I love seeing AOC dunking on shitheads as much as the next guy, but can we please stop treating it as some kind of victory? It’s not. It’s just words. Bills becoming laws which protect vulnerable people, now that’s worth celebrating. More of that, please. Otherwise, no matter how satisfying the clapback it’s still just talk.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' extreme 6-week abortion ban requires rape victims to provide documentation of the rape. Governor DeSantis doesn't understand that rape victims need help, not hurdles.

I've been disgusted by the lack of professional solidarity among journalists ever since Musk bought Twitter. As Musk bans journalists one-by-one, their colleagues stay on Twitter, tweeting out their work, hoping that they'll survive the next round.

Common Sleeping Pill Could Slow or Stop Alzheimer’s Disease

poor sleep is linked to higher levels of both amyloid and tau in the brain. The question remains as to whether good sleep has the opposite effect β€” a reduction in amyloid and tau levels, and a halt in or reversal of the progress of Alzheimer’s disease β€” but mouse studies with orexin inhibitors have been promising.

It's a total #misframing of #MSNBC and other #news outlets to call the #societal dimension of #GunViolence an β€Ί#epidemicβ€Ή.

Gun violence is a deliberate #choice made by members of a #DeathCult which, for the most part, #disguise themselves as β€Ί#ProLifeβ€Ή:

Plain and simple, the #GOP *wants* people to be killed en masse.

I have a thing for #bears I saw them all the time where I used to live ...it was always a thrill. I guess my bear isn't very well-camouflaged. I wanted to make him look festive instead.

I'm writing a new book about my life after divorcing an extraterrestrial from Venus. I'm calling it: SpaceX.

Cabin filter. Pfffbbt. In my day your car's air conditioner blew pollen in your face and we were thankful!

She's rude, crude, lewd & every word out of her foul mouth spews lies, hate, QAnon crazy & anti-American crap

I know that this won't happen, because institutions are slow-moving by nature, but...

The optimal move for every government agency, every celebrity, every nonprofit, is to loudly quit Twitter and announce everywhere they can, as often as they can, that they have done so--and, particularly, that anyone on Twitter representing themselves *as* them is an impostor.

It won't stop the disinfo, but it will slow it down. To do otherwise is to make the problem much worse.
