Today's winner of the Internet. Congratulations!

Meta just paid the lowest effective federal tax rate in its history.

Thanks to tax breaks and loopholes, it avoided $13.7B in 2025 federal income taxes.

But now it's planning to lay off 10% of its global workforce (8,000 people) by May 20 — with more job cuts later this year.

Trickle down hoax.

Before they were arrested- Vets are demanding an end to the war on Iran at the Cannon Building in Washington, D.C.

For those who missed it: this was the moment The Strokes ensured they’ll never be invited back to Coachella again! I'm so proud of them

Tesla saved $400 million on its federal taxes by shifting billions of its U.S. profits to countries with lower tax rates.

Yes: While you paid your taxes in full, giant corporations maneuvered to pay as little as possible — and it’s all perfectly legal for them.

The system is rigged.

Today I turn 89. I’ve seen this country at its best and its worst, and I know how much community matters. For my birthday, I’m asking you to stand with PFLAG and support the work that’s helped so many in the LGBTQ+ community, including me. give.pflag.org/page/95493/d...

Fox News beta cuck Sean Hannity: “As of today, I no longer consider myself a Catholic.”

Not only selling out your dignity and integrity but also your eternal afterlife for a man who would push you in front of a bus if you got in his way.

Good work.

A large crowd as always at the weekly march in Tbilisi. Georgians have been protesting in 8+ cities every day for the last 507 days.

Reform losing more than half of its seats when it’s ahead in the polls is an interesting indicator.

The Stiff Records Story - Richard Balls.
Cannot recommend this book enough, especially if you were around at the time. Fully researched with lots of details about the releases and context of the time. A label that subverted the orthodoxy, had some successes and a lot of stiffs

Louise was a feminist, a peace activist and a socialist bold and true A former psychiatric nurse, Louise was a founder member of Faslane Peace Camp, and Dumbarton District Women’s Aid and it was there as a support worker she transformed the lives of so many women and for some women literally saved their lives. Somewhere along the way she found time to be a mother to her to her three amazing weans, and a wonderful granny to her to her three grand weans.

Green MP: Labour caricatures working-class people over greyhound racing Hannah Spencer says minister ‘continuously offends people by saying working-class people don’t care about dogs’

Hannah added: “I get offended when I hear the argument made that it is working class. Working-class people are fed up with gambling companies being able to wreak havoc in people’s lives.”

Absolutely 💯. Gambling, shitty fast food (and shops that sell non-food foodstuffs), vape shops. And advertising hordings for all the above plus alcohol. Ross Greer (@scottishgreens.org MUST notice this- the strange border between Bearsden/Drumchapel makes it VERY noticeable).

$30m an hour: big oil reaping huge war windfall from consumers, analysis finds Exclusive: Climate action blockers including Saudi Arabia, Russia and major fossil fuel firms set to make extra $234bn b

While death and destruction rained down on Iran during the war’s first month, the world’s 100 biggest oil and gas companies brought in an extra $30 million per HOUR in windfall profits.

Yes, $30 million per HOUR.

All because of the deadly and reckless decision making of one man.

Really excellent article/comment. Speaks for so many ignored in the country imo.
