Men can choose to be adults instead of enduring adolescents. If women weren't still slut-shamed for exercising the same sexual liberty men enjoy, a bunch of single men who know how to act wouldn't have that worry anyway and could just jump on an app.
people love to post about how "you're not gonna like it when there's millions of unmarried aimless young men" and like Japan and Korea have been running this field experiment for years and they're mostly just playing video games and jerking off
Except that the whole planet hangs in the balance this time, and we don't have time to waste while a couple generations go by figuring it out.
Things like this, in addition to his history with #trans folks and #homeless folks, are why I see a run-of-the-mill estab(D) when I look at him. He doesn't really want a way for us all to do better. He wants to go back to pre-Trump times. We're not going back.
The California Democratic Party has officially endorsed a one-time, 5% wealth tax on billionaires that will be on the ballot this November. They're right to support it โ and Gavin Newsom is wrong to oppose it. Here's why.
Frances Perkins was the patron saint of American workers and an inspiration for me during my time as labor secretary. She was the guiding light behind the creation of Social Security, the 40-hour workweek, the National Labor Relations Act, and much more.
Today's Prospect Patriot is Frances Perkins. She saw the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory go ablaze in 1911 and her life changed. "The New Deal was born that day," she said. 22 years later she'd be America's first female cabinet member. prospect.org/2026/08/04/a...
It'll take court cases before anyone starts making laws about the burden of responsibility for those who use #Ai to commit crimes. If we don't give the hammer credit for building a house, we don't blame crimes on Ai.
I look forward to the first prosecution of the creators of such AI agents. Careless people donโt change behavior unless there are real consequences.
This administration is on childish levels of, "What's this button do?" A whole planeful of folks died because Kegsbreath's too busy being a frat boy to be bothered with safety protocols.
A civilian medical plane went down after an experimental US military GPS jamming test reportedly disrupted its radar. Every person aboard lost their life. www.yahoo.com/news/us/arti...
In other words, there was a missed opportunity to be done with this presidency early. Other than that, there's nothing to see here.
The presidential helicopter was involved in a so-called โloss of standard separation,โ which requires aircraft to be at least 1.5 miles horizontally and 500 feet vertically away.
I maintain that the way they've come for our #food, #housing, and #healthcare, they're trying to kill off all the folks they think don't have a right to life, liberty, and agency. Don't let them tell you #abortion bans are about protecting life. They can't be bothered to protect the already living.
RFK Jr's CDC reportedly scaled back foodborne disease tracking last year, removing cyclospora from mandatory reporting. The CDC also lost roughly 3,000 employees since 2025. Now a cyclosporiasis outbreak has killed 2 and sickened thousands across 45 states. "Make America Healthy Again."
Feel free to join the #TaxStrike already in progress by writing "exempt" on your W-4. If you don't like what the government's doing with your money, stop funding it.
Why do we bother obeying the law and paying our taxes when the President does neither? He is playing us all for fools!
If you want your agency back in this nation, this is how you do it. #UniversalBasicIncome #UBI is something we all need as machines replace jobs and the wealthy who profit from that manipulate the system.
A simple way to think about basic income. Wealth transfer is also a transfer of power.
And #AIPAC can keep losing to the #DSA. We're done with this bs where estab(D)s want to use blatant (R) #corruption as a smokescreen for their own. We see through it, and we're tossing out the old guard.
AIPAC LOSES
The Drumpf family are the biggest losers. We've had a lot of criminals run through our government, and this lot is by far the most brazen and talentless set to do it yet.
Eric Trump has spent four years insisting Capital One owed his family an explanation. He finally got one. It's not going great. ๐ www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/twelve-day...
Don't go looking too closely at #Christianity if you intend to be a believer. Once you start poking around, the cracks really show.
When we show up, it doesn't matter how much money they dump, and right now, more folks are motivated than we've seen in a long time. Take advantage of the opportunity to group up while we still have it. #Vote!
Big money spent $70 million to try and defeat Abdul El-Sayed and it didn't work! POWER TO THE PEOPLE!
It's clear at this point that anyone who denies #GlobalWarming just wants to watch the world burn.
That sounds hot. Is it hot?
If you think you see someone doing anything to sabotage a data center, it's STFU Friday.
Remember, if you see someone stealing copper from a data center, no you didn't. youtu.be/xCzkSyAAf4M?...
Happy birthday, @barackobama.bsky.social! You look great in a tan suit.
Happy birthday to an actual President, Barack Obama. ๐
It's not that it didn't break through here. It's been quiet because it's one more line item on a growing list of ways Drumpf is grifting from the Oval Office.
Is it me or did the Capital One affair not really break through On Here Another day, another scandal that would have tanked basically any other presidency
Someone who can afford drones needs to begin Operation Egg Drop.
It will never not be funny that a handful of morons spent six figures on this thing ๏ฟผ
#CBS / #Paramount / #Skydance can say what they want. Timing my ass. #Weiss is a regime flunky out for profit at the expense of a fair and #FreePress. These people are more transparent than cartoon villains.
A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss. Same editor who stalled the CECOT migrant story until Stephen Miller got a say. CBS keeps calling it timing. Sure looks like a pattern.
Good. If @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social has any good ideas, I'd love to see them executed. Ofc, we've known since he and @booker.senate.gov dropped the ball in the first quarter of last year that they're only here to self-enrich on the sly.
Rep. Ayanna Pressley has once again broken ranks with House Democratic leadership over endorsements, this time to support former Missouri Rep. Cori Bush. Pressleyโs endorsement sets her squarely against the establishment wing of the party.
Once more, Drumpf's redistributing resources away from the already impoverished to those who already have too much. #Boycott them!!!
Did you see how Apple, Amazon Walmart and other big companies are refunding the billions of dollars they got back from the federal tariff settlement to their customers, who ultimately bore the cost of higher prices? Yea, me neither.
Our thoroughly corrupt electoral system.
RFKJr claims Lyme disease was created by scientists,which is the closest heโs come to admitting that science exists. Meanwhile, รtzi 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
Microsoft: $101 BILLION in profits. $12.5 BILLION in tax breaks. $176 BILLION in stock buybacks. 4,800 workers fired this week. 9,000 workers fired last year. Please don't tell me trickle-down economics works. It never did. Nothing trickles down.
I mean, these are the same folks who laugh at #veterans and dead troops when they think no one's listening, so are we surprised at the disrespect involved in lying about #Covid right in our faces? They have neither love nor respect for this country or those who actually serve it.
Let me see if I have this right: All the people we put in body bags and refer trucks All of us who worked in the ER and FULL icus All of the dead we cried over This was all fake? Sure pal.
They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.
