The richest man owns X. The second richest man owns The Washington Post. The third and fifth richest men control Google. The sixth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And the eighth richest man now owns both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

The problem is the supply filled up the horse market decades ago. Anyone signing the no kill pledge gets first choice on any horse. Any horse left over is sold to anybody who will take them off their hands before the horses starve to death.

The Trump administration has dramatically ramped up the sale of America’s federally protected wild horses, and a NYT investigation found that some are ending up in the slaughter pipeline. The BLM rounds up wild mustangs from public lands and places them up for adoption or sale.

Dry food is horrible. Not sure if canning heat causes some damage to the food, my pets didn't have problems 1975-2006.

I have added fiber powder to his wet food and I'm cutting back on some portions because he's gained a little weight while he's been going through this. I'm checking out how much compounding gabapentin costs. He doesn't like pills or the liquid. Thank you so much for commenting!

Try a raw fed diet.

Happy Caturday! Oliver has had a tough week. I took him to the emergency animal hospital last Saturday & he has lower lumbar degeneration, arthritis & an endplate fracture of a vertebrae. I do not know how this could have happened. He's doing better but he's still in pain. He has pain medicine.

Now to wait for a thousand year rain to get enough cooling water in Lake Mead.

The Trump administration has approved the first AI data center to be built on federal public land. The project will occupy roughly 88.5 acres of Bureau of Land Management land in southern Nevada and will set a major precedent for using America’s public lands for private AI infrastructure.

I became certain Mitch McConnell died at home when I found out no EMT got in the back of the Ambulance. They are there to continue treatment if started, monitor during transport, or prevent theft.

I did NOT vote for the rapist@sarahgies.bsky.social

Mitch McConnell is dead… Mitch McConnell has been dead for weeks, maybe a month! Replace him and fill his seat!

How about employer based retirement too? If you 'loose' / 'no longer grow' your retirement benefits because you pick a new employer, that is a very strong incentive not to leave.

Healthcare tied to employment is “forced labor” if you cannot freely leave, the labor is coerced coerced labor is forced labor

Limits air circulation. Box, sink, fish bowl, shower, tub, pet bed.

Hello everyone, happy Caturday! Oliver is crashed again in my shower. I have no idea why he loves it in there. This little guy means the world to me. He continues to help me with anxiety, insomnia and depression. He is such an empathetic kitty. I'm so incredibly fortunate that he found me. 🐾

So, did the turtle show up?

Once they were breaking down the barriers, shooting over their heads to drive them away. If they continue, into the crowd.

$100 to any reporter who asks him, "so you're saying Capitol Police should've shot dead everyone who breached the Capitol on January 6?"

Men choose jobs with lots of overtime, high danger, travel. Women choose jobs with regular hours to drop off / pick up kids, cook. Medical Doctors. Men choose surgeons, ER duty, hospital duty. Women will choose office jobs with depedable get home times.

EVERY channel should pay their own expenses. If they can't pay them, then they go bankrupt and we can clear our TV systems of low watched channels.

Zach Halper@zanath.bsky.social

We really shouldn't stop with Paramount and WB. Disney shouldn't be able to own ABC, ESPN, AND Hulu. All of these conglomerates need to be broken up.

Just as Former prince Andrew.

The 2007 Epstein non‑prosecution agreement (NPA) negotiated by the U.S. Attorney’s Office has zero force outside U.S. federal jurisdiction it does not block any other country from investigating or charging anyone named in the 2026 document release Like Tate, Epstein's justice may come from abroad

Administering Testosterone creates immediate muscle growth but inhibits natural production long term.

Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social

Pete Hegseth seems *obsessed* with the appearance of the men in our military. He monitors how much facial hair they have. He wants them to get bigger muscles by doing pull-ups. And now he wants them to take testosterone. Is he running a military or a stable of porn actors?

No submarine with nuclear reactor and missiles???

Strider@reluctantranger.bsky.social

If you think this "merger" between U.S. and Israeli militaries is not simply a hostile takeover by Tel Aviv and that Israel won't be dictating of our entire defense system, I have a Patriot battery and a few thousand F-15s to sell you.

Only way to start to reduce our debt.

The Liberal BoJack@thelibbojack.bsky.social

Other than legal accountability the best way to punish the Republican Party for the Trump Era would be to put tax rates back to the pre-Reagan era. Just send a giant fuck you to our corporate overlords and their political cult.

US$1.20 for 12 so US$5.3M in eggs and US$3.3M in cash, US$8.6M total, less than 1% of profit. Minimum fine should be 3X the profits. Seize that under "Civil Asset Forfeiture".

Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social

Three egg producers will pay $3.3 million and donate 53 million eggs to food banks and nonprofits to settle a price-fixing lawsuit with the DOJ. None of the producers have to admit any wrongdoing. Is this really justice? Or just the cost of doing business?

SCOTUS ruled DHS could cancel TPS without judicial review. That is 1.3M people, .3M from 4 countries are protected today but expire this year.

traffic stops, workplace operations, and in public spaces. The surge appears to be national rather than limited to a single region. If you or someone you know lives in one of these communities, stay informed, know your rights, and follow trusted local updates as enforcement activity continues.

Worldwide legislature size is usually about the cube root of the population, included the US until the 435 cap was created. Should be around 700. 700*700*700 = 343,000,000.

If Democrats can reform the Supreme Court they could also: - Increase the size of the Senate with DC statehood - Increase the size of the House - Update the Voting Rights Act - Pass a federal ban on partisan congressional gerrymandering

Ok. Apparently, a lot of residents in Rome when it became big didn't have that as they eventually carried Malaria into Italy making thiet population weak.

Quite a few Greeks have the sickle cell gene too! But it's a rather minor difference, all in all

Black people of African descent can have the sickle cell gene. One makes you more resistant to malaria, two gives you sickle cell disease. A few people from near Mumbai may have the Bombay blood type (non-ABO) meaning they can't receive any blood transfusions. Some white people can drink milk.

With all due respect, black and white is just the colour of one's skin. There is nothing more to it. Black, white, yellow, whatever, it's the same human beings, basically

He's got 10 days to veto, or congress to adjourn (they do pro-forma sessions to stay in session.
