Good way to see the current tariffs, as of literally today, is no tariffs on high value add manufactured goods marketed to middle and upper middle classes. Massive tariffs for cheap consumer items which amount to the biggest economic privilege of working class/middle class life in US.

Good morning, BlueSky.

Next, they will deport married women because their last names do not match their birth certificate No women should ever change her last names when getting married going forward Those that have need to file a petition for a name change back to their maiden names

The Syrian Arabic word for a hamster is أبو جراب (abu jrab), where jrab refers to a pouch/saddlebag/tote. And abu often means “father of,” but can also function as a general honorific (like “mister”). So it’s not too big a stretch to say the Syrian Arabic word for a hamster means “Mister Saddlebags”

Do not obey

Killer sign. A+++ sign

I have a new policy. If you don't let people comment on your posts, then you will be blocked. You don't get to play in my sandbox if you kick everyone out when they want to contribute to the sandcastle.

I wish I had the patience of my dog sitting outside on an early Spring day.

Watch now or save for later History is important Let's not forget #Fascism youtu.be/JU1IVW6uqM0?...

This “genius” genuinely believes that healthcare budget analysts can simply be reassigned to making toasters.

If Tesla made a dishwasher

House sparrows go completely silent and disappear from my yard whenever a hawk flies over. They don’t help the hawk. I wish US voters were as smart as birds.

😂😂

Kennedy claimed, “The Deep State is real. And it’s not, you know, just George Soros and Bill Gates and a bunch of nefarious individuals sitting together in a room and plotting the, you know, the destruction of humanity.”

The message China is sending to the US is “we don’t need you and we don’t care, we have survived for 5,000 years (for most of which the US didn’t exist) and we’ll survive for another 5,000” It’s not looking good for the USA.

Dam Murphy has a brass set Good for him

Marjorie Taylor Greene buying Apple, Pi, Qualcomm, Dell, Amazon, and Lam stocks seems a lot more sus before the tariff exemptions on electronics components, smartphones, semiconductors, and computers. Martha Stewart would like a word.

Every prisoner swap with Russia is like "she is a 14-year-old girl who Putin said sang 'Carol of the Bells' too aggressively and he is a top Russian spy who personally strangled a dissident to death in a London coffee shop"

Before folks overreact to headlines about the judge’s ruling in the Khalil case, please note that (1) it was an immigration judge (IJ), not a federal district court; and (2) the IJ had no power to consider Khalil’s constitutional objections. This particular decision was a fait accompli.

Disgusting. An offense to every practicing lawyer, regardless of politics.

So, I guess we don't have to worry about the Stock Market, the Bond Market, Social Security, Voting Rights, Discrimination, or Climate Change, since Trump is planning to kill us all in an unnecessary Nuclear War. Cool. Good to Know.

Threatening a use of force if you don't agree to one's negotiations is called Extortion. Also, attacking a country with unknown military capabilities, which were literally built up because YOU, PERSONALLY, cancelled their agreement to stop building nuclear weapons, is truly Mad King stuff.

NATO is concerned that Russia is seeking to deploy nuclear weapons in space, a development that could threaten the thousands of satellites orbiting the Earth that are crucial to defense as well as people's daily lives, the alliance's chief said.

NATO Chief Mark Rutte said Russia is considering using nuclear weapons against satellites in space, which would be a violation of the 1967 Outer Space Treaty.

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

@vincewarren.bsky.social was so incredibly impressive on @allinwithchris.bsky.social Great attorney working to protect Constitutional Rights of, amongst others, Mahmoud Kahlil. Keep up the good fight, Mr. Warren. You inspire the rest of us Justice Warriors.

@booker.senate.gov: "For a guy who spends the weekend on his golf course and brags to the media about him winning a tournament while the struggling-- this is the kind of gross arrogance of a Marie Antoinette saying, "let them eat cake" ... Screw him for telling people to accept pain."

Today's an "I need to eat microwaved Chef-Boy-ar-Dee with a chaser of Reese's Peanut Butter Easter Eggs While Watching Trash TV" kind of Friday. Substitute Kraft Mac-n-Cheese and/or Cadbury Creme Eggs, as appropriate.

Lacey ate the face off her Easter Lamb. She is just making sure to "Beware of Wolves in Sheep's Clothing." Or Faces. Whatever. Good dog.

Yeah, that's not pro bono work (pro bono publico - for the public good). Trump just wants them to work without getting paid. There's a difference. #LawSky www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

I don't know what to do with this "literal shit-storm." Apparently, nobody in Sweden does, either. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

They are obviously slow learners

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

#Epilepsy affects 1 in 26 Americans over a lifetime, and seizures can strike without warning. Neurologists explain the complex brain activity behind these sudden events and why diagnosis remains challenging: buff.ly/ReI9lAw #WorldEpilepsyDay 🩺

A US teen has been nationally recognized for developing an epilepsy seizure detection device. Sarah Wang built a wearable device that detects seizure-related hand movements and alerts caregivers in real time.

The former top federal prosecutor in Virginia’s Eastern District suffered from epilepsy and died in her sleep last weekend, her family says.
