I’m a sociologist so I should understand this behavior, but I DON’T! I really thought this level of bootlicking was so 1950s… Maybe structural functionalism will also come back into vogue!

BREAKING: A reporter asked Mike Johnson at a press conference today, “Should we bother asking you any questions about Max Miller, Trump’s latest Iran deal, or his Capital One scandal, or have you not heard about any of them yet?"

Safety experts say the glass in some Pillsbury bread rolls is dangerous. A guy who snorts cocaine off toilet seats and brings raccoon penises home for "further study" says it will strengthen your immune system and stop you from getting autism. For busy shoppers, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.

We cannot accept the reckless use of deadly force by federal agents as normal. There is a pattern of this administration misleading the public and withholding key facts after these killings.

I spoke to Mitch McConnell for twenty minutes this morning. He said, in a weak but firm voice, "Access to health care shouldn't belong just to Senators. It is a basic human right."

Kyiv is under attack. Explosions shake the night. Air defense. In the afternoon, I admired the work of Ukrainian artisans. At night, I listen to explosions.

I recall watching The Apprentice back in the day, in a mocking sort of way, bc Trump was absurd to me then, even. Well, looks like he never moved on (and thinks Americans are a joke. Some are in a cult, it’s true, but most of us love democracy and the constitution).

The assault on higher ed goes deeper than you think
The regime is quietly working to create a permanent underclass.

I guess it’s why I’m broke more often than not, but I can’t believe the current administration and tech oligarchs would sell the soul of our nation to further fill their already bloated pockets. The gutting of the VRA sits so heavy on my heart today. US democracy is dying in plain sight.
