Consider the context we live in. We live on a planet among infinite stars, we are burdened by our past while looking to the future, we are limited by our senses and our experience as well as our legacy, while we try to know. I block DMs.

Waiter too. We don’t want to be sexist about this. Also, tip the cook. So many are forgotten in the kitchen toiling away, the producers of the show.

I cannot read the article because I am dropping my WaPo subscription and all I get is a discount offer to resubscribe. This is an example of how Bezos is passively conspiring with Musk.

For someone who worships money the only ones to fear are those with more money. Musk and Putin are in that category.

My favorite. No response from Canada that is now presiding over the G7. I am surprised they didn’t threaten to reduce the group by one. Can’t trust US anymore.

I was recently in your country. Our driver to Auschwitz told us of your defensive buildup. On the British side they can make no such claims. I assume that they are economically stressed because of Russian supported Brexit. Now they have a pipe dream of what the Russian influenced US will do.

It’s becoming clear that Trump is on a mission from God to sharply reduce the population of the world that suffers from overcrowding. But when the Grim Reaper comes, Trump too will have to duck unless he wants his head cut off.

@schumer.senate.gov I would much prefer for you to engage with the enemy in the WH than extoll the talents of a football hero. Senator Schumer we need our country back. And as the sports world would often tell us, “Nice guys finish last.” You are so nice that you look a fool.

Another reason to ❤️ Costco. While Target and others cancel diversity to appease Trump, Costco’s investing in the community—building apartments above its stores, starting in LA. This $425M project includes 184 low-income units, with key services, plus a rooftop pool and fitness center.

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.

All voters need to feel safe going all the way from home to the ballot box. Some reporting says that Hegseth only won because Senators were threatened with violence. The fear of violence is not the basis of democracy.
