"Slaves donate their slave wages from forced labor to feed young children because the government is letting them starve" isn't the feel-good story this news outlet thinks it is.

Not prosecuting Nixon for Watergate led to Reagan and Iran-Contra. Not prosecuting Reagan for Iran-Contra led to GW Bush and the Iraq War lies. Not prosecuting GW Bush's Iraq War lies led to Trump and the Jan 6th Insurrection. Not prosecuting Trump for The Insurrection led to where the US is now.

Booked the uhaul. Talking to my ISP about moving. Planned my new bedroom layout. Parents coming to town to visit and help. Soon I'll be living with my partner. My life has changed so much. I'm happier. I'm healthier. I'm more authentically me than I've ever been. Out, poly, queer, and proud. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️💜

Let's be clear. Capitalism not only doesn't create jobs, it minimizes them. A capitalist identifies an under-served demand, they deliver that demand for the lowest possible cost and the highest possible price. For profit. That is, they create the fewest most overworked jobs possible.

I'm just over hearing things like "gov't should run like a business". Government is the systemic representation of the people's will. Does that sound like how you want your government ran? Deliver the least value possible for the cheapest cost possible at the highest price? Me either.

Hell yes, totally the right way to spend the day. Thinking I'll mix in some Changeline, Ashnikko, plus I still gotta check Ayesha Erotica's latest album.

Here’s the thing. I don’t care about your religious beliefs or your moral and ethical codes until it interferes in the lives, and the rights of others. Just because you claim to take guidance from a 2000 year old book of fiction, you do not get to invalidate the existence of the LGBTQIA+ community.

🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific. They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him. Stop the lies.

This new war is not only illegal, reckless and deeply corrupt, it is the latest in a series of increasingly desperate distractions from the EPSTEIN Files. #ImpeachAndConvict47NOW

RFK: “Where did all this autism come from? It never existed when I was a kid!” “A Christmas Story”, a 1983 movie based on a 1971 memoir about a childhood in the 1930s: “This is my brother Ralphie. He has a ton of sensory issues and behaviors we don’t understand. Every family has a child like him.”

Every Democrat running for office needs to promise investigations and full prosecutions from top to bottom, remove its funding bloat then break up the agency and distribute its core remaining useful functions across other agencies.

ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries. Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves. "Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks. "No, guess he should've complied," agent says. Yakima, Washington

Just wow. @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy came out swinging in this article. He's right though and that's the coolest part.

Savvy countries will discover there’s a way to mitigate the harm incurred by Trump’s tariffs—and it’ll boost their own economies while making goods cheaper too. www.wired.com/story/us-tra...

If Network NEWSCASTS, and their Late Night Shows, are almost 100% Accurate about a Pathological Liar and Convicted Felon who Incited an Insurrection, tried to Steal a Fair Election and is Covering up Sex Crimes against Children, shouldn't his Disgraceful Presidency be terminated? I say, YES!

The Wall Street Journal wants you to know that children are possessions, and possessions aren't allowed to walk away from their owners.

Welcome to the pissed-off parent pushback: After years of therapists and others encouraging adult children to cut ties with families they deem harmful or “toxic,” estranged parents are speaking out on.wsj.com/4s49U52

To be clear, this is not to forgive those who lust for conquest - the same greed drives the rich to let others starve for luxury and common people to kill for resources. But to me, this is the other half of the "First they came" poem. You can't hide from them by becoming them, they won't share.
