So here’s how I’m gonna vote come November: do you inspire me to have hope again or are you selling existential dread? I want to have hope and goals again. No more trash talk and bullying. #IndependentVoter

Just to fact-check: Obama administration *did* oversee a overhaul of the pool. It cost $35M, not $100M, and the pool did reopen (uhm, obviously?). Trump also says Obama "took the water from it," one presumes to give away with all those phones. www.factcheck.org/2026/06/trum...

South Korea's ex-Justice Minister Park sentenced to 25 years in jail over martial law, Yonhap says reut.rs/4xGqFWL

We *don't* arrest men who sexually abused children with Jeffrey Epstein because Donald Trump is guilty and scared. But we *do* arrest men who simply place their hand in the Reflecting Pool because Donald Trump is angry and embarrassed.

Reposting with alt text Trump has been repeatedly threatening Iran with violence over the past 48 hours while Israel has continued their genocide and the Iranian negotiators have had enough

Also on Apple Music!!!!

Out of curiosity I powered up and did the last final OS update of my 10 year old MacBook Pro. Works and what a wonderful experience to use again. Plus: NO AI built in! (Yes I know about security concerns that’s never gonna not be an issue.)

Everything about the current American administration is Crooked and Weird…..

Troubling. www.wired.com/story/leak-e...

Hello world. Popping in to see who’s active here. Seeing a lot of suppression on threads and I am NOT okay with that. Any threads refugees here?

Warnock to Bessent: "Manufacturers shed workers in each of the eight months after President Trump unveiled his tariffs on 'liberation day.' I would submit it's a strange liberation and a curious freedom that leaves you unemployed."

This is Wynn. Her neighborhood friends came over to ask if she could come out to play, and she didn't look back. 13/10 (IG: wynn_thegolden)

Wow! For the second time today, Trump abruptly wraps up an event and refuses to take questions from reporters

The DOJ has smoke for Jerome Powell, but none for the people in the Epstein files? 👀 Also, investigating possible criminal activity everywhere except the White House? Bold move, Pamela.

Years ago I really struggled and SC denied me food assistance. The reason? I was a woman without children. Do I want to see assistance go away? No. Because I’m not cruel and I never want anyone else who struggled like I did to hear no ever again.

The debate shouldn’t be why people have SNAP but instead, why have wages not kept up with the cost of living? Rents rising. Groceries rising. Electric up. Education up. Medical up. Insurance up. Wages? Flat. You are mad at the wrong folks.

The new battle cry: “F@ck you, make me.”

The head of the Defense Innovation Unit — the Pentagon’s in-house tech incubator — has abruptly stepped down, severing a key link with Silicon Valley.

Dude says we have to take care of our law enforcement FUCK YOU!!! YOU ASSHOLE YOU PARDONED OUR ATTACKERS

You in?

House Speaker Mike Johnson’s chief of staff arrested for DUI after Trump speech, police say

The chair of the House GOP's campaign arm told Republican lawmakers to stop holding in-person town halls amid a wave of angry backlash over the cuts undertaken by President Donald Trump's administration.

President Donald Trump made numerous false and misleading claims in his Tuesday speech to a joint session of Congress. The falsehoods spanned a variety of topics, including the economy, climate, immigration and more. Here is a fact check of some of Trump’s statements.

HOW MANY OF YOU WERE PAID TO PROTEST CAUSE I NEVER WAS WHERE IS MY MONEY!?!? Seriously they are still pushing the Soros funded crap on Truth. They have not grown yet. Seriously were you paid?

He didn’t wear a suit. But Trump treated him better than the President of Ukraine.

Did not know this existed. Start planning events!! actionnetwork.org

Elon updated DOGE, claiming to have fixed the mistakes we all pointed out. But instead of correcting them, he just added more false claims. He even inflated his so-called “savings” total from $55 billion to $65 billion, when in reality, the actual increase is only from $2 billion to $2.3 billion.

This is what it’s like to watch democracy die. What an appalling display yesterday as Zelenskyy was surrounded by that pack of wolves in the Oval Office.

The quest for a Facebook alternative thus far: Friendster, Orkut = gone. MySpace = all music and looks like it’s not been updated. Minds = I see MAGA posts (this is heartbreaking) Vero = no text option? Just pictures and links!? Feel free to add to this list. Let’s find a new non-Meta home! #social

Apart from showing how evil he is yesterday, Trump showed how he’s actually a bad—moronic—dealmaker. I mean, you’ve got some guy coming in to give you his country’s minerals. Wouldn’t you want to get him to sign first before berating him on global television?

big day for dictators with territorial ambitions

In other news, sweet potatoes in the slow cooker = heavenly bliss.

I’m with #Ukraine. I’ve never forgiven what the Russians did to my great-grandmother every holiday when Hitler was in power. Rape. She would be gang raped infront of her children. Every holiday. That’s why I’m not a holiday chick.

Devil in the Family on Hulu was very eye-opening. Those poor children. I believe there should be stronger laws on using children for content. Not wanting to film content does not equal possession by the devil.

We are shutting down our online store at midnight Eastern in solidarity with the 2/28 Economic Blackout. We’ll be back on 3/1. Also, sorry about the long shipping timeframes and the lack of shirts—we’re working hard to catch up! We use small U.S. suppliers for our products.

Today I decided that in addition to economic blackout, it’s time to stand up to the tech oligarchs. I have changed from Google to DuckDuckGo. I deleted Facebook Messenger and installed Telegram. I also placed app timers for X and FB so I spend less time making them money daily. #resist

There were no casualties, according to French media.
