It really sucks that the Biden administration is doing so many good things that differentiate themselves from the fascist GOP and yet on two issues–Immigration and 🇮🇱/🇵🇸–they're indistinguishable and may be their downfall.
This is legit huge for so many people

The rule could go into effect sometime next year, CFPB Director Rohit Chopra told ABC News in an exclusive interview ahead of the policy announcement.

Not getting "Manga" is embarrassing. For those not getting the word, not for the New York Times, who have far more legitimate things to be embarrassed about.
It's Trump. It could've been "OOGA BOOGA BOOGA" and it would still be credible and plausible from the 34x guilty conman.
Also, there needs to be activist and grassroots pressure. Because as you pointed out, left to their own devices, dems are going to line their own pockets.
There need to be other mechanisms. In NY state, we have fusion voting, which gave us the Working Families Party. If you compare the state when they were born in 1998 to where we are now in 2024, I would say it's a lot better.
Thank you. It was founded by Jean Marie Le Pen, and that's all that I need to know.
Please clue me, a dumb, ignorant American, in: which ones are the fascists? Which ones are the leftists?

I wish Prince would've let Weird Al make parodies of his songs, though. To think what we could've had, I mean: a parody of "When Doves Cry" called "When Pigs Fly"! That would have ruled!

www.nytimes.comI read this article in the @nytimes.com about how the far-right Republicans want to have revenge prosecutions against dems in retaliation for Trump's 34 guilty convictions. The most shocking thing? No both-sides-ism. The times called spades spades.
I wonder what this account thinks about the eight genders in the Talmud…
moderation at scale is impossible to do well. If you don't believe me, just ask @mmasnick.bsky.social, because that's his impossibility theorem.
I think Talib Kweli has this mantra: "To those who are privileged, equality looks like oppression."

this is the funniest thing happening on the internet today:
people claiming the newly elected president of Mexico isn’t really Jewish because she thanked Jesus
(she thanked Jesús, her husband)
Also, I mean, why do cishet people *need* a flag? If you're cishet, you're the "default"! Every day is cishet day. Every month is cishet month. There's no *need* for a cishet flag!

Taken from their families and sent to remote boarding schools, Native American children often faced sexual abuse by priests, brothers or sisters who ran the facilities.

deadline.com@juicysteak117.gay I just saw Backspot (2024), I think you would really like it. It's like Bring it On, but Canadian and gay. And when I say gay, I mean *gay*. I mean "gay" as in "gay is the default, so assume everyone is gay unless they say otherwise". It'll be made clear once you watch it.

What happened to Black Wall Street in Tulsa over a century ago was a pogrom against black people. And it wasn't the only one.

Hahaha what a douchebag
I wholly support this.
I propose we replace TFG (the former guy) with CFT (Convicted Felon Trump) from this moment forward!
Sure, when he gets convicted of 34 felony counts.
NY has a very good anti-SLAPP law, and I live here, so I’m good!
Update: I’ve heard quite a few people offer corrections, and all I can say is:
KEEP ‘EM COMING!!!
