Farmers rotate their crops or avoid planting in the same location to avoid disease, pests, and poor yields. Bluesky is that plot of fresh dirt. Exhilarating to have a clean space to grow and engage. Those other plots are diseased and cultivated by fuckin morons. Let's build a cornucopia of strength.

Finland ended homelessness with a housing first strategy that gave people apartments before they secured employment
Now they’re proposing a 4 day work week and 6 hour work days
True work life balance
Meanwhile in the US, people work two jobs and can’t afford food or healthcare.

It’s all so exhausting but stay engaged even when the news feels like a migraine wearing a trench coat. Authoritarianism counts on exhaustion. Democracy depends on very boring persistence.

They should do the same for school shootings.
Himes: "I think it's really important this video by made public ... it's important people see what it looks like when the full force of the US military is turned on two guys who are clinging to a piece of wood and about to go under just so they have a visceral feel for what it is we're doing"

The most transparent administration in history is now hiding both the complete Epstein files and the complete video of the Sept. 2 boat strike from the American people, only releasing the parts of each that they want you to see while concealing the rest.

There isn’t much for our Supreme Court to hear, the Constitution is already clear. And just to be absolutely clear: the Supreme Court does not have the power to overrule or rewrite our Constitution.

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

Over on the Facebook, you can bet that whether it's ICE brutalizing immigrant toddlers, or the US military mass-murdering civilians in international waters, every person cheering it on makes sure that you know they are a "Christian" in their profile. Every. Single. One.

"I don't need prizes"?!?!! The Felon literally has been bitching about deserving an award for months. We need to see the 25th in action. He can have that prize.
A "FIFA Peace Prize" is tantamount to getting an "AutoZone Best Actor in a Dramatic Play" award.
And "I want to really save lives" is rich coming from the homicidal slob who is murdering people on fishing boats in the Caribbean.

If you listen to MAGA, they truly hate America and everything that makes it great. They hate democracy, free and fair elections, diversity, and the separation of church and state.

That's exactly what he's saying, except the truth part is more this regime's wishful thinking.
So he’s saying when he was a podcaster he was being paid to lie and invent conspiracies for his listeners but now he has to tell the truth.
