All that time calling it a Russia hoax and republicans pushing back against the left. Now it’s undeniable and the fuckers are like hell yeah now let’s go after Canada! Like where the fuck have the adults in the GOP gone? Fucking traitors every one of them.

My payroll spreadsheet goes back to 2012. Since then I’ve paid well over $50,000 into Social Security (OASDI) alone. My federal taxes paid are significantly higher. I use an accounting method I learned when I got my assoc degree. I keep very detailed spreadsheets for my payroll & do my own taxes.

I’m so sorry. Your commentary and online activism has been so important. A light in the darkness. I hope you find another platform that treats you what you’re worth! I can’t wait to see what you do next.

It boggles my mind that so many people can be pro Ukraine and anti Russia, but not pro Palestine and anti-IDF. I understand that having an ally in Mideast is vital but the cost to the Palestinian people is horrific. I wholeheartedly support a plan for lasting peace & I hope we see it soon.

What bothers me is how society gives Israel govt a free pass to do whatever they want because of Hamas aggressions, but no one seems to want to hold the IDF accountable for the way they respond. It’s never in kind. It’s always extreme & causes significantly more damage than anything done to Israel.

This. My favorite teacher in college wrote a book on the “Arab-Israeli” conflict and it was one of our segments in a foreign relations course I took. As a military veteran, he unsurprisingly took the side of Israel. I came out on the side of Palestine. This decades old conflict is seriously not OK.

I can’t stand Levy (I haven’t figured out why I just know I don’t like him), but Messier and Subban are great together. They definitely try to go for that TNT vibe but as a whole, I prefer the TNT team more.

Turn that AI crap off. It’s the first thing I did after my initial setup.

They’re beautiful! I have too much silver and I’ve found myself gravitating to gold these days.

Great experts they have there who don’t even know how to remove their metadata from spreadsheets before publishing them.

That’s what all of this is. While the people who voted for this are dumber than rocks, the rest of us aren’t. Doge released a list of all of their “accomplishments“ & they were all important worldwide initiatives. The damage they’re doing is irreparable. I hate what they’re doing. I hate them.
