Name’s Petey and I live in the sea. For my own sanity I mostly post things that make me laugh, but I’m interested in politics, technology, climate, and the democratic (both small d and capital D) rule of law.

I said it at the time (and before!), but I truly believe that American voters electing Donald Trump for a second term in 2024 was the dumbest and most self-harming choice made by an electorate in the history of humanity

This is the best take I’ve seen. An arguably worse human being, Laura Loomer, turned him in. I’d allow him back to the US, but if only he’d get the “First they came” poem tattooed on his forehead.

Only in America can a woman be arrested and tried for a miscarriage, but killing your kids by refusing to vaccinate them is just fine. 🙄

This is such an easy thing to do. Laws shouldn’t be tied to a specific dollar amount, but have some ability to change with inflation or cost of living. Minimum wage is the same idea.

I bought a one year lease return with 10K miles for under $30K last year. Used EVs are a screaming deal, and you’ll be glad you bought one as gas prices go up.

I love this sentiment and want to agree with it more, but wonder how history will regard this time of daily scandals that would’ve ended a presidency in the past.

If you really want to increase the minimum wage then index congressional pay to it. You guys get 4x or 5x the minimum wage, so what would you like to set it at?

It's a sign of how shockingly corrupt this country has become that a nominee for Attorney General is given a hearing by the Senate *the very same week* he has been referred by a judge for possible disbarment for unethical behavior. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

🇧🇪 PM Bart De Wever: Regarding NATO’s support for Ukraine, I thought we were back in a good vibe there. We're going to allocate twice 70 billion to Ukraine, military support. So that is very strong red card to Putin as well. And you can’t just withdraw a red card, you know that.

The US women's team has 4 world cup titles and 5 Olympic gold medals. They're a heavy favorite for the women's world cup next year. The Men's team has 0 in both. The women get the job done.

Wanted to get the vibe of going to Trump’s state fair but didn’t want to drive all the way to DC, so I just went and stood in an empty field.

This guy is lamenting that Porsche’s fake vroom vroom and shifting on the Taycan EV needs to be rougher. Why are we doing this? Reminds me of early cars that had fake horse heads on the front. www.motor1.com/features/799...

When Trump lashes out publicly, it’s often at women of color, as he does here. This is likely because their existence in a role other than servant actually triggers him AND because his public abusive outbursts are partly performative. MAGA likes it when he abuses women, especially women of color.
