And meanwhile, in many states, like here in Texas, there is actually a subminimum wage for service industry workers that has not been raised since the early 90s! It’s legal to pay those workers only $2.13 an hour. That needs to change as well.

Please also-How about eliminating the loophole for service industry workers who make the subminimum wage of $2.13 an hour in many states (like Texas), which has not gone up in OVER 30 YEARS?!

A reminder that being in this country without documentation is a civil offense. They’re sending soldiers in choppers to enforce the federal equivalent of a speeding ticket.

Revisiting this… if the Pres didn’t kill the bipartisan immigration bill last year, immigration courts, judges and lawyers would be funded to handle all of these cases in a legal and constitutional manner. But, then he couldn’t campaign on the issue, seize more power, send in troops and make more $.

I just submitted my latest super8mm short film, "Reunited in Yokohama" to RIFF Awards - Rome Independent Film Festival, ArtWalk Ventura Cinefest, and Red Rock Film Festival — Utah via FilmFreeway.com!

Loved that movie so much as a kid. 😆🙌⚔️👩🏼‍🦰

Russian bot farms use paid individuals to spread misinformation, continuing KGB-style “active measures” from the Cold War. Here’s how you can spot them 👇 (1/7)

Because it’s actually just a trap excuse to pull Texas women over & subject them to questioning about their bodies and reproductive functions and their rights, especially as they lose court cases about restricting women’s constitutionally protected right to interstate travel while possibly pregnant.

Someone has to start filling the empty seats over at Fox.

Not riding your shopping cart to your car is the first sign of depression.

When the topic is women the conflict is that women are failing society. When the topic is men it's that society is failing them.

Well, over half the population is female and this administration ordered doge to cancel any grants or programs that include words like “female” or “woman”, so, by their fraudulent definition, serving the population would, by default of their definition, involve “DEI” about half of the time.

Just a reminder - something that could have helped facilitate due process would be more immigration judges & courts & investment in the system… all things in the bipartisan Border Deal that was about to pass til unelected private citizen candidate Trump ordered the GOP to kill it for political gain.

Alienate our allies Crash the market Devalue the dollar Spike prices Dismantle the federal government Cause immigrants to live in fear Make others not want to come here If you made a blueprint for how to hurt 🇺🇸, it would look a lot like this Putin is enjoying the show

1 in 5 women experience a miscarriage. An American woman is now imprisoned for hers.

It has been two weeks since a Georgia woman was arrested for her miscarriage, and not one major national outlet has covered the story

Keep making art. Keep making art. Keep making art. Keep making art. Keep making art. Keep making art. Keep making art. Keep making art. Keep making art. Keep making art. Keep making art. Keep making art.

High D. Of course.

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

Ya know who DOES love unstaffed national parks? Unregulated Militias looking for space to train.

•CFPB protects citizens from predatory & fraudulent Banking/financial policy. •Musk wants X to begin Banking/financial capabilities. •Musk directs doge & head of CFPB to close CFPB. Pretty clear storyline here. His ONLY interests are conflicts of interest. (See also: NASA, FAA, etc)

The US govt website purge has highlighted something that we in the heritage industry have been talking about for years - the fragility of digital only records. 🧵with practical suggestions.

FYI, Cyber trucks are 17 times more likely to erupt into flames and kill its driver than a Ford Pinto 🔥 So, they aren’t just ugly, expensive and a sign of being a billionaire conman’s mark, they also are likely to burst into flames (while locking you inside.) fuelarc.com/evs/its-offi...

The 2 main things I’ll miss leaving meta products is 1. connection to old friends/acquaintances and 2. sharing my art. So… Here’s my latest image from my shoot with the lovely Ripley. Hair and makeup by Angel Chumbley. Photo by me. Heidi Van Horne / VintageVanHorne ©️ 2025

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Hey @og-crashfan.bsky.social - thanks for the follow, I saw your name and thought I’d mention that you just followed someone who once got paid by Maxim magazine to play “the new” (at the time) Crash Bandicoot game and take photos with players at E3. 😆🤷🏻‍♀️

The OpenAI people crying about their IP being stolen is comedy gold. One bright spot in the dystopian hellscape. Keep it coming.

No, I don't need a bloody copilot for this document, thank you. Writing is, in no small part, a tool for thinking. If you outsource that element to a machine that cannot think, you shouldn't be surprised if, at the end of the process, neither you nor your reader are any the wiser.

If I've learned one thing about grieving and difficult times of late it is this: Don't deny the things that bring you moments of joy and relief. Those moments are not a betrayal, they are necessary to keep on going with the process of dealing with the difficult things.

The true purpose of AI is to provide wealth’s access to talent while removing talent’s access to wealth.

I always say what I’m buying is renting the dream. The sooner I check the results, the less dream time I got to rent. Have 2 tickets from the start of the year. Almost ready to check. Not yet. 😆

Thousands of MAGA are upset they traveled to DC to witness the Inauguration and now it’s being held inside the Capitol Building. Just go in. Doors didn’t stop you on Jan 6. Trump loves you. Go in.

I wish Americans cared as much about the loss of democracy as the loss of TikTok.

If you're an artist going to RedNote, I'd wait. A lawyer got her assistant to translate the Mandarin TOS. Basically China owns everything you post there and they can sell your art, your designs, your everything through companies like SheIn and Temu.

Finished my soundtrack for my latest short film (without ever seeing my footage!), and turned it in today before the deadline. Now to wait til May for the results. Here’s hoping I make the top select screenings!! 🖤🎞️🎥🙌🤞🙏✨ #ReunitedinYokohama #afilmbyHeidiVanHorne #straight8 #8mmfilm #shortfilm

Price gouging after the fires is illegal, and that includes rent gouging, which we've already seen. Despicable.

FEMA has issued a guide on how to apply for federal aid if you've been impacted by the wildfires. Aid may include money for food, water, baby formula, breastfeeding supplies, medication, or even with basic home repairs and personal property losses. www.huffpost.com/entry/southe...

SoCal friends, I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. A few things I wish I’d known as we evacuated ahead of a wildfire (that took our home in 2021) 🧵

Idk why people are surprised Greg Abbott did that. Ignoring the death of women IS his brand.
