If you knew how quickly people forget the dead, you would stop living to impress people.

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

I saw this posted and credited to an un-named insider at Kent County Council. Too long to copy and share the content as alt text.

Don't confuse my hatred of the hyperwealthy for jealousy over what they have. I don't want a six figure sports car, or a 40 room mansion, or a gold leaf truffle wagyu steak dinner.

I want redistribution of wealth that allows for infrastructural support of all citizens' basic survival needs.

Adelita Grijalva: "There is so much that cannot be done until I'm sworn in. So every moment that passes that I'm not able to provide constituent services or be a voice for Arizona, I cannot bring the issues forward that they send me here to do."

Be proud of yourself for surviving all of the silent struggles you don't speak about.

Just a reminder that if you died today, your job will be advertised tomorrow and filled in a few weeks.

Take your vacation and sick days. Deactivate your notifications after work.

No one awards trophies for burnout. Put yourself first. Because no one else will.

We’re being asked by half the media & politicians to swallow the idea that known racist football hooligans should be allowed to rampage through our cities for NO OTHER REASON than that they happen to be Israeli.

Fuck. That.

My 14-year-old self would never have guessed that, in 50 years' time, all the world's music would be available at the click of a button, you'd navigate the globe by carrying a tiny computer around in your pocket, and the US President would post a video of himself shitting over American citizens.

🇺🇸 🔥 That. Was. Impressive.

We are watching America reassert itself and its values from the grassroots up. The world saw you and we have huge hope invested in you.

It's no coincidence that Reform UK are being bank rolled by the very same billionaires who are putting up your bills and burning the planet.

The small boats are a distraction.

Stop blaming immigrants and start blaming an exploitative capitalist system.

I know it's a fool's errand to expect anything from the media but "President posts video of himself dumping diarrhea on America" is an important thing to call attention to for a dozen reasons
