A cellphone free experience. People don’t talk to each other enough anymore.

Warning ‼️ social media and “I have to take this” addicts, STAY AWAY! 😊

This is the correct take. Stewing in white supremacist propaganda is bad for your thinking. And if think you are so savvy that it won’t impact you, you are the exact kind of mark they are slowly converting (I’m looking at you, centrist pundits).
It’s really funny how a generation will roll its eyes at parents who watch Fox News but doesn’t see why being immersed in Twitter is having the same effect. Lots of serious people show up on Fox News too but that shouldn’t be your primary source on the news.

I’m pretty sure there are video clips of him and the Faux news folks complaining about how much Obama played golf. I’m never shocked by the hypocrisy but it still grinds my gears.

This! The same is true for paying government workers. For example, one of the reasons why Bernie Madoff was able to get away with running a Ponzi scheme for so long was because the SEC didn’t pay enough to attract the people with the skills. Talent isn’t cheap. You get what you pay for.
People think that because nonprofits are mission-oriented charitable organizations the people that lead them and work there are not supposed to get paid.

Newsflash: nonprofits are companies. What’s different is they don’t pay profits to shareholders.

You gotta pay for talent. End of story.

Another problem is people reading headlines and not context, feeding America's program expense ratio is 98.27% for FY2024, meaning nearly all of its donations go directly to programs and services that help people facing hunger.
I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.

I worked all day and still have to bill my time before I get put on some type of list. Billing is the worst part of being an attorney by far. Hate it

Someone left these flyers in my neighborhood and “I am confusion”!!
There’s so much going on—is this an ad for his business, a dating profile, both?

As someone that works in big law, I think it’s WILD how much first & second years make. Firms want to attract talented law students but there has to be a better way lol. The US legal field should adopt a 2-year apprenticeship program with lower expectations and lower pay.

I might get dragged for this but IDC. My sister in Christ, this man had been credibly accused of sexually assaulting more than 15 women when you voted for him.

1. Why would you vote for this man?
2. Why would you think his behavior would be any different than it has been?
“I voted for you but your behavior on this has been a national embarrassment”
