You’re terrible Muriel! 🏳️‍🌈

Fun, snark, occasional gayness, movies, travel, sports, burned out on politics for the moment so catching my breath on that one. Bluesky is a breath of fresh air after the right wing hellscape of Twitter.

To be clear, the CEO of Accenture was a not “asking” employees to not take vacations, she is telling them. If they DO take a vacation the company will likely track them and they will be let go the second they can be replaced. All so she can secure a bigger bonus for herself.

A headline with the CEO of Accenture “asking” employees not to take summer vacation to up their revenue.

Fascist Anti-Voting Rights saboteur John Roberts just gave the MAGA regime the permission to continue construction of the orange felon’s $1B dictator ballroom even though lower courts blocked it proving once again that the Supreme Court is both illegitimate and corrupt.

There it is. While you struggle to afford groceries, or find any that are edible, and pay thousands more every year in gas, rent, utilities, childcare, and healthcare, they are laughing all the way to the bank.

When you hear the US has a trillion dollar military budget it sounds terrifying and invincible But then you realise all that money is just being embezzled by defence contractors and corrupt politicians And the truth is, the US military is incredibly brittle and its morale is collapsing in realtime

Nah, I can’t be convinced this was death by suicide. Black people do not lynch themselves from trees, and the fact that these cases have been dismissed so quickly without thorough investigation is telling.

A young mother of four was found hanging from a tree in Mississippi. Now a local council member is calling for a federal investigation into Tasia Fortune’s death. Her case comes as questions still surround the death of 18-year-old Nolan Wells. Suri Crowe reports.

Right wing billionaires own all entertainment media now. This is why we keep getting articles about former actors with zero projects like Kirk Cameron here, or front page stories about his sister whose last movie had one fifth the viewers of a typical Hallmark made for TV movie.

A headline in In Touch Magazine talking about Kirk Cameron wondering what his kids think about some movie he did decades ago.

Google co-founder Sergey Brin has now pumped over $100M into stopping California's billionaire tax ballot initiative. So he and his fellow oligarchs can't afford a wealth tax, but they'll spend a fortune buying elections?

This is a ridiculous headline because the cyber truck is a far bigger disaster than the Ford Edsal. The Edsal only sold in North America back when the population was much smaller & still sold three times more vehicles than the cyber truck has sold worldwide. www.gadgetreview.com/teslas-cyber...

Tesla's Cybertruck Sales Are in Freefall – So Bad It Invites Ford Edsel Comparisons

Tesla Cybertruck sales collapsed 48% in 2025 to just 20,237 units, with Q1 2026 hitting a record low of 3,519 deliveries.

Today's daily reminder that the UAE is currently engaged in a genocide in Sudan using weapons they receive from the US and money they receive from our tourism dollars, and every celebrity who lives or vacations in Dubai or Abu Dhabi is knowingly funding it.

You and I — all of us taxpayers — funded this $533 million artillery plant outside of Dallas. It hasn’t produced a single usable shell. Yet the defense contractor, General Dynamics, has never been held publicly accountable. Nor has it had to pay a penny back… 1/

If all income in excess of $400,000 were subject to the Social Security payroll tax, Social Security’s solvency would be guaranteed forever. We could also expand Social Security benefits. There’s no reason even to consider reducing Social Security benefits or raising the age of eligibility.

Thomson Reuters, which owns news agency Reuters, has signed a $125M deal giving ICE access to its databases of personal data. USA Today has partnered with Palantir to gain "actionable intelligence" on its audiences. The media should be opponents of Trump's police state — not collaborators.

With all of the other horrible things about the Cyber Truck there are, one thing I haven’t heard mentioned as much. Since they didn’t curve the panels to shape the body but just have flat separate panels touching each other to make the edge, they rattle loudly, you can hear them a block away.

Today Iran said they won't negotiate with Trump anymore because he's insane and so they'll just wait until 2029 and also he fell asleep in the Oval Office again but the media is too focused on trying to divide Democrats and the Attorney General is a pedo protector and ah fuck we're so cooked chat
