Remember when Donald Trump would rant about the Democrats letting our ammo stocks get too low, and the entire GOP parroted him? Now, of course, crickets from that whole bunch. Yeah. Good times.

Seth Abramson@sethabramson.bsky.social · 2mo agoDo not doubt that if a major pandemic hits, millions of Americans will die because of this grotesque man. *Millions*. And not a single person in America better say that we didn’t know it was coming. The alarm bells have been ringing non-stop that this sick buffoon is going to kill innocent people.
Huge. These oligarchs aren’t going to get to vacuum up all of our retirement funds just to prop up insane P/E ratios.

This is the problem: if she lives, the law worked fine. If she dies, her doctor is at fault. No accountability for politicians. Ever.
ProPublica@propublica.org · 2mo ago1/ At 17 weeks pregnant, Emily Waldorf was suddenly faced with a life-threatening situation: Her baby’s foot was dipping out of her cervix. Doctors told her the longer her cervix stayed open, the higher her risk of infection. They knew how to treat her. There was one issue … 🧵

Everyone sees it. US car prices are out of control. Average new car? $49,000. Monthly payments? Record highs. People aren’t “pro‑China” — they’re anti‑getting‑fleeced. www.coxautoinc.com/insights/apr... (1/10)

I’m actually wondering if this Iran war idiocy is the final nail in the coffin of the oil economy. Sure, there’s also going to be sulfur and fertilizer shortages, but nobody wants to be grabbed by the throat by big oil every 10-20 years. Price-competitive green energy exists and will dominate.
Most people don’t know what’s in a cognitive test, and ambiguity benefits Trump. So, every time Trump goes off on how amazing he is at cognitive tests, just imagine he’s saying “first grade reading exam.” This will highlight just how absurd he is being as he’s bragging about his “record scores.”

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.
Dear America— You could have had this: sanity, calm and faith. Instead, you chose war crimes, lies, vileness, vindictiveness, graft and economic collapse. You chose a “Christian” who drops F-bombs on holidays. What’s worse is that 34% of you would choose this again. To those people: You Suck. —R
