(scrolling through job postings for 20 minutes) Maybe this doesn't matter. Maybe nothing matters at all. Maybe the industrial revolution was a mistake

idk i just feel like AI automation is going to benefit one very specific income bracket tremendously and leave everyone else in the dust but hey maybe three ghosts will intervene on christmas eve or something

thinking about her again

Still LA, ICE is gathered again to start another operation after tear gassing civilians for hours at Paramount. A massive ICE presence stands across the street from civilians. This is live right now.

There is not a single congressional district in the U.S. where more than 15% of voters support cuts to SNAP, the federal program that provides food assistance to millions of low-income Americans.

Feliz día mundial a las abejitas!

I don't know if there's ever been a culture more in love with charlatans than ours. "Success" defined entirely by how good you are at tricking people into giving you money. An entire country of aspiring slop merchants

When the IT guy takes over my computer remotely

I will not play grand theft auto because it perpetuates car culture :/

I am not a fan of the new name. "Pope Leo XIV." No. Pope names, like numbered movie sequels, should stop at X, and ideally V. If you gotta name yourself Pope Leo, make it Pope Leo: Resurgence or something

When the FBI seized Linda Martin's life savings, it didn’t give a reason. How could it? She hadn’t been charged with a crime. Instead, it sent a notice listing hundreds of federal offenses that might justify a seizure—without saying how Martin was connected to any of them. /6

Went outside today and the tariffs are painfully apparent. I never knew we imported that much whimsy and good natured small talk until taking part in the social economy today

Bad AAPL

you get tomorrow off if your religion is foolishness

Why is there so much hate on Tesla, an EV maker, instead of just fighting to have Musk fired and replaced? Some of us have old ass Teslas from before the Muskpocalypse and Nazi shit. The sister supercharger stations are great. There's good stuff to save. Fuck Elon. But let's keep the good stuff.

Unilever ousted the CEO of Ben & Jerry’s! Many articles are saying because of “progressive politics” but let’s be specific here, they fired CEO David Stever because be stood up for PALESTINE 🇵🇸 This was popular btw and isn’t even about sales. Fuck Unilever, boycott them and Fuck the Zionists!

Checking my bank account every day for a deposit from the government since I've been hearing about all the money they've been saving lately. Nothing yet but it's probably coming soon

Not suspicious at all

Another thing I made this year. Pigeon history!

Thoughts?

Day 7 of #ArtAdventCalendar is my seed bomb brick. In the Netherlands, sidewalk bricks sometimes go missing so I'm making replacements packed full of flower seeds. This is the first prototype, modelled off the bricks in front of my house. It contains lobelia and sweet alyssum seeds.

Join us in our demand for the ERA! The Equal Rights Amendment is the duly ratified 28th Constitutional Amendment that guarantees equal rights to everyone regardless of sex. The ERA might be our last chance to protect abortion rights before Trump takes office. greenpartywashington.org/2024/12/01/p...

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record. They run them bc people react to them the most. If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change. It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

Slow. Clap.

Last night, 19 Senators voted to end illegal arms sales to Israel. We stood up to AIPAC, the Democratic Senate leadership, and the Biden administration. We must continue going forward to end illegal arms sales and hold Netanyahu accountable for his war crimes.

I think adults should get a personal pan pizza for reading books too

Artwork by artist Huriana Kopeke-Te Aho showing the powerful moment when #NewZealand MP Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke tore up the Bill put forward by an alt-right MP proposing to dissolve a deeply important treaty with the #Māori people. The moment sent shockwaves across the nation and around the world!

I think Musk Twitter made likes private to boost engagement, since people will not be held by their reputation when liking things as much. This of course led to higher engagement with degeneracy/obscenity and hate, ironically making identity discourse even more common

Guardian will no longer post on Elon Musk’s X from its official accounts. The decision is due to disinformation, racism and hate being platformed. The Guardian has more than 80 accounts on X with approximately 27 million followers.

wait why does the dept of government efficiency have two co-chairs
