Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.
This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.
And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?
Twitter objectively has more info, high level intel, geopolitical experts & many others. And it's very white here. I follow a lrg # of Black accts on Twitter, incl many Black women fr pre-election days, & my feed here was the poorer w/out them. Big picture, I don't think being in a bubble is best.
Genius

We are, and always will be, a nation of immigrants.
The CDC is gutting a program that monitors foodborne illnesses. The program will now only track infections caused by two pathogens, rather than eight.
Hello? How does this “Make America Healthy Again”?
true story i used to be one of those red pandas who thought booing was impolite and unsportsmanlike but this administration and its shitty people has completely changed my stance i am all for booing and public shunning of every single one of these fucks tbh
thank u for coming to my TED talk
Yep, a cult has one leader and only one leader. Once Trump is gone then MAGA becomes fragmented & won't blindly accept everything & anything. We'll still have the Project 2025 people & the techno-fascists like Thiel, Musk, Yarvin etc, but there'll be more infighting & MAGA don't like Vance.

70 years ago today, Emmett Till was lynched by white supremacists.
Here in Illinois, we promise to never hide from our history — no matter how painful the chapter.
We honor his memory and his brave mother, Mamie Till-Mobley, by continuing the fight for civil rights and justice.
Yes, and it's intentional. They're *supposed to* break the govt.

If you live in GA., you better make sure you’re still registered to vote. Hundreds of thousands have been taken off the voter rolls, especially young black people. GOTV. ✊💙

We saw all your comments yesterday on our post about celebrity chef and D.C. icon José Andrés, and we agree with you he truly deserves the Nobel Peace Prize! 💚
We’re going to go on a rant for a minute, and yes we’re bringing some history with us. Back in 1755, Benjamin Franklin wrote words that still echo today: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”
Didn't take long to get to this...
Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
If you have time to read just one longer piece today, make it this. Graff is right that the country really is different as of today. We can see serious resistance starting to form—Gov. Pritzker’s speech today was huge—but we have crossed a boundary.
Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"
This is vile. When they say 'deported', what does that exactly look like? Is he a free man when he gets dumped in Uganda (ffs!) or will he be somehow detained/imprisoned? Can we support him to get out of Uganda? He's not a prisoner or convicted of anything here & has done nothing in Uganda. 🤷♀️
Society. doesn't. value. women. This is proven to women daily. So we don't want to hear about any f*cking 'male loneliness epidemic', or to be blamed for women choosing not to get married, or for decreasing birth rates. In the US, pregnant women's #1 cause of death is *homicide*! Let that sink in.

There is a 0% chance AOC can win a general presidential election. Most likely not even a national primary. I like that she's a fighter & while I don't agree with her 100% on everything, at least she doesn't give up. But she'd never win.
You have the best guests! Will be watching this episode asap. Thanks, Jaime!
100% yes to this recommendation. Love that book series so much.
Have you read the Murderbot Diaries series? It's sci-fi but not really like Weir's books (which I love). But absolutely one of my favorite sci-fi series. And the Expanse series is really fantastic, too.
Love that book! Have read it twice and the second time was even better. I'm excited about the movie, too.
