This is a new image from #JWST. The bright points with spikes are stars in the Milky Way. Everything else is a galaxy. Everything. Else. Is. A. Galaxy.

For too long, America has had an economy

I can’t believe how stupid everything is

If our democracy dies, this is its epitaph

Excited for all the new American banana and coffee factories.

#EconSky www.businessinsider.com/world-riches... Prediction that the Largest U.S. companies will invest in record Stock buybacks and not invest in Manufacturing, More Jobs or U.S. Employees and these billionaires will make it all back and then some by years end.

It’s weird* that the president can just decide to put a huge tax on American businesses without congress even being a little bit involved. * very unconstitutional

Holy shit--the tariffs are working. High-paying manufacturing firms are sprouting all over town. There's a little sapling industrial fabricator blooming in my backyard, offering $95k starting with a high school diploma. It looks so precious, glittering amongst the dew. The madman actually did it.

imagine voting for an administration of television personalities. no experts. just reality tv, wresting, and fox clowns. 🤡

We will not be distracted. We will not be discouraged. We’ve got our eyes on the prize. And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve. The time to organize is now. OcasioCortez.com

Timeline cleanse 🌞

imagine explaining to someone in 2016 that Bill Kristol had united in a AOC/Bernie popular front against fascism

“I’m doing good things,” I tell myself as I delete the military service of a dead woman. “I’m still a good person.”

Laughing at this update on Paul Weiss. I prefer my lawyers not be gullible quislings thank you.

This is really the whole ball game right now, *particularly* among the institutions that make up civil society. (my parents definitely had this poster when I was growing up)

“If empathy is a sin, sin boldly.”

they say "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" well i don't want to be strong, i’m tired i just want to drink iced coffee, read books and eat snacks.

the tesla protest might objectively be among the most successful in history already just in terms of immediate response, if you consider they forced the world’s most powerful person & its most wealthy to fully degrade themselves like used car salesmen on live TV while the whole world watched agog.

listening to “enter the wu-tang” and one think i like about this record — especially as i’ve gotten older — is how *charming* it is. it feels like a garage rock record and in a lot of ways that’s exactly what it is. it’s lo-fi, energetic and brimming with enthusiasm.

Ok I know this is old-man irritability but I don’t care if Mahmoud Khalil has a pregnant wife, I don’t care if he and his wife are childfree, I don’t care if he’s in a fucking polycule with a hedgehog and a jar of mayonnaise, NOBODY should be detained for protected speech, including singletons.

The truth is, not everybody is suited for liberty or democracy. Some people were born with a silver boot in their mouths. Some people have the souls of subjects.

As with Orwell, there's a reason people are constantly quoting and referencing this. www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/43290/...

Remember: If unions didn’t matter, powerful corporations wouldn’t spend millions of dollars every year to stop them from forming. Keep up the fight.

Tariffs are the new infrastructure week

It’s weird everyone thinks tariffs are so terrible for the economy. If something can only be in effect 72 hours how bad can it be

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

Ending the night with this. *Get your hankies* A D-Day veteran called a gracious and humbled Zelenskyy a hero.

Slava Ukraini! We’re with you.

Stand with Ukraine. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

Democracies stand with Ukraine.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.

i still love drake. and think it’s lame you’re piling on. some real gen z, garbage energy.

Tomorrow in the NYT: Nothing emphasizes the elderly and out-of-touch character of Democratic Party leadership than their reluctance to allow a new generation of white nationalist 19-year-olds to have access to everyone's tax records
