by choosing anyone other than harris to replace biden should he decide to step aside, the party would be revealing they very cynically chose her as veep for optics without believing she could actually be president.

Neo Yokio was one of the best tv shows of the last decade and it is a tragedy there are only six episodes and a holiday special.

Watched the fourth episode of Discovery. Those episodes are so dense! I feel like I just watched a movie. I couldnโ€™t imagine watching a second episode tonight even though I read the description of 5 and see Rainn Wilson is going to play Harry Mudd?? But I need to let some things sit.

I like the coconut tree memes as much as everyone else but I do think we should all be on the same page about Harris's quote actually making sense when you realize she was telling a story about her mom and illustrating a point about education. www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-roo...

Just watched the third episode of Discovery. It is not what I expected and if I were not a toddler parent, I probably would insist we stay up all night and inhale this whole season.

Johnny McEntee, one of Trump's most loyal deputies who is in regular contact with him, is literally one of the people collecting resumes for staffers who would implement Project 2025. Shame on any journalistic outfit who takes this "truth" at face value.
Today in "Trump didn't write this, someone on his campaign staff did." I don't know if Kellyanne Conway is working for Trump these days but this feels more like her style, voice, and syntax than Trump or those posting on his behalf recently.

tbh its super notable that with all the news tumbling like an avalanche coming down a mountain at Biden, Trump's campaign felt compelled to post this
even trumpโ€™s campaign staff (i assume he didnโ€™t write this) knows that the reactionary, authoritarian agenda thatโ€™s project 2025 is going to be unpopular with the average voter.

Due to the fireworks, New York City's air quality is the worst in the world tonight. When AQI is low, it's a good idea to wear a mask to protect your health. But this could soon be a crime, as one of the mask ban bills prohibits masks at "lawful assemblies." #NoNYMaskBan

Here's some new ones too: "Cannot use fireworks on or near state forest land, wildlands. Cannot shoot fireworks from a motor vehicle or throw into a vehicle. Cannot be discharged within 150 feet of a fireworks retail sales location"

Firework warning labels are something to behold. Do not light indoors or in a confined space. Do not light while holding. Do not aim at another person. Do not aim at any structures. Etc. Every warning is a story but unfortunately the people who need to hear them aren't reading warning labels

I donโ€™t know how to explain to our nationโ€™s top editorial boards that the Democratic Party is an actual organization with a lot of rules and history to it, not just a store that distributes team jerseys, and it has already selected delegates to its nominating convention.
Cannot emphasize enough how pathetic these editorial boards are revealing themselves to be.

If you wake the neighborhood kids up at midnight with your loud fireworks, you should have to provide vouchers for a free babysitter tomorrow or at the very least, give all the parents a box of joe on their doorstep in the morning

Watching the first two episodes of Discovery for the first time and was not at all prepared for the Klingons in this time. Gowron would never

The good news: the Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular is streamed nationwide! The bad news: itโ€™s on Bloomberg and they have the tickers running so I am inundated with information about the value of various crops America!

Fucking unbelievable that the big publications are running with this as the lead story after the Supreme Court just promised to install a convicted felon rapist insurrectionist as Emperor for Life.
IMO this is a straight-up ageist and ableist image, no?
