Billionaires are using a loophole to avoid Medicare taxes. Closing it — and eliminating other ways around the tax for wealthy business owners — could raise more than $250 billion over 10 years for the program. (Published Dec. 2024)

"i would think" let me stop you right there

I’ll never forgive that stupid ass Showtime show for portraying him as some crazed ranting lunatic when every contemporary account of him described him as one of the most lucid and clear-minded thinkers of his time, whose actions were driven by a devotion to abolition not bc he had some screw loose

Happy 226th Birthday to John Brown, the only white boy to ever truly understand the assignment

A got to do a ton of fantastic work during my guest spot in Vancouver, but this was definitely the stand out/biggest project of the bunch!! #tattoo #tattoosky

On a Microsoft Teams call, @josephcox.bsky.social interacted with a deepfake version of himself in realtime. This is the first time a journalist has exposed how the Haotian AI software works. Read now: www.404media.co/hello-boss-i...

Those who have sent me AI shit the last few years and getting upset when I’m not impressed should watch something that truly impresses me.

Congrats to the May winners🌟🌟🌟 The full version is available on Patreon

PSYCHOSEXUAL PATHOLOGY!!! IT IS ALL PSYCHOSEXUAL PATHOLOGY!!

I don't know if @aoc.bsky.social's told this story about orientation before, but I've never heard it

Sharks, I've invented a glove that gives you two extra long fingers so you can plug in tiny aux cable wires behind the computer monitor more easily.

This is excellent news.

oh that's a relief! i thought that everyone that has to pay for gas would be worried, but i'm very glad to hear that donald trump has no concerns over obscene prices that are hard to pay for

I'm hearing there may be more nuance to this story, so I'm deleting the post in this screenshot for now because I like to be as accurate as possible. I'll link addenda to this post. tl,dr: This may be a screw up in billing instead of theft. I still have questions, but not full answers yet.

We should fully fund science.

improvement comes from within and without. suffering comes from within and without. the internal world and the external world are always interconnected. this is why taking an interest in the external world is vital to your own growth, and why we will only find collective liberation, not individual.

the difference in engagement between this post and the DBT self improvement one is telling everyone wants to better their life, but they don't realize (yet, perhaps) that you can't without bettering society. many more of your "personal" problems are caused by capitalism than you even realize

If you want to make sense of the "chaos" in the world right now. I highly recommend studying dialectical materialism. It's basically the bloodborne equivalent of gaining Insight. You will begin to see how all things are interconnected, and what must be done if we want a better future for all.

the use of the word "ilk" is almost always a HUGE tip-off

This is SO DOPE. My biggest complaint out here has always been a lack of trains, but since moving in 2015, we got the beach train, the LAX train (almost) and now the D which runs through a bunch of neighborhoods I frequent.

This physical was so fun to work on! If you haven't picked up art of rally and you're a fan of racing at all definitely grab it

Not to victim blame but this balloon does feel like it's asking for trouble

listen rich people, if you want everybody to stop paying taxes that don't directly benefit them, you're gonna have a real bad time

So @jvl.bsky.social once called this one of the most important pieces ever published at @thebulwark.com Of course, this essay is built on the preeminent work of people like @hcrichardson.bsky.social @jbf1755.bsky.social and @angiemaxwell.bsky.social But I think it is especially relevant today.

Spectacular? I dunno. Scary? Not sure. Embarrassingly overwritten? Definitely

Sorry, new follower, putting “Web 3, AI-Artist” in your bio means I think there’s a possibility you will a) mint my work for an NFT, b) train on my work, or c) want to talk with me about how I should do those things so I’m not “left behind” This is Bluesky. No games. Into the blocked abyss.

I need non-Montréalers to know they're screening playoff games for free in music venues and theatres. It's incredible.

we owned them, not leased them, and they didn't need an account we had to register to use them and their functionality didn't suddenly vanish if the company was shut down by private equity or break down after 2 years honestly I'm glad this clickbait article exists to put this on normies' radar
