In other news, America's billionaires could give everybody in the country a $3,000 stimulus check and still be richer than they were before the pandemic.

It's past time for a wealth tax.

Looking forward to opposing the new regime because they’re wrong on policy, not because they’re wrong on policy, dangerous, brazenly corrupt, and gratuitously cruel.

I could watch this all day.

On this #ElectionDay, it is important to stress that politics is another word for power. To not do politics is to not do power. And what happens when we don’t do power? Fascism happens. Bigotry happens. Injustice happens. To engage in politics is to engage our power. 1/6

“Stay angry, little Meg,” Mrs Whatsit whispered. “You will need all your anger now.”

Amy Coney Barrett, whose own family should be quarantining right now, is still meeting with Senators as they violate their own quarantine guidelines.

For a judge, that’s pretty bad judgment.

[E.A. Gibes @eagibes]

@TaylorStreet312 @tomgibes yeah. it's heartbreaking.

Here's a cat God to take your mind off of the rest of Twitter for 15 seconds.

[Amanda @amandahys7]

Took a pic of the cat lookin out the window and accidentally turned him into some sort of god.

There would have been a rally in Green Bay today

You know, the quarantine was a lot easier when we were all in it together instead of constantly driving past packed restaurants and feeling like the Ghost of Christmas Present is showing me what a chill party everybody is having without me.

[Linda Tirado @KillerMartinis]

No, when police shot my gear that was property damage. I am currently shopping for another camera.

When they shot out my eye I went blind. Turns out one cannot merely call the eye store.

Things are things, people are not things.

[Anne Helen Petersen @annehelen]

These campus plans! They are so nonsensical! They have no logic. There are giant plot holes. They are like the screenplay to THE ROOM only we're talking about thousands of people's lives

I think some people really take for granted for much work it is for educators to set up meaningful, engaging lessons for their students over zoom. There's a bizarre narrative that online teaching is easier for educators, but I don't know a single teacher who thinks that's true.
