Psst: Project 2025 is terrifying for a lot of reasons but also because on page 5 it calls for teachers and librarians who grant access to books that are maligned as pornography (which just means anything LGBTQ) to be registered as sex offenders. Pass it on.

no cheating! post the last photo of a dog from your gallery. We are currently vacationing in Alaska and this is a sled dog who just wants to chill, being harassed by another sled dog who wants to PLAY.

All the calls for “everyone” to “cool down the rhetoric” etc feel like how families so often put the burden of keeping the peace on the family members who are already working hardest at that, since the difficult/abusive folks are unfixable/cannot be reasoned with.

I mean, yes, all political violence is bad. And I’m sorry that someone at the rally died. But the kids in this country are at risk of being in a school shooting, every single day, and nobody in the GOP cares. So, please excuse my lack of sympathy for them.

I'm 1 ep into My Lady Jane and it is so extremely my shit. LOL A Tudor-adjacent show hasn't gone so hard since Reign, but this one's just like "a witch detective agency is boring, what if instead of protestants/catholics we had SHAPESHIFTERS. now Jane is married to a horse-man your move" flawless

One of the conclusions I am coming to is that we are too precious about the federal judiciary. You don’t get to be a coequal branch of government, if you don’t have an enforceable ethics code.

Okay, all 3,000 of you go buy a trans book.

On that note: Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day. Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links. Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo

The news from France just keeps a girl feeling good.

WTF. The electric company in Texas doesn't have a map of outages so people have been using the Whataburger App to figure out who lost power. This is like when Homer was using the Krusty Burger map when they got lost at sea.

FUCKING FINALLY

It's not every day that senators ask the attorney general to appoint a special counsel to criminally investigate a sitting Supreme Court justice. What's more, the case against Clarence Thomas is quite credible. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

I love the smell of consequences in the morning.

Two Democratic U.S. senators announced Tuesday that they are seeking a criminal investigation of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas over gifts of travel, a loan for a recreational vehicle and other benefits he received from wealthy benefactors.

Democratic lawmakers seek criminal investigation of Justice Thomaswapo.st Sens. Sheldon Whitehouse and Ron Wyden want a special counsel to investigate Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas for possible tax and ethics violations.
