Starting to see comments like, "If Dems don't do [insert pet issue here], they can f__k off!" For goodness take, try to take a broader perspective. Dems have never in all my life done everything I wanted them to do, but they've always been the superior alternative to Repubs. Vote like an adult.

#ResistanceRoots Margaret “Mardy” Murie was born on this day in 1902 in Seattle.

Weird how every time the economy struggles, CEO pay goes up and ordinary workers get shafted by every single entity that already takes our money. Almost as if the whole system is corrupt.

“A single-payer universal health care system could cover every American, save more than 100,000 lives a year, and still cost $1 trillion less than the system it would replace, according to a new preprint study led by researchers at the Yale School of Public Health.” ysph.yale.edu/news-article...

THE BULLDOZERS ARE STILL MOVING INSIDE BIG BEND NATIONAL PARK. DHS and CBP leadership want the American people to believe what they're seeing is simply "surveying and planning." They are lying 🤥

“Woke 1 went too far!” The phrase “stay woke” comes from the movement against police murder of black people 12 years ago and in that time not a single police department was actually defunded nor abolished so idk what the fuck anyone is talking about

Over the last few years, American tech oligarchs have become the greatest argument against their own existence. The sheer scale of their erratic behavior and political interference proves that extreme wealth concentration is a structural threat to society

It looks like the war on Iran is going about as poorly as the regime’s previous wars against Chicago, Minnesota and Los Angeles.

This is *nothing* dignified about wearing a cheap baseball cap that promotes yourself to the otherwise solemn ceremony to receive the bodies of the troops you had killed to distract from your bad economy and rampant pedophilia.

Like clockwork.

MASSIE: “Iran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leader… 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 turned him into a martyr, expended billions, 6 🇺🇸 families must now lay to rest their sons & daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer.”

The boycott of OpenAI(ChatGPT) has now surpassed 4 million. We’re also seeing many small businesses (and even some mid-sized companies) cancel their subscriptions. One of the most amazing things over the past year has been watching consumers remind big corporations just how much power they have.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion. That's roughly $1 billion per day. $41,666,667 per hour. $11,574 per second. People do not want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Priorities.

NEW: The military systems that the U.S. sent to the Iran region in recent weeks ALONE cost us nearly $60 MILLION per day — just a fraction of the cost of this war. That ~$60 million could cover Medicaid for 4 million Americans per day, or SNAP for 9.5 million. From @nationalpriorities.bsky.social:

The Epstein class is making money off this war. The other 99% of Americans are getting screwed out of basically everything.

my most common self criticism when writing, especially after reading really good prose, is God i am not smart enough to be doing this. but you can't listen to that. you have to keep writing your dumbass little story. you have to

It’s so wild that one of the reasons BlueSky is dissed so much is because there are smart people here who write and read books and then they have the gall to talk about what they know from writing and reading books. How dare you.

Gallego: "Young American men and women are dying because of these idiots"

when people point back at Reconstruction to explain where we are as a country (a good impulse) its often to claim that Reconstruction completely failed I'd say it's more like: Reconstruction was partial and compromised, which kept the Civil War going as a domestic political battle vs a won war

You can encourage people to become more civically involved without downplaying the importance of voting. Voting is just one part of it... but it is an important part. So is being active in your community and speaking up for the causes that you believe in. Both matter greatly.

They always have trillions of dollars for illegal wars in the Mideast, but SCOFF in your face and clutch their pearls when you ask for universal healthcare. You are all being played.

I hate how accurate this tweet is.
