It strikes me that Republicans are often put in their place when they think they're being clever. The Polish Deputy Prime Minister completely humiliates Anna Paulina Luna here, though to be honest, that isn't difficult to do with her….

North America’s largest wildlife overpass is working. I-25 collisions near Castle Rock are down 91%.
In the 10 months since the wildlife crossing between Larkspur and Monument opened, there’s been just 2 reported collisions

Here's something I wish more people understood about AI-generated code: **Just because it worked yesterday doesn't mean it'll behave the same way tomorrow.** In one of my secure coding classes, nearly 60 developers gave the same AI assistant the same task and security prompt. 1/3

We need to set the record straight about this because right wingers are trying to compare $5 gas under Biden to gas prices under Trump. Yes, gas hit $5 under Biden. For about 10 days in June 2022, following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Then prices came back down. #BlueWaveIn20Days

We've gotta learn to believe these authoritarians are who they say they are the first time they tell us. Federal agents searched Rep. Ilhan Omar's home this morning. Her office says, "The Congresswoman has done nothing wrong." Here are some things I'm not seeing enough of in our online chatter. 🧵

7. The goal is to make people afraid to show up. So we show up. Naturalized citizens, your vote counts just as much as mine. If early voting is open where you live, bank your vote and bring somebody with you. If you're scared to go, holler. You won't be alone.

This whole thread is great, but one of the things I found weird about the statement was that it said the warrant was "judicially authorized search warrant" but that is kind of a roundabout way of saying what should have been said in plain language.

Netflix is laying off 1,000 workers — its largest layoff ever. In 2025, Netflix had a net income of $11 billion (up 26%). Its CEO was paid $53M (255x more than the median employee). And it just raised prices for the second time in just over a year. Corporate greed in a nutshell.

Hard not to notice that Democrats who are doing the best are the ones who are leaving this whole civility-and-norms, we-go-high, we-need-a-strong-Republican-Party bullshit behind and are simply giving Republicans exactly what they all ought to get at all times, which is undisguised contempt.

Peaceful protest isn’t a threat; it’s a democratic right. Suppressing voices doesn't fix problems; it deepens them. A healthy democracy listens to dissent; it doesn't silence it.
