Not pictured: my infant!
I’ve heard lots of GOP rhetoric about Democrats being anti-children or anti-family.
I don’t have a job bc Vought and Trump fired me. I’m here to bear witness. The handful of times she’s cried so far, Capitol police asked us to leave.
Screenshot of Pope Leo XIV’s posts this am as he visits Cameroon “Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.” “#Peace is not something we must invent: it is something we must embrace by accepting our neighbor as a brother or sister. We do not choose our brothers and sisters: we must simply accept one another! We are one family, inhabiting the same home: this wonderful planet that ancient cultures have cared for over millennia. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon”
👀 “Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.”
Wonder who he is talking about?
Pope Leo leaning in fearlessly with his message. This is what courage looks like.
NYT headline "Vance Says the Pope Should Be More Careful When Talking About Theology"
one of the best NYT headlines ever. We have newly baptized JD Vance telling the "infallible" Pope how to do the religion part of his job
I'm as lapsed as a Catholic can be (don't tell my mother) but even i know that is not how it works
It's the Chicago Way baby
Dear @tcmtv.bsky.social: Once you're ready to debut this on air, please make it a triple feature with Dishonored Lady and Madeleine! #TCMParty
Chicago White Sox post on X: "you wanted them, you're ALL getting one" "POPE HATS FOR EVERYONE @ RATE FIELD" Photo of a Chicago White Sox player in a pope hat.
👀 this is fantastic #Pope promotion from the Chicago #WhiteSox and a pretty poignant statement for the time we are in.
It's been nearly five hours since the president of the United States posted a graphic snuff video of a man beating a woman to death with a hammer and there's no mention of it on the New York Times, Washington Post or CNN websites.
Sending out a bat signal to my fellow Joan Crawford fans and classic movie obsessives . . . here's a true cause for celebration.
Unavailable for nearly 90 years, her legendary 1932 precode Letty Lynton is at long last getting a restoration. I can. not. wait!

Swear to the almighty I'll vote for whoever primaries this fool in '28. WhoEVER. The first Uber driver willing to take me to JFK. The oldest cat at Brooklyn ACC. Either one of the nesting doves in our backyard, I don't CARE. If he survives a primary I'll write in Nan Goldin, I am DONE.
Whatever it is they're gonna preemptively Streisand-Effect the shit out of it. Fun. 🍿
Dems need to be flying back to DC immediately and canceling all district events. "Sorry, I can't make the Rotary Club meeting because the president is a demented psychopath who is about to unleash war crimes and I'm needed in the Capitol."
Urgency must also be in deeds, not just words.

"A whole civilization will die tonight." — Trump
📺 JD Vance underscores it:

JFC. It's clear that *bloodthirsty sociopathic Trump regime* wants to drop a nuke or destroy Iran w/equiv. force, creating a genocide.
Rs own this bc *they chose not to stop him*. They are on vacay.
Every single Democrat in Congress and every single Democrat around the country - running for any federal office need to sign on to this - now. Sooner rather than later.
A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!
God help us.
The tides are turning against the book banners, it appears:
"The simple fact is that we have a president who is irresponsible, reckless, and indeed unhinged. And he’s all the more dangerous because he is unconstrained by both his subordinates in the executive branch or by Congress." - @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social on why Cong. needs to move 4 impeachment.
BREAKING: Democrat Alicia Halvensleben has defeated Republican Scott Allen in the Waukesha, Wisconsin mayoral race, flipping the seat.
This marks a major political shift in one of the most historically conservative suburbs in the Milwaukee area and follows a night of major shifts away from the GOP.
A photo of Mayor Mamdani watering grass with a watering can. The watering can is labeled “NYC parents who take the NYC Parent Survey at nyc gov/ParentSurvey” The grass is labeled “Universal Child Care”
We’re growing universal child care in New York City, and we want to make sure it helps parents where and how the they it need most.
Parents, please take the quick survey at nyc.gov/ParentSurvey so we can incorporate your personal preferences into our current and upcoming free child care programs.
Ever wonder how to get rid of a mattress? Or how to find resources for a neighbor in need? Call 311.
311 is contacted 100,000 times every day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year. No call is too small.
So on the anniversary of 311 (3/11), I decided to answer some of those calls myself.
The pattern behind the posturing How madman diplomacy shows up It is not always a strategy often it is their temperament Deliberate unpredictability in words or actions Public threats that break diplomatic convent Disregard for established norms or alliances Personalized decision making often bypassing institutions High risk tolerance even when consequences are severe These leaders may differ in ideology and context but they tend to share common traits
*You can't tell me Trump hasn't been psych profiled by nations around the globe.*
Did they just not believe he would go this far? Not willing ready to rock the boat?
History will record that no one stopped this monster as he knocked down every guardrail, & blackmailed or terrorized opponents.
The Iranian embassy in Iran quote tweets Trump's insane 'Fuckin Strait tweet with the comment: "This low level of civility and intelligence shown by a leader of a country is regrettable; the shameful fervor with which intentions to commit war crimes are repeated is staggering; and the fact that the Divine is invoked regardless of ill intentions clearly exposes deep fanaticism. Apologies for sharing this language." Trump's tweet reads: "Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP"
my entire timeline on x is now just iranian embassies demonstrating a facility with the english language that puts everything i've ever read from the trump administration to shame
Democrats should be introducing articles of impeachment now and forcing Republicans to say no. Yes, it won't work. But at least force those fuckers to defend this shit to the public. I don't know what else to say at this point.
people split hairs about the genocide classification all the time, but Trump unambiguously wrote down his intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national group, and then he broadcast it out
Dear Humans,
If a Dem candidate for 2028 is not running first on EXACTING SWIFT AND WONDERFUL JUSTICE on the war criminals in this administration, then you must join with me in throwing that candidate into the lake of fire.
Thanks,
God
“Let those who have weapons lay them down,” Pope Leo XIV said in his first Easter address. “Let those who have the power to unleash wars choose peace! Not a peace imposed by force, but through dialogue! Not with the desire to dominate others, but to encounter them!” religionnews.com/2026/04/05/p...
A+ headline.
Pope Leo XIV carried the cross across all fourteen stations for over an hour.
The prayers named children who had been “taken away and imprisoned during protests, deported by policies devoid of compassion, shipwrecked on desperate journeys of hope, killed in war zones, and wiped out in death camps.”
