  • they don’t even bother anymore

    The GOP and the current administration aren’t even pretending they’re not racist assholes and journalism seems more than happy pretend there’s no racism anywhere, no sir. You never said a lie! Someone who says bad things happen, like, say, a plane crash, because of DEI, is saying that straight white males are better than anyone…

  • H.R. 722

    Is a national abortion ban. Everyone who’s not an idiot knew such a bill would be introduced. And everyone who’s all in for TFG said, with a straight face because they’ve had decades of practice telling lies, that no, it should be left up to the states.

This “plan” was made public during the observation of the the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. Is…

  • Swasticar

    This is the PERFECT name for the Tesla. Kudos to the wordsmith who tossed this into the socials. Someone needs to make a “Bought before We Knew” bumpersticker for all the Tesla owners who bought their cars before the owner of the company threw Nazi salutes to the entire fucking world.

  • Yes, Of Course

    NPR is reporting new allegations that Exxon-Mobile is behind an attempt to hack Climate Activists in order to discredit them. Read about it here How does anyone who works in the fossil fuels industry live with knowing that they are condemning the world to unrecoverable disaster? Fuck these guys.

  • I Read A Book

    There’s this book, a Romantasy (Romance + Fantasy) that is a huge seller and caught the attention of book banners who don’t want anyone to read a book they don’t like where “don’t like” means anything about experience as brown or LGBTQ+ because we must protect their white kids from developing empathy. Heaven forfend, what…
