I get that the level of corruption & thievery both in money and voter representation is BAD. I also know that we need to find time to care for ourselves during this awful time. Find something that brings you joy,laughter, a sense of community. We can not allow every bit of light to be extinguished.

Genuinely wonder what would happen if, say, 50 million Americans refused to pay their taxes because they’re being spent unconstitutionally

STOP installing these ugly floors if you're putting house on the market. It will only drive away certain buyers especially if you go hog wild and cover most of the floors. Understand your market. An old hardwood floor or even a painted floor would be better.

Before J6'S get too excited about about the "reward" that the president is looking to fund from taxpayer money they should remember that this man has a long history of not paying those who worked for him. Like the Covid money that never quite trickled down to common folk. Tr*mp phone anyone?

Have you ever read a book that you had to set aside because the creeping dread was too much? The Devil in Silver by @victorlavalle.bsky.social . I will definitely finish this in the next few days. I fear for the patients, Mr.Lavalle.Well Done.

Next time someone tells you the grid can't handle electric cars hit them over the head with a data center.

Many GOP voters find themselves on the crocodile's back in the middle of the river. Hope y'all vote better in upcoming elections if you're still around.

Its not that hard to find issues that speak to American voters. The Commercials write themselves. Context: Mike Johnson's salary which he claims is not enough to live on.

If the Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto have a right to resist the occupation of Nazi Germany, then the Palestinian and Lebanese people have a right and a self-determination to fight for their country and reclaim their land stolen by them by the Zionist government.

My statement from a major bank came in INTEREST PAYMENT $0.06 Woo-hoo, Tell us again Mr.President how well the stock market is doing. Wealthy people should not be governing the American people.

If you are mugged walking down an unfamiliar alley you can't be blamed. If you walk down that alley again you are begging to be mugged. Anyone dumb enough to shell out $ to any venture by this grifting family well.......

Okay, everybody, here's a lesson in economics. Pepsi was charging $7 a bag for Doritos, and people decided they were not paying it. That cost PepsiCo billions. .They will continue to Jack up prices based on what you are willing to pay. Stop paying it, stop buying it. It doesn't matter what it is.

We've normalized working people living out of their cars because we can't normalize taxing billionaires.

This is how you stand behind your Jewish citizens but not "Stand with Israel ". Bravo,Sir.

What can science learn from Mayor Mamdani? We can actually just…have a better system and we don’t have to wait decades for it. We can just change it.

Lots of folks on here are discovering Libby . I am here to say Welcome, also your Library may offer Kanopy or Hoopla for movies and other forms of media like audio book and music. Check it out.

We have to start fighting back against corporate greed. My son's internet service did the same thing. He called to cancel and after slogging through all the gatekeepers was able to get a much better rate. They count on us accepting this price gouging . Get mad as hell and don't take it anymore.

This is a view from inside my car as I was getting gas. This over compensating jackass pulled up to my bumper. Took $20 bucks to fill my tank from half a tank, I know it hurt his wallet more.

America didn’t turn ugly because he became President. No. He became President because America was already this ugly. That’s the uncomfortable truth nobody wants to admit.

Was lucky today on my walk. Was able to watch from afar these lovely ladies practicing a dance routine. I think it was Hindu/ India but not sure. It was lovely to listen to their music and watch their graceful movement. Thank you, Ladies.

Fuck Coachella, and also the rename will be best for the animal shelter because the animals deserve better than to be associated, even loosely, with the likeness of such a horrible company.

FUCK COACHELLA!

I've been saying that some folks who shouldn't have passed their driving tests are on the streets of Philadelphia. Lo and behold.

Let's be honest with ourselves. No American president has seen the inside of a cell though many should have ( Andrew Jackson for one). We can make the enablers and architects, profiteers of the dismantling of democracy accountable. He will exit this world terrified No amount of $ will stop that.

I suppose the only thing at 50 you can really start to look forward to is just total irresponsibility. As you get older, you can just sit in a chair, wear anything you want, you know you can walk down; old people dress cool. You know they wear sweatpants. The elderly have it down. --Johnny Depp

Waiting on Alice?

Beat them at the ballot box anyway.

I think switching parties mid-term means an elected should resign. The terms of the election are voided by such a choice. The elected would owe it to the constituency to have their voices heard anew.

I’ve come across so many people recently who feel like working food service and retail is beneath them - and all I’m going to say is, when there’s no one to make your coffee, take your pizza order, scoop your ice cream then will you feel like those things mattered?

I'm gonna be blocking anyone here posting pics of the Bezos & Lauren Oligarchs event. It really won't make a difference to them but it will help me keep masochists out of my feed, hopefully.

You'd think that anyone there seeing this would be ashamed but You'd be wrong. EFF them all.

The library has everything you may need. Go in physically and get the card, but if you have a card online, you have many choices. Explore those please. There are physical programs, but Libby, Hoopla and other options are available for audiobooks, movies and more. Get the library card. please.

How about a TV that automatically cuts the volume by half during the commercials and back to full when the show comes back. Now THAT would be a SmartTV. 🧠 📺

My issue with her is not that she was a sex worker . My issue is that she was an enabler in the abuse that young underage girls were put under. That she puts h herself above former first lady Michelle. That she an illegal immigrant cares nothing for other immigrants. Not a good human being.

I’ve never liked wine so I didn’t think I’d like a show about wine. Well, guess what I was wrong. Drops of God is actually a pretty good show.

If everybody would actually actually stop shopping at the 30 largest companies, it would make a huge difference in this country. But most people don't make the sacrifice. It's just too easy to get cheese slices at Walmart for $1.89 so everybody does, and the secret cost of that is bigoted fascism.

Mourn for the country being systematically destroyed from within then rebuild your spine with steel to do everything in you power to enable the rebirth of a country that works for all. EVERY ELECTION going forward matters. From dog catcher to the top in every local,state and federal election .

👍

Bravo. It is long overdue. Even $15 would be a help to those having to work 2 jobs at 7.25. It's a disgrace that neither party since 2009 has made this their goal.

In other news Philadelphia (PA only) ; Current Avg. $4.092, $4.590 ; Yesterday Avg. $4.066, $4.572 ; Week Ago Avg. $4.066, $4.584 ; Month Ago Avg. $3.981, $4.466 ...

I don’t buy any of this at all.

That would be correct. I'll say this. No other Presidents have had more assassination attempts than him Ask anybody.

This entire thing is ridiculous.

I’m Masuke, 17 years old. Did I look cute in the photo?

More dog owners NEED to see this..

This photo should be on the front page of every single newspaper in America today.

The little fluff ball on the right is Scouts " little brother". Not related just have know each other since Tito was a wee pup. Belongs to a neighbor.
