Flirty Edgar has finally learned to come inside to cool off on hot days. It's only taken him 5 years #CatsOfMastodon

"All of us, conservative or liberal, ought to be able to agree that in America, we shouldn’t honor white supremacist traitors. And anyone who does should be confronted in exactly those terms — no mealy-mouthed hedging, no 'I get where you’re coming from,' none of that. If you’re even willing to tolerate celebration of the Confederacy, you’re saying you’re good with slavery and treason against America."

Perhaps one of one less negative things about the current US government is that many countries on earth are getting more unitied and less depended on the US

The global hate for Trump drives us together

My fellow Americans, do not “Yeah, but…” me about Canada today. We “Yeah, but…” ourselves right into fascism. What happened in Canada yesterday was the right outcome, and deserves celebration.

Good morning and Happy Tuesday. Great job by Canadian voters!

I knew you would do it. Good news to wake up to after an early night to bed.

Well anyway I wish you all a fantastic day!! Be well, stay safe, and look for those pops of goodness/happiness/joy out there.

Cheers!

#100Days & a stark warning to ALL DEMOCRATS
Start acting & speaking like #JBPritzker or step aside
He called on Democrats to be “bold and our ideas fearless…. We must deliver on that agenda for working families & for the real people who truly make US great”

The "truce" Putin declared for May 8–10 isn’t about peace — it’s about protecting VIP guests in Moscow, says Ukraine's Presidential Office.

This move is seen as pure manipulation, not a real step toward ending the war.

(a) Within 90 days…,the AG & the Secy of Defense, in consultation w/the Secy of DHS & the heads of agencies as appropriate, shall increase the provision of excess military & national security assets in local jurisdictions to assist State & local law enforcement.

There are lots and lots of reasons to not want to hang out with MAGA people. But I think the main reason is this:

Y'all are boring as fuck.

Seriously. You bring nothing to the table. Not one damn thing. Your lack of intellectual curiosity is only outmatched by your complete inability to articulate whatever half-witted propaganda is currently rattling around inside your head courtesy of Fox News. You have one brain cell that you share with Peter fucking Doocey of all people, and it shows. If you were at least funny, that would be something. But unfortunately for you, your sense of humor peaked in third grade with racist jokes and South Park memes. All good humor is at least rooted in the truth, and you, champ, are currently fighting a losing battle with reality. Talking with you is like trying to hold a conversation with a bowl of alphabet soup - it achieves nothing, most of the words are misspelled, and in the end the soup contributed fuck all to the discourse.

Disappointing to see @aoc.bsky.social, who had raised serious concerns with the bill in its current form, and how the FTC would abuse it... then vote for it. No votes were Massie (who votes down everything) and Burlison (no idea who that is). clerk.house.gov/evs/2025/rol...
