Trump campaigns for Ken Paxton in Texas: "He can be a pain in the ass sometimes, I'll be honest. Is he here, by the way? Oh, there he is. I didn't even know if he was here! I don't care."

Was hiking on a trail today & ran into maybe 30 middle schoolers from Smarty Pants Middle School going the other way & 1 of them was saying he "decimated Arceus" & if you guessed that another Smarty Pants Middle Schooler immediately corrected him on the definition of "decimate" you'd be so right.

We can extrapolate based on the amount of people on death row who have been exonerated and released that at least 3-5% of them are innocent. Having it in place simply as a method of revenge for families is not worth even one of their lives. Not even close.

The exact number will likely never be known But multiple studies have converged around a similar figure: around 700,000 people died as a result of Musk “putting USAID through the wood chipper” (his words), of whom 500,000 were kids Picture 500,000 tiny coffins in a row: that’s MAGA/MAHA’s impact😢

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

There‘s much to appreciate in Mamdani, but his insistence that culture isn’t a privilege of the rich is one of his strengths.It is reminiscent of how unions and the government treated it in the 1930s -art for the masses - paintings, music, opera, theater - democracy for all.
