Yeah. COVID. It’s day 15. I’ve been pumping out gunk since day 1. This afternoon I developed a headache and my eyes feel puffy and feel “wrong”. I feel horrible. DO NOT GET COVID. WEAR A MASK.

Congress can — and we should — use these final weeks of 2022 to protect DACA recipients by giving them a pathway to citizenship.

Dreamers are just as American as any of us. Thank you to MSNBC’s Alicia Menendez for talking with me about the progress these young Americans deserve.

Here is a non-paywalled article about the reported #fusion breakthrough. Didn’t realize this happened in #California at Lawrence Livermore!

“The test involved bombarding a pellet of hydrogen plasma with the world’s largest laser to trigger a nuclear fusion reaction, the same process which takes place in the sun.

Researchers were able to produce 2.5 megajoules of energy, 120 per cent of the 2.1 megajoules used to power the experiment.”

But yeah, lets ban teaching about America's history of racism—which by the way is exactly what MAGA Republicans in Kansas are trying to do.

We're the first UK media outfit, that we can see, to take the step of setting up a Mastodon server (instance) to provide content.

I think that's worth a little love ♥️

Elon Musk Calls For Fauci's Prosecution, Attacks Twitter’s Ex-Safety Head - The billionaire has made it easier to spread COVID-19 misinformation on Twitter since taking over and has parroted right-wing conspiracy theorists. #twitter #huffpost

Pro-tip: Instead of a gift card buy them something from the same store but you know they'll hate. Include a gift receipt. Same result but it feels like you tried.

Say it with me: To control inflation, we must take aim at corporate profits, not working people.

If you've been here over a month and you're STILL going on about the dumpster fire...

Have you ever met someone who just irritates you because they can't stop talking about their ex because they haven't gotten over them yet?

And you don't want to be rude because you get that change can be hard, so you just smile and quietly hope to yourself that they can let go soon and move on with their lives?

It's kinda like that.

A literalist takes things literally.

A kleptomaniac takes things, literally.

Do you understand sampling bias? Please boost after voting so the poll can have better statistics

The introduction of the corduroy pillow made head lines all over the world.

Adam Schiff to CBS this morning on the Jan 6th Cmte meeting today:
"Several of us that were charged with making the recommendation about referrals are going to be making that recommendation to the full committee today."
And Schiff said members are "in common agreement" on criminal referrals.

Little reminder:
Jan 6th Cmte will meet today to figure out which criminal referrals they're going to make to DOJ
And to prep their public presentation of the final report
Word is the report will be presented on Wed, 12/21
Merry Christmas, kids! 🎅

*** Musk goes even more deeply evil with call to
"Prosecute Fauci" - businesses and governments should cease doing business with his firms ***

In a tweet this morning mocking pronouns, Musk said "My pronouns are Prosecute/Fauci".

Fauci is a hero. Musk is a POS. Any firm that continues to do business with any of Musk's businesses should be ostracized. The U.S. government should move immediately to end contractual work with any and all Musk-controlled firms including SpaceX as quickly as practicable. Depending on Musk going forward is a risk to national security.
