But they're Christians, so they have to hew to the 1800 year long tradition that life begins at…
[checks notes]… quickening.

Somewhere between 16 to 20 weeks.

The idea being that this was the moment the soul enters the fetus, so the fetus goes WTF and kicks out.
It was only in mid 19th century this whole life at conception crap started.

When I heard that #Scalise had multiple myeloma—which my dad died of—I wondered if he'd get stem cell treatment despite having voted & campaigned against stem cell therapy. My dad was too old for this option. Lucky for Scalise, hypocrisy is no barrier

Jake Sherman: STEVE SCALISE will be out of DC until Feb…getting a stem-cell transplant.

House GOP has 220-seat majority. Bill Johnson is out Jan. 21. After that, w Scalise out, GOP will have a bare bones 218-seat majority

Daughter was supposed to be coming to visit today, but an hour into her drive someone hydroplaned and broadsided her. No one was hurt, but she won’t be able to visit now. I’m just thankful she’s alright. The airbag on the passenger side deployed, and the fancy security features in her BME prevented her from pulling all the way off the interstate. Don’t know if that’s good or bad. No, her seats are not pink, but I think they’d look great if the y were. Also, the airbag looks like a giant penis.

The flagrantly demented rapist/traitor who your Republican relatives think should be the next President of the United States says we need to "get over" school shootings. rawstory.com/trump-responds-io

The Ohio lawmakers (all male) who wanted to have ectopic pregnancies "reimplanted" all need to have life-threatening tumors forcibly inserted into their persons, just for starters.

This story about Yale removing "Israeli" from "Israeli Couscous" is nearly identical to when Air Canada called them "Pearl Pasta" when they were clearly Israeli Couscous (which isn't even couscous)

This is the Freedom Fries of Israeli erasure.

If you must know
what I accomplished
in 2023
I will tell you:
I survived it.

If you ask me
what I hope to accomplish
in 2024
I will tell you:
to survive it.

Normalize virus reports like weather reports. We appreciate weather reports even if they bring us bad news, as they help us plan ahead and avoid accidents.

We need to stop being in denial about airborne viruses spreading. Sharing data helps us prepare and makes our lives easier.

Comer admits Trump sold out the American people & violated the Constitution when serving in the White House.

Sorry, no comparison—Joe Biden, like every other President but Trump, has scrupulously followed the Emoluments Clause.

We showed you our receipts. Where are yours?

@otownKim @customer228 @GottaLaff I actually dread TFG stroking out before he's convicted, because criminal cases can't continue if the defendant dies. I want all the details and co-conspirators to be revealed, I want the slow-learning majority of voters to finally have the truth hammered home, I want the other would-be demagogues waiting in the wings to see him behind bars and realize tyranny has consequences, I want the rest of the world to see that the U.S. still stands for justice, and I don't want the stochastic terrorism that will occur if he dies unexpectedly and his Q-loving base believes he was murdered. In all those ways, him wasting away slowly in jail is a much, much more constructive outcome.

Nurse friend: "Had a patient yesterday who said she was not wearing a mask at work so she could build up immunity."
Me: "Ask her if she feels the same way about condoms and AIDS."

Hmmm all those arab - non-Jewish members of Kenesset...

All those non-jewish arab voters and citizens...

How's that apartheid claim working out there for ya?

Because again, words have meaning. No, I am not and never was a lawyer, but even I know that nothing about Israel matches the definition of "apartheid"

Wayne LaPierre, announcing that he has resigned from the NRA, confirms that what you’ll really need to pry from his cold dead hands is the money he stole.

$35/month insulin.

Brought to you *not* by voluntary industry action -- but courtesy of the Inflation Reduction Act, passed by a Democratic Congress and signed into law by Joe Biden.

91 days. An unending nightmare. So many stories of heartache. May the hostages be reunited with their families soon. #BringThemHome #Israel #BringThemHomeNow
