While you’re paying for this Administration’s unauthorized war and watching your costs skyrocket, the Trump family is expanding its business empire and pocketing hundreds of millions of dollars.

All federal wind power R&D at the Department of Energy is $0.137 billion. So the government is paying 7x the amount it spends on all wind power R&D just for a fee to kill one wind project. Seems bad.

We must make both gun manufacturers and chatbot companies accept responsibility for people's use of their products.

It is such magical thinking. This extremely controled and tested substance that "they" tell me to take is clearly bad. This mystery liquid made by who knows is the elixer of life and "they" are trying to keep it from us.

I wanted one of his books as an audiobook while recovering from surgery since his voice is soothing. This was the one the library had available. But I keep not wanting to miss any of the details so haven't been as conducive to napping as i thought.

I'm listening to the crack in the edge of the world right now. Biggest drawback is lack of pictures and maps while Winchester talks through history and geology. Makes me want to to go hiking along some faults.

Or he's just advertising that the minimum bid hasn't been met yet.

There are fewer than a dozen trans people in professional sports. But there are 62 million straight men visiting a “How To Rape” website. Guess which group conservatives are worried about.😡😡😡

Open corruption and theft. Numeric illiteracy means people just won't get how much fucking money he is directly stealing from us.

Incredible level of grift here. Even compared to all the other grift from this regime

Ah so they weren't using trash bags in the cans?

Doooo it!

So what happened? There was a trash strike and??? everyone's trash cans were destroyed? I'm confused how long ago trash strike changes things.

Free market means government protection for businesses against us.

I'd go straight to their tech support. Maybe through your sales rep if you have a good one.

Help out if you can! We need to raise at least $2000 just to have the program this year. Shirts and mixer will be more but I’m just focusing on travel expenses for the time being. #MicroSky #AMR #ASMicrobe 🦠 🧪

Print a few pages out at a time and pen/paper edit?

I've been getting anti union bs mailings for years. Try to remember to send it back (blank/torn up/with message) and cost them an extra few bucks.

Send it back in their paid postage envelope to cost them that little bit.

How is Ankylosaurus not even on the list?

Audiobook recommendations? I've checked out one each from Simon Winchester and Sarah Kendzior both that I generally love listening to. But i can't pay attention to the details so keep having to rewind.

Give me recs for nice, fun, easy to listen books?
