Yessssss!

[The Sandman @Netflix_Sandman]

Yes, it’s true: The Sandman will return to Netflix

Says @neilhimself: “There are some astonishing stories waiting for Morpheus and the rest of them…Now it’s time to get back to work. There’s a family meal ahead, after all. And Lucifer is waiting for Morpheus to return to Hell”

This thread is pure horrorshow and happening in broad daylight

I called for a homelessness state of emergency almost THREE years ago.

When @SenBetsyJohnson and @ChristineDrazan had a chance to do something to help...they voted "no" or walked off the job.

Smaller class sizes, more career and technical courses, more mental health supports, and leaders who will help keep them safe from gun violence—this is what a group of high schoolers told me they needed.

And I am 100% with them.

@samandfuzzy ZOMG, I literally LOLed at that last panel 🤣🤣🤣

[John Legend @johnlegend]

When the president comes out as anti fascist and pro democracy and you feel attacked… Perhaps you need to do some introspection

[Sam Whitmore @samnotes]

@divajj Oh no, wishing you a speedy recovery!

[OR Health Authority @OHAOregon]

Many health experts initially thought immunity from #COVID19 vaccination or infection would slow down reinfections, but Omicron changed that.

The increased transmissibility of COVID-19 has caused some people to be infected more than once. https://t.co/arUd6mpz08

Proud Boys & Oath Keepers, like QAnon, are NOT the fringe in today's GOP.
Militia Members are STATE PARTY OFFICIALS in MI, AZ, OR, WY, FL, etc. providing "security."
This is how Hitler happened.
No, that is not hyperbole.
It's the GOAL.

It’s the filibuster or abortion rights.

It’s the filibuster or LGBTQ+ rights.

It’s the filibuster or voting rights.

The choice is clear. It’s time to end the filibuster.

[Sam Whitmore @samnotes]

And while I woke up with the pro-women/anti-women thought on my mind, I want to acknowledge that it's not a new idea. I heard it from George Carlin years ago and recently and had forgotten until this afternoon. I hope his idea takes root in more hearts and minds.

[Sam Whitmore @samnotes]

We need to reframe the dialogue about abortion access, because the anti-abortion crowd should not get to own the pro-life moniker.

It's pro-women or anti-women.

They shouldn't get to own pro-life, when they are actually pro-suffering, pro-death, anti-women.

[Sam Whitmore @samnotes]

And yes, I switched to non-gendered terms in that last tweet, because not all people who get abortions call themselves women.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

5 justices confirmed by a POTUS who lost the popular vote.
4 lied under oath.
2 credibly accused of sexual assault.
1’s seat literally stolen.
1’s spouse implicated in a coup attempt.

It is not enough to tell people to vote. We need a comprehensive plan to fix this court.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Do you want police officers barging into your bedroom to enforce contraception laws?

Do you want police officers handcuffing women and enforcing government-mandated pregnancies?

That’s what MAGA Republicans want. You can help stop that extremism by voting for Dems this Nov.

💯 this

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Here’s how Dems can + must do more than wait for an election.

Let’s start w/ why:

- 7 of the 9 justices were appointed by a party that hasn’t won a popular vote more than once in 30 years

- 1 of those seats was stolen

- Several lied to Congress to secure their appointment…
