Went for a walk in the rain

Anyway, long story short, I can still do the splits

@CableSt @kityates
sunk-cost fallacy

The phenomenon whereby a person is reluctant to abandon a strategy or course of action because they have invested heavily in it, even when it is clear that abandonment would be more beneficial.

Millions of new jobs. More access to affordable health care. Historic investments in climate, infrastructure, veterans benefits, and gun reform.

I'm proud of what we've delivered for the American people this year.

Have you bought food? If so, you've "Coordinated and administered hunger relief efforts". Bonus points if you've done it while traveling in other countries, because then it was international.

@MJ That’s alarming as hell. Courts matter and only recently people have really started to pay attention to it.

Look at what Republicans have done to our courts.

Reagan started the main problem in this country. He’s where the rot began. Reagan made it a mission to destroy peoples’ faith in the government they voted for, catered to bigots and racists (lies about β€œwelfare queens”), eroded the separation of church and state, defunded and sabotaged public schools, broke unions, and put into office knowing saboteurs to dismantle the departments of the government they were supposed to administer (now a time honored GOP tradition.)

And that’s a non-comprehensive list.

The Trump GOP is a worse version that doesn’t bother to hide the racism and hate behind a club door. It doesn’t matter who they put up in his place if for some reason it’s not Trump. They’re all bad.

Democracy isn’t safe at all with this going on.

Amazing isn't it? Millions of people in Texas are without power and all their MAGA hatting governor can think of to do is to trick 100 migrants into taking a 22 hour bus ride to be dropped off outside Kamala Harris's house in freezing weather wearing T-Shirts.

If you think this is smart politics or owning the libs or good in any sort of way, then you are dead inside. I don't want to know you professionally or personally.

Trump has turned the GOP nomination race into a contest in which the candidates all try to show how evil they are.

My husband was teaching me how to play chess and he says okay first rule, white goes first

Hopefully this will help during the next 2 years, while the GQP-controlled House desperately searches for Hunter Biden's dick pics.

Add a modifier, and I'm with you:
Republican Congress: shitposts, fundraises, and goes on TV.

George, if that’s even your real name, if you’re so convinced that #NY3 voters still trust you - resign & run against me again in a special election. Face the voters with your real past & answer questions about your criminal history. Let the voters decide nypost.com/2022/12/26/rep-elec

In 1925, Dr. Cecilia Payne completed her PhD thesis, described as β€œthe most brilliant ever written in astronomy.” At a time when few #women entered academia, Payne discovered what the universe is made of. Her work began a revolution in astrophysics.

Dr. Payne-Gaposchkin became the 1st female professor & 1st female department chair at Harvard. Given most of us remember names like Darwin & Newton, we should also celebrate Payne. #science #space

Most of my friends who saw Glass Onion hated it. I find it so interesting how intense the negative reactions to RJ's movies can be. I had a great time with it.
