Mainstream media isn’t talking about it, but bulldozers and construction crews have descended upon Texas’ Big Bend National Park as the Trump administration moves forward with its border barrier project. The project will permanently damage one of our nation’s greatest natural treasures.
Correct. This is all by design. The rich have wanted this for decades so they don’t have to pay taxes to help anyone because in their eyes we are only valuable as slaves, diseased people, and consumer idiots
Do you ever wonder how they’re going to halve the Earth’s population? They’re going to remove public health protections & let diseases we had previously eradicated surge out of control. They’re going to slash social services. They’re going to kill the vulnerable. Eugenics.

😎🪴🌵 There are alternatives to coal, gas, and oil. And there are alternatives to data centers, but there are no alternatives to clean air and clean drinking water
BREAKING: Senate Republicans blocked Democrats' proposal to end Donald Trump's IRS sweetheart deal. This deal gives him FULL IMMUNITY from audits on tax returns he's filed. It's corruption on steroids.
Wealthy bro dudes like Shopify CEO benefit way more from public infrastructure than we do. Their delivery trucks, trains, and planes use our public roads, waterways/ports, and airports. To make them bank. But we should get no vote compared to them? Nah bro, you should get no vote for freeloading.
it would be cool if cars had some sort of exterior, high-visibility indicator that signals which direction the driver intends to turn. save everyone a lot of stress, I think
Michael Fanone's take on Lindsey Graham is one of the most powerful I've read:
Feeling pretty neutral about Argentina vs Switzerland—guess that means I’m cheering for Switzerland 🇨🇭!!
Their goal is to create so much chaos and so many crises that it starts to feel like nothing you do makes a difference. Don’t believe it. Every action matters. Keep showing up and remember the resistance will prevail!
A cognitively dissolving narcissist fuckface who can't spell the name of the reporter he's terrified of just confirmed, in unhinged all-caps, that the tapes exist and he knows exactly what's on them.
So--the US has made $3.7 billion selling oil that it took from Venezuela...how nice of them to spare $150 million in relief.....🙄
The empty wall tells its own story. Daniel James Jr., Chappie James, deserved better. And at some point, a pattern stops being a coincidence and starts being a statement.
It's time for us to ban stock trading for all members of Congress, for the vice president, and for the president. Period.
They removed CD/DVD drives from PCs. -Made physical media harder to buy and use. -Removed expandable storage from phones. -Pushed us into streaming subscriptions. -Made always-online normal. -Made unlimited internet necessary. -Slowly raised the price of everything. Ownership quietly became renting.
it actually brings me great pleasure to know that billionaires are so afraid of journalists that they’re trying to build whole new systems for justice to diminish our power. despite corporate consolidation, we continue to do something they can’t fully buy and it drives them mad. stay mad, assholes.

The world's first trillionaire received 38 Billion Dollars from the US government. But, no, we won't have enough money to pay for school lunches for your kids. Or give you healthcare. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Watching the A’s and Cubs…love the organ. It’s like a drunk piano and way more fun.
Oh, you can't write a 5-page book report without AI? I fucking wrote 5-page book reports without having read the goddamn book. Get your finger out of your ass.
again, i think many people are still bone-deep convinced of the idea that 2008 was karmic punishment for a housing bubble... instead of just being a fucking policy error by central bankers a mistake which has more than merely historical import
The bill covering breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks recognizes that hunger does not follow a schedule. A child who is food insecure at dinner is the same child fed at lunch. Partial coverage means partial hunger. Universal means universal. The simplicity is the strength.
When all of this is over, when all the tell-all books have been printed, all the trials concluded, all the people with nothing left to fear by speaking up... we're going to find out it's all been so much worse than we ever thought it was. That the whole thing was absolutely and totally awful.
