Getting a mortgage is just rent-to-own housing in which a select group of people qualify to partake and maybe they make it out ahead of where they started. You don't own ANYTHING until the bank gets its' cut. Housing shouldn't be where you place a bet to try and get ahead. It should be for living

Driving through a more Red part of Oregon and still seeing HUNDREDS of people turn out for No Kings gives me so much hope. Needed that 💜

My parents never had to force me to read. My parents created an environment that gave me the space to learn and always encouraged me to pursue an education with vigor. Stop handing a screen to your child and sit with them and read a book together. You can watch your TV show when they are asleep

WotC - "Not every set is for everyone, also we are going to double the products we push onto the playerbase"

*players skip sets to save money for the sets they actually want*

WotC - "Which content creators made you hate Spoderman??"

They are completely out of touch with players in a crazy economy

I just... I have to be dreaming right? These people are stuck in middle school and they are in the driver's seat barreling towards a cliff...

So the president of the United States plans to meet with Putin in Hungary, and when a reporter asked where that plan came from, this was the reply of the United States government www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

In response to HuffPost’s query about who suggested Budapest, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt responded, “Your mom did,” and White House communications director Steven Cheung replied: “Your mom.”

Healthcare is great and all, but why not actually use this leverage to force the R's hand when it comes to a dictator militarizing our streets and invading our cities? We shouldn't be so quick to fund a fascist government that will just reneg on anything they promise you

My Italian-American co-worker lookin to start debates about why we should celebrate Columbus today. His argument? "Well he's Italian, we gotta have something."

I swear there was a time where people had functioning brains but maybe that was just my sheltered ass coping during my youth...

I just... do not understand why so many people are either incapable or unwilling to have a real conversation about what life looks like in the coming decades with AI in the workforce. They truly seem to be under the impression that life will just continue on as it "always has". No change needed
