The UK and France just proved that getting out and actually voting makes a difference. Don’t let anyone ever tell you differently.

Casablanca was filmed as WWII raged and the 🇨🇵 singers in the Rick's bar scene were actually French refugees. Their emotions were very real as they belted out La Marseillaise to drown out the German officers singing Deutschland Uber Alles.

some states are unsafe for trans people to travel through, some states are unsafe for pregnant people to travel through, some states are unsafe for gay people to travel through, we’re developing this horrific patchwork of laws as fundamental rights are upended nationally

How do they do that? Cats are perfectly capable of running quietly when they want, so obviously they choose to grow hooves for those occasions. I call it the "Pussy Express."😁

The opting out is especially wild Like, Republican governors are being actively presented with money to feed kids and affirmatively saying 'I would like children to starve actually' (Also, if I'm a Dem campaigner, I'm making some ads and placing some op eds about this immediately)

by choosing anyone other than harris to replace biden should he decide to step aside, the party would be revealing they very cynically chose her as veep for optics without believing she could actually be president.

It's also wildly inaccurate. Plenty of the base of white christian nationalism is in wealthy suburbs and, yes, cities too. Stop buying this "barefoot hicks" b.s. and realize the fascists are down the street shopping at whole foods.

Remember Aesop's fable about the frogs who wanted a king? They got a log as king, and were fine, but it was boring. So they asked for an active king, and they got a stork, and were eaten.

I like the coconut tree memes as much as everyone else but I do think we should all be on the same page about Harris's quote actually making sense when you realize she was telling a story about her mom and illustrating a point about education.

Trump has never had a speech impediment, and if you read a transcript of his speeches, they make very little sense, if any. It is apparently elitist to point this out, because "his supporters know what he's saying." When you read what he says, this is basically advancing Trump as telepath.

The discourse about replacing Biden has gotten rancid. Might I suggest we all find unity in our one true love, hating cyber trucks and laughing at their owners?

Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

Three things that are true: 1) I did not support Biden in the 2020 primary 2) I thought Biden looked like a reanimated corpse at the debate 3) I have every confidence that he is fully capable of being President, and the New York Times and other outlets are fucking him to goose readership
