Time to rebrand #universalbasicincome? #UBI isn’t economics — it’s a consciousness revolution medium.com/@cauri/ubi-i...

Cancelling public funding for community violence intervention groups to help offset tax cuts for billionaires is 100% on brand for these soulless r@tf#ck@rs. 🤬 #kakistocracy

The 73-page report focuses on nutrition and physical activity while ignoring firearms as top killer of children

#Norm might be in for a major disappointment if the legendary polka song "In Heaven there is no Beer" has any basis in fact. RIP and Cheers to the late great #GeorgeWendt 🍻

More Trouble Every Day.

Trump admin agrees to pay $5M to the family of #AshliBabbitt (She was fatally shot by police when she tried to storm the House Speaker’s Lobby during the #Jan6 attack on the Capitol). 💩 (gift link: wapo.st/4jcwiUe)

Smells like money laundering to me. $300M spent on Trump's #cryptocurrency by a small company with zero sources of revenue. Untraceable and no one can get facts on these side deals. WTAF? No doubt the FBI is looking the other way, or their "leaders" are in on the grift. 🤬 youtu.be/fcrrIhYn-Og?...

If members of the WH Press Corp don’t ask this question RELENTLESSLY they should turn in their badges.

Celebrating Mother's Day ❤️

Well said!! 👏

Genocide is seldom taught to students and when it is, the oppressors are in some faraway land from long ago. Education is power which is why public schools are chronically underfunded. Join a book club to learn about the cruelty that targeted the Native Americans at every turn. It's heartbreaking.

Protect #Americorp Please! It supports our communities in so many ways!!!

American consumers are about to get an abrupt and unexpected lesson in minimalism. Ready or not.

Show me one dad able to refrain from making bad #maythe4th puns today. I'll wait. (w/ apologies to @markhamillofficial.bsky.social 😉

🌵🌵 Timeline cleanser: #Bloomscrolling > #Doomscrolling 🌵🌵 Springtime #cacti blossoms. #Ferocactus genus = large barrel-shaped cacti, mostly w/ large spines and brilliant flowers. There are about 30 species included in the genus. This one is putting on a show in my front yard. #Cactus #Photography

Will #insurance companies share the savings by reducing premiums as net costs for #healthcare decline, after factoring in #GLP1 costs? #diabetes #wegovy #ozempic #mounjaro #zepbound #semaglutide #tirzepatide www.cnbc.com/2025/04/30/g...

Scored my #EDC unicorn this week. #TomBihn Synapse 19. 🤠 IYKYK

Jeff Bezos is a decidedly unfit owner for the Washington Post if this is all it takes to get him to fold. Profile in non courage. www.cnbc.com/2025/04/29/w...

Ha! I absolutely LOVE this!!!

#Election interference and making empty/grandiose promises is kinda his signature move. That, and rAnDOmlY CaPITaliZEd word salad. #ToxicNarcissism #CanadaElections

Hoping they stand firm. #Greedflation got a free pass during the pandemic. Price gouging under the cover of hidden/non-existent supply chain "tariffs" led to record profits by many suppliers and poorer customers. #Albertsons

“One of the curses of history is that we cannot go back and change the course leading to disasters, no matter how much we might wish to. The past has its own terrible inevitability. But it is never too late to change the future." ~Heather Cox Richardson @hcrichardson.bsky.social So true.

It fascinates me that giving to charity is considered ‘noble and praiseworthy’… But, creating an economic system that works for EVERYONE and doesn't require charity, is considered socialist and evil. Mind-boggling. 😎✨

In the darkest times, there is cause for hope. May we find strength in each other and our shared belief that a better world is possible. Wishing everyone celebrating a blessed Easter.

ICE officers are now reportedly required to meet arrest quotas each day, from a few hundred to between 1,200 and 1,500 nationwide. Jonathan Blitzer reports on the mystery of the agency’s unidentifiable arrests.

“You should take a look around at the country we now share and picture what it will look like and feel like to be out in public - in a land where mental health services, substance abuse treatment, nutritional assistance, veterans’ benefits and Social Security have all been cut from coast to coast.”

This sucks. F-Elon.

If you can go to the DBG in the springtime you are in for a visual treat. #DesertBotanicalGarden #Phoenix

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

"About 40% of U.S. crop farmworkers are undocumented, according to the Agriculture Department. About 1.1 million undocumented people worked in the hospitality industry - hotels and restaurants - about 7.6% of the workforce, in 2023." Imminent shortage of "Help Wanted" signs. 😐

Biggest insider trading market manipulation scheme in history. They aren't even bothering to hide it.

What are some of your favorite/pinned feed? Here are a couple of mine. #Greensky for all things climate. www.motherjones.com/environment/...

We found the government “waste, fraud, and abuse”.
