is chronically online and will likely see and be unhappy π
I live comfortably and Iβd love to get a 5k check π doesnβt make any of this worth it but I was thinking today about how I need a 2-3k car repair and donβt know when Iβll be able to afford it. I agree they think it goes farther than it does but it still does make a difference for most people imo.
You can use a dog as a napkin if you want, they don't mind
fear of the past and (relative pain!)
Spoiler alert: if any health organization or, say, member of the Kennedy family tells you theyβre here to stop chronic health issues and does not mention masking, covid vaccination, or avoiding illnesses that cause chronic conditions, they are entirely full of shit.
Ida, this is a longer email about the 2024 election, where Democrats stand in 2025, and where we go from here. Itβs important, so we hope youβll stick around. Donald Trump won the presidential election in November, but that doesnβt mean our hard work was in vain. It might not feel like it, but all of our contributions β whether it was knocking on doors, making phone calls, or chipping in $5 β made a big difference. Republicans have an extremely slim House majority, and Democrats won battleground neck-and-neck Senate races because of the work we did together. Thatβs an important lesson. Weβre already seeing the consequences of Novemberβs election as Trumpβs Project 2025 agenda comes to life β but weβre also seeing how important it is that we have as many Democrats as possible in offices up and down the ballot, willing to fight back and protect the people they serve. Now, we need to elect more of them.
That work starts now. We need to organize early, invest in races across the country, and build the strongest possible Democratic Party to take on Trump and the GOP in 2026 and beyond. But we canβt do it without your help. Your support today powers the movement that will defend our democracy, protect fundamental rights, and elect Democrats who will fight for all of us. Every dollar helps us mobilize voters, strengthen our infrastructure, and push back against the damage Trump and his allies are already doing. We know this wonβt be easy. But if we stay engaged, invest in the right places, and keep doing the work, we can win. Weβve done it before, and with your help, weβll do it again. Thank you for staying in this fight. The Democrats
I donβt know if the Democratic Party could make it any more clear that they have no interest in doing anything but profiting off of everything happening π
EVERYONE: you had one job
DEMOCRATS: and with your donation of $5 today, we can start to consider doing that one job
Maybe the dinosaurs voted for the asteroids.
Iβve found the key to not losing my mind while America dies is spending half my day watching Dimension 20
If you don't think, you can't be stupid.
Hey, wacky thought:
Apply the many many laws that already exist.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
if the Democrat party was your doctor, they would take a look at you and say βyou should really go to the doctor.β
Pretty sick of listening to politicians panic about China while ignoring the implosion of our own government tbh
Maybe uh⦠reconsider current priorities
We know. What are you planning to do about it?
You are MEMBERS OF CONGRESS.
If they threaten you with arrest for trying to access a site you are lawfully entitled to access, YOU MAKE THEM FUCKING ARREST YOU.
YOU MAKE THEM SLAP THE CUFFS ON A CONGRESSMAN LIVE ON TV, YOU MAKE THEM FUCKING DO IT.
remember when it used to be fun to be online
Surely by now they understand that Trump screwing up doesnβt make up for them having no platform or ever doing anything??
The only leaders I can think of who have come close to giving us what weβre looking for in recent years are @aoc.bsky.social and @sanders.senate.gov, but theyβre still trapped in the useless (β¦unless youβre extremely wealthy) Democratic Party.
Exactly. The left has been screaming into the void for leaders who have a decent platform for years, and instead weβve progressed to this place where the entire platform of βleftistβ (centrist) leaders is βbut Trump is bad!!β, which isnβt a platform or anywhere near enough.
& itβs not bad to call your reps. Do it. It canβt hurt. But I have a feeling history is going to look back on this and see that being the main course of action as a mistake.
