Reposted. Really gorgeous and impactful. Thanks for sharing!
A digital painting of an orange Shiba Inu dog sitting inside a house in the forest, in front of a large glass door. The dog is nose to nose with a red fox sitting outside the glass. The two animals have a very similar appearance.
A new friend who looks like me
Of course, plenty of people got here long before me. However, my various privileges shielded me from this feeling of profound disgust. While they still conspire to shield me in all kinds of ways, the election really opened my heart to a new kind of darkness. 2/2
As 11/5 begins to recede in the rear-view, I realize how much of a personal turning point it was for me. Before, I could have *told* you why the US was flawed. After, I *feel* that fact viscerally, and I think I’ll never have any affection for this place again. 1/2
Anyone who believes that any one religion, race, ethnicity, orientation, or lifestyle solely represents that which is properly American is incapable of appropriately serving the general good and should be considered unqualified to hold public office of any kind.
America is over 334 million people. The idea you’re gonna run all of this like 13 colonies subsidized by enslaved Black labor is dumb. We need to keep pointing this out since it’s the core of conservatism. www.oliverexplains.com/p/the-right-...
This isn’t just The Good Place.
It’s The Resistance Place.
Ugh. Was she always this obnoxious, or did something snap in the process of twisting herself into an arch transphobe?
It’s Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood minus all that pesky “care for your neighbors” bullshit.
There’s a narrative that Gaetz was a deliberate head-fake — a distraction to boost the real candidate — but I am always suspicious of narratives that attribute four-dimensional chess to trump as opposed to knocking over the table and eating the checkers.
Reductive, sure, but still true more often than not. At least in Texas.
This is a recipe for disaster
Picture of Nancy Mace With the words, “Show me your genitals.”
This is what I hear from Nancy Mace’s mouth now whenever she talks.

'Namaste' except it's where my dumpster fire recognizes your dumpster fire.

There is a pattern.
Keep “predators” from assaulting women by obsessing over women’s genitals.
“Protect” American workers by raising their cost of living through tariffs.
“De-politicize” the Justice Department by letting Matt Gaetz lead it.
Everything is Newspeak with these venal cultists.
So true. 💯
Dana Goldberg post: I have shared the same bathroom with Sarah McBride on several occasions, and she never once made me uncomfortable. She did however help me fix my makeup. That congresswoman knows how to blend her foundation, which is more than I can say about Donald Trump.
They say the cover up is always worse.
I heard that Andrew Tate tried to come stretch his awkward wings here and got banned in just one day.
Sorry, hate has no home here. Stay in the bad place, thanks.
Ugh. My fucking state.
“What radicalized you?” Bro I was told to treat people the way I would want to be treated in kindergarten and it made sense idk what else there is to say
Hope for the best, plan for the worst. But, yeah. I’m with you. It sucks hard.
Americans saw this amazing woman and decided to vote for a convicted felon who wants to give tax cuts to billionaires and will cut Medicare, Social Security, education funding, and housing assistance to pay for it.
