NYC is a Police State
"NYC has the largest and most expensive police department in the country. It is legitimately larger than some countries' armies....We spend more than $100 million on their police misconduct settlements and we give them an extra $100 million in overtime." #NYPD (msolurin)

"NYPD's top officials didn't just get on twitter and begin HARASSING a homeless man who'd been arrested, and the judge and prosecutor in his case ... just so they could spread lies about bail reform. They didn't even get the right judge, prosecutor, or county." #NYPD

Isa-Lee Wolf @IsaLeeWolfThis is really going to bum out one of my friends (SORRY!!)
But that assumed "superiority" of the work of men has to end. It's not based in reality.

I do love "The Thin Man," but I think the movie I've re-watched (and quoted) the most times is "The Big Lebowski," hands down.

I'm choosing The Thin Man because the banter between Nick and Nora was what I'd been waiting for all my life.

I relate to this on every level.
Angela Votes Biden-Harris '24 @tickyreeDo you ever imagine your life is a movie and you're the star? My audience was just treated to a very suspenseful scene in which I desperately struggled to open my water bottle and stage-whispered "lefty f***ing loosey" through clenched teeth until it gave way.12:01 PM - Jun 15, 2023

The store at the NASA Kennedy Visitor Center 🚀
The store at Shakespeare's Globe in London 🎭

If you're spouting a link to another site, don't just rely on the UI to show people the title/description of the destination, include it as text in the spout. That way if someone echo/replies you, people have some idea of what's getting echoed. #spoutibletips

Would love to join in on some (I think?) non-political raging, but I have no idea what most of this sentence means.

It is beyond enraging that, currently, Americans' most effective weapon to combat this shit is going to be pharmaceutical companies suing to preserve their enormous profits, which will only coincidentally defend our rights to medical care.

You know how I knew this was a cis, straight white guy even before reading this? The Washington Post described him as "a young, charismatic gun enthusiast."
Charlotte Clymer @charlotteclymerExcellent timing that a 21 year-old cis, straight white guy Air National Guardsman who makes videos of himself shooting guns while shouting racist and antisemitic epithets is behind the massive intel documents leak on Discord while Republicans claim that trans folks are bad for military readiness.01:56 PM - Apr 13, 2023

Daniel Darke @DarkespoutsI can easily explain everything wrong with #TheLittleMermaid using today's woke point of view. However, there's a fine line between woke and stupid, and changing #KisstheGirl and #PoorUnfortunateSouls to include consent for a girl trying to get a boy to kiss her is stupid05:15 PM - Apr 10, 2023
This stare? That's consent
