This one hits hard.

Why not believe a company with a reputation for deceiving the public?¹ "Multiple Amazon employees told the publication that it was the second time in recent months that AI tools had been involved in a service disruption.

Trump isn't winning because he's a mastermind; the people of the United States are undereducated and exhausted.

The GOP is teeming with pedophiles & you know what? Almost 1/2 of GOP voters seem fine with it -> in a July 2025 survey, 47% of Republicans said they'd still support Donald Trump even if he was "officially implicated in Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking activities" See: leger360.com/trump-epstei...

hard to believe that there's not much market for "impractical, barely functional, extremely ugly, prohibitively expensive, and developed by the world's most prominent Nazi."

Heads up, there are two manufacturers of the cookies. One has the traditional cookies and apparently still taste ok, the other not so much. I'm not sure which was which but it's easy to find on a search engine.

Do you ever think of the mostly Black families that were terrorized when DHS landed helicopters on the roof like they were in Baghdad (which in itself was questionable), and put little kids out in the snow in undies and zip ties? Do you ever wonder what happened to people who were sent to CECOT?

This is what you're missing if you're not at the library today

Straw + camel

A tariff “refund” mostly goes to whoever wrote the tariff check: the importer of record. That’s not the same person who paid more at the register. So refunds -- if they're offered -- might sound like consumer relief, but in reality, they're corporate windfalls.

Why don't Republicans want people to know about these things? It's because they are things Republicans want to do, or people they want to do things to, and if people understand our history, it will be harder for Republicans to do their evil

This is by no stretch Trump's choice or option to do. One man alone cannot do this. We have three branches of government. For Trump to do what he's doing right now means all three branches have fallen to a tyrant and his handlers.

Another Migra murder.

True since 1980, when the vast, rw conspiracy's most successful long game took the Executive Branch. I was a little kid learning metrics as the US was gearing up to convert, solar was on the horizon, space frontiers, etc. Then we got Reagan and lost jobs, healthcare, homes, and families.

My gosh we need to be learning about normalization and cognitive disconnect much earlier in school and life. We're actually watching our Congress vote on a war for a traitor, tyrant, 36-count felon, and pedophile instead of demanding they perform their Constitutional duty and STOP HIM.

Church of Satan, you're up.

Friends don't let friends by these glorified dumpsters.

Klobuchar was the Susan Collins of the left, based on her voting record as of 2020. Now she's voting for Trump's appointments. No one, especially a so-called Democrat, should be voting for these appointees! Klobuchar is the fascist's friend, she doesn't represent the People.

NYT is fascist-operated, like CBS and WaPo. Nothing good can come from quoting or subscribing.

This isn't who we are" only holds up if we put our actions behind the phrase. We show who we are as a nation through our Constitution. When the Constitution is threatened or damaged by the Executive, the remedy for restoration is impeachment. Powers are defined for Congress to bridle the Executive.

They continued in this egregious failure, even after Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche (Donald Trump's personal lawyer) underlined the point by stating that such Epstein file material (w/torture and death) had been withheld. They're ignoring a giant billboard on torture & death of... children?

Are you aware that the congressional bill which forced the [partial, so far] disclosure of the Epstein files disclosed that the files contained evidence of torture and death, by stipulating that the DOJ could withhold such material?

Why didn't they expect this could happen to them? Where was the logic, the common sense, the EMPATHY? “I didn’t want to give it headspace. I was just in disbelief, incredulous that this could happen.” It gives the sort of gobsmacking arrogance we see from white Americans who encounter the leopard.

NOPE No more warmongering agents of foreign powers

Imagine blaming people for refusing to vote for politicians who insist on "bipartisanship" with a fascist death cult. By 2020, the Republican party was already so extreme that it was further right than Europe's far right groups. Now? They're closer to Russia. bsky.app/profile/pama...

Relevant to the oligarchs in image 3, if the People story abt Epstein having been Putin's financier is true, then it's logical that he had relationships with the oligarchs, too no? For the uninitiated, Blavatnik washed his reputation and started donating to US politicians after the fall of the SU.

Boardroom, the sports, media and entertainment brand co-founded by Kevin Durant and Rich Kleiman, has eliminated its full time editorial team The layoff was unexpected and laid-off staff were unable to export their email contacts

You do not debate on whether or not to support a tyrant's war. You strategize on how to stop him.

Again, notice that we are not having the conversation we should. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀'𝘀 𝗱𝘂𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗿𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿: 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝘆𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘁. Instead, we're debating the tyrant's - a known traitor's - war. "We do not trust our liberty to a particular branch. We need one branch to check the others...

"I didn't think the leopard would eat my face, too" is an all-too common refrain as those disconnected to the humanity around us discover the dangerous nature of their disconnect and lack of empathy.

They entered a country run and ravaged by a violent felon who's committing genocide within US shores but didn't think this could happen to them. “I was aware,” she nods. “But I never thought it would have any impact on my holiday.” And therein lies the crux of our problem. +

"What work does left-populist economic rhetoric or policymaking do in societies where rightists control all the levers of power and won’t give them up without a fight? ... Criminals will need to go to jail; collaborators will need to be exposed; their best tools will need to be confiscated."

Do this first: "Google AOC + Munich. Open a new tab and do it right now. No leading words, just enter AOC + Munich and scroll the headlines." ----- "When democracy doesn’t deliver people a decent standard of living, they will be tempted by the false promises of strongmen."

“Leftists and centrists alike believe anti-Trump politics have failed, and should be jettisoned, in favor of economic appeals.” This infuriates me b/c it was Dems who made it true. Voters showed up in 2018 and 2020 then Dems did nothing about Trump. The BETRAYAL is why voters left, not the message.

There is a flock of 60 evening grosbeaks here for the last couple of days. I love them! 💛🤍🖤 #vt #birds

It's an extraordinary difference, and not the same as when competitors let loose in the exhibit performances after the pressure of competition. The freedom and relaxation radiate through her, unfettered by the ceaseless stress, weight, and exhaustion of abusive discipline.

I grew up in South Florida which is actually culturally northeast, but my first "real" job was in Gainesville, FL (approaching Deep South). I pass as white, but my white colleagues would turn on me because they don't like my politics. I heard racist slurs there I've never heard before or since.

Watching a genocide for 2 and a half years really changes you. I know there have been other genocides, and even concurrent genocides, but this one was right before our eyes in a completely new way. More than the images I've seen, it's the indifference from so many that has worn me down.

I personally very much suspect white folks of being evil enough to report their neighbors to ICE, that is not in conflict with anything I've known white folks to be my whole life as a Black southerner. They stab you the second you turn your back.

"Smallholder farmers produce 60% to 80% of coffee, but received just 0.36% of the funds needed to adapt to the impacts of the climate crisis in 2021... Without help, there is only so much they can do, Dadi said. “To safeguard coffee supplies, governments need to act on climate change

Any other Click and Clack lovers?

So how much of the effort to avoid the Epstein files had been about preventing the knowledge Epstein was President Vladimir Putin's wealth manager? + H/t @michaelianblack.bsky.social

It's an update on John Kenneth Galbraith's brilliant critique: "The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness"
