Every time the Apple News app pings my phone with a headline, I always mutter “please be the one that tells me he died.” Anyone else do that?

A good way to think about the relevance of James Carville is if someone who worked on Grover Cleveland’s successful 1892 campaign spent all their time critiquing FDR’s 1932 campaign as not being the real Democratic Party that Cleveland represented.

He called Trump America's Hitler and then spent six years proving he meant it as a compliment. Whatever comes next, he earned.

With the likely millions of New Yorkers swarming the streets of the city right now, I think they need a celebratory tarp for the occasion. I wonder where they might find one to march down the road with?

I often say that the fight for democracy is the fight of our generation. But let me be clear, if you aren’t fighting for Black voting rights right now then you aren’t really fighting for democracy.

Anthropic vs. DoD* - A Guide For The Perplexed 🧵 1) Some time in the past, Anthropic's Claude AI was installed for use in secret DoD systems. That's not unusual - the DoD is a huge contractor. * I will not cooperate in the Trump admin's attempt outside the law at renaming this department.

Nixon was totally evil, but he wasn't completely stupid. GW Bush was completely stupid, but he wasn't totally evil. By GOP logic, this makes Trump the most competent president they've ever had.

Putting my prediction out there now: when Trump is gone, it will come out that he failed his cognitive test. Oh, they’ll pull out the test sheet and show it sufficiently correct. But some eyewitness who can’t speak now will confess that someone in his inner circle gave him the answers.

Captain Torture
A four frame comic about Captain Torture. The first frame shows the sign "BREAKING NEWS" and the drawing of a man, with the words "CAPTAIN TORTURES PASSES AWAY" near him. The second frame shows a journalist holding a mic, as she says "A controversial and divisive figure, Captain torture will be remembered for his key role in history." The News title is "Mourning day for Captain-". The third frame shows three posts on social media. The first one is by a man called Paul James @Paulitician. He writes: "I didn't always agree with Captain Torture but he sure was a man who believed in something." The second post by James Paul @Avegetable reads: "I pay my respects to Captain Torture and his family. His heart was in the right place- with our country." The third post is by SonicVomit @SonicBleh , and reads "HE TORTURED PEOPLE". The fourth frame shows an interview on TV. An angry man on the right is saying: "Let me tell you something, Jen. I think it's SICK to celebrate Captain Torture's death. These people should be LOCKED UP, and also tortured-". The news below says: "Every president on earth pays homage-".

This might actually be THE point where Christian Nationalism starts either splintering...or the NAR literally just joins with Christian Identity and REALLY returns to its roots (I'd have thought the SBC/NAR widening split would have been the fissure, but a neo-Nazi/NAR split has been growing) 1/x

I've seen so many people online using the government shutdown as an opportunity to demonize people who receive SNAP benefits, WIC and any kind of government assistance. Here's the thing: I agree with those people. We need to end the WHITE welfare state BECAUSE welfare works. A thread:

Having ADHD hyperfocus on the thing you actually want it to is great and all, right up until you have trouble sleeping because you're visualizing what you need to do and can't shut your brain off. Then you have to wait for exhaustion to override it, spending the next few days tired and lose focus.

The last time an army of guys wearing red enforced the law on our soil, they first shot a black man and then we spent the next several years forcing them out of our country at gunpoint. History does not repeat but it does occasionally rhyme.

if you wind back the clock a year and say “trump will be president, he’ll tear up entire agencies without any legislative authority, ignore court orders, build a concentration camp, and send troops into multiple US cities” you wouldn’t ask “well how many troops?” before deciding what this describes

For years people said it was a gross exaggeration to label Nazism and its associated viewpoints within the modern conservative movement and especially online. Now Nazis are openly thriving and their rhetoric is impossible to avoid and many of the people who downplayed it are saying nothing at all

Sampling records as a musician to make a new song? Not OK, you have to get permission and pay the artist. Sampling artists' work to program an AI to derive new works for profit without asking permission and paying for the rights? A-OK!

So one of my neighbors I'd never met before started talking to me as I was out raking leaves in the front yard. He steered the conversation to the election, and mentioned he'd voted Trump. You may wonder if I took him to task. The answer is actually no, and I'll explain why.
