Feeling for you. That's so tough. 💕💕💕

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

Gerrymandering is moving a voting map around. Merry Gandering is what is good for the goose on christmas, axiomatically

also I think this edible hit

A close up of a gander Canada goose standing on the shoreline of the backwaters of the Mississippi River. Sprigs of a budding boxelder tree overlap him in the foreground.

I'm not quite sure where the nest is but this gander has been standing guard for a couple days now. 😍 #birdsky

It’s a mark of how completely normalised the corruption & depravity have become that we barely bat an eyelid at the thought of two *property developers*, one Trump’s nepo baby son-in-law, being sent to represent the USA in peace negotiations with Iran. Sometimes it all hits you afresh.

The best part about being a house cleaner!

am endlessly fascinated by these guys as humanities students

Italy passed a law that allows up to 3 days off to care for ill pets.

Best of luck to you! thank you for caring for these animals.A jumping spider, a paper wasp, a garter snake, and a monarch butterfly all needed the help i was happy to give and survived.I like to believe the bat and litter of squirrels i took to the rescue are thriving. My sincerest gratitude.

I live vicariously off people like you. 🤩

Are they yours?! So cute!!!!

EVERYONE SHUT UP THERE WAS ANOTHER MOON NEWS CONFERENCE TODAY!

here beginneth the liveskeet:

The congressional switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your cell phone. Use it. If you're not calling at least once a week, you're not doing your part.

The Dem caucus meets privately, decides on an outcome, then has most of its members vote whichever way the base wants and assigns the GOP-friendly votes to a handful of Dem House members who won't be hurt by that vote. (Often this is based on the makeup of an individual district.)

It is fixed.

it's fucking great being consistently disappointed by your own species like holy shit every day a new low for humanity

Boyfriend comes out on balcony.
Me: Sorry you caught me listening to a couple of racists.

Again; there was more force ready to deploy against homeless people every single year than there is against any of these criminals.

Age verification is about tracking us, targeting marginalized folks, and crushing protest.

You're not going to convince me any "Age verification ID to protect children" is legit from the govt. who has several leaders, administrative officials, university heads, and celebrities in Epstein files whose heads are not lopped off in 4K to Chariots of Fire on our new "Kill a Predator" holiday.

More interviewers really should just be willing to laugh in the face of abject fucking stupidity, honestly.

unmute, this is 100% right

The same people that want the Pope to stay out of politics want to force their religion in our classrooms.

A chunk of blue-grey fluff that is actually a very soft kitten sitting on a library desk. They are doing a very serious Kitten Face and have very intent yellow-gold eyes, and they would be so scary and fierce if they were more than six inches tall and not so hugely adorable when they tried to be judgey.

The news all sucks today.

Here's a kitten in a library!

For all those still feeling the moon joy—Artemis II was brought to you by public schools and publicly funded science. Copy that! 👩‍🚀🚀💕

*All four astronauts went to public schools!

Nailed it

The new prime minister of Hungary is sitting on a tile floor with his three cats.

Tuxedo is bored with the shenanigans. Tabby has energy to go go go! Do NOT mess with the Void.

There are good lessons to learn about voting, organizing etc.

But I worry people will learn the wrong lesson about concessions. Orban conceded. Trump never will. We cannot get lulled into a false sense of security for 2026.

More tomorrow…

Less than three hours after the polls closed, Viktor Orban conceded that he lost. Five years after Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, he still falsely claims that he won.

Tomorrow, I offer my analysis of what this means for the midterms. Subscribe now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz
