Sorry but this is objectively funny

RFK Jr. wants tens or maybe even hundreds of millions of Americans to die because he considers them genetically inferior, and I just want to be clear that's not a good plan. For, you know, a number of reasons.

The CIA has been running drugs since the Vietnam War.

My seedlings are pretty stoked. I personally am cocooning.

Glad I got that solar panel for just this occasion

I got super excited when I was camping this weekend and watching a crane fly over the lake through my binoculars and then it took a piss midair. It was AWESOME! 🪶

It's still going.

We get a lot of shit bc the Gulf Coast isn't like the other two coasts. But growing up in Corpus was special. The beach was accessible to everyone.

I was so offended for the people in Boca Chica.

Now he's ruined Austin where I live, and he's gonna ruin my hometown beach too.

I don't believe the industry can or wd destroy the city. What're they going to do, re-site multi-billion dollar oil refineries? I don't buy that for a second. Just raise their rates.

Abbott keeps siting even more industrial water hogs there, too; I blame the state more than the city.

As Contract Negotiations Drag On, Texas Starbucks Workers Have Learned the Power of Organizing “We have an in everywhere. It's not hard to talk to other people that do the same thing that you do on a daily basis, and oftentimes they have the same grievances that you do."

573 baristas in 29 Starbucks stores in Texas are unionized. And it’s growing. @sbworkersunited.org

Industrial use ~55% of the water, residential and commercial 45%. Charge industrials the same as you do for homeowners, and you pay for your desalinization plant, or whatever the right solution is.

Plenty of water for the refineries in Nueces County -- which are driving all the shortages -- but residents are being told to shower less and farmers are "planting crops that may never grow."

Yes, she blames city officials, which she should, AND sees that the industry can destroy the city, and still thinks it's an acceptable tradeoff.

Here’s my position on whether you buy my book from Amazon.

I would strongly prefer you don’t! First of all, the price on Bookshop is exactly the same right now (mod shipping). Libro will give you the same audio and ownership of the files! Kobo ebooks and readers are great!

Part One: How Jeffrey Epstein Helped Build the Modern World - Behind the Bastards | iHeart <p>Robert begins to explore the new Epstein files with Andrew Ti and unveils a conspiracy that crosses cryptocurrency, right-wing political power and, believe it or not, video game micro transactions....

And then Epstein did a lot of 4chan gamergate shit around that time to start a war for impunity.

6 part series about how Epstein created the modern world or some shit

I feel like all these Epstein revelations were new info in 2012- 14ish.

Most important summer of our lives is right around the corner.

They fucking break upon US for real.

I guess I'm more excited about the summer possibilities, from people not willing to wait until November. And not willing to put their trust in Congress to do anything at all.

They'll impeach him, the Senate won't convict, he'll die of the stress soon after, now we're ruled by Palantir

Strikes and boycotts, sustained protest, occupation of public spaces, etc. Real disruption, not necessarily violence, is more possible with those poll numbers.

That is hopeful, though.

I don't want to be negative. Too early for that. 🌈

I used to get excited about GWB poll numbers too. Absolutely nothing materially changed. Cheney was on a speedrun in Iraq. Capitalists were on a speedrun on Wall Street.

Whoever is driving various policies atm is not giving a fuck what polls say. It's looting time.

This sounds way better than Sweet Magnolias

She won't defend Trump to me, avoids the topic, lies about voting, and then got drunk and threw it at me that she voted for him in 2020. Not in '16. In 2020.

We are at an impasse. And I've got a nibling on the way in July.

Weird, but I gotta sidestep my matriarch.

Airing my mommy issues on bsky this morning I guess.

Silver lining, she was too young to instill this in me, being a teen mom. I got my values and worldview from Sesame Street and Joe Strummer.

Big Bird would never work for the clampdown.

It's so bad. She's not dumb and she's not religious and she is an empowered woman with agency. Just pure fanaticism for capitalism and status.

She's got 2 fucking copies of Gatsby on her bookshelf. Turned into Daisy.

I'm pretty sure I've posted about this at some point. Maybe on Twitter? Idk

I'm getting old and my loved ones are often reminding me I've already told that story before.

At least it was a story about banging! 😁

My GOP mom, still living in Corpus, running out of water, considering moving: Well, what are you gonna DO???? You can't shut down oil & gas globally just because one city is dying!!!!

Like, it's not just one city. You're just the first to die.

Sorry, I know this is about rain. 😭

This is the opposite of what's cool about weed.
