Remember that literally every single one of the billionaire freaks behind generative AI has very publicly aligned themselves with trump and his policies Their CEO's are in and out of the oval office for photo ops, they're donating mountains of money to him, they're literally getting military titles

If Trump gets to use a 1.5 pt popular vote margin as legitimacy for the American gestapo, I think anything D+8 or above means we get to do public hangings

Please help if you can! Queen City Cat Lounge is an adoption center I visit frequently here in Vermont and their window was vandalized last night. Fortunately they had double glass for the cats' safety, but the broken outer window needs to be fixed ASAP. www.gofundme.com/f/repair-and...
Poster with a black and white screenshot of security footage showing a man peering into the front window of a cat adoption center. Text says "please help Queen City cat lounge recover. last night someone broke the window at Queen City cat lounge - an adoption center that has placed hundreds of cats in loving homes. the cats are all safe but the window needs to be replaced quickly!"

We should expect a lot more of this 'i was wrong about trump' bullsh*t especially after the midterms. Sarah is completely correct: don't fall for it.

Watching people who propped up this corrupt disaster of an administration for their own enrichment start to slowly back away with their hands up will be good for short term dunks, but thats not good enough. It should be a reputational nuke from which these people never recover.

This was 1960. By 1964, the GOP had implemented their "Southern Strategy," where they intentionally appealed to all racist US voters. The majority of white voters haven't voted for a Dem president since. That's 66 years!🤦🏿‍♂️ For people still in denial, listen to GOP campaign folk tell it themselves.🤷🏿‍♂️

I'll never forget the student journalists at Columbia who continued to cover the university bringing in an army of cops to dismantle the Pro-Palestine student encampments. Even when the folks at the SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM were prohibited from covering it, they stayed and kept covering. Amazing kids

On this day in 1994, the Clinton administration's heathcare reform plan was declared "dead" by Congress. Over 30 years later, the US is still the only industrialized country without universal healthcare. This should be a national outrage.

Grandiloquent Word of the Day @grandiloquentwords.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
Flamfew [FLAM-fyoo] (also “Flamefew”) (n.) 1. Moonlight reflected upon water. Used in a sentence: “The flamfew glittered upon the ornamental koi pond, lending an air of enchantment to a place where three governesses had mysteriously vanished and the fish had grown inordinately corpulent.”
A "Grandiloquent Word of the Day" meme for “Flamfew,” defined as “moonlight reflected upon water.” An antique engraving shows a full moon low over the sea, its light shimmering across the waves as a sailing ship passes on the horizon. The example sentence reads: “The flamfew glittered upon the ornamental koi pond, lending an air of enchantment to a place where three governesses had mysteriously vanished and the fish had grown inordinately corpulent.”

Actually I think they do. Removing healthy people who have few/no claims from an insurance pool is a good way to send the pool into a death spiral. I think they’re doing this deliberately to try to weaken the ACA. @charlesgaba.com what do you think?

The big-box retailer said the money was reinvested to give "value back to our members." It’s more than a third of the total tariff refunds the company expects.
