Hope you’re paying attention. Being classified as a criminal for being an ethical consumer is absurd and it’s coming and you better start listening when we say yall need to help us push back on this with your whole chest and stop the puritanical bullshit. Forcing us to work third party IS NOT better

Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.

Apparently you must resume avocado toast. Forget what we said earlier about your frivolity being the reason you cant afford to buy a home and do not go thinking restaurants are more expensive than theyve ever been. You must sacrifice for the good of the economy

the vibes in DC are really bad. So many people out of work or on eggshells waiting to hear that they’ll be out of work or sitting idly at their desks because they’ve been explicitly or implicitly told not to do their work, all in the purported name of “government efficiency”

The thing people continue to fail to understand is they don’t care. They’re like the kid throwing spit balls in the back of your biology class and wasn’t even trying. They’re here for the destruction.

It is not too late to push back on the FDA’s attempts to limit vaccine access. Believe me, you want to fight for this even if you think Covid is over. They do not plan to stop here. www.regulations.gov/commenton/FD...

1) If you have had Covid you are at risk. 2) THEY AREN’T FUCKING “BOOSTERS” THEY ARE NEW SHOTS. THE VIRUS MUTATES. 3) They are able to do this because the uptake is already so low. This is not the end game, it’s an opening gambit.

It's weird to me that we keep talking about burnout as an individual thing when it is so clear that something much bigger is going on.

“amid a growing recognition that women’s pain should be treated.” Think about that phrase for a second. This implies that there was a point where it wasn’t being treated.

The bit where Grok started talking about white genocide seemed like a Ha-Ha moment at first bc what a douche but when you realize it means a competent programmer could program an AI to give out whatever disinformation they want & AI is now taking over internet searches it’s more of an Oh Fuck moment

All the "Biden decline cover-up" coverage just seems wild in the context of the current president's obvious decline (which isn't being reported on).

There were some truly lovely moments this week but all in all I have been thoroughly defeated by this week. I surrender to the bs that went down this week and will get back off the mat next week.

arguing against birthright citizenship in front of the supreme court while at the same time pitching a netflix show where immigrants compete for citizenship is such a perfect microcosm of america right now that it feels fake

Just for the record if the person who runs ICE says “hey send us your name and address, we are doing a reality show where we might award US citizenship” please remember that they’re just gonna file you in the “deport now” column.

This kid is 15, and so has a moral clarity and uprightness that no adult elected official would or could ever have. There aren't really and never have been two sides of this issue, but if it has to be argued as a binary thing I don't see how anything less than this could seem like the side to be on.

Seriously it’s bad enough that some several dozen poor children have to have Elon Musk as a father, and you think we want to deny them US citizenship on top of that? The kids didn’t do anything. We’re not evil.
