Honest question: who is in charge of making sure abortion access is on the ballot in every single state? Who is running point on this?

Organizers got enough signatures to put a measure protecting abortion on the ballot in Arkansas. In *Arkansas*. They had *no national support*. Ignore the pundits melting down over not being treated as Very Special Boys. Dobbs has fundamentally changed elections. Everything they know is wrong.

Arkansas abortion rights groups collect enough signatures to advance ballot measurewww.nbcnews.com A measure to enshrine abortion rights in the ruby red state’s constitution is now one step closer to making the November ballot — but major obstacles remain.

The group is called "Arkansans for Limited Government," which is brilliant. I've been suggesting the Ds retool as the "Mind Your Own Fucking Business" party, but these folks in AR obviously know their communities and are nailing it.

If for any reason Joe Biden can't complete a 2nd term, we know who will take over. Her name is Kamala Harris and America already voted for her once. If Donald Trump can't complete a 2nd term, we have no idea who will take over because he TRIED TO HAVE HIS LAST VP MURDERED.

watching the first BEVERLY HILLS COP and it is always shocking to remember that eddie murphy was 22 when he filmed this. the guy acts on screen like he’s never not been a movie star. it’s extraordinary.

My theory is that ents are actually monoecious and the disappearance of the entwives is actually an ad hoc rationale for a psychic trauma that caused them to repress the knowledge that they were sexually complete in themselves.

Stephen Miller now following Trump's lead and saying he has nothing to do with Project 2025. 1. His organization is on the Project 2025 advisory board. 2. He recorded a video as part of Project 2025 training tools 3. You can see Mandate for Leadership, the Project 2025 publication in the background

The best reason to believe the threat of Project 2025 is because there’s no way Trump would ever write his version of Mein Kampf on his own but he’d definitely plagiarize another guy’s.

Went to the AMNH to hide from the heat and got to teach the kid about what it means to be a vertebrate. Also fun: showing her the hallway next to the fountains and the then-in-construction Gilder Center where she used to play as a two-year-old during the sparsely attended days of the pandemic.

going to skip the obvious dunk here (real TB heads know what a sacrifice that is for me) and observe that white media pointedly ignores black media, especially if something's popular there that they don't approve of

Wait, why am I just now learning about this?

Went to a guy’s wake in my neigbourhood recently after he* died at 104, and on his wall was a framed certificate that said: LATE ARRIVALS CLUB Turned out only WWII pilots shot down behind enemy lines who managed to escape got a certificate. It was a very, very small club. (*RIP Trevor Anderson)

the courts knocked down his first attempt at student loan relief and he tried again, and again, and again, long after the news cycle had lost interest. he capped insulin prices and said "trans rights" with his full chest. I want to keep moving in this direction.

Just going to put this out there: Biden has been the most legislatively effective president since LBJ. The most pro-labor president WW2. He's done more re climate change than any POTUS. He's built an international coalition for Ukraine despite Russia-fueld GOP opposition. And yeah: he's hella old.

"I think your clothes don't follow my in-group's fashion trends closely enough." I think you're a mark and easily swayed by peer pressure. What now?

Some Millennials in my timeline are insecure because Gen Zs are telling them their ankle socks age them. I can't stress enough that you don't need to care about what a bunch of 20-somethings think about your clothes, mainly bc you don't have to care about what ANYONE thinks about your clothes.
