"How many times do they expect him to play this game before they reopen the Strait of Hormuz?"

That answer's pretty easy.

If youre a UK resident you have a prime opportunity to push back against the Online Safety Act and online surveillance. PLEASE take a moment to fill this out and share it around

Hey, this is worth taking like 60 seconds to fill out. Its not a commitment towards anything, its just to help the Free Speech Coalition gauge interest in such a credit union

Please share this around! This could end up being huge!

do not let this fucking pass I beg of you.

Shit like this makes me wonder if I need to just throw myself into the mines and make my own cultivation novel.

I mean, I'm pretty sure I hate myself enough to do it.

If you'd like to go back to the prosperity of the 1950s, Tax the rich and corporations, as they should be taxed, support Unions for fair wages & vote Liberal.

Hell. No.

the fact that legislators are trying to say that computers are devices that require id verification and tracking to use should put fear into EVERYONE. FIGHT AGAINST THIS.

Ooh ooh do *the entire video game industry* next

Disappointed, though not surprised, I began to describe various life- saving components of USAID’s global health portfolio, highlighting how we prepare for and respond to emerging pandemic threats; support the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis, malaria, and HIV; and immunize millions of children from the deadliest childhood diseases. I spoke for about five minutes, focusing primarily on our infectious diseases work and hoping to keep the attention of people who seemed to have no experience—or interest—in global health. When I finished, the room was silent, the political appointees looking at one another in what appeared to be disbelief. The silence was broken by Ken Jackson, who chuckled softly and shook his head. “Wow, there really is so much that USAID does that we never knew,” he said. “This is the story that needs to get out there.” Joel, also smiling, chimed in next, echoing Jackson’s amazement. “I had no idea you did all this,” he said. “As a Republican, when I think of what USAID does in global health, I assumed it was just, you know, abortions.”

This is NUTS

Burning down a warehouse with NO INJURIES instead of hurting a single soul, clearly stating the motive being the lack of a livable wage, is threatening their way of life?

I feel like they've completely forgotten how workers solved their disputes back in the day. What our "way of life" REALLY was.

The effective federal corporate income tax rate:

1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%

Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.

That is how we will pay for it.

It's all too clear that we can't stop at just outing and prosecuting this entire admin.

We need to revitalize education/infrastructure, close tax loopholes/tax the wealthy, and completely route the group responsible: The GOP and its backers like the Heritage Foundation and Fox "News".

Only people angry at Nazis getting wrecked are Nazis. It's just a fact.

They are so, SO desperate for people to resub. PLEASE don't resub your Nitro everyone. Props if you aren't already subbed, props if you were subbed and you unsub right now. NOTHING changes unless a company FEARS for their bottom line. Feel free to use Discord still, but don't give them a penny. 💖

Fingers crossed! Those guys really need a break.

Every single time, without fail. It's always racist bullshit hidden under "good story" or "graphics".

I saw a post that said:
"American beauty standards are set by middle-aged white men who prefer 12yo girls" and I can't unthink it.
It's 💯 true.

Well, yeah. Standards and rules only matter when they can use it to attack others.

If one of their own, or someone who gave them money and power, did it? They'd form ranks to let that person finish.

Narrator's Note: "But they never learned the moral. They repeatedly ignored it, and continued to wonder why other projects are smash hits."

interesting that when a movie with female protagonists does poorly the response is to cancel upcoming projects with female protagonists and when a movie with female protagonists is a huge hit the response is to cancel upcoming projects with female protagonists

oh man that could have made obscene amounts of money

Okay, cool. I'll believe it holds weight when the DNC actually stops taking said dark money/AIPAC money.

That includes the shell companies they use to hide their involvement as well.

screenshot from linked to essay that reads: What is new is that, starting around 2015—in the wake of increased trans visibility in the media (sometimes called the “transgender tipping point”) and the Supreme Court’s decision in Obergefell legalizing same-sex marriage—social conservatives began shifting their efforts toward targeting trans people instead. The attacks have since grown into a highly coordinated and well–funded movement that churns out both anti-trans and broader anti-LGBTQ legislation at unprecedented levels. This is the real reason why Republicans have become obsessed with “fairness in women’s sports,” “biological sex,” “social contagion,” “restrooms,” “grooming,” and other soundbites that didn’t exist ten or fifteen years ago. In other words, there hasn’t been an organic shift in public opinion on trans people but rather a massive astroturfing campaign against us.

...btw I link to evidence that the anti-trans backlash was a highly coordinated and well–funded (especially via right-wing orgs) movement in this essay: www.bostonreview.net/forum/how-no...
