Remember: If unions didn’t matter, powerful corporations wouldn’t spend millions of dollars every year to stop workers from organizing. Keep up the fight.

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

There's a lot of super shitty bigoted news the past few days, but if you need a little light in your life, four of the most prominent Conservatives have come out against VERY different parts of the BBB, meaning there is a very good chance it is dead in the fucking water.

"Balance in journalism doesn’t mean giving equal weight to truth and lies, it means giving weight proportional to credibility... If one doctor out of a hundred dissents from the consensus, that’s not a “side” deserving 50% of the story. The era of false equivalence needs to end."

Trump and his enablers have no problem with welfare for corporations and the rich. But when it comes to vital programs that help millions, they're suddenly concerned about the deficit. Don't be fooled. They believe in socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

Speaking of ESA, happy 50th anniversary to them! They've made amazing accomplishments in space and on Earth (including building the Hubble camera I used to get my PhD!), and our planet is a better place with them on (and above) it.

very sad to learn about jonathan joss. he was an accomplished actor, of course my favorite was his voiceovers. it's a huge shame he wasnt honored properly for his role in KOTH. john redcorn is one of my favorites, so underrated and added so much to the show. here's some fan art i did many years ago

Louis DeJoy may be gone, but the Post Office is still under attack by corporate interests and privatizers. Millions of Americans rely daily on USPS's affordable rates and universal service. We must protect our public Postal Service.

"For every $100 the US government spent, it put 40¢ in the bucket for NASA. And what do we get for that? ✨The Universe ✨" "One of these bills represents, to scale, the federal budget & the other with NASA’s total budget trimmed off the edges. Can you tell the difference?" @philplait.bsky.social

Happy Pride to All

My fellow Cis-Hets, if you’re looking for a substantive way to help for Pride, consider that not all kids get the parents they deserve and many are turned out on the street when the come out. If you can swing it, consider donating to a local teen shelter to give kids a roof and the love they deserve

Ernst just handed Dems the win on the BBB. All we have to do going forward is press that they are not only acknowledging their bill will kill people, but they're fucking joking about it. That's it. That's the messaging. They're literally selling an "Express Bus to Jesus" and that dog won't hunt.

Psst…those 1950s manufacturing jobs Trump loves so much? They were good jobs because they were UNION jobs. Oh...and taxes on corporations and the rich were much higher. Trump’s agenda won’t bring back the “Golden Age.” It’ll make the rich richer at everyone else's expense.

GOP legislatures in Alaska, Nebraska, and Missouri are trying overturn voter-approved referenda requiring paid sick leave. And in 9 other red states, Republican lawmakers are trying to restrict citizen-led ballot measures altogether. The GOP can't stand the will of the people.

Science denying know-nothing GOPers are trying (and in some cases succeeding) to ban fluoride in water based on anti-science BS. A new study shows a nationwide ban would bring a 7.5% increase in tooth decay and cost almost 10 billion dollars over five years. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

"No tax on tips" isn't a bad idea, but when coupled with Republican plans to make massive cuts to Medicaid and food assistance programs, many service workers who could benefit will fall further behind. What we should really do is get rid of the subminimum wage.

A lot of people know about the Germans in the space program, but the more relevant engineer might be Qian Xuesen, the MIT/CalTech aerospace professor who co-founded JPL and was sent to recruit the Germans. We deported him the 1950s. He became the leader of China’s missile program.

I remember, it was probably in the early 2000's I remember reading on @maddox.xmission.com's site that he used a black background because it was a lot easier on the eyes. That stuck with me, now I get frustrated when an app, website or other stuff doesn't have a dark mode. Ahead of the curve.
