seems good + rookie numbers

My state Senator, Vanna Howard, will be voting for the PROTECT Act (and speaking for it on the senate floor). Will yours?

Its #wipwendsday! #wip #feminist #art

I think I've watched so much YouTube that I've *mostly* stopped getting recommendations that weren't at least *mostly* relevant to my interests which probably helps.

I guess it's probably that the sort of infinite YouTube rabbitholes I go down is more what younger folks do with TikTok?

Dang, I'm sorry! That does indeed really suck

I hate that I got this and you will too

a christmas tree w/ disembodied heads of video game characters hanging on branches: sonic, he'man, goro, bubsy, teenage mutant ninja turtles, etc and mario with a plunger is standing at the tip. a couple of consoles are hanging on branches down the bottom and below the tree is some boxed presents with ribbons tied around them.

Nissan LEAF: Gas Powered Everything commercial YouTube video by Motor1

This remains the greatest piece of persuasive advertising ever made about electrification. It's insane to me that Nissan dropped it & it's insane that no one on the green left has picked it up to make it a national PSA.

So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out

"If a street is designed like a gun barrel, people will drive like bullets."

That is a great quote!

🤔 maybe this is all a strategy to wean us off of social media slowly by having it be broken so often we stop doomscrolling/checking constantly

Great, the vibecoding broke images

I stand by my observation that "I'm a GameStop Employee and I'm here to help" is actually the scary phrase lol

It is a personality flaw! Not wanting to have your own children is a totally legitimate life choice. Not liking *any small children* is literally just soft bigotry.

Federal Judge Breaks Trump’s Permitting Blockade The opinion covered a host of actions the administration has taken to slow or halt renewables development.

NEW: A federal judge on Tuesday ruled that key actions Trump took to delay solar and wind projects across the U.S. were illegal (me for @heatmap.news)

this is a very dark accidental joke about foreign news priorities about Africa

I asked X, Paramount, ABC, and Meta where their donations to Trump's Presidential Library went. None of them could give a clear answer.

Tens of MILLIONS of dollars are missing.

Why should Americans trust that this money isn’t going straight into Donald Trump’s pockets?

If anyone wants to try this again with the next MAGA bootlicker, first question:

“Did Kamala Harris lose the 2024 election?”

They will jump at the chance to say yes. These toads HAVE to.

Then the 2020 question.

Based alert

This is horrific. I feel physically ill.

"we ain't gonna be the ones mourning if you don't pay up, capiche?"

Two Mourning Doves at a bird feeder with a built-in camera. One dove is in profile, very close to the camera, and appears to be looking at it, and the other dove is further back, but also looks like it’s staring straight into the lens.

These two Mourning Doves at my feeder cam look like they just rang my doorbell because Tony Soprano sent them to collect a debt I owe.

A clip from The New York Times reads: "But only the entities that officially paid the tariffs are eligible to recover that money. That means that the fuller universe of people affected by Mr. Trump’s policies — including millions of Americans who paid higher prices for the products they bought — are not able to apply for direct relief. The extent to which consumers realize any gain hinges on whether businesses share the proceeds, something that few have publicly committed to do. Some have started to band together in class-action lawsuits in the hopes of receiving a payout."

The average American family paid $1,700 in tariffs last year, according to the bipartisan Congressional Joint Economic Committee. Few will ever see any of that money back. The refunds will go to companies, if doled out at all. What a joke.

Anything other than sitting at the airport waiting in extreme boredom (but I think that's more an ADHD thing for me)

This is a snapshot of the failure of MSM and the concomitant ignorance within the American electorate about what is happening in and to their country.

“Reverse emails,” Jared Kushner corruption edition

He also holds no Senate-confirmed Cabinet or senior government position & employing family as White House advisers violates every norm ever, but this, too, has been erased from the headlines. After years of HUNTER BIDEN, it’s shameful.

We’re defending Western Civilization by kicking Plato and Shakespeare out of university classes.
