Trump's budget: We're cutting your health care and cancer cures to pay to deport your nurse assistant and cancer researcher.

Be careful! “They seem to be targeting rescues and shelters right now across the country,” https://www.abcactionnews.com/news/region-polk/beware-scammers-using-venmo-to-target-polk-county-animal-rescues

I remember saying many times that Biden was getting a lot of good things done, but Americans, being Americans, just sighed, never really tried to get the word out. Now, Trump is taking all those good things away and suddenly it's news, people are freaking out. Funny how that works.

#3GoodThings 1. We had a good turnout for May Day rally/protest today. 2. Local news coverage of it was very good. 3. I chose not to go; I work third shift so I had to sleep at the time of the rally. Self care won today.

Canada looked at America, and thought "fuck THAT!"

Last week we were reminded of the liberation of the Nazi extermination camps. Gaza also ran out of food, with all supply blocked by Israel: its status, if you were still in doubt, is now 'extermination camp'. #NeverAgain means nobody ever. Not Jews or Palestinians, not anyone. The difference […]

#3GoodThings 1. I drove 35 minutes to attend a mandatory five-hour training but it was cancelled 🤦🏼‍♂️ 2. So I used the time to go grocery shopping, have lunch at Max and Erma's, and stop for a milkshake at a local ice cream shop 🥤 3. And finally, I stopped to use a gift card at a local indie […]

Make sure you have any meds you and your family rely on on hand as much as possible; shortages are coming. #USpol #shortages #shipping #trade #TrumpTariffs

John Cleese-- The Trump administration is now engaged in a life-or-death struggle with reality The smart money is on reality

People are, reasonably enough, upset that Trump fell asleep during the Pope's funeral. But having him fall asleep during major events with other world leaders is probably less damaging than whatever he might have done if he had been awake.

Let's join the United States! - where the infant mortality rate is double ours - dead babies are weak babies - where there is no food safety - salmonella and e. coli are all natural and will make us strong - where pandemics and epidemics are God's will and we obey Him - where women talk in […]

Trump supporter: The federal government is wasteful. Trump is doing the right thing by cutting costs. Random Trump DOGE guy: give me your wallet. I'm taking your money, medicare and social security card. I'm also shutting down your local health clinic and VA's a shell of what it once was and […]

Link to Kansas City Mayor Lucas' news release - The lawsuit, led by Harris County Attorney Christian Menafee, seeks to restore federal grant programs supporting vaccinations, disease tracking, and public health staffing. Though funded through pandemic-related legislation, Congress never tied […]

“Maybe they’ll find it as they move to indict her. Or maybe this case will blow up in spectacular fashion. But until they actually look for evidence of corrupt intent, this is a media campaign against the judiciary, not a criminal prosecution.”

I just said goodbye to my talented, empathetic, BRILLIANT Chinese co-worker 😢 because of trump's detention and deportation policies. We are losing talented people because of the very IGNORANT donald. I hate him with a passion. Oops, if you don't hear from me for a while, his Gestapo has […]

driftglass has the story. The Food and Drug Administration is suspending food safety checks as part of the Trump/Musk slashes in personnel. I recall the Bush administration tried making food inspections voluntary. As a result the Peanut Corporation of America sent out contaminated peanut butter […]

Remember the press saying that Biden was too old, low energy, sick, to deserve a second term? Then george clooney & celeb goons jumping in, and demanding he step down in the middle of his election run? Don't hear any of those same ppl demanding chump step […] [Original post on mammut.sch.moe]

If you are in Ontario, in the Carelton riding.... Bruce Fanjoy is neck and neck with Poilievre! If you don't want the trash-talking Conservative politician to be our next PM, get out on Monday and vote for Fanjoy 😀 And, if you are like me, you will get some joy out of Poilievre losing his own […]

Dear Canada You are going to be given every excuse not to vote. You'll be told there is already record turn out. You'll be told, the polls already favor the conservatives, losing. You will be told, that exit polls favor someone else. You may even be told, that it looks like someone else has […]

It's almost midnight here, so here are my #3GoodThings for today: 1. I didn't scream at anyone at work today. 2. I also didn't send an email today that I would be sure to regret. 3. I also didn't quit my job angrily. Patience, grasshopper.

#caturday shall continue until morale improves.

BETTER idea: Canada is ALREADY ruled by the British Monarchy; so the Empire should be re-established with it's capital in Ottawa, London and the UK as dominions, and Canada gets the nuclear launch codes. King Chuckles can keep Buckingham Palace as a winter residence but move to Ottawa for […]

Gonna blow my own horn here: I was volunteering at a recycling center in 1970. I was at the first Earth Day. I've been campaigning and organizing since the 1980s. Led protests, did radio and TV interviews. I was one of the millions who demonstrated against GWB's Iraq war before he started it […]

It’s #STFUfriday! When cops ask you questions, ask for a lawyer and then STFU: - I am not discussing how I’m doing or where I’m going. - Am I free to leave? - I am not answering any questions. - If they ask to search anything: "I do not consent to a search." […] [Original post on esq.social]

As markets staggered again, #Trump claimed the #China tariffs may soon drop due to secret trade negotiations that he can not publicly reveal. Chinese govt replied there’s absolutely nothing happening and no meetings have even been held.

“This is, to us, an unprecedented opportunity,” George Zoley, executive chairman of the GEO Group, said during an earnings call shortly after the election. During a CoreCivic earnings call, CEO Damon Hininger said: “This is truly one of the most exciting periods in my career with the company.” […]

In the midst of sadness and fear, there's also good. #3GoodThings 1. I found ants in my living room. They were clustered around a big crumb and they were working together very hard to move it. 2. I took video of them moving the crumb. They were magnificent. 3. I left them alone, and some […]

I'm losing a talented co-worker because of Trump. My co-worker is a brilliant and caring Chinese man. He speaks and writes English better than a lot of native-born Americans. He's here legally, but out of an abundance of caution he's leaving America next week. It's very sad. He's […]
