🤣 I’m a new cat owner, and my little guy is a black cat. I love how weird these little voids are.

You know, you can demand that Democrats be better people? It’s not against the law.

No you don't understand bro we need to abandon another minority group to win. I know it didn't work last time but come on bro just trust me. We just need to alienate another group of marginalized people and their loved ones and we'll definitely win the election this time

I keep thinking about this quote from “one day, everybody will have been against this.”

"There's immense persuasive power to the notion that the only alternative to mainstream Democratic politics is fascistic Republicanism. Who are Muslim Americans going to turn to? The Arab authoritarians from whom so many of them escaped?
China, where Muslims are regularly thrown into concentration camps? Russia, where political opponents are assassinated as a matter of course?
It's a kind of thinking predicated on the implicit belief that, for certain people, the only choice is between negations of varying severity. The system does not work for you, was never intended to work for you, but as an act of magnanimity on our part, you may choose the degree to which it works against you."

This quote from Omar El Akkad’s book “one day, everyone we’ll have always been against this” sums up how I feel about anti-trans democrats not being taken seriously as a major problem:

This boy right here keeps wanting to escape outside. I’m the meanest pet owner ever because I won’t allow it. Hell no. Outdoor cats don’t tend to live long lives

Yeah. 5/5 stars. Everybody needs to read this book by @rephuffman.bsky.social

I figured out how to use green screen with Microsoft Teams today. I made my cat my background.

I think that’s a great idea and Chris can ask you about all the 💩 you share on Twitter. 🥰🥰

Rachel, are you talking about your husbands opponent in the primaries? Angie Nixon? You can't say her name even though that's who he is running against right now? This really is a horrible post. From my understanding he won't debate her and also won't even acknowledge he is running against her? Help me understand. He also won't answer questions from creators that wanted to interview him at a democratic event?

Why would he be asking that if he’s not concerned about it either?

Limited your post interactions after trying to call out a black woman for doing the same. Not a very principled stance, my sister in Christ.

So you’re pro ICE? Interesting flag in your screen name

- Stop the Lebanon War Powers Resolution
— Send Israel $26 billion more in aid after it killed 34,000+ people
— Send Israel another $17.6 billion in aid (a failed bill Biden would've vetoed)
- Ban the State Department from citing Gaza Ministry of Health death tolls
- Sanction ICC officials as they sought justice against Israeli war criminals
- Express "disgust" at South Africa's suit accusing Israel of genocide & praise Biden spokesperson John Kirby calling the case
"meritless, counterproductive, and completely without basis in fact whatsoever" (Israel had already killed 25,000+ people at this point)
- Express "gratitude" for ICE
- Force through the TikTok sale, or ban it in the U.S. if it wasn't sold

Doesn’t this picture sum up what’s happening in this country? Trump gets richer. People are dying. They are detaining literal nuns. The left are fighting back.

I’m not being obtuse. You’re just wrong. You can condescend and curse at me all you want. I don’t give a fuck. You’re just wrong.

Executive orders are not legislation; they require no approval from Congress, and Congress cannot simply overturn them. Congress may pass legislation that might make it difficult, or even impossible, to carry out the order, such as removing funding. Only a sitting U.S. President may overturn an existing executive order by issuing another executive order to that effect

“One day, everyone will always have been against this.” 5/5 stars. This altered my brain chemistry. “To be accused of speaking too loudly about one injustice but not others by someone who doesn’t care about any of them is to be told, simply, to keep quiet.”

A lot has happened at 60 minutes in the last 10 days since Brian last posted about it. He’s such a partisan hack.
