This bill is a staggering combination of cruelty and stupidity. More commodity subsidies + slashed SNAP benefits = paying farmers to overproduce food people can no longer afford to buy. The inevitable increase in food waste from this imbalance is just an evil gift with purchase I guess.

Headline that says mushrooms may talk to one another with up to 50 words
so they're mycoblogging
Next steps (both to return the kidnapped men to the US AND to enforce some actual goddamn consequences on President 34 Felonies) are murky but criminal contempt is a good start.
This is such an extremely niche pun and I love it, sometimes it's good to know the internet can still function as intended.
Good news about the stock market I guess, I like having money too, now, was anyone planning to stop the ICE kidnappings, the rampant digital book burning, and the stripping trans people of their documentation and travel rights? Or is it really only the economy that gets people mad?
I, for one, welcome our new penguin overlords.

When I saw this headline yesterday, I was really hoping it would turn out to be an April Fool's joke in very poor taste. (NOPE THEY ARE REALLY THAT STUPID) wapo.st/42dVyTk
but they were all of them deceived, for *another* person was invited to the group chat
This is the news we deserve.

We absolutely should NOT do this. These fucking idiots.
tl;dr: the Trump White House is very bad at math and diplomacy, and your grocery bill is going to suffer for it.
Running 👏 away 👏 from 👏 the 👏 left 👏 just 👏 pushes 👏 the 👏 GOP 👏 further 👏 right 👏.
Abandoning so-called "far left" voters (meaning BIPOC and LGBTQ+ let's not pretend we don't know) just lets the GOP attack whoever's left. Did nobody else read the entire "first they came for..." poem JFC.
This plan....was not a secret.

I asked my doctor today what she thought our chances are of having a flu vaccine this year, and before she opened her mouth to speak, the expression on her face told me I was not overreacting.
I hope these assholes enjoy logging in Monday to several million copies of the Bee Movie script.

Just so we're clear: Trump taking control of the postal system is 100% about voter suppression. He doesn't care about "waste", he cares about restricting voting access for poor, Black, and disabled people.
Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes.
You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment.
My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc.

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.
If I were in a gov't position with the power to approve grants/loan forgiveness/any way to give away money to non-billionaires or deserving institutions, I would be rubber stamping EVERYTHING and doing whatever I could to get those checks out and cashed before Elon steals the entire Treasury.
On the one hand, the "felon" memo feels fake - reported only on X,no news sources confirming (yet). On the other hand, "feels fake" is not a reliable barometer for current events, and straight-up violating the first amendment to make people stop being mean to him would be extremely on brand!

Well thank goodness somebody is out there asking the really tough questions:
