@HIBlSCUS Yup, because I used telehealth to get my prescription I got denied at multiple pharmacies and had to start the process all over again

@atrupar I thought the fraud was that ACA subsidies were going to people who didn't deserve it and were then milking the American health system for all it's worth, leading to longer wait times for US citizens?

@itgirluta Person who hasn't read a novel since high school and gets all their news from TikTok: "This writing is clearly AI. I can tell from the use of punctuation like em-dashes and the fact that listed examples are given in threes."

[Caitlin Coakley @CommuniCaitVA]

This is such a perfect example of the difference between Dems and the GOP: Mainstream Dems rush to condemn bad behavior from the far left while mainstream Rs embrace MAGA. Yet Dem candidates will still be tarred with the worst behavior from the fringe.

Statement from the @CASenateDems and @calgbt on the harassment of Senator Scott Wiener.

@AnthonyGtakes @krystalball How did a book club shoot a cop? Did they all hold the gun and pull the trigger together? Or is guilt by association suddenly punishable by decades in prison?

I was completely ambivalent about this movie but seeing as how it's making all the worst men on the internet mad, I will be there Friday night with a large bucket of popcorn.

Watching female critics have to defend Supergirl and female heroes in 2026 is wild.

Fellas, it’s not “gayyyy” to like Supergirl (and it’s okay if you are 🫶🏻, it’s not an insult 😘). What’s actually insecure is putting down female-led stories. Take a woman to see Supergirl… I promise your bros will still be your bros. 🥱🥱🥱 unoriginal comments… Get more creative.

@Voidsspace Yup. 50-50 custody was the best thing to happen because now my kids' dad is legally required to be responsible for them half the time.

@zapatas_mom Reading X, you'd think every man works 12+ hours a day.

@Julieta6264401 @drterrysimpson Even that paper says that the trend is correlational and that more study is needed to determine any more than that.

[Caitlin Coakley @CommuniCaitVA]

Police violence is far too normalized.

Tras el asesinato policial de un bebé por unos pañales, hubo protestas en las puertas del Walmart y un ejército de policías estadounidenses gaseó a los manifestantes con gas lacrimógeno.

El pais de la libertad, donde matan a tiros a los bebés porque su madre pobre robó un pañal.

@mariaolime @GeoRebekah @cardon_brian @grok The article link is right there.

@garygreer1969 @iky_fwjett She went to work for a nonprofit but picked up a bartending gig to help pay the bills.

@USAttyEssayli That's paying someone to REGISTER to vote, not to vote.

[Caitlin Coakley @CommuniCaitVA]

@California_Derp @SovernNation Let's say people are just collecting unused mail ballots and giving them to randos to fill out. The signatures are still verified and need to match the signature the voter provided when registering. So... how would that work?

[Caitlin Coakley @CommuniCaitVA]

Look, I like Platner's politics. But I really dislike the way that white leftists spent 2016 and 2024 disavowing "identity politics" but now keep hyping up Platner's working-class identity as an electoral advantage and excuse for past behavior.

[Ken Klippenstein @kenklippenstein]

Maine voter asked about Platner: "If we want folks that are representing us from the working class, they're not necessarily going to have a groomed and perfect political record"

[Caitlin Coakley @CommuniCaitVA]

@QueenMab87 Those same white working class men will howl about how much they hate "identity politics"

[Caitlin Coakley @CommuniCaitVA]

@KeithWoodsYT And the people who extoll this mindset are never supportive of expanding access to resources (like long term care) to support the person with a disability or the parents.

[Caitlin Coakley @CommuniCaitVA]

@silverindow Those people are worse. I can't count the number of times I've turned into a parking spot and almost been hit head-on by some moron flying through from the other lane. If the lot is mostly empty, fine, but when it's crowded and people can't see you pulling through, don't do it.

@LauraRbnsn It stuck out to me that while the entire friend group thought Nikki was going through a mental health crisis, Ian told Bear that he thought Bear was taking advantage of Nikki while Sarah told Bear that Nikki was taking advantage of him. Sarah was a terrible friend.
