Some things are too fantastical to believe and the instant coffee I got smelling and tasting faintly of brown sugar ham is one of those things.

A new Illinois bill would assert that people on bikes are “intended” users of every roadway in the state where it’s legal to ride. 👍 chi.streetsblog.org/2025/02/18/a... @chicritmass.bsky.social @bikeleague.bsky.social @bikegridnow.org @stevevance.net

I guess it makes sense that boomers hate the participation trophies they invented considering they don’t receive any since they don’t participate in society in any meaningful way. With them it’s just all complaints injected into their deteriorating brains by Fox News, which they watch alone.

It amazes me that the US is the only developed nations where taxpayers don’t get healthcare included in the cost of the taxes they pay yet the government decides what healthcare they’re allowed to have…

Has anyone thought ahead to the day when all immigrants have been locked up or deported and all the problems pinned on them still exist? What then?

So now immigration officials can invade churches and schools, presumably targeting Christians and children. Are we finally about to see the Christian persecution Christian’s have been lying about experiencing for the last two decades? Under a Republican president?

The Supreme Court ruled corporations were allowed to donate unlimited amounts to politicians in 2010. It only took them 6 years to take complete control of the government and 15 years to mark sure their voices are the only ones the masses ever hear again.

Are Republicans really good at convincing Americans that the negative effects of their policies are caused by Democrats or Americans just really, really stupid? I fear I already know the answer…

Federal minimum wage and lowest tier ACA healthcare plans for all members of Congress. They can all live in dormitories near the Capitol with shared bathrooms and a dining hall where they have to eat meals together. Time to take away the perks they don’t deserve and force some retirements.

Tolerating intolerance isn’t exercising the lofty ideals of tolerance, it’s intolerance with extra steps. It’s accepting and promulgating horrific ideals and hatred of humanity while claiming to side with the victims. It’s a lie pushed by the intolerant to escape the consequences of their vitriol.

Didn’t get carded at a bar in Dubuque, Iowa last winter because I was wearing a coat appropriate for the temperature outside at the time; I think about that when my neck hurts in the morning.
