Republican strategies and policies are a pox upon the American people.

Alternet: The damage Elon Musk did to our gov't & its ability to serve people will be felt for years. His slash-and-burn tactics, his raids on data, and his almost cruel delight in firing gov't employees & closing entire agencies, leaves a horrific legacy. #ProudBlue #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

seriously, this could be dementia. i have two neighbors on my block suffering from dementia, one, a woman, is deep into right-wing conspiracy, the other, a man and early onset, is deep into left-wing. it's so damn sad.

NEW: Former “We Buy Ugly Houses” franchise owner Charles Carrier agreed to plead guilty to one count of felony wire fraud that carries a potential 20-year prison sentence. The plea follows a ProPublica report detailing how Carrier bilked investors across Texas out of millions of dollars.

Republicans finding new ways to betray their oath of office and the American people.

holding Republicans to account for their sabotage of the federal government is vital. so too is learning all the reasons for their betrayal of their oaths of office and related criminal actions.

as someone online for many years, i find it cheering how easy it is to avoid seeing certain viral videos

interesting/cool thread. had no idea this was a field of study.

RFK Jr. is slowly making good on his promise to remove fluoride from water New study tried to measure the impact if he's successful: $9.8B & 25 million cavities in 5 years If that were to become a reality, "the system’s going to implode" one dentist said 🧪 www.statnews.com/2025/05/30/f...

tbh, it's always amazing to me that the early/mid 20th century Hollywood studio systems for using contracts to exploit young actors continues in the music industry. amazes me even more that it's treated as a point of amusement by social media influencers.

if only folks the folks going after weak-willed Democrats were as willing to attack by name Republicans beyond the leadership/usual suspects. only going after weak-willed Democrats all to often seem to be more about proving one's personal righteousness than anything else.

sometimes it is entirely obvious i live in a town with multiple universities, colleges, and boarding high schools. we are hip deep in gen-z, as once we were in millennials

Char and I had grilled salmon, brown rice, and veggies for dinner and i had a lil green salad and half a beer and now i am ready for a lie down, lol.

i was seriously slowing down on the grading, so i took a 30-minute treadmill break at my gym (which is about 6 minutes round trip from my house) and now i have but two more assignments to grade and one weekly wrap-up. yay, me!

my fancier than before new car resulted in an insurance increase of about $400. tbh, i thought it would be more.

Jesus wept

17 assignments left to grade 😑

A day that began (sort of) with a question about tacos ended with the Trump regime’s worst legal defeat (so far). In between, the president scattered pardons like skittles to the MAGA faithful; and Elon Musk took his thoroughly enshittified reputation home with him. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...
