So many new platforms, but worth the effort
Goodreads is owned by Amazon & there is an AMAZING alternative‼️

The StoryGraph is a black women-owned competitor to GoodReads with better UI in my opinion.
When you sign up you can even transfer your data from Goodreads to StoryGraph!

BILL BURR: “If someone’s working 160 hours a month and can’t make their rent, you’re not paying them enough. Maybe you should just be worth $900,000,000… How does a CEO take a f*cking 8 figure bonus and none of your employees have dental insurance?”

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

NEW: Two Chicago police officers were investigated for sexual misconduct — then promoted. It wasn’t an oversight.

Despite a decadeslong reform effort, the Chicago Police Department’s promotions system allows for disciplinary records to be ignored.

Expiring ACA tax credits will hit small businesses especially hard. Meanwhile, 74% of small business owners are worried that their business won’t survive due to Trump’s tariffs.

Trump is crushing small businesses while doling out tax breaks to his big corporate donors.

He’s the one who is no good. He’s the one who has his War Dept killing fisherman off the Venezuelan coast. He’s the one we don’t want. 

He’s a vile bigot.
Trump: "People that shouldn't be in our country, and that includes Somalians and plenty of others. We don't want those people. Many of them are no good. All they do is go around killing each other, then they come into our country and tell us how to run our country. We don't want them."

I’ve been working against school vouchers for a decade. I’ve also been watching what has happened in other states.

Missouri is following the Arizona voucher plan.

Arizona blew a $1 billion hole in their state budget last year because tax money was diverted to private religious schools.

One by one, each of the nine prisoners appeared virtually before a special panel of the Louisiana parole board.
