Maybe it's not a puppy. My mom's Maltipoo is 18 years old. He's a happy little guy, and he walks like this because he's ancient. Sure, something is technically wrong with him, but that something can't be fixed, AND he's happy. Doesn't have to be either or.
It’s like “sales” They know they’re lying but they need the money‼️
Comedian Rita Brent previews Gloria Gaynor’s upcoming Kennedy Center performance
He does. I've seen several instances of this.
My name is Graham Platner. I'm the oysterman and Marine veteran running against Susan Collins. In 10 days we raised $1 million and signed up 3,000 volunteers. Please share this. Spread the word. Help us build something strong enough to defeat the billionaire class.a
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
Thank you. I've been asking this question for a decade. It makes no sense.
- Appreciate Newsom Fighting Fire w/ Fire - Appreciate Pritzker Standing Up for Texas Dems - Appreciate Mamdani Bringing Fresh Hope to the Party - Appreciate AOC and Bernie Taking On the Oligarchs We need ALL of these voices now! Let's worry about 2028 after we secure OUR VOTE and DEMOCRACY.
You seem a decent fellow. I hate to die.
Why I bought a Brother printer. It doesn't do that.
I got my kids phones at a younger age than I would have preferred, but they were far from unsupervised. With the restrictions, they could only contact pre-approved numbers and needed me to approve apps and websites.
I wasn't trying to correct you, just adding to what you said.
Worse, she facilitated and participated in those crimes.
I feel like we should all be able to get onboard with the belief that starving people shouldn't be intentionally slaughtered while trying to get food. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/24/w...
Our beautiful president has taxed the poor, sent troops to stomp through playgrounds in California, opened up concentration camps, doubled the price of seemingly random goods for no discernible reason, and bombed a foreign country just to do it. And yet these ungrateful peasants are unhappy?
🎧 What if you were forcibly taken from your sick child, knowing you would never see them again? Stories like this are so hard to hear, but please don't look away... Amplify them, talk about them, and never allow yourself to become desensitized. 😭 Evil thrives in silence. 🎥 @attorneykatelg (Insta)
Thank you for posting this. I was about to go looking for it. 🤣
Thankfully, many of these are still required reading for middle and high-school students in our district.
Mine had a clear cord
In just four counties in Central Texas--Hayes, Williamson, Bexar, and Kerr--700,000 people voted for Vice President Harris. Just those four counties had more votes for VP Harris than the total votes for her in 14 states and D.C. I understand you're angry, but that anger is very misplaced.
Same!
No disassemble!
"Seems a nice fellow. Quiet. Wonder if my Times has come?"
I haven’t seen nearly enough people talking about this. The levels of greed and inhumane thinking on display is actually terrifying. America really is dystopian as fuck.
Chicago police department accompany protesters -not escalating protests - yesterday and the day before as Americans chant, “No walls, no registry, no white supremacy.” Thank you Chicago. BTW: MAGA are always talking shit about Chicago. They are wrong about everything.👇
He stood in front of our troops today and gave a mean spirited, partisan speech. He stood in front of our troops today and attacked Americans by name. He stood in front of our troops today and goaded them into booing their fellow Americans. Never become desensitized to this.
❤️
He still has about 150 years left on his 200-year sentence in the state of Illinois. He will now have to convince the Prisoner Review Board to recommend that Pritzker pardon him. He's not being released any time soon. chicago.suntimes.com/the-watchdog...
I very much enjoyed that book and the sequel, Echopraxia.
Here’s the thing, if they are picking up folks working in the country illegally, I’m going to need to see some white guys also being arrested for employing people working illegally in the country. Otherwise, it’s just racism.

My very bright but differently wired kid needed to be homeschooled for two years. Hardest job I've ever had, but your Crash Course videos helped immensely! Thank you!
MAKE NOISE ON THIS ONE‼️ They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador. Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose. No charges. No record. Just a suspicion.

It is so tragic and highly embarrassing that someone so vile, petty, and bereft of decency is the president. I will never understand or have peace with it.
Over 90% of Americans rely on federally funded science, But only 10% are worried about losing access to it. That’s a dangerous disconnect. Help us close the gap. Join our #SummerFightForScience and help spread the word about how essential science is to everyday lives. www.npr.org/2025/05/06/n...

TANK vs TESLA "We've crushed fascism before and we'll crush it again" - WW2 veteran Ken, 98, in the tank
The rules of the internet clearly state that when you see Tom Holland's Umbrella, you're required to share it.
My 16yo: People are rawdogging on airplanes. Me: ............what!?! 16yo: Yeah, they just sit there without any devices. It's crazy! Me: Not as crazy as what I thought you just said to me. 😂
It never hurts to be smart like Pete. Or Jasmine Crockett. AOC. The Democrats would win a quiz show versus Republicans any goddamn day of the week.
I really want this to be true. 😂

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.
Effective Corporate Tax Rates 1950: 50% 2025: 13% Top Marginal Tax Rates 1950: 91% 2025: 37% If you’re curious as to why the rich have so much and you have so little, these are good places to start.
It's my understanding that the battery could ignite because it's underwater. (Fish definitely don't deserve that fate.)
He’s so good at this.

We all contract bovine tuberculosis, and it mutates into strains that are resistant to all known antibiotics? @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social
Omg. This makes so much sense.
Autism isn’t an epidemic. It's not a disease. It’s a natural variation in how people think…which, frankly, is a relief in a world where most people don't think at all.
For Superman Day 2025, I give you The Superman Creed of 1942: "I shall fight the enemies-from-within until they are all smashed, until the battle against oppression is won and until kindness and humanity again rule the world!"
We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.
Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.
Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.
While the United States has plenty of real problems to deal with, Trump is ignoring them to manufacture fake emergencies. Why? He wants more power — and in the process, he’s subjecting millions to real harm. America’s actual national emergency is Donald J. Trump.
Everyone should watch this. Then share it with anyone who thinks these tariffs are a good idea and won’t crush small businesses. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DIDAtyB...
I want my government to be boring and competent enough so that I don’t have to think about it every goddamn minute.
Sometimes in this fast-moving and complex modern world, it’s hard to know what’s right and what’s wrong. But here’s a handy rule of thumb: If you are ever on one side of an issue, and Sesame Street is on the other, YOU’RE the bad guy.
I just want to drop my body off at the gym while my brain and I go to the bookstore for a coffee, is that too much to ask?
Hi from DuPage county Aurora! We unseated Trump-loving Irvin as mayor!!!
Irvin got what was coming to him! Congratulations to John Laesch, Aurora's new mayor! Local elections matter! chicago.suntimes.com/elections/20...
I did my part. Irvin has got to go!
Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?
anyway calling these "war plans" when they were actually plans to blow up an apartment building full of civilians because the girlfriend of a guy we don't like lived there sounds more like "terrorism plans" or perhaps even more accurately "terrorism factory creation plans"
Tired of living within a system that requires endless decisions while offering few real choices.
🚨THIS IS AMAZING: An incredible crowd showed up to see Rep. AOC in Greeley, Colorado where Republican Gabe Evans is hiding from his constituents. MAGA doesn't believe this is happening. Make sure everyone sees this.
Extremely cathartic.👇
These actions do not combat antisemitism. This is MAGA/Republicans weaponizing antisemitism AND Islamophobia to silence free speech and tear down the laws governing immigration.
The richest man in the world took over $5K out of this guy's bank account, claiming he was dead. The richest man in the world said he was saving money. He was not dead.
What a wonderful idea…👇 Let’s. Do. This. ✨
It's terrifying how many people are completely oblivious to what's happening.
I took over operations of our small family business when my dad passed away. We have been selling on Amazon for 15 years. They've spent the last 5 removing our listings and won't even tell us why. Amazon kills small businesses. ring-guard.com
💚 My 13 year old daughter just called you her hero!
I just watched this with no audio and I have to laugh. He rages like an ax murderer who can’t find his ax and is mad at Mom because she doesn’t know where it is either.
What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?
Hey guys I know it's really hard to be conscious of your health right now, so please remember that after every hour muttering “wtf” to yourself while scrolling on your phone you should stand up and banshee scream for at least 5 minutes to stretch out your lower back

We’re in this mess in large part bc the average American is uninformed about fundamentals of civics, history, basic biology, economics, etc, and media and the internet are not meeting the moment. Is anyone organizing teach-ins or similar for the general public, whether irl or online?
💔💔🇺🇦
Is it a Kirby? Mine is 19 years old, and I just had it service for the first time last year, after my son vacuumed up a bunch of nuts and bolts.
And Illinois!
Illinois Governor JB Pritzker is definitely one of the good ones. Today he HAMMERED Trump with a detailed list of all the prices that are going up because of Trump's trade wars. Make sure everyone sees this.
If you’ve already started calling it the Gulf of America instead of the Gulf of Mexico, you should have no trouble with someone’s preferred name and pronouns.
