I’m glad Kristi Noem is getting hate for killing a dog, as she should be, and I want to make sure folks know she’s terrible for lots of other reasons too

-Cutting lunch programs for low income kids
-Making SD hostile to trans people
-Banning abortion
-Racism

And much more. She’s vile.

Howard Stern of SiriusXM snags a surprise interview with President Biden, following reports of Biden's refusal so far to give The NYT a sit-down interview (Martin Pengelly/The Guardian)

Now we see why the NY trial for Trump is so important.

And why the Florida case still matters.

They concern Trump’s actions before and after his presidential term, respectively.

They may be all that’s left after the Supreme Court rules in favor of unaccountable dictatorship.

IT'S FRIDAY! YAAAAAAAAY!

My forty-seven funky friends & I hope your weekend is as fabulous, fantastic & full of fun as is feasible.

I'm having trouble recovering a video I just saw posted where a medical leader (was it maybe Maria Van Kerkhove?) said this is the fifth year of the pandemic. Must have been recent, based on the phrase.

After having been assertively and oppressively told "the pandemic is over" by multiple medical (etc.) officials lately, I feel the need to grab that digestible "TikTok-sized" video, as their grossly negligent ignorance suggests that they have lost the capacity to read.

Anyone got that link handy?
(or boost!)

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis may have just set himself up for a First Amendment fight from hell.

DeSantis says Satanism is ‘not real’ and ‘not qualifying’ for new Florida school chaplain program

Standardized tests
no longer feature analogies
but for what it’s worth
please note that
eclipse is to
“why do my eyes hurt?”
as
pandemic is to
“why am I always sick?”

When he asks
why I’m wearing a mask
I tell him it’s because
if there is someone here
wearing a mask
I don’t want
them to feel alone
and when he points out
that I’m currently
the only one masked
I look at him and say
yes, but that could change

I have mixed feelings about this article. One the one hand, I think it is important that voters see and understand Trump’s depravity. On the other hand, I don’t like amplifying his views. I think @washingtonpost found a middle ground with its facts checks. (Gift article). Still…I’m torn.

@breadandcircuses @chu Plastics are one of the cornerstones of the growth of the oil refining business.
The only way to rid the world of this menace is to make plastics more expensive to use than any of the more ecological alternatives.
If plastics were sold at the full life cycle cost to society, we would not use them in such mass quantities.
