I’m looking for every Dem on that stage to take it to the Republicans, no soft-pedaling, no playing nice.
What are you looking for tonight?
Tonight, Wednesday, April 22, 7 PM PT on KTLA. Link to watch in 🧵
"The Opinion culture editor Nadja Spiegelman is calling this microlooting...."
I'm gonna lose it, man
Also this v smrt "I work for a law office" lady called back and said she had recorded the first conversation - which is illegal in California *and* her state, as we both have all-party consent laws about phone recording.

Characters like Dr. Ellie Sattler studying ecosystems in Jurassic Park have helped bring the world of science to life on screen, and inspire interest in pursuing similar careers. This Earth Day, let’s celebrate stories that inspire the next generation of scientists, engineers and changemakers. 🌱
EISEN: I wonder if you ever worry that by trashing the president over Iran that it weakens our hand and negotiation position at a critical moment
ELIZABETH WARREN: 🤨 Donald Trump weakens Donald Trump's hand when he starts this war without ever consulting with the American people about it
Seems like NYT should have mentioned that UAE's spymaster bought 49% of Trump's World Liberty Financial and used $2B of its USD1 stablecoin, directing hundreds of millions to Trump.

It's Earth Day!
So what better way to mark the day than with one of the photos of our homeworld taken by the Artemis II crew a few weeks ago.
Hard to see national boundaries, sectarian divides, or differences in skin colour from this distance.
You ever try to code switch at work and fail? 😂
I would submit that a gerrymander by politicians saying fuck the voters and one by voters saying fuck the politicians are two wholly different animals
When I worked on legislation that would make platforms pay journalists for scraping journalism it got called a “link tax,” but when platforms make journalists pay the platform to post links it’s just good ol capitalism.
The hilarious audacity to leave a voicemail with HR trying to get our (excellent) employee fired and STEAL HER JOB thinking because you "work for lawyers" - living across the US and sounding like a fucking lunatic.
And by CA Law, managers have to protect our employees from customer harassment!
Do not try to pull shit on the office staff after you verbally abuse one of us on the phone, we will have your criminal harassment record googled and passed around before you can get your next shoplifting charge.
I know some attorneys who worked at HHS in the Before Time and they were quite fond of Becerra!
OPEN THE STRAIT. CLOSE THE STRAIT. WE ARE BLOCKADING. LIFT SANCTIONS. IMPOSE NEW SANCTIONS. JD IS IN PAKISTAN. JD IS NOT IN PAKISTAN. STILL BLOCKADING. WE HAVE AN AGREEMENT. THERE IS NO AGREEMENT THAT IS FAKE NEWS. BOMBING AGAIN SOON (MAYBE)!

"Your job is so fun," yes, but did you know I have to single handedly fight no fewer than sixth algorithms every day for the privilege of telling people to not set their beds on fire.
This article is excellent! Please read it. It contains so much local context and history that I don't think outsiders (and even many who live here) understand. A really good piece of journalism, imo.
Thinking of how the woke Continental Army would forcevax you with smallpox scabs back in the day.
Doing this video with a painting of Washington in the background is a level of irony that even he’d probably cross the Delaware again just to get away from
everyone with real American manliness and a basic knowledge of military history knows that serious war efforts have never been derailed by such trifling matters as "communicable diseases"
