Fun economic facts: f you're age 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45 years old, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 30, the number is 100%. Hat-Tip SundaeDivine on the dead bird site. #EconSky

RFK Jr. Unveils Disturbing Plan to Combat Bird Flu "consider maybe the possibility of letting it run through the flock so that we can identify the birds, and preserve the birds that are immune to it" newrepublic.com/post/192916/... via @newrepublic.com #badscience #birdflu #Kennedy #donnysdei

Oedipus musk should really let the inside thoughts stay inside thoughts. Figures the two most crazed lunatics would share the desire to keep it in the family as it were. #elonmusk #elon #musk #creepy #oediouscomplex #trump

Reading the documents for the verdict made me very happy that there's still some sanity, empathy, and humanity left in the judicial system while being so utterly disgusted with the Hegseth defence department I'll add some quotes that emphasize just how much cruelty was the purpose #vetsagainsttrump

"His final act of dishonor, beyond the assault of his partner, was to be forced to stand down from Veterans for Freedom and Concerned Veterans for America in the face of serious allegations of financial mismanagement, sexual impropriety, and personal misconduct." substack.com/@politicsusa...

Add China to the list of foreign interests, not funneling, but power washing money into the pockets of the billionaire "elite". Guess that's why he had to obliterate the protection agencies. Nobody to tell you can't sell out the country for foreign money. America has been sold to private equity.

Depends, can the children outbid the richest man in human history or media? Looks like the kids are going to need to take extra shifts at the Tyson factory to afford this. Maybe that's why Sarah Sanders keeps pushing for more child labor. I really wish these kids had a right to life in America.

🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 Just as a reminder, not all Americans are traitors. Ukraine has a right to self defense and self determination, we support President Zelensky and Ukrainian citizens!

Funny, the "big release" Kennedy files show little if any different information from what's already available. The real read is about all the fun extracurricular activities the government was getting up to around the world at the time. nsarchive.gwu.edu/briefing-boo...

With the FCC gutted and no-one left to ensure their end of the adequacy arrangement with the EU, surely it's time for the EU to ban data sharing with the USA? https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/03/18/two-democratic-commissioners-fired-ftc/

Artificial intelligence is like artificial sweetener. It's kind of sort of doing a job like what we want it to do... ... But it tastes off, metallic, and you can tell everything that it's in. Ultimately you just wish you made better choices so you could have just had some real sugar

It's funny how Elon calls Tesla his baby.... ....When he's been using the biologic one as a pew-proof shield. Really shows you where the priorities lie.

This is just a reminder for those that need to hear it: Musk wasn't a founder at Tesla, he was supposed to be silent money as an early adopter and funder but got his panties in a knot and sued to be called a founder. The same is true of most companies that he puts his name in front of.

My neighbors all excited at the prospect of all government services being privatized. Gretchen, you're literally living in someone else's social security in a house the city has both condemned and put into foreclosure. What're you going to do when the for profit firefighters get here?

I don't know who needs to know this, but Pro Publica has an online thing that will format a letter to your US health insurance company to demand the records behind a claim denial. (which the insurance is then legally required to provide in most cases) projects.propublica.org/claimfile/

You forgot the new firmware update: *Plastic may now be found in the ball *New survival mode with fewer guardrails and lower resource acquisition *All new boss enemies *More dynamic weather and terrain effects *So much more

I keep getting these weird mixed messages, maybe someone can help clear them up? I keep hearing corporations are monarchies that make everything good in this world, but Citizens United says corporations are people so which is it? Is it a man or a kingdom?
