An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.
Where is Leslie Knope? We need her!
Can we stop saying someone "has autism" like it's a disease to be treated and start saying that they "are autistic" in the same sense that they "are athletic" or "are artistic" or "are tall"?

Let's be clear: no one should be taking medical advice from the man who told Americans to inject bleach.

To moms worried about the Tylenol they took while pregnant: you deserve better than being RFK Jr's scapegoat.

And to the autism community: you are loved exactly as you are.

Among other things, I'm just so pissed that a country that once made winning WWII its whole personality is now building concentration camps

I think it would be good to get some women in charge of the countries that have nuclear weapons. Women talk to each other. Women can be reasonable. Enough with the macho men and swinging dicks.

Don’t look at me, I voted for the black lady who didn’t want to burn down our economy.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

This is really freaking disgusting. Deporting a surgeon here legally on an H1B Visa
"Illegal boycott" has got to be the absolute most moronic oxymoron I have ever heard in my life.

Officials at the FAA have directed staff to identify tens of millions of dollars to fund a Starlink deal for upgrading air traffic control communications. Staff has been instructed to find the funds while minimizing documentation and avoiding a paper trail.
