Proud to be woke because I care about social justice. Paying taxes is a high class problem. Vote because you care about others and recognize that other people can do well and make society better

The review captures my feelings about the film precisely. I appreciate your posting it, and pointing out a good example of someone who didn’t get it at all

The hilarious and pathetic part of Trump whining about the Nobel Peace Prize is that part of him actually kind of thought he might get it.

The deal is 300,000 tons a month growing to 1 million tons. That is less than a day of diesel consumption growing to two days of consumption A LITERAL “drop in the bucket” We compromised our national honor (again) for no meaningful gain

It’s early, but @gregsargent.bsky.social points out that early voting turnout among Latino voters is ahead of 2024 in ACTUAL VOTES This is really encouraging in competitive districts. Short article, must read 👇 newrepublic.com/article/2164... via @newrepublic.com

If Dems Win, Incribe This Chart on Trump-MAGA’s Political Gravestone
A new analysis by a Democratic data firm shows that Latino turnout in early voting is outpacing 2024—a presidential year. That could be a big problem for Trump and the GOP.

Largely overlooked by the media is that Hasan is a paraplegic (shot during his rampage) and is in a wheelchair The optics for this spectacle execution are horrendous

Local man has no idea what socialism is. Also, remember when we had to live through interminable debates about gay wedding cakes? And now no one blinks an eye. In 15 years, this gendered sports bullshit is going to be remembered in exactly the same way. Dumbasses trying to scare other dumbasses.

Thanks to effusive recommendations from @mattgertz.bsky.social @adamsessler.bsky.social and @kenjennings.bsky.social, I saw Digger today One of the best films I’ve seen, definitely the best performance by Cruise. Great performances by Ahmed and Plemons Thoughtful and interesting throughout
