Via Ron Filipkowski:

26 House Democrats filed a formal complaint today that Speaker Johnson is bringing in christian nationalists to serve as Guest Chaplains, including one who attended J6 because he preached it was “God’s will” for Trump to stay in office.

I haven’t watched yet, we DVR’d. Now I’m not so sure I want to.

Via Stephen Robinson:

Jon Stewart complaining that 2024 is “two old guys” again is like me complaining that it’s “two white guys” again. It misses the point and minimizes the stakes.

Via Aaron Rupar:

Some of Stewart’s jokes landed but I would argue the message of his monologue is actually the very last thing we need right now unless you want four more years of Trump. It certainly didn’t inspire anyone to vote.

@GottaLaff I was surprised by his comments, too.
Disappointing

The skin of your laundry pods dissolve in the washing machine, right?

They dissolve into microplastic.
And wastewater treatment systems have no way to filter that out so the microplastics go straight into streams and the ocean.

Just pour your laundry soap out of a box or bottle.

@CelloMomOnCars just use liquid.
Dissolves easier.
We don’t need all the artificial colors & smells either.

@thesquirrelfish @RiaResists @CelloMomOnCars I can’t cite a definitive answer, but I’m gonna say the big plastic bottles add much less microplastics to our water supply & more.
The plastic casing on those pods breaks down in the water cycle, going directly into our water supplies.
I’ve recycled everything all my life which is another positive for the jugs. Also refill stores are popping up on various places. Can refill soap, shampoo, environmentally friendly cleaning liquids…lotion

Once again, Pamel Hilliard Owens issues a warning about third-party voting:

"In 2016, there was a concerted effort to demonize and discount highly qualified Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, and far too many people decided to vote 3rd-party or vote 'their conscience,' leading to an Electoral College win for Donald Trump even though Hillary garnered over 3 million more popular votes."

Former D.C. Police Officer Michael Fanone: "Three years ago, I witnessed first-hand the MAGA-fueled assault on the heart of our democracy, a violent attack that was shameful, deplorable and completely un-American. The indifference and lies I've witnessed since 2021 are a national disgrace."

"We must come together as Americans over the next year and ensure the next presidential election is peacefully certified on , 2025. We cannot wait. We cannot fail."

@GottaLaff I don’t want to “come together” w any dirty .
To me, there’s nothing worse in the world.
Many of them appear good-natured, but they are part of a stubborn ecosystem of oppression.
I wish it was illegal for trump supporters to vote.
How can people who clearly can’t think contribute to toxic waste that’ll kill us all?

Best I can do is maybe tolerate.
