Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October.
Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year.
Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce.
Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.
I propose renaming the "Straight of Hormuz" to the "Straight of Schrödinger."
I'm not sure how @sylvanaquafarms.bsky.social (Farming While Beige) showed up on my YouTube feed, but I'm so glad he did.
I’m a big fan of Georgia’s Dual Enrollment program.
Engineering professor for 25 years here, in complete agreement with you. I loathe the College Board.
Unpopular opinion, esp while teaching at selective enrollment high schools for 25 years: the College Board is a scam. Dual credit offers more access and authentic assessment for students historically excluded from the AP racket. Let’s work on dual credit and include issues with AP in the discussion.
The research shows that offloading intro classes to adjuncts makes it harder to get students to major in your discipline. Allowing AP and high-school dual enrollment classes to provide college credit doubles down on that problem.
I should have clarified that I meant it like “any antisemitism you find in the left is horrible“ not like “there’s a ton of antisemitism on the left”
Indeed, there’s nothing you can find in the left that’s like Trump inviting Nick Fuentes to dinner.
It’s weird how the past year has had me cheering on Harvard and the Pope.
Antisemitism on the Left is horrible, but it’s not been mainstreamed the way it has on the Right.
In the days following Hunyar's post about Flock employees accessing MJCC cameras, Georgia attorney general and gubernatorial candidate, Chris Carr posted on LinkedIn in support of one of the two named employees.
The far right in this country is far far far more extreme than anything you might call far left in this country.
"I'm just contemplating the fact that one moron, one psychotic moron, one capricious idiot, has completely bollocksed up the global economy not only to the detriment of his own people, but the detriment of the planet. ... It's like how much more of this can the planet take?"
The USPS can't "run out of money," the sole question is the people in charge of the federal government believe delivering mail is worth funding the same way they already fund armed kidnapping gangs, concentration camps, and blowing up girls' schools.
You could delete the word “Jew” and you’d have a correct tweet that also isn’t shockingly anti-Semitic.
You know something is on the minds of the people when it ranks higher than the "green poop" question.
Never been happier for TACO Tuesday.
This is simply genocidal language and is a horror in itself.
“The President is just trolling!”
Why would anyone want a president that trolls its citizens and enemies in the middle of a pointless war on Easter Sunday?
That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress beforehand, or our allies, or coherently explain to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.
Reminder that Congress has the power to stop this.
I generally enjoy listening to the Bulwark, but listening to Sarah take Piker completely out of context, over and over, was infuriating. Also, I'm not sure the Democrats should take advice from anyone who suggested Kamala Harris campaigning with Liz Cheney was a in any way a good idea.
Every Christian preacher that supports Donald Trump should have to read this in front of their congregation, verbatim, no censoring, and explain how this is consistent with the teachings of Jesus.
I made this video to advise students using RateMyProfessors to choose what section of a course to take. It can sometimes provide useful information, but you must be aware of the many biases present.
I think the reason AI propagandists are so flustered by the fact that no real writer wants to use their idiotic tools is that they themselves don't enjoy writing. They see it as a boring arduous chore to be avoided, while real writers actually enjoy writing and actually care about the quality of it.
"The story of American education is we teach what's easy to test, not what's important to learn." -- Ted Dintersmith
It's simple: Billionaires want a permanent underclass with no mobility upward. And they're demanding that our politicians get us there, whether that kills hundreds of millions of people or not.
This is the issue of our day.
Maybe DHS realized the No Kings protests are mostly white oeople, which doesn’t fit ICE’s main job of harassing brown-skinned people.
Donald Trump is currently waging an illegal war in Iran using our tax money to kill schoolchildren. At home they're teaching ICE to ignore the Constitution, kidnap kids and use them as bait and torture them in concentration camps. I think no kings matters more than ever
