Affordability isn't the only issue to focus on. How about quality? Grit in my frozen vegetables, gritty canned vegetables-ugh. Maybe field workers are necessary? Also, the GOP doesn't like math and reading education that teaches 124 tissues in a new box is less than 174 in last year's for more $.

Exactly

Remembering John Lewis and his enduring legacy today: "You must be bold, brave and courageous and find a way ... to get in the way." ♥️

Yes, this is what would make us stronger together!

I will never again see an ICE agent without assuming they're from Proud Boys or Oath Keepers, a pardoned Jan 6 rioter or a member of the KKK.

So unemployment up. Jobless claims up. Inflation up. GDP down. Dollar plummeting. More wars abroad. Soldiers on the streets at home. By every objective metric, this administration is a disaster.

I don’t want to read about a former President’s mental decline because a journalist got a book deal. I want to read a report about the current President’s mental decline by a journalist brave enough to speak out now.

It’s the same “we” that does his antivax research. www.tandfonline.com/cms/asset/b7...

The last time global markets tanked this hard, we were in the midst of a global pandemic. This time, the virus is Donald Trump.

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

THEY ARE COMPROMISED! ALL OF THEM ARE RUSSIAN ASSETS!

You got that right!

It is no coincidence that so much of the US is poor, and the rich have gotten so rich. Stop looking down to find someone to blame. Stop looking at your neighbors to find someone to blame. LOOK UP. Inequality is destroying us.

Yep

This goes for all of them in his circle. It's truly the madmen running the asylum.

BTC is always well worth the watch!

How can all these federal job cuts not cause a recession from super high unemployment?

Hey @lizzard99.bsky.social ! I found some good news! 😺🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬😺 Rare Sighting of Dolphins in a ‘Super Pod’ Captured Gliding Through Carmel Bay off California’s Central Coast Source: Knewz share.newsbreak.com/bh0kd9ae

We’re focused on feeding our kids. Investing in our schools. Making sure child care is affordable. Regardless of the chaos unfolding in Washington, we’re making Minnesota the best state for kids to grow up.

Love orange kitties!

Please watch and share widely. We've got to do better at following our voter registration and our mail-in vote if you're still a fan after watching this. Finally, don't fall to follow up with your provisional! Every vote matters! youtu.be/8NfY2I75fdI?...

As chilling a meme as I have seen. But I agree.

To all of those here turning off liberal media, you're going to be far more disturbed from your daily social media stream than by watching MSNBC or even CNN. Seeing MAGA make Selena Gomez public enemy #1 at the moment is far more taxing to my emotional health than what I'm seeing on the news.

@brownie00.bsky.social Hi there!

@yolabona.bsky.social hello!

Say it loud for those in the back!

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "We have 8,400 firefighters working the lines; 16,000 personnel; 2,500 National Guard trying to address the issue of looting; 750 CHP as we speak; we have the EPA starting to do phase 1 of the debris removal... All of that [rightwing disinformation] is a deep distraction."

Gavin Newsom launched a website to combat the wildfire disinformation spreading about Los Angeles, because people can’t be bothered to do a simple Google search before sharing nonsense. And because people suck! Get the facts: californiafirefacts.com

It's really not about leaving the other platforms. It's about bringing people here and giving them more engagement than the other apps. That's what people want. Engagement. Takes nothing to offer it If there is a user on another app that you like, DM them and invite them here. Post and tag me

It's deeply discouraging to see how many ordinary Americans are now siding with billionaires who are giddy about getting foreign workers to work for less than our children, who have poured their dreams into STEM careers. Layoff the American, abuse the H-1B to keep salaries lower.

Good grief.

Yep

This is how it's done in intelligent countries!

Great Governor!

A little louder for the folks in the back: The development of vaccines is likely the greatest achievement of mankind. www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/202...

Interesting post on how regulatory capture at the local level aggravates income inequality

I fully agree. Let a few remain whose job it is to inform and are paid to take the abuse (though NEVER enough)!

John Cleese for the win

Literally..

Great analogy. Psychologists know sociopaths well and have warned over and over about these people. What to do to get it under control is another story.
