(1/X) The media spent ten years ignoring Trump's obvious personality disorder. We were told "he's a pragmatist, a businessman". Now they are doing the same thing with Elon Musk....

When Pokemon Go came out I learned how to play it to stay engaged with my pediatric clients- now I just play it because I like it :) My player is ready for the big game tomorrow #GoChiefs

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections. Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

Each year USAID buys 2 billion dollars worth of crops grown by US farmers across the land American food aid comes from American farmers Life saving food is rotting on the docks. Farmers in DC are have lost $340 million in unpaid bills since foreign aid was halted

the world is on fire AND so is my life if you’re able to kick in even $2 I would be so grateful for helping keep our heads above water (and thank you immeasurably to all who have given or shared, I hate doing this I am embarrassed and sorry) ko-fi.com/aprilglick

Imagine being so weak that you're threatened by "End Racism." The NFL, which has majority Black athletes, is apparently...pro racism now?

It’s natural to feel scared or guilty or ashamed, that’s your soul telling you to stay alive and do the right thing. Trump and Musk are moving fast and life will get harder that’s a fact. However, through difficult and terrifying times the best in all of us can shine. Do what you can, don’t give up.

Going to be hard to blame "DEI" if something goes wrong here, but I'm sure the orange emperor will try. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

My current project to help me regulate my stress :) The feel good shawl by Andrea Mowry. Yarn is Madelinetosh Tosk DK. #knitting

Whole Foods workers in Philadelphia just accomplished something huge: they overcame Amazon's union-busting tactics and voted to form the store's first union in over four decades. Remember that we can always find hope in the labor movement.

These are the good guys supporting DEI. Reward them with your business. Costco Meijer Kroger Giant Grocery Ben & Jerry’s Ulta, Macy’s Old Navy Nordstrom’s TJ Maxx GoTo Foods ( Moe’s Southwest Grill, Mcalister’s, Auntie Anne’s, Jamba, Cinnabon…) Dollar Tree Walgreens Wegmans

The threat of ICE has tons of people on high alert, the result is claims of ICE seen without firm or specific info people can actually use — & sometimes, no ICE at all. It’s never “ICE spotted in Queens,” but “4 SUVs labeled DHS seen parked on 57th & 59th in Maspeth at 2:34pm.” Be specific!

Never forget that McConnell could have put an end to this bulls**t four years ago, including a penalty that would have prohibited Trump from ever holding public office again.

The story the media tried to ignore on Inauguration Day is that Trump's rapid mental decline was on full display -- from rambling, slurred digressions about wall building materials to paranoid conspiracy and revenge fantasies And there's 4 years to go.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

You don't do this. No ethical person does this to their vendors and partners. This is the hallmark of a crook. www.wired.com/story/metas-...

When a liberal area suffers a climate change disaster, Republicans say “God is punishing them.” When a conservative area suffers a climate change disaster, Republicans say “Democrats control weather machines.” Must be hard going through life as a full-blown idiot.

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

The combined net worth of America's twelve wealthiest people passed $2 trillion last year. 12 people. $2 trillion. Meanwhile, U.S. homelessness increased 18% in 2024. Our problem isn’t an issue of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding wealth inequality.

The U.S. is 40th in the world in science education last I checked. Of course they import our workforce in mathematics and science. And they have to b/c y’all teach your kids that science is the boogeyman & Jesus fought the dinosaurs for our sins. So of course Elon is fighting to save H1B visas

Louisiana was the first state to introduce this legislation and national outrage is what saved Louisiana women from this fate when they introduced this bill (they had to voluntarily pull it it was so bad). Fight back y’all

Costco responded to shareholders requesting that it withdraw from DEI policies. The response was direct and to the point: Costco says, "Our board has considered this proposal and believes that our commitment to an enterprise rooted in respect & inclusion is appropriate & necessary." ❤️COSTCO♥️

Rolling Stone gets it. #DepartmentOfGreedAndExcess www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Hakeem Jeffries: "Republicans are marching America to a painful government shutdown that will crash the economy and hurt working-class Americans because they would rather enact massive tax cuts for their billionaire donors than fund cancer research for children."
