A lot of incurious motherfuckers about to find out what a tariff is real fast.

One interesting point @AOC made on IG Live yesterday is that "political education" must be a bigger part of movement politics. "A lot of people may not know how laws are passed or how governance works, and that's okay, but it's very important that we start to learn now."

It’s also embarrassing that we’re still using the electoral college to decide our presidential elections as if it isn’t a racist and undemocratic relic of 18th century slavery government. It’s embarrassing how many folk still don’t know this. time.com/4558510/electo…

The first time I heard a raven imitate human speech I lost my mind, because it is genuinely one of the creepiest things you will ever hear.

I’ve been watching videos of ravens speaking for like half an hour now. I’ve never heard this used as a way of debunking ghost stories in the woods but this is way better than standard skeptic material
