there are going to be people who say, take a wait and see approach to how the Court will treat the next Dem president
and those people are wrong, we know exactly how they will treat that person and it is the polar opposite of how they treat Trump

"The coolest thing about solar energy is that you don't need to invade another country to get it.
Solar power is democratic, abundant, and borderless. No pipelines. No tankers. No resource wars. Just the sun shining on everyone.

What do Levi’s, Hanes, and Chewy have in common?
California AG Rob Bonta just revealed evidence alleging that Amazon used its power to pressure them, and countless other brands, to inflate prices of listings on rival online marketplaces as part of wide-ranging price-fixing scheme.
Call me Cassandra, but if you make thousands of HEI staff either compulsorily or 'voluntarily' redundant and create conditions in which senior staff take early retirement in an attempt to save more junior colleagues' careers without significant new hiring, a critical loss is exactly what happens.

He uses white supremacist ideas to prove there's no white supremacism:
"Their {White's} country and their culture is being decimated in regard to open borders. We're changing this country radically and culturally in a way that make {WHITE} Americans uncomfortable."
I encourage *everyone* on my skyline to read this excerpt. 🥚
the way this makes sense for RFK is that "healthy people" and "sick people" are ontological categories.
we don't see the stars as they are. we see them as they were billions of years ago when their light left their coronas and travelled the billions of light years it took to get to us, like old photographs. because light has a speed, all perception is of the past, which is why, officer, i didn't see t
PSA for neurotypical folks:
there is a difference btw a reason vs an excuse.
When you ask me why I did something, and I give you a response to your question, I’m giving you a reason! It is not an excuse!

This is an incoherent vision of politics and political economy, the Louvre is a public institution, you are literally stealing from The People
I really wonder how this is gonna work out. never before have I seen members of a presidential administration lying about current financial conditions like this. especially given they were put in place to lower prices. crazy shit
It just keeps repeating, doesn't it. Quite frustrating.
i've seen "it would really stick it to the devs if we left bsky" posts & no it wouldn't. they want this web site to be boring crypto idiots who cool their phones off in pools chatting with AI reply bots. instead they have to put up with us and that's deeply funny
Too close to reality right now 🤦🏾♀️
Currently living with a level of stress that feels like a sober version of the DTs & it’s absolutely woeful 🤯🥺

Ireland has a €9 billion surplus - but instead of this we're encouraging people to build, without planning required, rental chalets in their back garden with zero rights for tenants but tax breaks for those homeowners #spéirghorm
152 million people of all ages in the U.S. live in a county that fails to meet safe levels of smog or particle pollution.

(my actual factual opinion on AI is going to remain: you don't get to steal other people's work and then charge for it, you skeezy ass motherfuckers.
since I don't have time to deep dive every single model to see if they trained it ethically, I opt out until we've resolved this situation.)
i have to underline the reason WHY people think crime is high is because there's a massive propaganda machine dedicated to making them think that.
Flu vaccines aren’t about “freedom.” They’re about keeping troops healthy enough to do their jobs.
My hope is that someday, hundreds of years from now, the cautionary tale taken from the fall of the American empire is that you shouldn’t put the stupidest people on earth in charge.
If someone thinks they might be trans, I think our duty is to welcome them with open arms and help them in their journeys no matter where it leads.
Judging people who think they might be trans and subjecting their motives to intense scrutiny HARMS TRANS PEOPLE. It’s really that simple.
The conservative intelligentsia is just wildly, cartoonistly racist, and the fact that this gets less elite pushback from the prestige media/commentariat than "woke" does is such a damning indictment of our whole society.
Today I turn 89. I’ve seen this country at its best and its worst, and I know how much community matters. For my birthday, I’m asking you to stand with PFLAG and support the work that’s helped so many in the LGBTQ+ community, including me. give.pflag.org/page/95493/d...
Infowars/Onion combo logo in rainbow saying “I support the onion’s hostile media takeover.”
It’s finally happened. After 18 months. Finally, a media merger you can root for.
3-panel comic. (1) (A person with a picture of a spacecraft behind head.] PERSON 1: There are now three spacecraft headed to Europe: NASA’s *Europa Clipper*, which will investigate Europa’s subsurface ocean, (2) [Person is gesturing at a picture of a different spacecraft while talking to a person with a ponytail and a person with short hair.] PERSON 1: ESA’s *Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer*, which will study the topography and chemistry of Europa and the other moons, (3) [Person with a picture behind head of a Zamboni with a rocket launcher underneath] and the NHL’s *Zamboni Voyager*, which plans to resurface Europa. PERSON FROM OFF-PANEL: Oh no. PERSON 1: We tried to stop them, but the league is set on an expansion.

The Infowars news is funny, yes. But more importantly, it is an outright rebuke of Alex Jones' evil.
It's testament to the strength and resilience of the Sandy Hook families who survived this bullshit for more than a decade as well as the Onion, which didn't give up on this for the last 18 months.
I’ve been going to WDW literally my entire life, and it always rains because it’s Florida, and I just shrugged and took it as an inconvenience.
But the last couple of times I’ve gone, I’ve finally realized they should be ashamed of taking people’s money & not even giving them a dry place to sit.
I heard a similar comment about Epic Universe yesterday.
Anyone who works in theme park operations and even *advocates* removing seating and shade, much less executes on it, deserves to have severe intestinal cramps forever.
"The average IQ in Somalia hovers around 70, and that's the threshold for mentally handicapped ... they're a net drain on the society" -- even by MAGA standards, the unvarnished racism of this interview of Rep. Brandon Gill by Benny Johnson is breathtaking
