Sinn Féin held its seven seats and whittled the majority of the East Derry seat held by the DUP’s Gregory Campbell. The republican party leader Michelle O’Neill called it a “tremendous result right across the board”.

Thank you, Idaho DEMs!

Short king no more.

There is a 7 foot tall guy behind Rishi Sunak who likely ran for office just to be able to hold a printed out L behind him during his concession speech.

Happy 4th I would sooner vote for any desiccated organ in a jar over a fascist. Doesn't even have to be human. I would vote for a cat.

Softboy Hitler.

This is the tradcath weirdo whom the @nytimes.com is publishing to tell you not to vote. You should not listen to him. Instead, you should shove his ass into a locker and burn the entire campus containing said locker to the ground. (The campus is Hillsdale)

Fucking @nytimes.com changed the headline and thought no one would notice. The TL;DR: Times runs a stupid "don't vote" piece from an idiotic right wing pundit. Turns out: surprise! The dude voted in both 2022 and 2020, and has written elsewhere about voting in earlier elections.

Flashbacks to the first date I went on when I was living with the Bay Area where he sent me a lengthy feedback survey via google forms after. It wasn't even personalized because there were questions related to his sexual performance and, reader, we did not.

when I was a child, I thought smart people were in charge. when I got older, I realized you didn't have to be smart to be in charge. but the piece that was hardest to learn is that no one is really in charge at all. no one's going to fix it beyond us.

The July 4, 1942 edition of the "Pinedale Logger," the newspaper written by inmates of the concentration camp in my hometown of Fresno, CA, describes a "Gala Fourth Festival" & features a masthead motto from Thomas Paine: "Tyranny, Like Hell, Is Not Easily Conquered."

the vibes are horrendous and i think it's because we're heading into a july 4th when approximately no one at all is excited about this country

The Vibes today are Very Bad and if you're out there mansplaining fascism and its ills right now after ignoring our warnings for years, I hope you have an even worse week than my own

Been thinking a lot about the countries that imprison people over social media posts the government doesn't like.

I've lived in an authoritarian country (Saudi) and the lesson I take from it is that most of us will be fine--many of us will even prosper. But folks on the margins are in for a level of cruelty that's incomprehensible right now. At least now we know what our generation's great struggle will be.
