For the US to side with Russia and North Korea to oppose a UN resolution condemning the illegal invasion of Ukraine defies all common sense and adds insult to the countless injuries suffered by the brave Ukrainian people. edition.cnn.com/2025/02/24/p...

It helps me to remember that only 60% of eligible American voters actually voted, and less than half of those voted for Trump.

I remember seeing stories about Palestinian Americans who supported Trump because they believed he would end the war. I suspect they’re part of a growing block who now realize the leopard will in fact eat your face too.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Elon Musk in an email to X staff in January, per the WSJ. “Our user growth is stagnant, revenue is unimpressive, and we’re barely breaking even”

And so it begins. Sam Kuffel, a meteorologist for CBS58, has reportedly been fired for criticizing Elon Musk’s arm gesture on her personal social media account.

Old white man in the waiting room explaining to everyone why the US was justified in banning TikTok because China wants to take over the world. SMH. The audacity of privilege combined with sheer ignorance as he promotes X as superior…

American far-right plutocrats are now targeting Wikipedia because it's a platform they don't control. The Wikimedia Foundation is an invaluable non-profit organisation that is not for sale. Please help keeping it that way by making a donation - big or small: donate.wikimedia.org

I’m confused. War is still raging in Ukraine and eggs remain expensive. Maybe that’s scheduled to get fixed tomorrow?

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

I find it hi-larious that the US gov’t bans TikTok over fears of Chinese government influence through a proxy that only owns 20% of the company and Americans migrate to RedNote (Xiaohongshu apps.apple.com/us/app/%E5%B...) which, as a Chinese company, is 100% influenced by the Chinese government.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

RIP Jimmy Carter.

With the Tik Tok ban imminent I’m compelled to wonder, is Xi a preferable leader to Trump and is American oligarchy better than Russian oligarchy?

I heard it said recently that if CEO’s got shot at the same rate as school children in America we’d have gun reform in no time…
