Has the attention span of a chipmunk on coffee. I'm just a liberal old broad living in Pennsyltucky so I tend to keep to myself. Pittsburgh's the "Big City" to where I'm from. Expect mostly likes and reposts with an occasional doodle or landscape photo.

Breaking: medical experts have named the ongoing wave of diarrhea from contaminated food infected in thousands of Americans this summer "Elon's curse" in homage to Mexico's diarrheal "Aztec curse" because it's almost certainly caused by DOGE's negligent cuts to US food safety.

When you've got rid of all the mosques but the cost of life still rise and you've built your fortressed borders but the NHS still dies and the Muslims are all gone and your town's a wall of white but corporate vultures are still pillaging every facet of our lives. Who will you blame then? What will you have gained? A badge for barbarism against the backdrop of decay

In history class, I never understood how "advanced" civilizations could collapse. It just didn't seem plausible. 

Anyway, I've seen enough. I get it now.

Fascist corruption 101:
1. TFG fires top three layers of IRS management and replaces them with loyal MAGA lackeys.
2. TFG sued the tax agency over the leak of tax returns for $10 billion.
3. Justice Department lawyers are reluctant to represent IRS against TFG because they will lose their jobs.
4. IRS lackeys will settle out of court per TFG's secret instructions. 
5. Any settlement payout will come from our money, probably billions of dollars.

The fact that MAGA is having a Yes Kings protest is the ultimate plot twist in this madhouse, proving that we've finally completed the 360° pivot from" Don't Tread on Me" to" Please Step on Me, Your Majesty"

I guess the fact that Brave New world and Nineteen Eighty-Four both involved technology as an important tool of tyranny says that yes, that was always how it was expected to happen.
 And smartphones seem to have been the inflection point. Despite how much they spy on us, there are almost no adults in the "free world" who don't carry one everywhere they go.

I've never seen anyone who complains about government spending on healthcare or student loan forgiveness bring that same energy to military spending. 
The Pentagon has failed seven audits in a row accounting for $4 trillion in assets, yet the Department of War's budget keeps going up.

We don't win back democracy by fucking around fighting other voters. We win by making this a class war. Phenomenally rich people are using everyone. Text them into submission. We could buy schools, hospitals, roads, fishing ponds, public hunting land, hiking trails, public buses, healthcare, skate parks and dirt bike tracks, you name it. We just all need to realize that Zuckerberg and Musk are full of shit and won't leave, and if they do, we still win.

Every single one of the 86 corporate Democrats who voted to "condemn socialism" and was in Congress when Biden used taxpayer money to bail out the banks, supported Biden using taxpayer money to bail out the banks.

They believe in socialism for the wealthy but rugged individualism for the working class. MLK called them hypocrites and for good reason.

The jobs that can be replaced with AI are the jobs that companies already gave up on doing well. If you're already outsourced your customer service to an overseas call center whose workers are not empowered to solve any of your customers'problems, why not fire those workers and replace them with chatbots? The chatbots also can't solve anyone's problems and they're even cheaper than overseas call center workers. Excellent analysis by @pluralistic
