How the fuck are any of us functional. We’re 1% of the population, give or take, and we have Great Depression employment numbers

But Democrats in Republican-leaning districts are under pressure to respond. One Democratic strategist estimated that fully half of the GOP’s messaging this year has been around transgender issues — about the same time they’ve given the economy, data centers, immigration and crime put together.

Remember when they kicked an entire girl’s softball team out of the championship game because a player posted a private Snapchat where she was flipping off the camera? It’s funny how they never worry about ruining girl’s futures.

Seems in line with the Texas "culture": Post a meme of your coach slugging a woman one week (and laugh at how hilarious that is) Piss on an opponent when he's down this week Wonder what "highjinks" they'll get up to next week (maybe nothing, since it's a bye, on the other hand...)

I don't have time to write more, but ICE is working to remove people to third countries in violation of D.V.D. v. DHS. I've been up since 5:20 A.M. working with two other attorneys to prevent our client from being shipped out. If you rep someone at risk of third country removal, check on them NOW

The answer I'd *like* to hear from a Dem candidate when asked about sports and trans folks: "You know, there are the same number of dragons dying of fentanyl overdose as there are trans women trying to play professional sports. Can you ask a real question?"

You can trace the decline of American society through DraftKings/FanDuel ads. In 2015 when they first infected sports, fans were so mad they stopped. In 2026 every league & network gets a cut, so fans are still mad but we're forced to suffer. The customer is always wrong, now.

I want the name of every consultant who convinces a Democrat to run an ad ceding ground to trans hatred, and I want them blacklisted by the party and noted so I can never give a cent to anyone who hires them ever again.

This is straight out of Handmaids Tale. A high school trying to force girls to disclose the dates and lengths of their menstrual cycle. Don’t comply? You lose a grade. There’s absolutely no reason a school needs this information other than to exert control over our bodies.

You can't blame Ed Sheeran for caving in to American stadium owners I suppose. I mean, take these guys in the 60s, they refused to play to racially-segregated audiences in stadiums in the southern states of the USA and who remembers them now?

The weathervane (which I am considering as a Christmas gift for my husband) is... 14 inches high. What is the point of this picture, depicting a vane that would require me to reinforce my roof supports?

A metal weather vane of a salmon, with a mountain scape covering its body. It has been photo shopped onto a house, and appears to be about 5 feet tall, rather than its actual 14 inches.

Nothing in this @cnn.com piece about Elon Musk's extremist views and the questions and complications they will surely bring for Ken Paxton who must, of course, now be asked to disavow the support of a racist who advocates the Great Replacement Theory and other white nationalist ideas. Not a word.

For months, Texas Republicans have anxiously awaited the arrival of national resources to help boost Ken Paxton, one of the GOP’s most vulnerable Senate candidates.

This. I mean, they're literally called human RESOURCES, so why do companies not value their "resource" instead of assuming that people are expendable and interchangeable. If you invest in the maintenance & well-being of your resources, they last longer. Aside from just being the decent thing to do.
