Don’t have a cow man

“American Dream”

Damn.

For the record: The Washington Post can go fuck itself.

Support pro-democracy media that doesn't have its head stuck up Donald Trump's ass. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

I would submit that a gerrymander by politicians saying fuck the voters and one by voters saying fuck the politicians are two wholly different animals

Shocking, truly. This changes everything. US left behind as the world advances into high tech, clean energy future. Because the oil companies own the US gov’t. Six minutes charging time to drive from SF to LA on a single charge!

The implicit media consensus is that urban voters should not be able to overrule rural voters, but that rural voters should be able to overrule urban voters, an assumption so axiomatic and unquestionable that nobody even understands they're making it.

Butlerian Jihad, anyone? 🎾

What the oil and car cos want is for US car culture to be like Cuba’s — trapped by regressive politics in the dinosaur past while the rest of the world advances. Jurassic Car Park.

Genius.

Bullshit. Nazi-occupied DOJ.

Ffs.

Chief Justice’s Wife Made $10M+ as Legal Recruiter: Report At least one of the firms reportedly had a case before Chief Justice Roberts.

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.

Trump is too deranged to continue in office Republicans can no longer deny the depth of the president’s cognitive decline and should act for the good of the party

Has any columnist in the U.S. written like this?www.thetimes.com/comment/columnists/artic...

Why is he doing good things all of the sudden — must be a scam somewhere like beavis and butthead going into the psychedelics business

This time, let ’em go broke. Fuck ‘em.

This is the path to the “big three” going broke again and needing to be bailed out by the US taxpayer again … which we did in exchange for a promise to move to EVs which they welched on as soon as they had Trump in place, which is why they’re bailing on EVs which is why they will go broke again

Properly funding academic research and independent investigative journalism could offer much higher return on investment than $b military hardware. "From data I have observed, some disinformation campaigns appear to be funded in the billions of U.S. dollars, backed by some of the wealthiest people on Earth and some government treasuries. In contrast, our work, which I consider to be among the foundational pillars to preserving global democracy and countering systemic corruption, is relatively funded by governments like it is a grade school bake sale. This must be fixed with urgency. Academics and independent journalists need significant funding to better understand, expose, and inform policy about narrative-led corruption. I hope the discussions in our meetings will help articulate the gravity of the risks we face and the commitment to and quality of work from this community. I hope that this, in turn, can inspire governments and others who value evidence-based policy, collaborative government, and democracy to properly fund this work, while they still have the ability to do so. As some experts will discuss in these meetings, information corruption and cognitive manipulation fuel existential threats. Our work should be considered important enough to fund as if it were part of fundamental societal or sovereign defence. Our work could potentially offer greater societal defence in this moment than some billion-dollar military hardware. In fact, some of our research could inform policy or actions that could reduce the need to deploy the military hardware we have already spent billions on. So, I think there is a high return on investment to properly fund our work."
