So they literally took 1 trillion from the poor and gave it to the ultra rich. And another trillion for the very rich. Repubs are evil monsters, vile filth.

The biggest fraud and theft is by Republicans stealing trillions but they don't want to talk about their fraud in the big ugly bill.

And more corruption, crypto schemes, foreign bribes, the president ACTUALLY pardoning convicted Medicaid fraudsters.

BREAKING: Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon fires three journalists at the independent military publication Stars and Stripes after they publicly defended its editorial independence and opposed Pentagon censorship. Publisher Max Lederer. Editor-in-Chief Erik Slavin. Middle East reporter Lara Korte.
Slavin says he was accused of “insubordination” for declaring that censoring news delivered to service members would cross a red line. Korte says she was fired after stating that she works for Stars… #Trump

Feels like I've lived there all my life 😅

If account signup pages were accurate:

"Please fill out this information so that we can conduct a single transaction with you, email you incessantly until you hit unsubscribe, and then at a later point contact you to say your information was stolen in a breach for which we promise to be very contrite about but word the notification such that it will look like we're saying you, as the victim, are to blame for the entire sordid thing. Oh and also, use a difficult to guess password and shit."

They were poorly thought out to begin with, but it might be a good time for Canada to put a moratorium on data centers, to stop American tech bros using up our electricity and polluting our water.

Neoliberals: "Don't be so mean towards politicians because some of them could help you."

Me: STFU unless you introduce me to one politician who has actually gone out of their way to help people like me suffer less. I'm not gonna stoop to brown-nosing politicians, like many of you are absolutely willing to kneel down for. Despite having zero evidence that kneeling down helps elevate oppressed, marginalized folks.

Do not even try to say Avi Lewis or Wab Kinew in response. Unless you want me to slay on why both are now part of a larger, corrupted government system & when neither(both actively nonmask) has spoken up at all about eugenics in public health care that caused my Dad to die due to reckless health care workers, having eugenicists run public health care policies & getting public to normalize eugenics. Fuck that.

“rent-burdened millennials who abandoned avocado toast and fancy coffee and still can't afford a downpayment will tell you, the fact that being born in 1945 made it easy to trip and land on a couple million dollars' worth of real estate wealthy by the time you reached retirement age tells us nothing about how to solve the housing crisis of 2026.”

“By the same token, continuing to give trillions to AI companies because they experienced early success with theory-free inference at scale tells us nothing about how to solve the vast range of problems that theory-free inference at scale sucks at. Doubling down on AI to overcome its increasingly obvious limitations is like doubling down on building post-war suburbs to fix today's housing market.”

I didn't eat lunch because I was on the bus, and now I'm thinking I want to eat, but I'm also thinking it's almost 100 degrees outside and I don't feel like going to the market.

Taking the bus to the fabric shop to get material for a couple of sewing projects. We've arrived at a local landmark: A drive-thru donut shop that's a giant donut.

The LA area has another donut shop with a large donut that's treated like something of a legend, Randy's, but in my opinion, The Donut Hole beats it as an icon any day of the week

miss pia, her whiskers, and her ear tufties would like to wish you a very comfy week-end. (she deigned to look vaguely at the camera for exactly this long and then went back to sleep)
