I wonder how many people actually have a savings?

big yikes for anyone with a 401k

ECONOMY IN SHAMBLES U.S. job cuts hit 275,240 in March 2025, the highest since the pandemic peak in 2020, surpassing 2001 & 2008 recessions. Layoffs surge as federal cuts, led by DOGE, echo Covid-era losses. It's the third highest monthly total on record.

Go to a protest this weekend if you can!

It’s been a super busy Trans Day of Visibility for me, but I just had to share this story. Please read about this incredible young man, the lead plaintiff in the case challenging Trump’s trans military ban. Lt. Nic Talbott is a remarkable American. www.advocate.com/news/nicolas...

Drone journalist Mahmoud Isleem al-Basos was working on a story about the killing of drone journalists when he was killed by an Israeli airstrike.

The heterodox free speech argument was always a misnomer. They don’t give a flying fuck about freedom of speech. They were upset at things like the idea of trauma victims being able to pursue an education without psychological harm (trigger warnings) and setting their own boundaries (safe spaces)

Great Blue Heron stabbed the hell outta that sunfish(?) #birds #nature

Trump is destroying our economy. If the US fines China’s container ships, I’ll be out of a job. Trump sucks. PS- 9k Honda US workers got fired today. PPS- How are you feeling about your votes now, felon supporters? #ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue www.cnbc.com/amp/2025/03/...

I have a feeling that Tulsi Gabbard will take blame for those men on the signal thread.

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

So many people in my life have stopped shopping at these big corps. We are putting our money where our values align.

Spring helicopter seeds scattered across an apartment lobby. It won't be too long now.

Collins: Do you think someone should be fired over this? Buttigieg: Absolutely… if there’s not accountability for a screw up like this, especially from a president who used to fire people on television for sport, what are we even doing here..

Clowns for sure.

Courage is contagious. More Dem leaders should try it.

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

Listen to Mehdi Hassan’s 2-minute summary of Project 2025 and note how much has already been attempted/implemented. More than 1/3rd of P2025 in 2 months. It’s time to be the sand in the cog. Oppose this fascist regime #Voices4Victory m.youtube.com/watch?v=T_o4...

I refuse to normalize him. I did not vote for him, he does not represent me, and I do not believe he is at all deserving of being here—and so I grieve his ascension and resist his ugliness. I will not comply, bow, or obey. FULL POST: johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/i-do-not-o...

Al Green had the right take on that speech. Nobody should be pretending that any of this shit is normal.

Roy Ayers. RIP

Majority of western Europeans think Trump is threat to peace, survey finds

That’s some serious lip control. I really hope it’s a sign that she’s trying to remember the oath she took and searching for the soul she buried a thousand feet beneath hot lava.

What a photo. Green must be the start of something, not the end.

Half of world’s CO2 emissions come from 36 fossil fuel firms, study shows

I legit just walked outside of my house and asked the aliens to come get me.

If you're an REI member, you can vote to toss out the board that's endorsed Trump's candidate for Dept. of Interior and has worked to stop REI unions. Vote runs until May 2nd. Spread the word. vote.escvote.com/REI/

Every day waking up to this nightmare is just as disturbing as I imagined. Soon these terrible things will snowball & we will begin to see mass chaos. I’m so sorry we are here, my friend. I will stand beside you until my last breath. 🦋💙🦋💙

Worth the watch!!!!

This will genuinely change my life. I might actually ride the bus more instead of biking

It is Women’s History Month. Celebrate! 💙✊️

For years, my org @fightforthefuture.org has begged mainstream LGBTQ orgs to take surveillance seriously as an issue impacting queer and trans folks. Yes, everyone needs to take steps to protect themselves, but we also need the lobbying powerhouses that are supposed to represent us to come correct

It’s great conservatives are coming around on Trump now but why couldn’t they have figured this out BEFORE voting for him a second time? Like???? So glad you don’t like him too now, visit me in the transgender adhd camps let’s talk about it

Maybe it’s my autistic ass, but always liked the winter cold silence outside.. if these were shutting the fuck up it would be perfect
