I’m still struggling with the fact that ICE “brown shirts” went to a taco shop and thought they would get served.

F that!

If you own a Starbucks bear cup, I assume that your IQ is under 95 and your moral compass points directly at JD Vance's Peter Thiel-shaped asshole.

“ABC11 spoke with Lori Lober, a study participant. Initially, she was given a grim prognosis, with median survival rate of less than 2 to 3% for five years. However, the trial at Duke Health gave her new hope. She has remained disease-free for 24 years.”

I could cry.

I've spent 11 years surrounded by political operatives, and I've found that they're all more or less the same.

I don't mean the community organizers. You know who I mean. The social climbers. Narcissist AI/tech execs running anti-PAC campaigns and poor-mouthing to feel relatable to underpaid staff;

Sometimes I think that time in high school when a girl I knew to be an excellent singer overheard me singing and demanded that I sing louder, and instead of embracing my main character moment, I said something incredibly awkward and physically ran away.

I was not built for the spotlight.

AIPAC (American Israeli Public Affairs Committee) is a right wing fascist lobby group that supports WAR CRIMINAL Netanyahu. Any politician that is even partly supported by the group should be thrown out of office. That includes almost all republicans, and even a few democrats.

This is heartbreaking.

We are being told to isolate ourselves until we rely on for-profit tech even for the illusion of human connection.

I am terrified for Gen Alpha, and as a parent of more than one of them, I will fucking throw hands at anyone advocating for this shit.
Nightmarish idea for a startup tbh

I have no interest in working with anyone who believes generative AI is a net good. It's the fastest way for me to lose respect for any professional.

The emperor is wearing no clothes. You think people can't tell, but everyone can. The people telling you that they can't are either lying or dumb.

Reminder that Congress is being paid during the shutdown.
US soldiers stationed in Germany and civilian employees of the US armed forces are not receiving any salary or other payments.

They are being fed by food banks and charities in Germany.

@reuters.com also just reported that US military base workers in Italy are being fed by charity too.

Hearing rumors that @montanademocrats.org are considering running a pro-Israel "progressive" in MT-01 to punish Russ Cleveland for talking about Gaza, in addition to the out-of-district AIPAC guy I've heard described as the personality equivalent of wet bread.

This party is so addicted to losing.

Honestly it would be great to contribute like this, say, once or twice a week.

Or maybe drive a garbage truck or a school bus occasionally.

When it’s not every single day, it’s pretty easy to stay motivated.
you ever think about the works progress administration? I sure do. I wish that was a thing now. I would be so glad to contribute my labor to like. A random ass local bridge
