"It's not MSNBC anymore, Lemon. It's MS NOW. We bought the name off of a defunct multiple sclerosis awareness organization. It wasn't cheap, but we were able to save some money by selling Brian Williams to a Saudi prince who wanted to expand his harem."
It’s amazing that Washington DC can achieve its lowest crime rate in 30 years when 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is experiencing its highest crime rate in history.
Safari with Kagi (need to install a plugin to make it the default search engine, but worth the extra step).
This explains the MAGA crowd.
Start your morning with two minutes of the testimony of Samuel Garcia, an average American who drove 3 hours to speak truth to power to the Texas legislature. Let’s decide that we are all Samuel Garcia. Get in their faces and make them listen. Mr. Garcia is a great American.
You know that scene in an action movie when the bad guy runs through the kitchen of a restaurant and pulls down all the pots and pans behind him to slow down his pursuers? We're in that part of the Trump presidency.
The right-wing backlash against #Superman this week got me thinking: Has this happened before? That led to the discovery of these headline — from April 1940, when the official newspaper of the SS took umbrage at the comic book hero and ridiculed its creators. My how times change ...
We are living in an alternate timeline where Beaver is evil and Eddie Haskell is a good influence…
Breaking: The new Trump phone will only come in white.

#NoKings
Either works
Perfectly sums up Trump’s second term
The most Los Angeles sign ever. And it’s true.
Philly showin' up today
Just finished up at the Evanston No Kings rally. It was safe, peaceful, and a show of solidarity by *at least* 1,000 people. Go to your local protest. Don’t let this administration scare you. Stand with your community when our leaders won’t.

I want an Oompa-Loompa, Daddy. I want an Oompa-Loompa now!
Pathetic. We need to do better.
If Jesus Christ showed up today, this regime would immediately deport him to a foreign supermax prison without due process. And then they would brag about it on Twitter.
Someone on X pointed out the scant coverage of Ron Johnson saying 9/11 was an inside job. The press assumes Republicans are crazy and malevolent, so when they say crazy stuff it doesn't get covered. But they assume Dems are competent & sane, so any data point to the contrary is treated as big news.
Protest sign from 1st term
Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"
It's baby duck season at #Disneyland.
America NEEDS Pete to explain and communicate the fundamentals. Please keep up the good work.
Exactly…
No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.
Elon is fundamentally evil on a scale of the worst dictators in history. Unimaginable wealth and he's spending his time perpetuating cruelty while enabling the deaths of millions. He's an existential threat to everyone on this planet.
If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.
One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!
More of this, America.
Ooo this is a good one ☺️

Seriously? Time to rise to the occasion.
Making us less safe is, sadly, the point. I think they are counting on an incident that will give them the opportunity to declare martial law. There was a reason he said we wouldn’t need to vote again.
WTF, Apple?

I don't think about the Roman Empire all that often but I do lament how here in the 21st century, we are completely incapable of flooding a stadium and staging a mock naval battle, what are we even fucking doing
For all of those who have posted my cartoon with my signature cut off, here is the original.
for the first time ever, solar power generation overtakes coal in the eu the change since 2011 is staggering (and will continue widening)
If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Sergeant Gonell @sergeantaqgo.bsky.social sent me this picture. This is his call log. Each call is an automated Dept of "Justice" notification saying "The defendant you testified against is being released from the dept of corrections." Each defendant assaulted him.
We're trapped in a game of Monopoly where oligarchs own all the property and the rest of us are simply making our way around the board trying to avoid financial ruin. They've also bought the bank and the government, so they can change the rules to their liking. It's game over or time for a reset.
Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso is on Face the Nation saying Republicans won’t provide federal aid for the Los Angeles fires without “strings attached,” effectively punishing LA for voting Dem. It’s grossly undemocratic that he has the same power as a California senator representing 67 times more people

Elon’s estranged daughter has re-entered the chat
x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.
This is worth another watch
Holy shit, this is 100% accurate 😆
Reminder that this image is real. From a million miles away, NASA captured Moon crossing face of Earth.
Indeed, this is where we are.
* Elon demands bipartisan bill be changed in unhinged tweetstorm * Republicans renegotiate bill with themselves * 38 Republicans refuse to vote for the new Elon-approved bill * Elon blames Democrats Only the dumbest people would fall for this.
"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all." Arthur C. Clarke
The collective net worth of America's richest 12 men is now over $2 TRILLION The BOTTOM 50% of Americans have a collective net worth of $3.82 TRILLION
This is an oligarchy. The founders never intended people to have this much power… EVER Stop the oligarchy
This goes one of two ways: our democracy sinks beneath the ocean permanently (80%) or the backlash against billionaires is shocking in its size, scope and fury (20%) The latter would take people realizing that a very small group of people are destroying Earth, but it's not as fun as owning the libs
Musk explains his X algorithm
Exactly.
What?
The trickle-down myth is deeply embedded in the American psyche and it’s beyond time to excise it.
If only he once had his own nationally broadcast reality TV show to make him appear sane to the masses…
What they are so afraid of? Live and let live. Love and let love.
Your IKEA product name is your name spelled backwards with an umlaut. Nivëk, a table lamp whose bulbs are only found in Lisbon.
Truth.
This era is strange because it is both socially/culturally regressive, yet technologically accelerationist. Backward + forward at the same time. With human erasure being the goal. I think those interested in cultural preservation, archival work— resisting erasure will be *especially* important.
"Smart people mostly underestimate themselves, and ignorant people always consider themselves brilliant." (This is also known as the Dunning-Kruger effect.)
The average American got 7 out of 11 questions correct on this Pew Research science 🧪 quiz. You can do better, right?
There are more good people in this world than bad. The bad ones just tend to yell louder.

America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth. The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%. Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.
Great. As if we need a fish to tell us…
Tariffs will make prices lower and Mcdonalds will make everyone healthy and a criminal will end crime.

But don’t worry. Oklahoma is buying thousands of Bibles for their public schools.
Let me say something that is controversial because our brains are broken: Vaccines are a miracle and amazing

In the week since the U.S. presidential election, Elon Musk has used X, the social media platform he owns, to reiterate his support for President-elect Donald Trump. Some of X’s users have decided they want to post elsewhere. Among the largest beneficiaries of that desire is Bluesky. nyti.ms/48JtYAt
