Neuro PT, Northwest Lower Michigander, love to grow things and love my hoop house. I believe love is a verb, BLM, MSM really sucks and it is getting more difficult to be an optimist.

Apparently we’ve established that if the US can seize the largest tanker off Venezuela, it can just as easily seize a small, alleged drug boat without murdering the occupants.

Disney has hiked prices and laid off hundreds of workers this year.
Yet Disney paid its CEO $41B in 2024. It just reported a 36% increase in net profits for parks and streaming. And it plans to double stock buybacks next year.
Remember this as Disney turns to AI.

This…and certainly not just about healthcare
Ossoff: "This is so much deeper than the politics. What does it say about the moral condition of this Congress that the thing that has them all tied up in knots is a very simple question: Should people's health insurance premiums go up double or triple? This is a policy choice."

A clear, infuriating breakdown of Instacart's AI-driven price manipulation:
EXCLUSIVE: We found that Instacart is using AI algorithms to charge customers different prices for the same items.
It's not just online. It's in physical grocery stores too.
Our months-long investigation with @consumerreports.org and @groundwork.bsky.social found it could cost families $1200/year.

In May, Human Rights Watch released a report showing how gig platforms use opaque algorithms to erode workers' wages.
Now a new investigation finds Instacart is running AI price experiments: charging different people different prices for the *same* groceries, sometimes by more than 23%.

Ossoff's ad hits home: When people who rely on the ACA speak up, the picture gets painfully clear. These subsidies aren’t a luxury, they’re the only thing keeping health insurance within reach for thousands of Georgia families.
