The thing about January 6th, and especially about how Republicans behaved in the aftermath, is that the veil dropped.

We all saw how willing Republicans were to murder Americans and rig elections to hold power, and we all saw them doing so without remorse or regret.

We can't unsee that now, and Republicans know we cannot unsee that, so their only path forward is to accelerate the purges, the imprisonments, and the killings. We are at a very dangerous moment.

History can and should choose to remember Elon Musk as a man who pledged $6 billion to end world hunger, balked when presented with a plan to do so, and then spent several times that amount to prove that no amount of money can make people think you’re funny and cool.

The state of Georgia believes it is a felony to say that Jonathan Salcedo murdered a protestor at Cop City. So do not, under any circumstances, say that Jonathan Salcedo is a murderer who murdered a protestor at Cop City.

I dunno what you want me to say:

A fascist got himself elected president of the United States, did a bunch of fascist shit, and then tried a type of coup known as an autogolpe - a coup to keep a strongman in power anti-democratically. Instead of putting that guy's ass in jail, we're putting him all over our TV under the logic that "he's running for office, so stopping him is anti-democratic."

In many ways, Weimar Germany would laugh at how weak WE are; so the comparison is more than apt.

Give a man a fish, and Republicans immediately blame you for inflation. Teach a man to fish, and they call you a woke Marxist and pass a law banning Fishing Studies.

If you can't handle someone else's gender identity, maybe you need to work on your own insecurities.

Google’s vision for the future of search shows how generative AI is all about increasing corporate power.

Instead of sending you to different websites, Google has scraped the open web to generate plagiarized answers to keep you looking at ads on Google. We need to stop being distracted by AI hype and fantasies about intelligent machines, so we can push back on the real threats before it’s too late.

Kind of feel that if we have to live in an age where a politician can just say anything and live in a crazy fantasy world where it's assumed true, it's such a shame that the lies are all so fascisty and boring and not like "vote for me, literally all of you will be an astronaut in my term" or something

The Republicans is goneeeeeeeeeeeeeee.they're all white supremacist and white supremacist sympathizer.

This is the 2nd time recently I've been working in this coffee shop & I swear they're trying to kill me. Last time it was all Bikini Kill & the Gossip & Yeah Yeah Yeahs and basically my dream playlist of fierce female-fronted music of a certain vibe, and now they are literally going song by song through my high school consciousness. We've had the Cure, the Specials, New Order, Joy Divis, even that one Sonic Youth song from the Planned Parenthood benefit album from 1992.
