If Russia wants peace, they should end the invasion.

"Economy is slowing. Inflation is up. Markets are spooked. Now we’re going to have this play out in the agricultural sector, which is largely in GOP districts, putting pressure on Republicans who are starting to get weak-kneed." Good @simonwdc.bsky.social points here newrepublic.com/article/1922...

ok, so basically I'm trying to make this post go viral.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

On National Fuck Bezos Day, try using these sources for books, ebooks, and audiobooks: Bookshop.org and Libro.fm. They support your local bookstores and have comparable prices to Bezos’s sweatshop site.

Just saying.

Disgusting display of bullying by BLOTUS and Vance. They were shocked when a true leader fought back. But Putin is pleased with his puppets’ performances. Slava Ukraini! www.independent.co.uk/news/world/e...

1. A kid died-the first US measles death since 2015. 2. An “outbreak,” per CDC, is 3 or more cases. 3. The total number of measles cases for 2024 was 285; as of 21 Feb 2025, the total for 2025 was 93. According to ABC news, that number grew to 124 two days ago- nearly half of the 2024 number.

Bezos bends the knee. Pathetic.

At least now we know what his concept of a plan was.😡

No one is above the law- unless you’re a GOP congressman whose party needs every vote to maintain its tiny majority, and the US Attorney is a corrupt political hack. open.substack.com/pub/statusku...

We are witnessing a historic and frequently illegal dismantling of the government by the richest man in the world. Lets check in on the Congressional committee whose job it is to monitor what is happening in the executive branch:

Federal workers sue over Elon Musk’s threat to fire them if they don’t explain their accomplishments – live This is exactly why BLOTUS and fElon are attacking the judiciary.

Trump names conservative podcaster Dan Bongino as FBI deputy director And Krusty the Clown will be the second in command at HHS. Christ on a bike.

Nothing like a beautiful cat to remind you that, despite everything, there is still grace in the world.

I saw a Substack about “Agent Krasnov” and dug around a bit. I found the original article in The Byline Times, which gets a “high accuracy” for its factual reporting from Media Bias Fact Check. It is chilling and shocking news, but not at all surprising. bylinetimes.com/2025/02/21/d...
