How did we end up at “billionaires are geniuses because they are billionaires”. We should never equate stealing the productivity of others to get rich as a sign of intelligence. Curing cancer, genius. Solving complex problems, genius. Getting rich at the expense of everyone else, not genius.

Please do not believe the lie that DOGE is looking for fraud. Their actions would make prosecuting fraud nearly impossible. As soon as the DOGE idiots access the computers they corrupt the data and taint any investigation for fraud. DOGE are tech freaks not forensic accountants or fraud experts.

When I write to my Republican elected reps I am required to identify my gender and marital status as the salutation is a required field. Since this is unacceptable, I may or may not be choosing the one that correctly matches reality. Admiral, Commander and Ruler of the World are not on the list. 🙁

It’s very sad that parents of disabled children are now feeling the same fear as parents of nonbinary and transgender children due to the criminal in the White House. Hatred knows no boundaries. All parents should be alarmed right now. All children are at risk. Your children are at risk.

Worker ant. Sculpted, printed, cast, cleaned, assembled, patinated, polished…and she’s done. 14 separate bronze pieces, 7 nuts and bolts, 2 rare-earth magnets, zero visible fasteners. The animal itself.

1. The media should not be controlled by billionaires. 2. People correctly complaining about that need to support small publications. 3. More of you should be paying for Law Dork. www.lawdork.com/subscribe

I liked this place so much better before everyone welcomed the newcomers by saying a bunch of tech stuff I have no idea what you’re talking about. There are hashtags here? Exactly where? I never seen one and tried searching for them and nothing. Fancy tech term maybe? 😵‍💫

801 US billionaires control a record $6.2 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% of Americans control $3.7 trillion in wealth. When 801 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

I’ll never understand the attraction of ordering anything online. The delivery companies are determined to not deliver packages. Do they not realize if they don’t deliver the packages there will eventually be no packages to deliver as no one will order anymore?

The intention of a profit driven system is PROFIT. The system profits from not providing care or providing only profitable care. The US healthcare systems is not intended to serve patients who need healthcare. The design is to make profit using patients not to help the patients.

AI pictures of what is supposed to be beautiful nature make no sense. Pictures of nature are special and awesome because they are real. An AI creation is then art, and as art, AI is not very good art as it lacks artistic creativity and unique expression and it lacks a medium to hold it.
