If you're no longer going to honor a traitorous enslaver, why on earth would you honor his HORSE. Y'all are hilarious with your fake outrage.

While we’re at it, where the fuck is @NorfolkVA and your police to direct traffic around this?

From the party that brought you such classics as:

"You can't tell our kids to eat healthier"
"You can't tell us to wear masks"
"You can't advise us to get vaccines"

comes a new hit:

"Slavery included professional development."

Elon’s story is an inspiring reminder that as long as your dad owns an apartheid emerald mine, you too can become the biggest loser on earth

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Your party is promoting:
- book banning
- limiting speech in classrooms
- silencing people in the boardroom
- fining librarians

But please tell us more about your version of “freedom of speech.”

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

In the same week that Republicans are passing a bill to cut funding to programs that root out unemployment fraud, one of their members gets arrested on federal charges for... unemployment fraud.

They really know how to protect their own!

Picture this. An investor from the U.S. buys an abandoned building in Puerto Rico for $108k. Holds it for 7 years untouched and lists it for $360k.

In the meantime, locals illegally enter and use it to cook for ppl after the hurricane.

The “squatters” get to keep the building.

The first day of our strategic planning session will be a deep dive into why we ignored our last strategic plan.

Call me old school but if "staying in my silo" means I won't entertain people who sexually abuse women, praise Nazis, ridicule Jews, ban Muslims, insult Africans, call Mexicans rapists, commit insurrection, steal classified docs, & commit 34 counts of fraud—I'll stay in my silo.

[Rep. Ilhan Omar @Ilhan]

Five states, including my home state of Minnesota, have now addressed child hunger in their states by passing free and universal school meals for all, and over a dozen others support similar policies.

It’s time to listen to the demands of our constituents and at long last make school meals free and universal for all kids.

It's funny to watch people in the replies shouting "It's because they went woke!" or "It's because the new Mandalorian season sucked!" and you drill down into the article and see it's mostly because they lost the rights to show professional cricket league games in India.

“bookstores need to card people to make sure they’re 18” + “booktok is rotting teenage girls’ brains by telling them to read Bad Books” would always be wildly terrible takes but especially when we’re in the middle of very real book banning and censorship in libraries

[JDRandom - RandomWhiteGuy @TheReelRandom]

The United States is about to see what forty years of undermining the public education system leads to.

Teachers are leaving in droves, and there are very few coming out of colleges to replace them.

When you ignore problems and the experts who try to fix them, they get worse.

[Imani Gandy is at BlueSky Now @AngryBlackLady]

I wish everyone could go back to how they felt that day in November 2016 and then stop fucking around and just vote for Joe Biden. Go back and remember what it was like to wake up every day for four years with tightness in your chest.

Go read your tweets from November 2016.

Another publishing thing that is always worth talking about is how when a book fails commercially it is universally framed as the author’s failure and hung on them and their career/future and pretty much never framed as the publisher failed to do their job marketing the book.
