My stomach hurts from laughing so hard. This is hilarious! And I love how the cat in the upper left keeps looking surprised, while the one at the bottom center looks pissed off.
Mike Grattan @Mike_GrattanYeah...this is pretty spot on!

Putin & every Arab dictator is delighted that the world is focused on Rafah and even anti-Israel protests in Malmö & around the world.

Andrea Junker @StrandjunkerEveryone is talking about Clarence Thomas’ blatant corruption. Let’s not forget we *still* don’t know who paid off Brett Kavanaugh’s $92,000 country club fees, $200,000 credit card debt, and $1.2 million mortgage.04:03 PM - May 11, 2024

Their MAGA justices overturned Roe after lying to the senate UNDER OATH.
Republicans WILL ban abortion nationwide. We can’t give them that chance."

This is good advice when filling out the ballot. Many times I get frustrated because I have to do a bit more homework 📄 but I do look up the candidates to see if there is a past it not. https://x.com/cwebbonline/...

I read endorsements from local papers, bar associations, unions, and police unions, considering their biases. I check out candidate agendas & interviews, past resume experience & old news coverage.

President Biden wants to protect and strengthen Social Security and Medicare. The GOP and TFG want to pillage them in order to line their pockets, with no care whatsoever who will be hurt.

I am on the fence about AI in many ways (mostly its potential for misuse), but I think its use here on Spoutible has been great. Thread summaries are so helpful to deciding if I want to read/engage, and accuracy alerts are fantastic for determining the credibility of spouts containing mis/disinfo.
Christopher Bouzy @cbouzyAnd yet you see Accuracy Alerts working extremely well, and it will only get better from here. Humans can't fact-check thousands of posts a minute in real-time. So by the time the claim is fact-checked by a human, it will already be seen by thousands. 🤷🏾♂️09:09 AM - May 11, 2024

This is very odd: I followed a bunch of people earlier this evening, but only 2 of the folks I added are showing in my Following list. How did everyone else that I added fall off? I'm very confused! Is anyone else experiencing this?

I'm still fuming at the way TFG's lawyer Susan Necheles attacked Stormy Daniels: as if her profession stripped (pun intended) her of any right to choose who she bedded, or even to be upset when a large man 2x her age cornered her in his boxer shorts.
FTR, I still think TFG may have roofied Stormy.

RobPalmerIRL (he/him/his) @RobPalmerIRLWhat is consent for sexual activities? It's pretty simple. Consent is permission, mutual permission to do any sexual activities. When I talk about that, I don't mean just the main act of intercourse, I'm talking about sexting, sharing nudes, and even masturbation and oral sex. That's the thing.10:13 PM - May 07, 2024
