James Talarico@jamestalarico.bsky.social · 2h agoThe American Dream has become an American Nightmare. It’s too expensive to buy a home. It’s too expensive to get married and have kids. It’s too expensive to retire comfortably. The top 1% put the American Dream behind a paywall.
In a country with a president who is such a destructive sore loser, politicians who are both helpful and gracious in defeat is a greatly appreciated novelty.
“When a country with less than five percent of the world's population has nearly half of the world's privately owned guns and makes up nearly a third of the world's mass shootings, it's time to stop saying guns make us safer.” ..(DaShanne Stokes) .. (cartoon David Horsey)

If they wake up, you’re in big trouble. Keep that dog quiet until you’re out of the drop zone. Great picture though.

We invented phonetic writing so we could put our sounds down on paper and, by glancing at a page, hear someone speaking in our head—an invention that became so widespread in the last few thousand years that we hardly ever stop to consider how astonishing it is. —Carl Sagan
Yesterday, I saw this & checked the numbers. They're almost right. According to Forbes, there are 902 billionaires in the US, but 49 indeed made their money from private healthcare. The dots just moved closer to each other.
Waking up to Sharia Law in NYC is crazy. Knicks won, crime is down, 2,000 toddlers are going to school for free, parents got “date night” with nyc babysitters, they’re building housing on city land, small businesses are saving money and selling ice cream. Its sunny out i should go get one.
Everyone’s expectations got skewed over the past week but Abdul El-Sayed getting $70 million spent against him in a state he lost a primary by like 20 points eight years ago and still winning last night is probably the most impressive electoral accomplishment of the decade.

Never will I think this creature can’t sink lower. He ALWAYS manages to do so.

Choose for yourself if you tell them that an old guy in Australia thinks this is one of the most heartening things he’s seen from America in a while. I saw the Moonship fly. The only footprints on the Moon yet were left by Americans working together. I hope you can get your country back together.

My first thought was how can this possibly be legal? Then I remembered. Your country is currently ungoverned and occupied by looters.

The commies are living rent free in MAGA heads. Remember there is space to share. They don’t have to think, read or reason. They follow Truth Social and Fox News. So they just download.

Mike Rothschild@rothschildmd.bsky.social · yesterdayThe Spokane fire conspiracy theories are almost identical to the Altadena fire conspiracy theories. These people have no understand of how fire works, how science works, or why some things burn. I'm writing a book chapter about it, but the people who need to read it don't read books.
1 in 8 young people personally know someone who has been the target of deepfake nudes. The DEFIANCE Act stands to give those survivors a chance to seek justice. Whether my name is on the bill or not, we must not allow sexual predators to run amok. We must pass DEFIANCE.
