Ed Cote * Leftists and liberals are very different things.

The problem is capitalism. People shouldn't have to work 3 jobs just to survive. Nothing should be sold for profit if its absence can kill you. Liberals and conservatives both suck but nothing is worse than a fascist. A better world is possible.

El-Sayed: "My commitment to Jewish safety is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. Because if there is one question of political philosophy that ought to animate us all, it's what would we do if we treated all our kids like they were all of our kids?"

RFKJr claims Lyme disease was created by scientists,which is the closest he’s come to admitting that science exists. Meanwhile, Ötzi the Iceman, who died more than 5.3K years ago, had Lyme disease. Apparently prehistoric humans are part of the conspiracy. Get me off this timeline

If it wasn’t for truck drivers, we’d starve. If it wasn’t for sanitation workers, we’d be overrun by rats and disease. If it wasn’t for construction workers, we wouldn’t have roads and the economy would collapse. Just because a job isn’t glorious doesn’t mean it’s not existentially important.

I made dinner for a man who abused me more times than I can count thinking I could fix things. It never stopped the abuse. It created the expectation that he could do whatever he wanted and then be fed. Max Miller is trash. If the GOP won’t say it, I will.

my neighborhood 7-11 closed a couple years ago and tried to reopen but couldn’t get the permit approved because there’s a preschool next door and 7-11s sell alcohol (the previous permit was grandfathered in). i saw a fence going up around the lot recently and looked up what was moving in: a gun shop

If I tell a blind man that it's safe to cross the street when I can see a bus is coming & he is killed, I will be arrested, & rightfully so. If I tell an ignorant man not to get vaccinated because vaccines are deadly, & they die of a preventable disease, I'm not arrested. What's the distinction?

When enough rain falls in Maltahöhe, Namibia, millions of desert lilies bloom across the landscape for just a few days each year. This natural phenomenon briefly transforms the arid desert into a sea of flowers almost overnight. IG: @ earthpix
