There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

😝

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

ROFLMAO

Termination notices going out this afternoon to more than 300 employees of the National Cancer Institute. Access likely ends today. Four weeks paid leave and that’s it. Strong power move for Team Cancer.

CFPB - closed USAID - closed Medicaid - under attack NIH cancer funding - frozen Department of Education - under attack But do you know who just got a NEW government contract for $38,858,978 literally today? SpaceX — owned by Elon Musk

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

Here are some of Trump’s Traitors. These little DOGE scumbags work for Elon and have access to the US Treasury records. They should never enjoy another moment of peace. Ever. Akash Bobba Edward Coristine Luke Farrito Gautier Cole Killian Gavin Kliger Ethan Shaotran

Bipartisanship with fascists is surrender.

Tech bros and corporate media companies are kissing up to Trump with multi-million donations to his "library" and more airtime for Trump-friendly pundits. Meanwhile we the people said fuck no to the funding freeze and Trump caved. We're all we've got.

Fuck you.

Elon Musk: "race mixing is bad. Italy for Italians!" *woman next to him moves as far away as possible*

People who claim that MAGAs won’t care if coffee is $20 a cup are missing the fact that Denny’s-loving MAGAs have not actually been asked to sacrifice a damn thing for the greater good by their idiot leader before (and no, in their minds, losing Pee Paw to Covid doesn’t count)

Insightful and worth a read.

This is what the Tesla Gigafactory in Berlin looked like last night. Elon Musk & his Hitler salute was projected onto the building alongside the word “Heil”. Organised by the two campaign groups @ledbydonkeys.org & @politicalbeauty.bsky.social

When does summer start?

They absolutely buried TikTok in a Pet Sematary because what was resurrected was NOT what was laid to rest. We’re about to find out that sometimes dead is better, real quick.

Starting tomorrow after 12PM Noon, be sure to say “I can’t believe how expensive eggs still are” out loud (to yourself and within earshot of others) any time you find yourself in the dairy aisle of a supermarket.

Donald Trump should be in prison. Donald Trump should be in prison. Donald Trump should be in prison. Donald Trump should be in prison. Donald Trump should be in prison. Donald Trump should be in prison. Donald Trump should be in prison. Donald Trump should be in prison. Share if you agree.

ICE is planning immigration raids starting Tuesday. Please amplify.

Let's put this TikTok thing into perspective: Currently there are no major communications platforms (print, cable news, and now social media) not under control by the far right.

I guess Mastodon is pretty much dead, huh? It just couldn’t overcome it’s horrendous usability.

This man is a profound danger. Every American should oppose his nomination.

Just days before Trump takes power, another sign that too many establishment Democrats will fail to consistently reject MAGA attacks on rights and norms, instead trying to manage what’s coming by running to the right—a strategy that’s failed opposition parties throughout history.

Cool! So now two of the top ten richest men in the world are going to offload the cost of fact-checking onto people, paying us $0 to face an avalanche of infinite bullshit on social media so we can play endless whack-a-mole while they serve us ads.

Walgreens CEO says anti-shoplifting strategy backfired: ‘When you lock things up…you don’t sell as many of them’

“[Coca-Cola GmbH’s CEO] ordered a mass ‘Sieg Heil’ in honour of Hitler’s 50th birthday, to commemorate ‘our deepest admiration and gratitude for our Führer who has led our nation into a brilliant higher sphere.’”

Just a quick note. I haven’t been posting as much the last week because we are overwhelmed at the hospital. The ED is full & we’re treating overflow in the halls. Covid, Flu & viruses. So, be cautious out there my friends.

Still wild to me that so many "savvy" folks on left and right have bought into the idea that online misinformation is overblown and doesn't really matter. From lies about migrants to transgender people to crime to election denial to climate denial, it's literally driving our country's politics.

It's easy to quibble over whether Facebook's fact-checking "worked." I'm worried about the bigger picture. Zuckerberg blessed people who lie about politics and health care. That will normalize disinfo even more. www.salon.com/2025/01/08/m...
