Another country will fund that shit and, when it works on something that's killing us indiscriminately, we'll want to buy it. Imagine the retaliatory tariffs that'll be imposed. Now do that again for every other make-it-ourselves-but-don't-fund-it area in which cuts are being made. We are INSANE.

IRL, Nadine is played by Tulsi Gabbard. @stephenking.bsky.social
There was a really bad accident on St Mary and Magazine. It looked like a scene from a movie. Like if you parked between Union, Ramen and Half Moon good chance your car is fucked up.
Wow. That rules applying to fire alarm monitoring subscriptions are treated the exact same way as rules that applying to ill-advised non-safety-related subscriptions is absurd. Still it's unfortunate the 8th was prevented procedurally from reaching the merits.
*screenshots to relatives with same affliction*
Case name, at least, please.
Sorry if I seem insensitive, btw - I was just hoping to make you laugh since there's nothing really I can do to make anything better.
Well she should get you a job then. Shit, Mom.
The new Escape from New York will suck.
In the before times, we were so taken with the novelty & convenience of shopping from our desks, we blindly punked our future selves. Amazon was just an online bookstore. Actual storefronts were still plentiful. But despite Amazon, some places still have plenty of small retail stores. We could too.
Dear Ms Bowers, We are supposed to be celebrating the America described so beautifully by Langston Hughes in his poem, "Let America be America Again." And, we could still create that America. For all of us. But, not if we give up when we fall. So, stand up straight. poets.org/poem/let-ame...
Oh good, because everyone is surely going to coalesce under the recently-ousted Front Man for the VIPs.
Nor in New Orleans. Even the way we say it, it ends in a "t."
I'm guessing whoever it was, they were probably Unitarian. 😊
trick rick ick
Good
Leave my pitchfork at home?! Ugh! Fine.
That's massively fucked up.
May the mountain of tasks before you fuel your inner fire to accomplish all your goals. And, how sweet it will be next month when you get to say, "yep, I nailed all that." You will be so proud! 💛
Because MSM is clicks > substance.
Me too. Such a special place.
ISL! I love their end-of-the-year international parade. ♥️💛💚💙
It’s a fun demonstration of what it would look like if you gave an epic bacon narwhal Redditor 50 billion dollars
Per #CitizensUnited, Corporations, even foreign corporations, can spend unlimited dollars on advertisements that shape the political landscape of the U.S. B/c $ = political speech. Actual human Visa holders on US campuses can't attend protests now. B/c political speech can get fucked. How????
Well here's a news article that should change that. Denmark just hired Diaper Dave - too gross a human being for even Louisiana's GOP voters (and they have a ridiculously high tolerance for wicked conduct) - to lobby for Trump to please be nice. It's freaking vile. www.nola.com/news/politic...
I went to a graduation this week, and a very talented graduating senior sang the Star Spangled Banner. It was the 1st time I heard it as asking a direct, non-rhetorical question. And, I really don't know the answer. Does it yet wave over a free & brave nation? Who are we now? Are we free? Brave?
I really don't care, do you?
What is that?
Obama 2028. Because the Constitution no longer matters.
The gerrymandering problem is a huge issue for our presence in the House
My favorite babies have trunks too, but much smaller ones! 💚 @segaru.bsky.social
He was one of my favorites, too! I loved how true he was to his values, including for his people to be free, prosperous, and ecologically kind. One day I will travel to Uruguay to see his legacy in person.
Not many people know this, but the entire Class of '86 disappeared immediately after graduating.
Ok, but I'm still going to assume it was a Tesla until credible sources report it was actually a Cybertruck.
The future is Betamax
Pete Buttigieg suggested he would “assess” a 2028 presidential run. While visiting Iowa, he said in a live interview that he'd consider “what I bring to the table.”
Your repost about Mujica's death was obtuse and shitty. Trump will never be a fragment of the person that Mujica was.
Wow! I had no idea. We'll do that, and thank you!
Well, may I distract you ever so briefly with a sincere question, then? Does anyone still take photographs using film cameras, develop using darkrooms, etc.? My husband inherited some pre-digital camera stuff - nice for its era. We don't know what to do w/ it. You think an art school might want?
Too bad they're not flying into Newark.
If it's got randomly capitalized words and cites no source, it is ALWAYS false. How tf could you still be alive without knowing that?
He'll do "a heck of a job" or worse.
Seriously, that doesn't even make sense. So where's the source for this?
Where the f*** is the link to a verifiable news outlet? Nothing is actually true if the only source for that info is a meme on social media. So, stop giving them credence on demand, and instead start demanding sources. This site is as replete with lies and unintentional falsehoods as any other.

I think they denied this, but I don't care who's CEO of Tesla. I DO care who's CEO of SpaceX, but SpaceX hasn't said anything about their feral, naked emperor, so they must like him fine all crazy and repulsive like this
Remember, those who claim to be enraged that an almost imperceptible amount of federal dollars goes to NPR and PBS are currently before the Supreme Court demanding that your taxpayer money be spent to fund a Christian school in Oklahoma that definitionally trafficks in propaganda
Jesus ...
Not quite. Under 8 USC 1325, illegal entry and attempted illegal entry into the US is a misdemeanor crime punishable by up to 6 months in prison. To be convicted under section 1325, a federal trial in which the accused receives due process, no matter the DHS's allegations, is required.
Entitled & gross
Happy World Tapir Day, y'all!
If I have to read that same freaking cover letter again and again from each applicant! I'd strongly prefer a haiku at this point. Blades spin 'round my skills Now Ticonderoga sharp I'm your number 2 Hired!
It's so obvious. Every accusation against us is an admission of his own wrongdoing. So, was his 47ship bought by foreign donators to a GOP PAC? Yes, clearly.
Wasn't that basically a requirement for all of this administration's cabinet rewardees?
I was just remembering a different GOP that had a problem with John Kerry because, they said, he flip-flopped. And that's evidently really bad, unless it's done at such a rapid pace in every conceivable arena that it gives the entire globe US-policy whiplash, in which case it's rah rah rah?
They're hoping to profit off the next insider-trading tweet?
Every time I pass my Google device, I say something stupid to disrupt the algorithm.
What a pot hole.
This is insane. This cannot stand. The EEOC has no valid legal or factual basis to ask for this type of info from Barnard profs!
The US Constitution guarantees due process. Donald Trump is eroding it in real time – we must fight back to restore the balance of power. Today, I’m announcing a series of measures against El Salvador for aiding his unconstitutional deportation scheme.
Ugh!
Same. We are lucky.
I completely agree with Liz Cheney here. DNC should stop treating supporters like an ATM and start treating us like allies in the fight against fascism. She suggests 7 real-life, very workable solutions to the problem. Her letter is well worth a read.
Thank you for caring @repfields.bsky.social! I'm so glad you're back. And I hope you get answers about those SU students.
So proud of my alma mater for having one of the 180 brave University president's to sign! #uw #udub #gohuskies #StandUp www.aacu.org/newsroom/a-c...
Musk clone Hilton will run on a platform of "California is the worst run state in the union," which is why he should be exiled to Louisiana or Mississippi for a real education in deeply dysfunctional US states.
US out of El Salvador, again!
I'm proud of your school, Sir.
Do you think they realize that blaming their fascism on the pretense that Jewish students need special protection from hate speech more than ALL students need protection from impingement on their constitutional rights is likely to have the opposite effect on antisemitism than that supposedly sought?
Scalia was stubborn and conservative, but he wasn't a follower and he wasn't an idiot.
Assuming they APPLY stare decisis?* Jack shit. *They will definitely apply stare decisis. No hopes should be banked on the same sitting Justices invalidating their prior ruling on presidential immunity when POTUS 45 paid it for, unfair and square. Watch.
You'd think, given all the BS we're facing, they'd at least let #Netflix show us the rest of MF'ing #yellowjackets or something.
You need to get a LOT louder, Sir. We can't hear you one state over, in New Orleans, LA, at all. I found this post only by searching to see where you went.
Oh, is it locker room talk, then?
Now do Citizens United
IF he is 6'3" & IF he is also 224 lbs... THEN he clearly has NO muscles, NO brain, and NO spine. Which is all completely believable and consistent with what we've seen of him.
I matched with the right lane of Gravier that you've blocked and prevented the public from using for a solid year plus, except of course when you opened it briefly for Super Bowl tourists. Your lengthy, unapologetic appropriation of public property is deplorable. May your grads suck less than U.
It can't be changed from without and still be ours; whether it's fucked or saved by others, the end result won't be because of us. And I don't think we are truly willing, on either side of the great dividing line, to become a country that doesn't rule itself, no matter the cost.
But we aren't going to change because the electoral college will persist as will the constitutionality of politically gerrymandered districts and until those two things change, we will not have anything approaching fairness.
To get us to think we might really need all these MFing guns soon?
Could it even NOT be true at this point? Seriously.
Kaching!
So what are you doing about it besides telling us how fucked we are? Shit, dude.
A question to others who are struggling with all of this - When your acquaintances say something like "Hi, how're you doing?" now, do you still respond with something like "OK, how about you?" It feels so weird, but I think the truth would be even more socially awkward. Ugh.
All great questions.
He is the neediest MF ever. Nobody needs as much as him, and this is just dumb blathering response is just another example of that. I mean, seriously, who has ever needed so many words to say nothing?
I am stunned she's still a freshman - she's is amazing!
It's hard to want so hard for them both to succeed here.
You make me so proud, Senator.
Well, we COULD create a well-regulated militia to meet that threat. After all, they kept insisting we'd need all these guns for just such a thing one day.
Is it well-regulated militia o'clock yet in the USA?
I early-voted this a.m. in #nola #Louisiana to get it done before the storms get here. "No" to all.
Such a captivating film! My only regret, now that I've seen it, is not being able to watch it for the first time, again.
As a New Orleanian, I find it amazingly easy to not shop at Target. All 3 of our "local" Target stores were built in ugly, white-flight suburbs. There's no Target in actual New Orleans. Yuck.
Still trying to squelch their going low by going high, I presume.
Exactly.
