The bad news is my microwave died and I can't afford to replace it right now. The good news is that I made my first jello poke cake and I'm very excited about how that's going to turn out. Lemons/lemonade

The contribution limit for an individual is $3,500. Elon Musk, a government contractor, is trying to purchase Congress. Billionaires are smothering our elections for their personal gain. Get big money out of politics.

Get your asses out and vote. Our voices matter damnit!

Oh everything's so convenient now with the internet. To make a dr appt you have to create a patient portal. Pay a bill, download an app. Cancel a service - oops no you can't do that online you have to call us. So when I want to talk to a human I can't and when I don't I must. 🤬

This man thinks he can buy the American people with a measly $5k? He and his billionaire bros are trying to drag us all to hell. If he's asking us to throw away this country's future, at the very least he needs to make us all millionaires on the way out.

Dear Matthew McConaughey, STFU Thank you for listening to my Ted Talk.

The first part of that is actually capitalism and the second part has nothing to do with economics but he knows that.

I made butter chicken for the first time and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Next time I'll up the heat level a bit.

Dear algorithm, I don't need to see any celebrity updates unless it's related to them actively defending our democracy and publicly making statements against what the current administration is working to destroy.

Christmas is canceled this year because most of us can't afford shit. There's your war on Christmas.

I hate the folding doors in this house. Every damn closet has them. Tonight the one in the hallway gave me a final eff you after years of struggle. The door has fallen off the destroyed track and I just don't have the will left to fight with the house demons so open air closet it is. FML

If history tells us anything it's that "not taking a side" as fellow human beings are being targeted for extinction is most definitely considered taking a side.

2024: "Vote for me and you'll never have to vote again." "I don't even need your votes. I have plenty of votes." 2026: "Sell your vote for $5k so can splurge on food and gas for a couple of months."

Happy Labor Day..as the midterms approach, may the odds be ever in our favor.

You know what's a better economic indicator than the NASDAQ? All the cars parked in the driveways of my neighborhood during a holiday weekend.

If some entrepreneur is out there looking for the next great business idea, here's a freebie for you. A store that only sells "dumb" appliances because pretty much no one wants a dishwasher or fridge acting as a peeping tom in their own homes. Extra freebie: same goes with automobiles.

The powers that be want to reverse the progress of the people over the last couple centuries while simultaneously propelling us into a future where humans are no longer necessary. It's all very dystopian but very on brand for humans.

It's going to be a long 6 days till the next episode of Silo. 👀

Who needs Ozempic when our food is literally trying to kill us.

The aging brain is a strange thing. I forget why I walked into a room multiple times a day but I can sing every single word of the Growing Pains' theme song on cue.

With all the terrible things happening under this administration, I keep thinking about people like Marco Rubio whose only interest is power and how that is more important to him than destroying absolutely everything. Long term pain for short term gain seems like an awful legacy to leave behind.

Why is this administration so G-D evil? Seriously!!

All those establishment Dems ringing the alarm bells that DSA candidates can't win against Rep candidates, you know that saying about the definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result? The people are speaking up with their votes and y'all better listen.

I'm no political expert but it seems like a campaign's success can no longer be solely determined by dollars raised.

Angie Nixon, let's gooooo!!!!

How I did my research for the Florida primary: Any candidate endorsed by the DSA got my vote. I'm done playing around with establishment Dems.

Happy Florida Primary Day!

A friend suggested I watch The Five-Star Weekend, and while it's not exactly my cup of tea, I will watch the sh*t out of anything with Timothy Olyphant in the cast. So thank you friend! 🥰

My adolescent self would have never guessed that adulthood would be so unaffordable.

Once he's gone I know we can just tear down all of his vanity projects, but it enrages me that we'll have to waste time and resources to do that.

They say AI is here to improve our lives so I asked it to tell me how to win the lottery and it told me it wasn't able to do that. Color me unimpressed.

Are we really going to let them destroy all the originals so that they can sell us back cheap imitations?

I survived a global pandemic. I'm grateful for the scientists and modern medicine that made that possible. Dr. Fauci and others that took that threat seriously are heroes and should be remembered as such.

Seeing people from all generations collectively realizing that the current system is only serving a small segment of the population is kinda cathartic tbh.

Me in the produce section of the grocery store after finally hitting my limit of GAF.

For companies offering 5 cents off their products in coupon apps, that's not a purchase motivator in any economy lol.

I'm from Michigan and it seems like they are going through a lot right now between the dirty lettuce and the smoke from Canada's wildfires. My fellow Michiganders, are y'all ok??

A large segment of the population doesn't spend much if any time thinking about an election after they cast their vote much less 6 whole years later.

I didn't watch even one minute of it, but this is the gist I'm getting from those poor souls who did. He can take his narcissistic injury and bugger off. The rest of us have real world issues to tend to.

It's clear that a majority of our elected representatives lack the resolve to actually represent the people because they have no skin in that game. Unless more "boots on the ground" candidates run for office, the interests of the capitalist elite will take precedence over society as a whole.

The gig economy is pretty challenging when no one has any money to spare.

Hey Democratic elected officials, did you know you can just not say anything? Silence is golden, especially if you're currently running for something. I'm not in PR but I feel like this is common sense. At this point it kinda feels like y'all just enjoy losing.

4 out of 9 of the nation's highest legal authorities are cool with lighting the US Constitution on fire. Happy 250th! 👎

Netflix giveth and Netflix taketh away.
