The idea that America isn’t for everyone who wants to be an American is something that makes my blood boil. Posting a photo of yourself as a Congressman smiling next to these words is wicked. It’s antithetical to the concept of America.
Now feels like a good time to remember that Big Oil is the reason why we're still hooked on dirty, dangerous fossil fuels.
The industry's lies have essentially stolen a generation’s worth of time that we could have used to transition to cleaner, safer energy sources.
It’s time for accountability.
We've always been at war with EastAsia.

2 years, 9 months, 10 days.
I remember teachers were given professional development on how differently people living in poverty deal with a capitalist society. The point was that without middle class living conditions or even middle class friends, poor people have no chance to understand "money." That is the problem, not EBT.
This is just astonishingly great reporting.
All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them.
And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.
Hey, little MAGAts, did y'all know that the 10 Commandments are part of sHaRiA LaW KENNETH? Y'all are iNViTiNg sHaRiA LaW into our schools!!!!
No.
I would like to point out that this [[[Republican Administration]]] and its [[[Republican President]]] think that bombing one's own citizens is something that a nation might consider doing if it helped their propaganda purposes.
Probably early as 3rd grade; the idea that billions of people on earth were "going to hell" because they had never heard of Jesus gave the lie to the "omnipotent, all-knowing, all-loving" God thing. Everything just fell apart after that.

Moar Bares!
Remember, it's not hypocrisy if you never had a moral compass to begin with.
A parody of a recruitment poster: In the center, a large line drawing of a white feather, referencing the movement during WWI of British women giving white feathers to men of fighting age who were not in the Army; the reference is to cowardice. At the top in big red letters, "Enlist!" At the bottom, also in red letters: "Don't be a coward! Be a man! Enlist in the armed forces and go fight in Iran to defend our Freedom!"

The trick is to be your own #Audience, not your own Critic. There is a difference. (p. 103)
Isn't that fun? It's like, maybe I do belong here after all, you know?
Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday
Why are we doing this
A lovely tuxedo cat achieves perfect relaxation. Catnip may have been involved.

This is *nothing* dignified about wearing a cheap baseball cap that promotes yourself to the otherwise solemn ceremony to receive the bodies of the troops you had killed to distract from your bad economy and rampant pedophilia.
a handsome if dimwitted tuxedo cat naps on his father's music manuscripts in an attempt to "help."
Cecil the Pest™ is determined to be of assistance to his father's transferring music files from Finale to Dorico. #caturday #CatsOfMastodon.
