What happens if every country decides to allow the US to isolate? Stop payments. Stop buying goods. Stop negotiating with us. Let the US go dark. I’m not saying this is good for the American people. But it is exactly what our elected officials deserve.

“Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.”-A West African proverb and T.Roosevelt “She walks softly, but she carries a big gun.” Ice T Putting on my boots and getting ready to go to work.I haven’t started smoking again,nor lost my edge. Tank Girl=spirit Trinity=mind Sarah Conner=heart

Meanwhile in Ohio, Dave Yost is more concerned about Costco than the Ohioans that will be affected by a federal funding freeze.

A freeze doesn’t make any sense. It doesn’t seem that in 30 days is enough time to review every single program. Also, why is are the payment portals dark? This seems like a distraction. What is really happening here?

Right out of the gate they are detaining U.S. citizens and saying their “papers”are fake. It was always a lie.

Tank girl is right:

Sometimes I hit a pocket of quality posts here and think “Oh, twitter is so fucked…”

The issue with Walmart isn’t DEI, it’s the fact that in nine states alone, Walmart had 14,500 employees on SNAP and 10,350 on Medicaid. Instead of attacking corporations for diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, people should be calling out the low wages.

The best people in my life have always been the ones that have told me when I am wrong, challenged me to live my values, and loved me even when I didn’t know how to love them back.

I can’t tell you how different it is on X now after so many people have left. I have always followed mostly right-wing accounts because I cover them, and they are running out of people to pick fights with. So they’re just mostly fighting with each other.

Vivek claims ending remote work will lead 25% of government employees to quit. Every CEO that has been saying “This will improve productivity and increase collaboration” is giving him side eye. Vivek is a snitch.

Fun fact: there was a trans woman in the bathroom I was using today. You’ll never believe what I did next: I pissed. I washed my hands. I nodded to them on the way out, and I went on about my day because I’m not a fucking psychopath who cares what bathroom people use.

This is not the dawning of the Age of Aquarius that I imagined

Americans saw this amazing woman and decided to vote for a convicted felon who wants to give tax cuts to billionaires and will cut Medicare, Social Security, education funding, and housing assistance to pay for it.

Bathroom bans=insulting. Number of times I have been sexually harassed/assaulted by a transgendered person: 0 Number of times I’ve been sexually harassed/assaulted in public spaces: too many to count. Stop trying to protect me with bathroom bans and just step up when men are being gross.

Coworker: You look tired. Me: Apparently, I also look approachable.

I don't want to sound alarmist or anything, but I'm not sure it's a good idea to skip FBI background checks and bury congressional ethics reports about nominees to the most important posts in the federal government.

What’s done is done. Tune into the things that will personally impact you, and decide what hill you are willing to die on. The opportunity to act as a unit has passed. Now, it’s going to be a battle for every inch fought by smaller groups.

Get your face out of your hands and dry those tears. We’ve got shit to do. #feralfiercefemale

Hey Ohio! Your school funding system was deemed unconstitutional in 1997. Do you really trust a state that has allowed this to persist will fairly distribute block grants?

I’m here 2 hours and get a follow from the Dark Lord.

Listen closely. Seek the common thread….weave the better future. Every connection counts!

What is your post-capitalism plan?
