Beating fascists is worth it if only for making these chuds cry

Dem weirdos dreaming up tournament-style solutions to Joe Biden being the nominee and Catturd-grade reactionary types crying about cheating in the French election have one crucial thing in common, which is that they transparently lack the emotional maturity and patience required to be sports fans.

Look how fun shutting down fascists is. I want this for us, too

It is good to work together with people who we'd otherwise disagree with to stop fash

Here's a lesson for all of these "why should I have to choose the lesser of two evils" Democrats out there.

The left just showed that they can defeat the far right in France when they work together. Jeremy Corbyn won as an independent with grassroots campaigning. Both won with a message of Free Palestine

Solve your housing affordability crisis with this one weird trick

Ok watched the race late, and oh boy am I glad I avoided spoilers, that was just an incredible drive and an extremely well deserved win for Hamilton! #f1

This is the core of it. This is why the right must be denied power

Being a good citizen, being a good neighbor, being a helpful and attentive student, being a good community member, even what was once considered being a good Christian - all of these things are antithetical to the right wing movement

Oh shit is that why I still haven't caught it?

an entire movement of wicked people who celebrate wickedness

As a side note, this is John McEntee, Trump's Director of White House Personnel and the primary architect of Project 2025. On Tik Tok he said he gives counterfeit bills to homeless people so they will be arrested when they go to spend them.

I also watched Joan Blondell & Melvyn Douglas imitate Nick & Nora Charles in a mystery. #Letterboxd

I would vote for Berno Sanden

Thinking about the time I edited Bernie's face onto Biden's body and created the slick supercandidate

Another huge economic win showing that federal investment is the best way to create growth and progress. If Democrats manage to win in November, we need to go even harder, and really cement this growth for workers across the country

Companies decided to sink billions of dollars of new investment into manufacturing plants in the U.S. after the CHIPS and Inflation Reduction Act boosted incentives for U.S. production, Check out that spike in manufacturing plant construction. It dwarfs all prior increases. 📉📈 #️⃣#️⃣

Joe Biden must carry the One Ring to its ultimate destruction

Breaking news: President Biden and his senior team said they accepted the grim ultimatum they’ve been hearing from almost all quarters of the Democratic Party — to demonstrate his fitness for office or face a significant effort to force him to step aside.

Biden and aides concede he needs to quickly demonstrate his fitness for officewww.washingtonpost.com Critics have been shaken by his relative inaction to directly address the panic ignited by his halting debate performance last Thursday.

As we know, Biden could do this via executive order and they can't say shit now, but Biden won't do anything. He respects the court.

The Biden administration cannot enforce new anti-discrimination rules in health care for transgender Americans, a Mississippi federal judge ruled, citing a recent landmark Supreme Court ruling that weakened the power of federal agencies.

this case against biden's resignation makes sense. i do think that if biden decides to step away from reelection, he should explicitly say that he is doing this because House Republicans are too corrupt to confirm a replacement for Harris.

1/ I'm agnostic as to whether Biden should withdraw from the race. It's a genuinely tough question IMO. But I have clarity on one thing: He should absolutely not step down as president. If Harris becomes President, the Vice Presidency is empty. Under the 25th Amendment ...

Everybody freaking out about extrajudicial killings is going to lose it when they find out about the existence of cops.

She tried so hard, and got so far, but I'm the end it doesn't even matter

kamala harris loves to show up in public and say shit like: "Time is a valuable thing, watch it fly by as a pendulum swings. Watch it count down to the end of the day, the clock ticks life away. It's so unreal..."

Public buildings can and should be works of art. Private construction will never be anything but a tool to make money, but public buildings are ours, and they should be beautiful.

My reaction the first time I tutored at the Brooklyn Central Library: “this is *just* a library??”

AOC is right here, even if it doesn't stand a chance of passing, because Republicans will protect their own, we need to show that the Democratic party will have no part in acting like this court is legitimate

You could also call up your US rep and demand they join AOC in this move for impeachment. Can't pass the R House, but they HAVE to use their bully pulpit and rally the public. www.nydailynews.com/2024/07/01/a...

Not the most terrifying thing but perhaps the most infuriating: every single thing we said about these fascist Republican fucks has been proved out and all the people who assured us that what is happening would never happen smoothly pivoted to yes it's happening but it will be fine.

The "require alt text" option is a great reminder, everyone should have it on

For Disability Pride Month I’m once again begging for more artists to start considering accessibility and add alt text to your images. It helps low/no vision folks, neurodivergent folks, and more. Plus alt text shows up in searches! There’s a toggle in settings so you won’t forget. 👇

a lot of people seem to think my annoyance here is with jokes about political violence, which i’m on record saying are fine and cathartic. my annoyance is with people who disengage with effective forms of politics and replace them with fantasies

the worst dudes online are the guys who are like “the time for electoral politics is over, it’s time for guillotines.” yeah bud i’m sure you’ll stop posting and get the ball rolling on the guillotines any minute now.

This is a work of art

Why yes, I AM the kind of nerd who spent an hour and a half compiling pictures of Pirelli's slicks by F1 season rather than doing real work.

A total ban is the only sane policy for Airbnb. There obviously needs to be accommodation in cities for visitors, but that shouldn’t be at the expense of housing units for people who actually live there. More governments should follow Barcelona’s lead.

Barcelona Plans to Ban All Short-Term Rentals for Tourists From 2029www.bloomberg.com Barcelona plans to enact a citywide ban on all short-term rentals to address complaints that tourism is to blame for a local housing crisis and soaring rents.

I've never been more annoyed at seeing the Bangor Daily News come up. I used to deliver that paper, and I'd probably just throw every copy with this op ed into the river

Donald Trump is going to win the election and democracy will be just finewww.bangordailynews.com “Democrats’ post-debate hand-wringing is based on the idea that a Trump victory is not just a political loss, but a unique threat to our democracy. I reject the premise.”

If Biden's not going to be the nominee, Harris clearly should be. I genuinely think she stands a better chance

CNN's new poll: Trump leads Biden 49/43. Trump leads Harris 47/45. Some differences: —Independents: Biden -10%. Harris +3%. —People of color: Biden +21. Harris +29. The side-by-side:
