no sheโs not. we are.
no sheโs not. we are.
What are we even doing here? The bulk of this is like four trillion dollar regressive tax cut that doesnโt help the poorest families at all and helps the richest the most.
To make it less regressive, he adds like another two trillion in progressive tax cuts that targets families with kids.
It's stiff competition, but Nellie Bowles may actually be the most evil, vapid person to work at her wife's stupid website:
๐บ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ท The Iran War is currently the largest oil shock in terms of million barrels produced per day in history.
Over 5 times the OPEC embargo after the Yom Kippur War and Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait, both of which caused major global recessions.
for me โdoom scrollingโ is actually just the pathological hunt for the first piece of news that indicates this whole unbearable moment is about to unravel
We're at a point where there are no cheap options to retreat to and no price points that guarantee quality. Every run-down studio is $1400, every fast food meal is $17, every luxury condo has peel-n-stick tiles, every $300 pair of boots falls apart. Endless expensive mediocrity.
โA DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credibleโand that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying.โ

Fuck no. Epstein Class is PHENOMENAL branding for ALL billionaires.
EPSTEIN CLASS = WEALTHY ELITE & CORRUPT POLITICIANS.
NOTHING ELSE.
Any tries using it as a dog whistle, beat their ass.
Nothing has made me reconsider my relationship to Judaism more than the actions of the Israeli state.
Some of this stuff could be lifted word for word from a British colonial office briefing in the 20s
my hot take of the day: medicare for all should include pet care.
signed: someone who just watched a man break down in tears at the vet because he was struggling to decided whether he should take on the vet costs of the dying stray he brought in.
They write about their bots "creating" and "generating" things when their bots open the jar of baby food and spoon it into their mouths. Also occasionally the baby food contains broken glass and novichok.
Over the past year, every single time one of the apps or services I use suddenly became less reliable and more buggy, I never have to look far for the "Claude is amazing and now writes most of my code" post for the devs involved.
Itโs so weird that not so long ago, like, less than 20 years, the progressive feminist position was gender de-segregation in sport and other male dominated spaces. Then the terfs came along and convinced the mainstream that the most progressive feminist position is that women are weak and feeble.
"They have always taught and trained you to believe it to be your patriotic duty to go to war...But in all the history of the world you, the people, have never had a voice in declaring war, and strange as it certainly appears, no war by any nation in any age has ever been declared by the people."
This is who will replace Crockett in the House
With 30% of vote reporting in Arkansas, John Adams (the more liberal candidate in the state supreme court race) is ... LEADING 50.8% to 49.2% against the conservative Nick Bronni, who was appointed to the court by Governor Huckabee Sanders.
A long way to goโbut fascinating so far.

It is making me insane. She's black and says mean things about Trump on Bill Maher so she progressive. Talarico says Jesus stuff so he moderate.
Polymarket has created a market that would monetize a nuclear attack amid increasing concerns that bets are happening among government insiders who can make military decisions.
What stage of the apocalypse is this?

getting our asses kicked is our best possible outcome as a country
I don't care if Congress authorizes War on Iran. NO WAR ON IRAN. I want people to fucking reclaim their morality.
In a democracy, the war on Iran would not be possible.
Every major disaster in this country over my lifetime has been self inflicted by right wing ideologues with just enough complicit or inert Democrats to enable or ratify them. That's why we've been on this doom trajectory for the last ~50 years and it'll keep getting worse if that doesn't change
Just following orders is not an accepted defense for crimes against humanity. Thinking about that for no reason today
I'd rather live in a world where Iranian children are alive and Khameni is tweeting stupid shit than a world where those children are dead and Khameni is dead.
if they were courageous they would quit. there's nothing brave about killing kids at the whim of an irrational old pedophile
The GOP became cartoonishly overt fascists who are polling a thousand points underwater on everything and the Democratic Party have responded by becoming 2003-era Neocons whose only disagreements with the GOP are procedural quibbles.
