"Santens identifies 3 primary pathways through which UBI functions: reducing poverty, reducing insecurity, and reducing inequality." There have been endless pilots showing UBI works, yet governments keep opting for cutting support instead. I wish they were brave enough to implement UBI & help people

this could be our world if we wanted: - Peace - Justice - Civil rights - Education - Nature preservation and protection - Public lands - Clean air and water - Universal basic income - Universal health care - Universal housing - Food quality and security - Public transit - Clean power

So UBI? And free medicine! Where do I vote!

Good morning, Bluesky. Smudge is looking forward to CONSUMING YOUR SOUL.

Peter Dutton, the Trumpy candidate in Australia running for Prime Minister, not only lost as PM, he lost his seat in parliament too. Exact same thing happened in Canada to Poilievre. You love to see it.

A year or so ago the bipolar community here contributed to some infographics I put together. I just made some updates to the “Mania for Normies” handout; more feedback is always welcome, these are living docs! I’d love for folks to share it with anyone who could benefit 😃 🙌 thank you carry on

Dems need to get off their asses and figure out what they need to do to A.) Create the jobs we need B.) Legislate a universal basic income C.) Both of the above This is unsustainable. @democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social

@johngreensbluesky.bsky.social you are terrible at live tweeting.

Why would you do this!

These days will end.

How would anyone know if I chose not to buy things because they're made somewhere?

if they were getting covered they would next have to explain why they were happening and that would get dangerously close to objective truth

Crockett: Pam Bondi, if you have an issue with terrorism, maybe you should talk to your boss about locking back up those guys that he let out that participated in January 6th.

No, he did not. Hell, Biden’s margin of victory in 2020 was three points higher than Trump’s. It’s such a stupid lie but they keep saying it to justify all the chaos.

The geniuses at DOGE are bringing us insights like "I'm not really sure why the tax agency for a country of 330 million people has a larger staff than a midsize bank"

See, it's funny cuz it's true. 🤣 (also: #sad) 😞

High crimes and misdemeanors.

Warnock: They are busy attacking ordinary people. They don’t understand what it’s like to ration your prescription drugs or what it’s like to try to figure out how to afford groceries. In the words of that prophet who just spoke at The Super Bowl: They not like us

So if Cuba needs Florida they can just take it? Do they not realize this all works both ways? Canada could claim Alaska. Hey! 🧐🤔

Right now, the savviest thing a Democratic politician can possibly do is to publicly demonstrate a willingness to violate both norms and decorum.

Crawford: He’s talked about begging on his knees for campaign contributions, wearing out his knee pads. He wants to be there to support Elon Musk… And that’s really not what the court’s for. And I’ve said over and over—I want to be on the court to protect the people of Wisconsin…

Props to the Norwegian parliament for dropping this photo

Retweeting this for no particular reason @annecaprara.bsky.social

We are very close to a near cure for two of the highest-mortality cancers we know: glioblastoma and pancreatic cancer. These are both mRNA based treatments which are losing their funding during stage I and II trials. Thousands will die needlessly because of this motherfucker and his lies.

Crazy that I’ve been sleeping for over 45 years and every single night I can never remember where my hands go

WHOA! Democrat Ro Khanna holds a town hall in VERY RED Bakersfield, California — and draws a HUGE CROWD on Sunday.

It's delightful when you're reading a romance novel, written by a woman, for other women, and the writer writes, "... if she was going to feel this guilty, she should at least have gotten an orgasm or five for her trouble."

Dear Bluesky, Thanks to your support our newsletter has grown by 52,000 people in the last three months. As a result we now can afford the booking agency to get big guests for our live show. Thank you so much! - God

This made me snort my coffee this morning. I laughed so hard. Maybe he is just a failed comedian acting out, since no one thinks he is funny.

Four years to get through, minus 57 days.

Must read: Mahmoud Khalil speaks out for the first time since his arrest by the Trump administration in an exclusive letter, dictated over the phone to his family, from ICE detention in Louisiana.

wtf

Ozymandias

Thanks to @joeleisenberg.bsky.social and Maureen Kelly for passing this along.

Gooood morning sinners~! 🙃

Oh, my gosh. I've just finished the newest Liaden novel, DIVINER'S BOW, by @clankorval.bsky.social and Steve Miller, and it's just...it's beautiful. My heart. Out on April 1. And look at that staggeringly beautiful cover. www.amazon.com/dp/B0DMQ3X2C... (affiliate link, etc)

Every goddamn accusation is a confession.

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!” @USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?” NEBRASKA CROWD: *CHEERS WILDLY* (not sure this went quite as he planned 😬)
