“In the name of unity, stop taking issue with Jan. 6” is “when you say it’s wrong that I hit you, you’re tearing this family apart” on a national scale.

me seconds before being killed by a Trump supporter: “Uh, it’s HANGED, dipshit.”

MAGA boards are lighting up with declarations of civil war, with a NY-based Proud Boys channel calling for feds, Democrats and reporters to be “hung in the streets.”

Progressive values and Democrats are not responsible for this violence. There is no both sides here. Violent rhetoric is the bread and butter of modern extreme conservatism. And lax gun laws put a semiautomatic rifle in the hands of a gunman.

Shout out to my spooky bean Raven who willingly came out of hiding when my friend was visiting, SOUGHT HER OUT, and got scritches from said friend, which is something she has never been brave enough to let someone besides me do since I adopted her 😭 🐈‍⬛ 💕 we love a growth arc

Now that people are starting to be aware of the right wing horrors in Project 2025, Facebook, Instagram and Threads have started tagging posts about it as “partly false information,” citing right wing propaganda site The Dispatch as a “fact checker.”

Tired: Biden must drop out because he's lagging in the polls Wired: Biden is only lagging in the polls because of the drumbeat of calls for him to drop out Inspired: Biden is gaining in the polls because this is the first time all year the press has given any coverage to anything Dems say

Without even clicking the link, I’ll guess the reason — all the talk of racism makes white kids feel guilty. Again, if your kids are reading histories of slavery or segregation and identifying with the racists in the story, that suggests you’ve got your own problems to work through. Leave us out.

beginning to think the post-Reagan bipartisan commitment to corporate self-regulation wasn't a great idea

There was lead in EVERY tampon they tested. There was less lead in organic tampons, but those had higher concentrations of arsenic. Also fun: It's 2024. This is the first ever study testing metals in tampons. Great. 🙃 www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/tox... Study: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

In my latest “Loxy recreates a retro Canadian thing” - I’ve created a vector file of the Red Cross swimming badges. And I’m going to make them as laser cut wood pieces. How big were those badges? I’m thinking like 1.5” square? I’m planning to make them as earrings, pins and magnets.
