NBC News poll

Voters hold negative views of Al. In fact, the only topics less popular in the survey were the Democratic Party and Iran.

For those wondering, Hotchkiss was explicitly founded as a feeder school for Yale which banned women until the 1970s.

Graham Platner is in every reasonable definition an elite cosplaying as a member of the working class, something Trump did to remarkable effect.

It's all vibes for y'all out there

We can’t clean up Washington without restoring integrity to the Supreme Court.

That’s why I believe we should expand the Supreme Court to 13 justices. And then, institute term limits.

Because an appointment to the Supreme Court shouldn’t mean a lifetime lack of accountability.

That's right. You got no leg to stand on, Newsom supporters. Shut your hole. We don't need anti trans anti homeless greaseball shit. North Carolina is purple, it's not some blue stronghold.

Again, it is interesting that a single generation was entrusted with the richest, most advanced empire the world had ever known and was just uninterested in keeping it going

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done

- started a war in the middle east

trans people: “please try to understand how alarmingly bad this is. Imagine for one second how difficult your life would be if your driver’s license was suddenly made invalid overnight”

cis people: “no thanks. sucks you’re dealing with that though”

Here’s the thing about folks speedrunning the creative process with AI:

I could go to the beach every morning and put a grain of sand in a cup. They’d take their cup to the beach and fill it one day; but the point isn’t to have a cup of sand. It’s to fill my life with a thousand trips to the beach.

I'm really sick of liberals and centrists thinking that compromise is something you start with instead of something you end with

The reason you can’t give a single inch on anything be it trans rights or dignity for unhoused people is that they, democrats and republicans alike, will take it and say thanks what else is in your pockets? They won’t say thanks actually.

When Gavin Newsom says "the Democrats need to be more culturally normal" with "less focus on pronouns" what he's actually saying is "the trannies aren't normal and don't normalize them."

A lot of Republicans who insist that the system is rigged against people like them have a perverse admiration for people in power who take everything they can get. They tell themselves they'd do the same thing if they had the chance.

Forcing people into the wrong bathrooms, stripping them of accurate IDs, and allowing government-sanctioned harassment doesn’t make ANYONE safer.

This hatred CANNOT spread — get involved in your area to ensure that legislators oppose any future anti-equality bills: hrc.im/volunteer

the overseer of project 2025 is telling you out loud that every inch you cede on trans rights is part of the plan to create a white christian fascist state

Trans panic is wack, and anyone who buys into it would have been a sucker for any of history's sorriest attempts at scapegoating a convenient minority.

I think about how when they sang La Marseillaise they were still in the midst of a war they did not know they were going to win.

this quoted post is uninformed nonsense. policy changes towards trans people have been profound at both the state and federal level.

the EEOC won’t even process charges of trans discrimination right now for fucks sake.

interesting to think that revolutionary era americans understood themselves as making a break with the “old world” and establishing a new civilization. and crucially, this new civilization rested on republican self-government, not “sovereignty.”

A lot of our political discourse would be easier if we didn't extend good faith to people who would never extend it back.

Tell me when banning something has worked. Age verification laws DONT WORK.

If you want kids to be safe- support their parents with the ability to PARENT- help them provide safety and mental health. Help them provide activities and education.

Help empower parents to PARENT IN THE DIGITAL AGE.

Really good illustration about why all these "online ID verification" bills that tech companies are pushing are NOT about improving child safety and are ENTIRELY something else. Don't fall for them and don't let your elected Reps either.

My @mprnews.org colleague & I rode along with observers after the Twin Cities surge at the start of December, well before most national publications came to town. It was really necessary to get at what ICE is really doing on the ground & how people are opposing it.
