Urgent Appeal🚨
We are appealing to you from northern Gaza. We are homeless with no shelter, and the rain has flooded our tent, making it impossible for us to sleep.
We beg you to donate to us & support us so we can buy a tent that costs $100 to protect us from rain

They want to make it impossible for people to work and for it to be illegal to be homeless or mentally ill or trans or any number of things and then they want the people they jail to be brutalized

But the memes are somehow still worth it right gang
Gov. @gavinnewsom says he disagrees with Mayor @zohrankmamdani about the need for a wealth tax on billionaires, which he is “adamantly against” - says Dems are a “big tent party” with both views.

HOMELESSNESS IS NOT A DRUG PROBLEM IT'S A HOUSING PROBLEM
I'm so sick of y'all in my mentions with this talking point, just stop.
PEOPLE CANNOT AFFORD RENT. Half of renters are paying over 30% of their income on rent, another quarter are paying over 50%!!!
People need homes they can afford!

Reminder, DOGE wasn’t about cutting costs, it was about stealing your information.
NEW: Elon Musk's Grok chatbot will, with minimal prompting, provide residential addresses of everyday Americans.
Prompts as simple as "[name] address" immediately returned accurate home addresses of private citizens — alongside other personal info we didn't ask for.

We often talk about humans being separate from animals because we can create skyscrapers and airplanes and symphonies. But we also have elevated the raw ingredients of the earth into magic. And you can live here and not get to enjoy any of it, and let me tell you: it truly, truly sucks.

All of the companies that make the software I use are increasing their prices, to account for an "investment" in AI.
I'm sat here imagining how my clients would feel if I added 30% to each invoice, because I "really got into gambling".

It may sound radical, but if one guy has so much wealth and power that he can use the large newspaper he owns to publicly threaten to ruin a service we all rely on, presumably as a bargaining tactic to get lower rates, we probably need to tax that guy until he can't do that anymore.
Exclusive: Amazon has long been USPS’s top customer, providing over $6 billion in annual revenue in 2025.
But Amazon may give up its long-standing partnership with USPS to deliver packages itself, which could spell disaster for the mail agency.

Friendly reminder that any Five Nights at Freddy's property benefits its creator, who made Christian video games early in his career and is a regular (now quite rich) donor to Republican causes and politicians. So maybe don't spend your money on any of that shit this weekend. Or, you know, ever.

Ours lets you check out like 50 books at a time? Also they approved at least one of my purchase requests and the book is going to be sent to me and then I'm supposed to return it to them after three weeks

The US is close to an institutional collapse across multiple public health agencies. Trump/RFK have purged anyone with expertise, many have fled and they’ve been replaced w functionaries who are either incompetent or malicious. I don’t think many understand how close to the edge we are right now.

Yeah, a House member needs to send up that impeachment flag. This is illegal, immoral, dangerous behavior — that is also likely unconstitutional as well.

i think it is fascinating that so many artists say that their best ideas come from out of the blue from within, it is sad that the world is now specifically set up to eliminate those moments of calm and peace where the ideas can surface.

It was an honor to have so many conversations w Leslie Lee on his podcast & mine. His being out about his LC status on every platform was extremely brave. There’s a social cost to being out about chronic illness & “salting the vibe”. Whether talking TV or pandemic, he was incisive & a truth teller
