"a big turnout for Kamala will help Democrats in House, Senate, and state legislatures win their races. That will allow President Harris to pass meaningful legislation to help the American peopleβincluding legislation to reform the Supreme Court and enact nationwide protections for reproductive liberty. It doesnβt get any better than that!
We must turn enthusiasm into votes. We can do that!"

And another headline, this one from Huffington Post right now:
@mastodonmigration WaPo was definitely worse in my opinion, especially the one that tries to paint it as something Harris has to deal with. Itβs something Trump did that will damage him in this election and that should be the coverage.
I am tired of saying it but the Washington Post should not be relied on for political news or information. A couple of good articles here and there arenβt enough.
There are MILLIONS of Americans living abroad. We need to find them and get them voting. Only about 9% of #USExpats #vote, usually because they donβt know they can.
Help us to get the word out!

Did social media fan the flames of the Southport riot? π€π₯ In the wake of a tragic attack, misinformation spread rapidly on X, leading to unrest fueled by anti-immigrant sentiments. π«π As communities grieve, we must question the role of online platforms in escalating tensions. #Southport #SocialMedia #Misinformation #Riot #Community For more details:
"Ukraine is fighting for itself, for survival. And if the whole world thought the way we do, I'm sure we would have already stopped the russians. If we didn't have half-sanctions and half-solutions, we would have already stopped putin. Of course, they stopped.
The world is much stronger, the world is much bigger, much more powerful, principled, economically stronger. But semi-sanctions. Everything is "half"."
-Volodymyr #Zelenskyy, President of #Ukraine

Ummm, #WTAF?
#FauxNews host #JesseWatters told his male viewers that if they vote for a #woman, they have "mommy issues."
then even more ludicrously #Watters said:
βI heard the scientists say the other day that when a man votes for a woman, he actually transitions into a woman."

That was a hell of a thing.
I now adore #RachelScott of #ABC even more.
This is how every #Trump interview & debate should be conducted.
After he took his seat, #ABCNewsβ Rachel Scott asked, βI want to start by addressing the elephant in the room, sir. A lot of people did not think it was appropriate for you to be here today.β
She cited numerous false claims Trump made about #Obama & #NikkiHaley, along w/other remarks attacking Black figures & people of color.

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
