I would never gamble on sports, especially after seeing many of the boneheaded decisions I've made in Dynasty

IMO, posting a controversial/disputed take & then turning off replies is worth a block. I'll end up blocking accounts that are followed by lots of people I respect, but I just can't abide it. Don't do it. It's gross. It shows a lack of consideration for people around you. Just don't post those ones.

this is accurate to my experience. it's a question of how big the pool of people is making roughly the same number of people who are scolds feel louder.

Much of Trump's first term presidency was not a disaster partly because he did not run into big external crises until Covid came along. His second term is a disaster because he is actively creating those crises.

the thing that the Democratic base cannot abide above all else right now is Handing It To Them

and being anti-trans is, in fact, Handing It To Them

don't do that, it's bad morals and bad politics

Frankly, we've seen enough: it's time to fire all the cowards who toadied to Trump and disgraced their institutions in the process. CEOs, lawyers, university presidents. Clear them all out, replace them with people who stood firm. Remake our society with leaders who have principles and courage.

Chargers would be a horrible fantasy spot for Shaheed IMO. Buffalo, on the other hand, would be incredible.

Idaho considers an 'apocalyptic' choice for disabled people and families Difficult budget decisions in a number of states are threatening vital programs for disabled people at home and caregivers in the workforce.

Idaho's proposal to essentially end home care is the first sign that last year's tax cut bill could be disastrous for people with disabilities in the U.S.

The U.S. Senate must be clear: no war with Iran.

OCASIO-CORTEZ STATEMENT ON
TRUMP'S COMBAT OPERATIONS IN IRAN
"The American people are once again dragged into a war they did not want by a president who does not care about the long-term consequences of his actions. This war is unlawful. It is unnecessary. And it will be catastrophic.

"Just this week, Iran and the United States were negotiating key measures that could have staved off war. The President walked away from these discussions and chose war instead.President Trump flippantly acknowledged the possibility of American casualties, stating "that often happens in war.'

"Mr. President: this was not an inevitability. This is a deliberate choice of aggression when diplomacy and security were within reach. Stop lying to the American people.

"Violence begets violence. We learned this lesson in Iraq. We learned this lesson in Afghanistan. And we are about to learn it again in Iran. Bombs have yet to create enduring democracies in the region and this will be no different.

"In moments of war, our Constitution is unambiguous: Congress authorizes war. The President does not. I will do my part to uphold our Constitution by voting YES on Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie's War Powers Resolution. Every member of Congress must join us in rejecting this aimless war.

Congress must return immediately and vote to put an end to this war.

Every Senator should be on the recordβ€”the American people deserve to know which of their leaders supports another potentially bloody and costly war in the Middle East.

No war with Iran.

President Trump has just launched another illegal attack on Iran after he claimed the attack in June 'obliterated' Iran’s nuclear program. He has not gotten authorization from Congress to go to war. That power belongs to Congress, not the President. Americans do not want war in the Middle East.

28.02.2026 14:06 πŸ‘ 572 πŸ” 131 πŸ’¬ 65 πŸ“Œ 16

Remember: Donald Trump created this crisis. He walked away from the Iran nuclear deal that was working, promising a "better deal." He didn't deliver. He escalated, abandoned real diplomacy, and has now led us into a conflict that puts us all at risk.
