I think this is what pisses me off the most. Even if you don't give a single fuck about anyone or anything else besides money, you should want to mitigate and adapt to climate change. It's the only thing that makes financial, let alone ethical and moral, sense.

Well there's your problem right there! You got a whole bunch of capitalism stuck in your human rights. Gotta clear that shit out.

Can you imagine how LONG it would take to do this kind of deep dive social media review?? And the taxpayer dollars all those reviewers will cost?? This, from the admin obsessed with "waste, fraud, and abuse" 🙃

Then you probably shouldn't have reproduced.

Monopolies just get bigger and bigger and it's the customer and employees who suffer. We have laws to stop this, they're just being ignored. Corporate consolidation is eating away at American culture and economics and the people in charge are gleeful about it.

1. Hard to believe, but Amazon has persuaded schools and cities across the country to abandon competitive bidding and fixed price contracts. Instead, they're signing contracts with Amazon that specify dynamic pricing. The result: Paying $37 for 12 pens or $74 for 36 markers.

I swear maybe once a decade in public, and this is the moment. This fucking racist and all the gibbering racists nodding along behind him are the ruination of our country. Our fucking job for the next fucking year is to fucking destroy them in the next election. Fuck them.

I am once again begging every public speaker to record themselves practicing so they can hear how often they say uh and um. It is SO distracting to listen to!

JFC people!! Get your damn vaccines and protect your community!!

But please, do explain how unregulated capitalism and corporate consolidation is good for everyone

Cool guess let's just waltz right back into Nazi Germany jfc

He gets one vote just like the rest of us. Get money out of politics NOW.

Maybe it's the confirmation bias bubble I'm in but the only people happy about data centers seem to be the people insisting they must be built and the rest of the country is horrified and like, hello?? So sick of this paternalistic "trust us, it's good for you" bullshit. Fuck AI.

It's been a month. The batteries are still working. FYI.

I know we're all operating at breakneck news cycle speeds these days but I'm literally BEGGING newsletter writers to get ANYONE to read their piece before hitting send. The errors, my god the ERRORS. The missing words alone haunt me.

Kinda feel like that's the plan, to sow chaos and do crazy shit while everyone's distracted just trying to survive

What a fun way to find out AI is basically just fan fiction written by the same person who forgot to log into their alt account

E. B. White rolling in his grave no doubt

There is not NEARLY enough discussion around the very real possibility it will be the collapse of insurance markets that brings us down. grist.org/economics/in...

My constant reaction to literally everything on my feed today (and most days!)

The fuck is this shit

DON'T DO IT @wyden.senate.gov @merkley.senate.gov!!! The GOP are committing political suicide, LET THEM SINK.

What freaks me out is that they're doing shit they KNOW will get them hammered in the midterms which makes it pretty clear they fully intend to rig them or just straight up not have them. America, we need an emergency toolkit and we need to place it by the front door right now.

And we'd do it all over again if we could!!!

The question is have we become monsters or were we really this monstrous all along?

Pure fucking evil

Fuckin' yikes

Visitors should avoid wading in pools of water on the beach and stay clear of water runoff flowing into the ocean.

Sex is great but have you ever made two dead batteries work again by rubbing them together in your hands really hard?

Who needs a king when we've got this queen in our midst??

Not nearly enough people are talking about this, even in the climate space.

I can't believe I haven't seen a million jokes about TPUSA being called Toilet Paper USA.

Bitch we don't hate America. We hate what you fuckers are turning it into.

Bloomberg research found wholesale electricity up ~270% in areas near data centers It doesn't seem like nearly enough people are taking it seriously One A.I. image isn't too much energy, but 5 million videos? Per day/hour/minute whatever. It's not sustainable www.bloomberg.com/graphics/202...

Even during a shutdown, TSA officers & air traffic controllers are showing up without pay to keep our airports running. While I delivered them donuts, I checked in with travelers to make sure they knew they were visiting a "war zone.”   It's clear Portland is not a military target. It's home.

It was a beautiful Sunday in Portland. Farmer’s markets, the Portland Marathon, peaceful protests, and some views of Mt. Hood. This city is vibrant, peaceful, and resilient. We do not need a federal occupation, and we sure as hell don’t want one.

Pretty wild how scared these macho men ICE agents are of some matcha-fueled Portlanders, hope these sensitive men get the help they need to cope with their overwhelming fear

Kinda convinced nothing will change unless we put caps on income. Like after a certain amount you're taxed at a 100% rate. We gotta stop the rat race, it's literally killing us.

WITHOUT ANY CLEAR SIGNS OF PROVOCATION

Federal officer blasts chemical spray into vocal but nonviolent Portland protester, video shows The interaction illustrates how federal law enforcement officers do use aggressive tactics against protesters who yell and needle officers but don’t appear to present clear physical threats.

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

I predict mass cognitive dissonance in Portland as people try to decide whether they hate the feds more than the cops

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

BRING 👏 BACK 👏 PUBLIC 👏 SHAMING 👏 Name these fuckers, plaster their faces all over the internet and their home towns, make everyone they know refuse to talk to or be seen with them. Make their parents publicly disown them.

Every day I wake up and understand that we are one step closer to Idiocracy

Utterly ravaged by war over here...

Worth pointing out that while yes this is a lie, cities in America DO have some intractable problems but they're mostly caused by *wait for it* capitalism and lack of universal health care and the solution is building a stronger social safety net, not the military
