#ICYMI Happy summer solstice! 🌞 🌍 This year's solstice happened at exactly 04:42 CEST on 21 June, the moment the Sun reached its northernmost point in the sky. Viewed from space, these images capture a full year of shifting light and shadow, from one June solstice to the next 🧪🔭

This is the type of solution we need to be working on for many aspects of life.

President Pakled is so pathetic and weak that he had to bomb another country in an attempt to make up for his failed birthday parade. His helmet isn't big enough to lead a country. His flex shows how pathetic his bluster really is.

do you mean he's sulking in his tent like Achilles?

Thinking of a hero I knew and admired.

TACO Tuesday! 😅

According to conservatives, it seems that reality now has a "liberal bias" since reality shows that they are wrong on every level.

the problem with modern technology is that it is not being developed and designed to serve people, it is being developed and designed to serve corporations and capitalism, therefore it is being designed to hinder, cripple, and exploit people

The act of public officials repeatedly lying to the American people, after being corrected, should be considered treason and punishable by catapult.

Senior's Guide to Not Being a Noob: Junior's Survival 101

I read a fiction novel about some videogame programmers that had to stop a piece of software that was originally made for gold farming MMORPG auction houses that got loose and was devouring the stock market. Got me thinking... why hasn't some hacker collective decided...

It's a good thing people cannot hear my thoughts... they would be scared, confused, and rather horny... they would not be able to handle it.

Got a message from one of my senators today. And yes, it is good that they are stepping up more these days. But what all of them fail to recognize and accept responsibility for is letting it get to this point in the first place! So...half-a-cookie for you, Senator?

In Luigi's name we pray, RAmen.

If you want to eliminate poverty you must eliminate the system that creates it. Love each other, destroy capitalism.

It is far past time.

I hate having to participate in this hellish system in order to survive while trying to build a better system.

The stock market is a grift. How can investors continue to reap profits after their investment has been paid back to them? That money comes out of the pockets of the workers.

All profit is immoral.

I grow tired of having to tolerate maliciously ignorant people.

The lovely ice from yesterday.

Yep. This. All. Of. This.

What would it take for you to care about the wellbeing of people radically different from yourself, including people you are repulsed by or people that you hate?

Strive to do only that which is right.

They intend to gaslight you, it's part of how they get their jollies. Don't let them, and don't give them the attention they so desperately want. Watch only the legislation and orders, not the clowns performing. They want to wear you down.

If religious people want religious freedom, then they must choose. Either be religious and stay out of government processes trusting that the rest of us will protect their rights, or give up their religion if they want to be part of governing. They have proven they cannot be trusted to do both.

2781 people are burning down the home of 8 billion people, something must be done.

Mamma Mia, there aren't enough blue shells in this race!

Advocating for the marginalized is not bigotry against the privileged. The sooner people get that through their heads, the better off we’ll all be.

Humans that give up or surrender or never fight to claim their critical thinking skills are little more than beings that are controlled by their surroundings, only ever acting and reacting, never giving reflective thought to their actions, having denied themselves the very essence of humanity.

I'm good:

A decent human does not claim a right for themselves that they would deny to another.

People want to contribute to their communities in meaningful ways. A lot of people would be contributing creatively if they weren't forced into financial stress and low wages.

Rules for a better human civilization. 1) There should be nothing for profit, instead replace profit seeking with pride in one's work. 2) All basic needs must be met for all before luxury can be had for any. 3) Every task that can be automated, should be, freeing up people to pursue human things.

Now that #LowerDecks finale is here, let's get #LowerDecksMovies and #LowerDecksSpinoff trending!

There is no moral or ethical profit.

Capitalist lie #371 Your time is worth less than other people's time. Deprogram yourself, all of our times have equal value.

It is every person's responsibility to work to be a better person each day. Progress is the goal.

I don't know who needs to know this, but Pro Publica has an online thing that will format a letter to your US health insurance company to demand the records behind a claim denial. (which the insurance is then legally required to provide in most cases) projects.propublica.org/claimfile/

If one doesn't want their death to be celebrated, perhaps one should not amass one's fortune by denying medical coverage to others that one would not deny one's self.

Awe, look, someone is feeling left out. 🤣
