Heroes do exist in the real world, not just in a game. Much gratitude to Tim Sweeney. (Tho I wouldn’t let my kids play Fortnite at home, too violent. I’m sure that they played it elsewhere tho.)

Maybe the new definition of witch-hunt should be when strong women hunt rapists and their enablers.

So, vote Republican if you like increased inflation, more corruption, more war, less healthcare, the destruction of our national parks and farms going out of business? Good to know the plan.

So, according to this pitchout pointing something out or reporting evil is just as bad as doing evil? Maybe if it's just reporting on Israel's behavior toward Palestinians that is the issue to the "NY Times Pitchbot". I wonder why that could be?

Mamdani is my Mayor as well. Definitely better than the current one in San Diego.

Missing from the headline: The National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration announced an investigation into Comma last week after two car crashes involving the system killed three people.

Loving Ms. Rachel and Zohran Mamdani tells me you value decency, you actually care, and you’re a good person. We can be best friends, too.

Btw, Trump is not Achilles. He’s just a corporate funded Heel. Anywhere you hit Trump, it’s all bullshit or literal shit.

The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY_8...

If he wants his name everywhere, it should go on portapotties and dumps everywhere. Trump's Dump has a nice ring to it that people will remember. You don't need a diaper - use Trump's Shitter on every portapotta.

I’d highly recommend that nobody download this app. At best, it’s unfiltered propaganda. At worst, it’s spyware.

I subscribe to KPBS/NPR for actual reporting. This morning I heard Steve Inskeep on Morning Edition let Mike Waltz spew a bunch of Trump propaganda without questioning any of it. He totally let Waltz control the interview without any real questioning. So disappointed.

Trump told his supporters at gop convention to “cheat like hell.” They know if they commit federal crimes he will pardon them. That is why we need Democratic AGs to hold a joint press conference to make it clear they will swiftly prosecute anyone who does under state law so Trump can’t pardon them

In the 25 years since 9/11, the United States has spent $8 trillion+ on wars that have taken millions of lives in the name of fighting "terror." Can you imagine if we had instead invested those funds here on climate, health care, housing, and education?

There's a great opportunity to kneecap the GOP here, maybe do generational damage to them. We can do that or you can sit there and whine about Democrats not being the magical unicorn political party that you seem to think exists. It's up to you.

As an old lady Apple user, I'm very upset about this. Not sure that I can learn to use a whole new system. I need to replace my MacBook, but Apple's support of an incredibly stupid fascist leader has me in a dilemma. I did take apple maps off my phone, but not impressed iwth Mapquest.
