"When you're a star, they let you do it."

Not today, sparky.

E. Jean Carroll was brave enough to face a system that victim shames, and a former president who used his platform for further attacks. Trump wasn't even brave enough to testify. Over $5 million awarded to #EJeanCarrol.

Voting for the "lesser of two evils" is how you get LESS EVIL!

Why do people struggle to understand that?

Wow! My credit card has 5,290,563 points, I'm so excited, but I can't decide if I will get the pencil topper or the kazoo.

(tiny soft mouse voice): i'm so... heckin...
(ferocious dragon roar): SLEEEEEEEEEEEPYYYYYYY :screech:​

maybe I'm reading this sign wrong but it says we should set this store on fire?

Well I'm not sure why they would want someone to set their store on fire but we have to listen to the sign right?

Yes on sexual abuse, no on rape (intercourse), yes on defamation, yes on lying, $5 million awarded to @ejeancarroll

But you can't put a price on the vindication she is entirely entitled to.

There's still a weird urge among some journalists to pretend Elon Musk's politics can't be captured by normal labels.

He's very far right! He thinks banal, nonpartisan, routine conferences for election officials are "far left." This is not complicated!

This was something I had failed to consider. Police departments in the US are standing armies. This might be why we don't protest like the French. Police in the US are far too militarized without all of the training.

@edwardchampion @barney @GreenFire @JamesBazan @mentallyalex We also need to keep in mind that we’ve never given Democrats big enough majorities in the national level to accomplish codifying Roe although we can’t actually codify it now, Roe itself. Ship sailed. On the local level where the majorities are sufficient, Democrats are doing quite a lot.

Never going to get tired of telling the @TexasObserver’s rebirth story. Here’s my editor’s note from our May/June issue ON NEWSSTANDS NOW. Go here to get a copy πŸ‘‰ hype.co/@texasobserver/4ed8z2x #TexasNeedsAnObserver

We are being held hostage by a bunch of 17th century farmers' with a fifth grade education understanding of modern high-capacity military grade tactical weaponry.

@StillIRise1963 I feel compelled to point out here that the right since Ray Gun has systematically worked to defund, delegitimize, debase, and deregulate the mental health system, the education system, the social welfare system, etc. to reward the 1% with tax cuts and get re-elected on the promise of lower taxes.

That people who voted for them are now wondering why "nothing fucking works" is at best a false flag.

Similar to it's the guns, it's the RepubliKKKans. Vote differently.

What's YOUR favorite planet? There are eight in our solar system and billions beyond, and we've confirmed 5,347 of them. So, if you don't have a favorite yet, stay tuned! Maybe we're still looking for it? Exoplanets.nasa.gov

@StillIRise1963 Mississippi is ranked overall 49th in healthcare. It has one of the highest rates of uninsured citizens. The state is one of only 10 that have not expanded Medicaid. State supreme court quashed an initiative that would have put Medicaid expansion on the ballot in 2021.
Sensing a pattern here?
