It looks like someone has made a correction:

Following recent media attention on the "Ghostberg" pseudonym, Leah Greenberg has clarified that she never dressed up in a ghost costume with her husband
. The reference is a hallucinated anecdote that has circulated online.
However, if you're looking for ghost costume ideas, a variety of options are available, from classic designs to more stylized and creative interpretations. Here are some images for inspiration:

The Leah "Ghostberg" misunderstanding was caused by the merging of two separate online rumors involving Indivisible co-founder Leah Greenberg
. The anecdote about Greenberg dressing in a ghost costume with her husband, Ezra Levin, is an online fabrication that has been debunked.
The two online threads that contributed to the confusion were:

The "Ghostberg" nickname: Right-wing activist and conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer has repeatedly used the pejorative term "Ghostberg" in online posts to refer to Greenberg, particularly on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter). This slur is a portmanteau of "ghost," likely referencing a shadowy conspiracy, and Greenberg's surname.

I was also curious about the impact of Brazilian tariffs on beef, although I'm guessing it's too soon. Still, if people complained about eggs, how will they complain about the fast-food burger costs? If people complain loudly, especially in social/mainstream media, maybe Trump Admin will back off.

Trump claimed the average price of gas had fallen (in several cities) to around $2, but *for now* we have the data showing it hovering above $3. I guess people should get him to name at least 1 city which validates his claims.

~48% of Americans don't know about the budget bill, so the challenge is to inform everyone so they can elect people who can change course. Ideally they elect a veto-proof majority. The road won't be that smooth. People will need to pay attention to election boards and to fight Trump's voting EO

So looks like there was an attempt to fix it... although it's a bit funny... AI makes a prediction on what is likely to happen on May 3, 2025 based on a *previous* May 3, 2025 protest.

On Saturday, May 3, 2025, a demonstration is likely to take place at the University of California, Berkeley. This is based on the fact that the previous Saturday, May 3, 2025, saw a pro-Palestinian group interrupt the UC Berkeley undergraduate graduation ceremony. Additionally, there have been past protests at UC Berkeley, including the "Rally to Defend Our University" on March 20, 2025, and a "Stand up for Science" rally on March 7, 2025. These events highlight the potential for future protests, though the specific nature of the protest on Saturday, May 3, 2025, is not explicitly mentioned in the provided search results.

This is very weird. Did a search on Google for "berkeley protests saturday" and got this AI write up in the *past* tense:

AI write up of Google search for protest events on May 3rd (tomorrow).

"On Saturday, May 3, 2025, a pro-Palestinian protest interrupted the undergraduate graduation ceremony at UC Berkeley. Additionally, a "Rally to Defend Our University" organized by the Berkeley Faculty for the Freedom to Learn focused on protesting actions against Columbia University and other schools, including federal funding rescissions and threats from the U.S. Department of Justice. There was also a "Stand up for Science" rally with a march through campus protesting potential cuts to federal funding for scientific research. "

Source is from Brian Tyler Cohen talking to Rep Brendan Boyle Topic: Medicaid cuts www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Gcm... Diagram is *intended* to make it easier to see, rather than doing purely mental "math." Republicans are counting on complexity to hide how Medicaid is being targeted.

Diagram to show complexity used to hide Medicaid Budget cuts

Required budget cuts are listed by committee.
Medicaid included in Energy and Commerce budget.
(Everything not Medicaid) is approximately $440 B.
Required budget cut is $880 B.
$440 B less than $880 B, so cut will have to eat into Medicaid

I do my social media on the computer, so I acknowledge this probably looks terrible on a cell phone.

This looks amateurish because, yeah, I'm an amateur. It's something I've wanted to see in a meme (done better by someone besides me 🙂). But here goes attempt 1.
