Liberals and progressives aren't very good at talking in terms of positive virtue, which is a real problem for Democrats in general right now.

Well yeah. They plan to never leave power, so they may as well have permanent palaces on the military's dime. They don't want elections. They want a dictatorship. And they want Trump's cronies living in gilded cages guarded by the most advanced military in the world.

I hope you understand the part you played in this, @blumenthal.senate.gov. I hope you can comprehend the damage you've done. By couching censorship in "for the children" language, you have given the fascists SO MANY MORE TOOLS of oppression.

That's almost always the case in the CTC. Habs fans buyout the seats months in advance.

Hey @democrats.org, maybe you shouldn't have played games with censorship before all this, huh? It's almost as if all you were EVER doing was putting more surveillance tools in the hands of the fascist GOP, huh?

the demonization of kink and of sexual art in general is always a first step of facism, its literally rooted in nazis stealing β€œdegenerate” art from museums, you do not in fact β€œhave to hand it to em”

I hope this man's children are removed from him. The man openly admits to wanting his children to drown in their own fluids thanks to a disease he intends to expose them to. His children deserve better than a murderous, despicable fascist for a father.

Girl, you *gotta* look into acid-resistant clothing. This is how many times now that fighting, having, or being a slime has dissolved all your stuff? Once or twice is bad luck, but this is becoming a pattern, honey.

Wait... if the Iranians DID put out mines with ships, they would need to also deploy ships to collect/remove said mines. Would *those* ships also get blown up, Mr. Trump? Would you even bother finding out what the ships were there for before sinking them?

Oh, they're already looking for ways they can declare a state of emergency and cancel elections entirely.

Unfortunately, I missed the memo that with the exception of willow and ash, trees are considered a trans *masc* category of names. I'm pretty much the only trans girl I know of who calls herself Rowan, although I know like a dozen trans guys on tumblr who use the name.

Further, ancient druids used to make their staves out of flying rowans, which are rowan trees where the seeds landed and germinated in the crook of another tree, so they're growing from the other tree and not touching the ground. Being closer to the gods made them better channels for magic.

I wanted a name that was a blessing, and rowan trees and rowan wood have a lot of myths about them being protective. The trees are supposed to be gateways to Faerie, and as such, they represent transformation and travel. Also using the wood in door and window frames guards against hostile Fair Folk.

Ask the Weimar Republic how well choosing wishy-washy centrists goes in the fight to oppose fascism.

So Trump is likely guilty of actual treason in a war HE started and no one but him and Netanyahu even wanted? Fantastic.

The people with the money REALLY hate the idea of paying the people that make things, especially if those people make the primary product that the people with money sell. They're finding new and inventive ways to avoid paying, but they have never liked doing it.

These asshole twerps with no brains or education from DOGE really did use ChatGPT to find NEH grants to terminate ILLEGALLY - ruining hundreds lives and destroying hundreds of the greatest humanities projects and partnerships of our time. I’m overwhelmed with rage and anger all over again.

Dems are courting reactionary conservatives because they’re stupid and lazy and don’t want to do the work of getting back their base because reactionary conservatives are also stupid and lazy

I KNOW Tkachuk and Matthews and Hellebuyck and all the rest will never see this, but seriously, you made a CHOICE to do selfies with Kash Patel and eat Big Macs with Trump. No one MADE you do that. Canadians currently fear INVASION from the madmen running the US, and you act like it's no big deal.

Hey #USHockey players on Canadian teams: The problem is not that you played for your home country and won gold in the Olympics. They problem is that after you won, you decided it was fine to cozy up to the fascists who have REPEATEDLY threatened to annex Canada, by force if necessary.

100,000 Homes: Housing the homeless saves money? Giving apartments to the chronically homeless can save taxpayer dollars, advocates say

Anderson Cooper: β€œSo it's more expensive to have a chronically homeless person living on the streets than it is to actually subsidize an apartment for them?”

Answer: β€œYes, we’re paying more as taxpayers to walk past that person on the street and do nothing.” #HousingFirst #UrbanTruth

While true, I suspect that a major factor in the design choice was Han Solo's heavy blaster in Star Wars (which of course was based on the same family of broomhandle guns)

I want there to be a plot where Endmin and Perlica and Mi Fu teach Tangtang to read. They'd have to trick her, be like "oh, um, this is a power play. The Wulingers expect you to not know anything, so wouldn't it be a poke in their eye for the Supreme Chief to be the smartest Stockader?" #Endfield
