So reckless that The New York Times would do this.

It's not "diversity of opinion." It's promoting hate against families, children.

Kevin McCarthy is reminding us: You can NOT appease fascists! After Jan 6, McCarthy slammed Trump. But 2 weeks later he was at Mar-a-Lago groveling to Trump. McCarthy could've done right thing for America, instead he picked MAGA and lost! He DESERVES IT! My new article: https://deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/kevin-mccarthy-is-reminding-us-that

Me after my husband walked right past me and kissed the dog good morning

Things that mean "yes"

-Oh go on then
-If you're having one
-I shouldn’t really
-If we have to
-It's not for me to say
-It'll have to be quick
-Be rude not to
-Just this once
-I won’t say no
-I don’t see why not
-You’ve twisted my arm
-If you insist

@ScottSoCal @TinCanWin possibly. Or they might think YOU are a predator with a captive bird.

Had a dream last night that I met Hugh Grant on Grafton St and I persuaded him to make a film just about Benoit Blanc and his sourdough baking husband.

I can confirm Hugh is totally on for it and hopes to both produce & direct the film 😆

REMINDER: Steve Scalise’s life was saved by a Black lesbian Capitol cop who covered his body with her own while she was shot in the process.   Then Scalise voted against the #EqualityAct. TWICE. That is all you need to know about him. #SteveScaliseIsTrash #NeverSteveScalise

Steph just invited QAnon cult member Lauren Boebert to come back to discuss her feelings about “red flag laws.”

Then Steph did a little monologue about how “we just want to understand what’s going on in Congress and that’s why we had her on.”

Give me a break. That’s what actual journalism is for. This was a bush league ratings grab. Why does absolutely everything have to suck?

Hi astro mastodon!

I just arrived here! I'm Pía Cortés-Zuleta, a chilean astronomer finishing her PhD in France 🔭🥖

I write mostly about my experience as a PhD student, being a latina scientist, and science!

The Internet is savage! 😂😂

Hey friends - I am in Antarctica with extremely slow and limited internet and I have a book coming out this year that I'd normally be posting more about because pre-orders are *critical* to a book's success.

Help me get the word out?

OUT THERE: THE SCIENCE BEHIND SCI-FI FILM AND TV

From black holes to space elevators and extraterrestrial civilizations, this is a rich and beautifully illustrated book for your coffee table. And astronaut Mae Jemison wrote the Foreword!

I’m sick and tired of political pundits refusing to demand that Republicans act responsibly & instead laying that responsibility solely on the Democrats.

They can eff all the way off with the “Dems should…” hot takes in this Speaker debacle. #GOPinDisarray

Do you know who Cheryl Johnson is? You should. Ms. Johnson is the Clerk of the Speaker of the House of Representatives. In lieu of an elected Speaker of the House, she is in charge. This is the first time a black woman has been the presiding officer of the U.S. House of Representatives. Let's hope it takes two years for the Republicans to pick their 'speaker'.

I need your help...

Every day I put out a post to encourage people to Toot about their lives. Mundane or interesting.

I do this is to keep the social aspect of Mastodon alive. It's easy to forget, in a world of niche content, all of the things that make us who we are.

When we share our lives, we can see ourselves in others. We can see what makes us different, and yet the same.

That's beautiful.

So PLEASE, if you see any of my boosts with #today in it, BOOST it.

Let's keep Mastodon social.

Wondering how many well-meaning new #Admin are about to learn that if you let one Nazi feel comfortable in your bar, you're now the Nazi bar.
