Republican efforts to extinguish the last remaining bison (currently at 0.1% of their former numbers) are truly a crime against America. You literally could not make it up. How any American stands by this is beyond comprehension. Shame on @GovGianforte thetimes.com/article/25b3d3…

MAGA currently has the same goddamn sliver of a majority to work from as Biden did, yet somehow *that's* not a barrier to them enacting their rancid agenda that conveniently always has just enough blue defectors to get whatever the fuck they want.

Wait. So California and Virginia has weeks of legislative crap, A WHOLE GOD DAMN ELECTION EACH, and Floridian Authoritarians just introduce and make law a new gerrymander explicitly against their constitution in a week?

Elon Musk is one of the least competent tech leaders there is. Engineers of every discipline, including his own employees, say he knows basically nothing about rocketry, CS, robotics or engineering. I hate this lie that he is skilled because there’s evidence that proves otherwise
Yatharth Mann@yatharthmann

Elon Musk is an engineer. Jeff Bezos is an engineer. Larry Elison is an engineer. Larry Page is an engineer. Sergey Brin is an engineer. Jensen Huang is an engineer. Turns out capitalism does reward skills and intelligence, and the richest people are indeed engineers.

If capitalism truly rewarded skill or intelligence, the richest people would be neurosurgeons, engineers, and scientists. If it rewarded talent, it would be artists, writers, and creators. If it rewarded hard work, it would be cleaners, laborers, and service workers. But it’s none of them.

@RobinWoods33 @DrNeilStone The language isn’t necessary, especially when you can literally easily look this up. He got the tattoo covered. It is no longer visible, and there is another tattoo in its place. I consider that an appropriate response. Kind of a disappointing reply from you TBH

Josh Shapiro should never get close to the presidency. He is egotistical and power hungry and cannot accept even the smallest of criticisms. He has turned on Democrats multiple times.
Holly Otterbein@hollyotterbein

Scoop: Josh Shapiro secretly helped a Republican state treasurer's 2024 reelection bid after the official's Democratic opponent had criticized Shapiro as a potential VP pick, a close Shapiro ally said last week. w/ @AlexThomp axios.com/2026/05/03/jos…

@RobinWoods33 @DrNeilStone Dude, he doesn’t have a Nazi tattoo. He *had* one, but got it either removed or covered months ago. His explanation for why he got it is very reasonable too. Kinda weird to be cool with a Nazi tattoo just because it pisses off Zionists.

@DrNeilStone You know I was quite uncomfortable with the fact he has a Nazi tattoo, well more so that he refused to admit he knew what it meant, I'm always willing to accept those who change. But now seeing zios losing their minds over him, I'm cool with it.

@DrNeilStone Brother, the GOP fields actual Nazis. Platner provided an incredibly reasonable explanation of his tattoo and behaved exactly like I would imagine someone in his situation would. This line of attack is really, really, really unintelligent.

@vivalaamer @KRobbinsMN About the fact that I’ve worn a specific item of clothing before? Sure, guy, but I find it funny that you chose to focus on my clothing for some strange reason instead of having an intelligent conversation about the rest of your original reply.

@BrenesRoch14768 @KRobbinsMN I just don’t understand your point about democratic leadership in MN making poor choices, because the evidence shows that our leadership has done a pretty good job of making MN awesome. I think some GOP leaders could take some tips from us

@BrenesRoch14768 @KRobbinsMN I mean, it is a pretty well-run state though. We’re ranked 4th in the USA for quality of life, and we’re ranked highly in education, healthcare, and home ownership. Our taxes are a bit high so our economical ranking is low, but even our crime is better than a majority of states

@vivalaamer @KRobbinsMN As for my clothing, weird question to ask? I’m in sweats right now, if you were wondering? Not sure how that relates to my original post. I have worn a dress before, they’re pretty comfy? This part of your reply seems pretty nonsensical

@vivalaamer @KRobbinsMN So like, I agree with you that we should’ve voted on a new flag, but my point about her supporting fascists stands. About the illegal immigrants point of your response, your point is too vague for me to give a thorough response, but if you have more to say I’d be happy to hear it
