Wow. This focus group on the MAGA cult.

Spoiler alert: these folks aren’t MAGA anymore.

Tori Hurst: "They made me watch a documentary on January 6th, and I didn't even know what happened on January 6th prior to the PBS documentary. And I looked at him, and I said, 'Scott, did that really happen?' And he was like, 'Where have you been?’”

Fascinating.

SERIOUS QUESTION: Now if capitalism is so great, why do corporations need tax breaks, subsidies, exemptions, grants, bailouts, legal protections, and trade barriers to survive ?? And when ordinary people ask for help, why is it suddenly called socialism ??

@marcorasi1960 The old Hibernia Bank building. Nice capture

Is a "framework for peace" with Iran like a "concept of a plan" for healthcare?

@bradley965army @JoJoFromJerz Project much?

Israel killed every single child in this photo in South Lebanon within less than 30 days.

They were not combatants.

They were children.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

Maybe it’s me, maybe I’m old fashioned, but maybe just maybe, bragging about kicking people off food stamps while telling them to pay for a billion dollar ballroom at the same time is a losing electoral strategy.

But what do I know.

[a3_for_now @now_a3]

Wtf

[sarah @sahouraxo]

BREAKING.

Israel is blowing up entire civilian homes in Naqoura, South Lebanon right now.

Civilian homes.

No military target.

No justification.

Just pure terror and destruction.

This is a war crime in broad daylight.

And the world watches in silence.

An hour after announcing his resignation, the US Army Chief of Staff says: "A madman is about to lead the great US military to ruin."

.@JamesTalarico: In scripture, Jesus befriended people that others called sinners. The only people in the Bible that Jesus condemned were religious leaders who used religion to hurt others.

Being a Christian is about loving thy neighbor, not bullying LGBTQ people, chasing pregnant women across state lines, harassing librarians, silencing teachers, and defunding our schools.

I refuse to let Christian nationalists twist a religion of love to justify their hate.

BREAKING NEWS: Rowan Atkinson, a legendary icon of comedy, television, and cinema, has left even the world’s richest and most powerful figures stunned—not just with his words, but with decisive action.
At a glamorous red-carpet gala in Los Angeles on December 20, attended by film moguls, tech billionaires, and Hollywood’s most elite stars, Rowan Atkinson took the stage to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award. But instead of offering a conventional acceptance speech, he chose a moment of truth—direct, fearless, and deeply human.
He did not thank the Academy. He did not reminisce about Mr. Bean, Blackadder, or decades of global laughter. Instead, Atkinson looked straight into the audience of wealth and influence and declared:
“We sit here surrounded by diamonds and artistic glory while the world outside is falling apart. If your voice can move millions and you choose not to use it for those who have no voice, then you are not creating change—you are creating noise.”
The room fell into complete silence. Film executives and invited guests sat motionless, struck by the weight of his words. He continued, unwavering:
“If you have more than you need, it no longer belongs only to you. Your responsibility is to lift up those who are still beneath you.”
And he did not stop at words.
That very night, Atkinson announced that all profits from his archived works and future creative projects—estimated at 160 million USD—will be donated to fund children’s health initiatives, climate action programs, and arts education for underprivileged youth.
His message was unmistakable:
“Legacy is not built on what you earn. It is built on what you give.”
In an era when celebrities are often dismissed as hollow symbols, Rowan Atkinson delivered a powerful reminder to the world:
true impact is not created by applause, but by easing the suffering of others.

@elonmusk Literally not. Do you even have any critical thinking cells left?

Since the Winter Olympics is underway, this is the perfect time to post Surya Bonaly doing her back flip on ice. Judges used to underscore her and I loved that she did the backflip in her last performance before retiring as a big FU to the establishment.

If Congress doesn’t act, the last nuclear arms control treaty between the U.S. and Russia will expire. It would pointlessly wipe out decades of diplomacy, and could spark another arms race that makes the world less safe. This piece is worth the read. https://t.co/NPtKyjYRml
