  3. I just want to thank all of the banal and inane humorous accounts and posters which give us a needed distraction in what feel like unprecedented depraved times.

    Thanks for reminding us that distraction was always a part of the problem, and disallowing the slow, maddening, bubbling combination of frustration, disgust, despair, and anger to reach a critical half life that actually prompts difficult action is how we got here.

  10. Let them have grenades!

    "Grenades filled with rubber pellets and other so-called ‘less lethal’ munitions have been increasingly deployed, despite being linked to serious injuries and even deaths."
    The stinger grenade, "was used in line with its guidelines" in Melbourne.

  11. The President Is Perfectly Fine If You Starve

    The message behind the government shutdown is loud and clear: Hunger is acceptable collateral damage in service of Trump’s agenda.

    By Alain Stephens

    "For the first time in modern American history, its leader is intentionally starving his own people."

  12. The #Trump admin said in a second filing with the court that the money it is provisioning for #SNAP — derived from an emergency reserve — would cover “50% of eligible households’ current allotments,” meaning that many #LowIncome families could once again be in dire straits in a matter of days or weeks.

    #law #LetThemEatCake

  13. The govt communicated its intentions in a filing with a federal court, which had required an update by Monday. In the filing, the #DOJ said that the admin would “fulfill its obligation to expend” money in an emergency account for #SNAP, so that states could “calculate the benefits available for each eligible household.”

    In doing so, the #Trump admin said it would not tap additional funds that might have allowed low-income beneficiaries to receive full payments in November.

    #law #LetThemEatCake

  14. The #USDA planned to freeze payments to #SNAP starting Nov. 1 because it said it could no longer keep funding it due to the shutdown. The USDA has a $5 billion contingency fund for the program, but the #Trump admin reversed an earlier agency plan to use that money to keep SNAP running. #Democrats argue that the admin could also use a separate fund of about $23 billion.

    The situation leaves millions with uncertainty about how they will feed themselves.

  15. My Governor, California’s Gavin Newsom on Trump

    He’s right. Trump and the Republican’s don’t give a damn about the people living in the US.

    The republican party platform:
    - “Frankly, we don’t give a damn.”
    - “Let them eat cake.”

  16. 🧵3/3 Trump is Purposefully Denying Food to 42M Americans He Thinks Are Democrats

    If Democrats cannot exploit this (and 2 other #LetThemEatCake moments) they should give it up & disband:

  19. Next up, I played #HeadsWillRoll (2009) by the #YeahYeahYeahs and worked the crowd (which included a bachelorette party) up into a frenzy! This song is definitely part of the soundtrack of the #revolution -- especially when the heads start rolling!

    "Off, off with your head
    Dance, dance til you're dead (dead)
    Heads will roll
    Heads will roll
    Heads will roll
    On the floor..."

    'Stand up for us!' #Republican shouted down as he defends #DOGE cuts at town hall

    by Matthew Chapman, February 20, 2025

    "Rep. Rich McCormick (R-GA) tried to tout massive federal spending cuts proposed by tech billionaire Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency task force at a town hall in his heavily Republican district on Thursday evening — and attendees let him have it."

  21. My American friends: I’ve been hearing a lot about your egg situation and I’d like to help in my small way. No eggs are used for these chocolate cupcakes that are very rich and moist. I make them often. Enjoy.

  25. From many of us way down here in the abyss, it doesn't matter what color the tie or who's got a wooden hammer. Things are likely not going to change.

    As walter Cronkite used to say, "and you we're there" #woodstock94 was great and Henry Rollins spoke to us.
