Lobbyism fungerar. Och därmed fungerar inte demokratin som den bör göra. Och så länge det ser ut såhär så kommer skattepengar fortsätta att delas ut som vinst hos aktiebolagen som kommer fortsätta att tillåtas inom vård, skola och omsorg. Och det är så in i helvete tröttsamt!

A VCR never sold my private info to a nazi

Peace when markets are open War when markets are closed

In 1999, I was playing a decker in Shadowrun, and tried to distract a guard by hacking a water fountain to overflow, and my GM said "why would a water fountain be on the network? That's fucking stupid. No you can't try." Well it's 2026 and I just want you to know, Phil, that I FUCKING CALLED IT!

Göteborgs universitet jämför väljares och politikers åsikter i massor av frågor. Frågor där skillnaden mellan vad väljare och politiker tycker är störst: - Sex timmars arbetsdag - Mindre offentlig sektor - Förbjuda vinster i välfärden - Privatisera sjukvården Lobbyism fungerar.

This is what happens after 30 if you don’t stretch.

Three of the ten most viewed bills this week are Trump impeachment articles.

Eh, bra? Den har lurt meg nok ganger, faenmeg på tide at jeg vant en runde eller to.

Klimatiltak er så dyrt.

they fucking Legolas and gimli'ed the Anglican church?????

Til Susis store fortvilelse har vi hatt besøk av en Mjauritz i kveld. Veldig pratsom, første gang han har kommet helt inn. Fremstår som en sosial, men usikker katt. Blir en interessant situasjon å følge med på fremover.

The 'Musk used SpaceX to buy Cybertrucks' story is going around but Electrek was on this shit awhile ago! There's so much scammy shit out there in the wild about Elon and yet the markets keep floating his ass

It’s like when the 2017 Super Bowl ads were like “perhaps we should treat our fellow citizens with respect and dignity” and Republicans panned them for being anti-Trump. The important thing is that there was zero self reflection.

Vi snakker for mye om hva barn og unge gjør på sosiale medier og ALT FOR LITE om mediedietten til folk 65+, som sitter med en algoritmestyrt høytrykkspyler av AI-generert desinformasjon på en plattform der de er timesvis hver eneste dag I motsetning til femtenåringene er dette folk som stemmer.

As wealth concentrates, so does power — the power to influence elections, shape policy, tilt markets and define the terms of public debate. Taxing billionaires is not radical. What is radical is allowing a system where extreme wealth exists alongside widespread hardship.

"The rise of extreme wealth is one of the clearest signs of this imbalance. In 1987, billionaires held wealth equal to 3% of global GDP. Today this tiny elite, just 0.0001% of the world population, owns the equivalent of *16%* of world GDP in wealth."

Mental health care

Helsevesen: du må ha diagnose for å få adgang til medisin/inngrep/tilbud/oppfølging NAV: du må ha diagnose for å KANSKJE få adgang til tilskudd, ytelser, uførepensjon, hjelpemidler Denna fyren: sykdomsgevinst 😔😔😔😔😔

great work everyone keep it up they are pigs and fascists and they should be reminded of it every day forever

I thought I was cynical. I’m not cynical enough

Hvorfor får skravleklassen alltid bare uttale seg i hytt og gevær om ulike ting de har null peiling på? Jeg uttaler meg svært sjeldent om hoftetransplantasjoner, selv om det er svært mange flere som angrer på det enn som angrer på å bytte kjønn.

Norge har et nazistisk parti igjen nå som Alliansen gikk dukken. Det nazistiske partiet heter Norgesdemokratene. Spørsmålet er hva vi skal gjøre med at disse driver og organiserer seg, skal ha konferanse på nytt den 13. juni (i Oslo) og kommer til å være på gater og torg under valgkamp.

WE LIVE ON THE PART THAT ISNT WATER MY GUY

Er det noen som følger offentleglova og arkivlova mindre enn politiet?

The cover:

Italian magazine L'Espresso put a completely real photo of an Israeli settler mocking a Palestinian girl on its cover and the Israeli government is trying to imply it was AI generated or photoshopped without actually saying that

Hey, look at Substack promoting Andrew Tate as the #1 new bestseller. The company's amoral leadership & backers will platform anyone, even ludicrously toxic rapists & human traffickers.

This is NUTS www.thehandbasket.co/p/trump-usai...

You know what JD, I agree with you that religion should be kept out of the government, but you started it and he's gonna finish it

they're saying that all traces of Viktor are being erased so thoroughly that he's now just an orban legend

transphobia is a luxury belief, which is why it’s so prevalent among beltway types who don’t have real problems

Guessing this is why he's having 'Executive Time' until 2 PM today ... 😉

"for unknown reasons, my mortal enemies appear to be concerned with the core essence of humanity in a way that my allies are not. oh well, better not think about it too hard."

Happy 20 years of Neil banging out the tunes 🐀🎶🎉

so close to getting it

Not the onion.

To my non tech normies, PSA: when you share a link, everything after the ? is tracking. Those “query parameters” tell companies exactly how you arrived, what app you clicked, which ad or email sent you, sometimes a unique identifier tied to you. You can delete everything after the question mark.

people will tell you it’s complicated but it’s really not

Final scene of The Pitt S2E14 is heartbreaking. That final episode is gonna hit like a freight train.

If you don't let us kill everyone we might need to use pronouns again

Reagan’s OMB Director:

Okay CTA. This is a good sign.

Here is also the pic of Reid Wiseman and Jeremy Hansen - the first non-American to go around another world too. #ArtemisII

LOL, trying to stay offline and do my work, and friends are sending me "LOOK AT THIS NEW PIC!" texts .... This one is worth it. First PoC and first woman to go around another world. Don't stop talking about this point. It's important. #ArtemisII

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I. I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

I cannot stress this enough: Vegas gave Musk millions to build us a supposed public transportation system. Instead he built basically an Uber tunnel for Teslas that only goes FROM ONE END OF A CONVENTION CENTER TO THE OTHER. Literally just gets you to the other side of a building.

Contrary to public perception a huge % of pregnant teenagers in the 1990s were impregnated by adult men. The younger they were, the larger the average age gap between mother and father was. Fixing teen pregnancy was in part a clampdown on statutory rape. That's what conservatives want to reverse.

I’ve never seen a map that makes more sense.
