Not sure whether y'all can see this YouTube video from here, but give it a try. This is a neat, articulate summary of all the ways #Trump and his party have shafted all the non-filthy-rich people who voted for him, each group thinking he'd be shafting someone else. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5V4U...

Anyone ever heard of Milon's Secret Castle? I tried playing that because I was bored with Super Mario Bros, but it just never went anywhere. One big room full of stuff happening, nothing indicating progress, no sign that there even was a next stage or level, let alone how/where to get there.

Yo, speaking of which, has anyone heard from ol' Mitch since that AP article claiming he'd phoned in (or whatever) to say he'd be voting remotely...? Any corroboration or confirmation? I should think there'd be a LOT of Republicans eager to rub it in all our meanie liberal faces...right? 😕

If Bluesky is a "liberal bubble," it could be for the same reason it's a "heliocentrist bubble," an "evolutionist bubble," a "science-affirming bubble," a "non-racist bubble," a "Holocaust-affirming bubble," etc. etc. -- because we've been proven right and those who are wrong don't want to be here.

This is the truth that refutes "conservative" "supply-side" economic dogma in its entirety. All the wealth-creation done by "entrepreneurs" was done in response to consumer demand. Denial of this truth is how we get a parasite class of techbros inflicting garbage on us and calling it "progress."

One of the things I hate about people who cry "Stop using Amazon!" is that they never have lists of resources that can replace Amazon. In that spirit, I'm going to list my favorite non-Amazon online book merchants. None of them deliver as quickly, but they are reliable. 🧵 #Booksky

This is why we need to have a Congress who will totally and unequivocally zilch all funding for this war, and never let our country be forced or dragged into a war just because one senile incompetent President started it and says we have to finish it.

Today's #WaPo has an editorial by one C. Jarrett Dieterle ("legal policy fellow at the #ManhattanInstitute"), titled "Unions are on a comeback. Americans are paying the price." Which sounds like he's trying to imply that #Unions, and #workers who want to form them, aren't American.

Octavia E. Butler, 1998:
From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING

Choose your leaders

with wisdom and forethought.

To be led by a coward

is to be controlled

by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool


is to be led

by the opportunists

who control the fool.

To be led by a thief

is to offer up

your most precious treasures

to be stolen.
To be led by a liar


is to ask

to be told lies.

To be led by a tyrant

is to sell yourself

and those you love

into slavery.

One of the earliest/first targets of Trump's attack on Iran was a girls' school. Around 80 innocent kids are confirmed murdered so far. There's absolutely no excuse for Trump's stupid sadism, or his gross incompetence. www.aljazeera.com/video/newsfe...

I dunno, having Trump as Commander in Chief makes autonomous weapons sound like a good idea, especially if they're built by a "radical left woke company"...could they have them up and running in time to refuse to bomb Iran?

Clickbait headline: "How Did We Go from Hunting Communists to Electing Open Socialists?" Simple: We now see that unregulated capitalism is wrong, and socialism, or at least social-democracy, is right; and that all that post-WWII anti-communist crusade was never more than a scam. Next question...?

This really puts Donald Trump's "character" in perspective -- not to mention the "character" of everyone else in the family he could have been spending Christmas with. Seriously, where were Uday, Qusay, Ivanka & Jared, Lara, or even Barron? Did any of them even call him?

The holiday’s real roots lie in abolition, liberation, and anti-racism. Let’s reconnect to that legacy.

As a technical writer, I'm gonna add one little quibble that I think says a lot: "JP Morgan Chase" is one name of one company -- and a famous name too -- but Trump's Xhitpost had it as TWO names, separated by a comma. Does he really think "JP Morgan" and "Chase" are two different individuals?

I'm pretty sure I've never subscribed or got an account on Spotify; but sometime earlier this year, Spotify started to activate on my laptop whenever I turned it on. I guess I must've downloaded that app some time ago, but I don't remember when or why.
