I love visiting local breweries whenever I'm traveling, but Colorado beer is two years ahead of everybody!

@thknwco It's just a "cheesesteak" not a "cheesesteak hoagie". A hoagie is like cold cuts. Meatballs on it?- then it's a meatball sub. Get it right. Go Igles!

It doesn’t matter if Madison Cawthorn had sex with his cousin. It doesn’t matter if Will Smith slapped Chris Rock. It doesn’t matter if ticketmaster crashed from selling Taylor Swift tickets. We are on the precipice of catastrophe. Billions could perish. Wake up!

Run to get tickets now and see #MissionImpossible – Dead Reckoning Part One starring Tom Cruise. Only in theatres July 12.

This is a blue state with a government controlled by Democrats.

And everyone living here is being systematically poisoned because nobody in power is willing to seriously challenge the fossil fuel industry. #copolitics https://t.co/Crmeq7pYMd

@tgounley At one point this was going to be the new concert hall, still sad that didn't happen.

Public has trouble believing there could rly be so much scientific evidence showing repeated COVID infections are dangerous bc they assume our leaders would "do something". As you watch the sky turn orange today, reflect on how our leaders are "dealing with" the climate crisis

Someday, people will look back on this time and wonder why the fuck we didn't rise up against all these sociopathic billionaires and put them in prison or worse, and then get on with solving all the pressing problems we need to solve

@NBCNews I think I liked conservative codes of masculinity better when they were about pretending not to be scared of anything. Now the right wing is openly terrified of everything—cities, drag queens, people pulling into the wrong driveway

[Chase Woodruff @dcwoodruff]

Statewide upzoning gutted, air pollution rules gutted, assault weapons ban killed. Just your average 48 hours in Democratic-trifecta Colorado

[Climate Defiance @ClimateDefiance]

This is not unpleasant, this is unbearable. We need mass-turnout, nonviolent direct uprisings to resist this.

On 4/29 we will blockade the White House Correspondents Dinner.

The President will be there. And so will we.

@MarcosBalter Absolutely. Anything to make the relationship between composer and performer closer is excellent too.

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

I'd say fossil fuel execs have used the very magnitude of their crime - permanently destroying an as-yet-to-be-determined portion of Earth's habitability for all humanity, for short-term profit - to so far evade conviction. It's so audacious as to be almost impossible to believe

[nlr @nickrecuber]

@MarcosBalter I agree, however seeing the middle of the bar is quite nice.

[nlr @nickrecuber]

@MisterLies Great read! Listening to the album now. It's so nice. Thank you!

A lot of people make fun of Elon Musk's tunnels, but I'm impressed by it. You could give me 1,000 years and I'd never come up with a solution to traffic as dumb as "a single lane tunnel for only one kind of car that you still have to drive in".

Truly beyond the scope of my mind.

Rental and reservation policies of all kinds, right to repair, honesty in advertising, the list goes on and on.

So many voters who could be activated and won over by showing some tangible, life-impacting results in these areas.

[Evan Roth Smith @TheRealERS]

The lowest-hanging fruit in American politics is upgrading our consumer protections: flying, scam calls, hidden fees/surcharges, service outages, event ticketing, warrantees/guarantees, etc etc.

Just (hah) requires showing some backbone against corporate interests and $.

[NYTPitchbot @DougJBalloon]

Whether it's old Twitter management banning Nazis, or Elon Musk banning reporters, both sides have made some questionable banning choices.
