satire but too funny

Missouri town fires half its city council over data center deal Residents of a St. Louis suburb turned out in droves to unseat four incumbents just days after the council approved a development agreement for a $6 billion data center.

Voters in a small Missouri town, unhappy with the city council’s approval of a $6B data center, ousted all four incumbent council members running for reelection

You know what's really embarrassing about this conflict? Iran has a 90 percent literacy rate while 50 per cent of the US reads at the 6th grade level or below. Iran sent Phds to the ceasefire talks. The US sent realtors.

The president staying up till 3 AM posting memes on social media would be a five alarm fire in any other society

I so wish I had thought of that, dang.

Provide the social safety so that grandmothers don’t have to take multiple jobs to pay for their husbands cancer treatment

“Mind-blowing corruption”

Somebody is making a fortune on the war with inside information and it is grotesquely corrupt.

The SAVE ACT, yeah, the one that Mike Johnson admitted on a hot mic is a VOTER SUPPRESSION BILL!!!!! Just like we said all along. There is NO PROBLEM with voter integrity. There never was. More B.S. and lies from Republicans.

Why don't we just call it "The Save Trump's Ass Act"?

There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash.

ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to.

The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty.

Budgets are moral documents.

The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time.

Impeachment could result in a great savings !

BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiar—far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)

Scientists Discover Way To Reverse Chemical Process Linked With Alzheimer’s Disease By watching Alzheimer’s-related protein clumping unfold second by second, researchers have uncovered new clues about the role of metal ions.

This amazing scientific advance may one day lead to either more effective treatments or dare I say perhaps a cure.
This is why it is vitally important to fund basic scientific research.

This poem reflects on the basic things every child deserves—safety, education, and a normal day at school—and how the world fails when those simple protections disappear. What the World Owes Children A roof. A desk. A teacher who says good morning. A day that arrives without fear. Anything less than that is a failure we should never accept.

This poem is a personal reflection on how heavy the world can feel when you see suffering in the news, and the effort it takes to remember that kindness still exists. A Thought I Had Today Some days the world feels heavier than it should. You read the news, close the screen, and sit there a moment trying to remember that people are still capable of kindness even when history forgets how.

This poem focuses on the quiet ways people help one another, reminding us that even when the world feels broken, ordinary people often step in to care for each other. We’ll Be Okay I’ve seen people pull strangers from rivers. I’ve seen neighbors show up with food when the lights went out. The world breaks things, that much is true— but people have always been very good at putting each other back together.

This poem looks toward the future and reminds us that the world ultimately belongs to the next generation, encouraging hope that they will build something kinder than what came before. What Comes Next The future has always belonged to the children. Not the generals. Not the speeches. Not the maps. One day they will inherit all of this. Let’s hope they build something kinder.

Children in schools should never be an acceptable cost of war.
Resist.

Thinking of the students and teachers at the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls’ primary school.
Resist.

These poems are for them. 💙💙💙

Remember folks…independent reporters in Israel can’t report any strikes on or damage to military or government facilities. It’s a breach of censorship rules and they sign a censorship agreement in order to get a press visa.

Nathan Jun (@nathancjun) on Threads I am not saying this is true because obviously there’s no proof. I am saying that when you follow the personal benefits POTUS stands to receive it makes a strong argument.

Democrats should say that Trump’s attacks on Iran are unconstitutional.

The American people do not want a war in Iran. The Congress did not authorize a war in Iran. It is an entirely illegitimate action that has no legal or constitutional basis. It is the act of a lawless regime.
