The combination of government shut down, SNAP payments missed, flights cut, runaway inflation, deepening unemployment, federal agents in the streets, and gaudy White House renovations seems like it has some turbulent historical precedents.

“Possibly the greatest #ThiccSix of all time” @mikegolicjr.bsky.social HE WOULD NOT BE DENIED

Car repos are at their highest since 2009. Over 1.7 million vehicles were repossessed last year as auto loans cannot be paid back. The US now has a record $1.7 trillion in auto loans. Americans are drowning in debt. If you want a new car wait, there will be many deals soon.

I don’t understand why Trump’s approval rating is finally slipping when he’s building a golden ballroom at his house while actively stopping 42 million Americans from getting food stamps, 40% of whom are children

I was a fan of packing the court. I think now we should go the other direction though

congrats to everyone for thinking this through before signing very big contracts to put it on every student’s device at the school or university you run

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market. This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

It looks like the USDA is going to do the right thing and comply with the court orders. I ask all Governors to move quickly in moving the money out to the people.

Not that there’s anyone on here this will include, but: I’m planning on being a pill to the spouses of ICE workers, pills to their families, until I die. If I’m around in 2060 and some nice old lady of any ethnicity mentions that her husband worked for ICE, I’m heckling them as a murderfucker.

NEWS — The Oregon Department of Human Services has issued 100% of November SNAP benefits, per an alert on their website. I've received reports that the funds have already hit recipients' EBT accounts. www.oregon.gov/odhs/news/Pa...

A lot of discourse hasn't caught up with how the strong/somewhat breakdown is even more brutal. His core base of strong support is already falling below a quarter of voters! Even what approval he has is increasingly soft and halfhearted. Whereas disapprovers are much firmer in really hating the man.

Dem gains in this week's elections erased the inroads Trump made with non-white, young, and low-income voters in 2024. In fact, the R-to-D shift from 24 to 25 is double Trump's gains from 20-24. Claims of a GOP political realignment have been highly exaggerated www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trumps-win...

I really believe that as a parent, you have a serious obligation to ban Chatbots from your house and all devices and educate your kids not to trust or engage with them from an early age

not the most important part of this story but can we talk about how they made a robot that talks like reddit? the entire model of "intelligence" and human interaction this approximates is "forum douche." they built a thing that simulates posting online

this is how a guy you know only from playing 600 hours of battlefield 6 online would talk to you on discord. it's fucking bizarre

I’m reading the book Raven Rock from @vermontgmg.bsky.social and came across one of my new favorite historical facts. When they were designing one of the bunkers they would use to evacuate congresspeople in a nuclear war, they kept a strategic reserve of bourbon and wine in case any were alcoholics

we now know that it’s not illegal to throw sandwiches at ICE agents, an important development

Retail holiday hiring is expected to come in at the lowest number of seasonal workers in at least 15 years, according to the National Retail Federation.

Best Philly-area projectile sandwiches: 1. Wawa Gobbler (wet, messy, you don’t want to eat it anyway) 2. McGlinchey’s hot dog (potentially toxic) 3. Verona Cheesesteak (could cause actual bodily injury from its heft) 4. Phillies Hot Dog (shot from Phanatic canon) All else reserved for eating

I'm hard-pressed to think of a non-Jewish Democratic politician who has spoken to Jews with more respect and empathy than Mamdani. The fact that many Jewish establishment orgs are going after him while staying relatively mum on resurgent Nazism is a disaster, both for American Jews and in general.

My flight almost landed and then just shot back up at PHL. Hoping to land again but just in case, fuck Donald Trump
