Why does Thomas Jefferson on Netflix look like Mrs. Doubtfire? Is it just me? “Helloooooo, dear Continental Congress….”

When the car battery dies, but it’s Friday night pizza night. The garlic knots are in the “pet carrier” below the seat. I may have found my side hustle. 😅 Meep Meep! 🛵 🍕 (I mean, there’s already a drawing of a #Vespa on the pizza boxes.)

This. is. bonkers.

I can’t wait for the photo on the left to be in one of those “How it started/How it’s going” memes. 🦠 ☠️ 🪦

I'm sure Americans will give zero fucks what language the truckers are speaking when the goods they want to buy are no longer on the shelves at Walmart or Target. Good luck, you fascist fucks.

The 19 richest U.S. households saw a $1 trillion wealth increase in 2024, a rise that exceeds the size of Switzerland’s economy. These 19 households now control $2.6 trillion in wealth — almost as much wealth as the bottom 50% of American households. If this isn't an oligarchy, what is?

This (false) equation of billions with brilliance isn't as surprising as you might think. In the US, dominant institutions--in media, religion, education, etc--spoon-feed us the myth of meritocracy from the time we're old enough to understand The Little Engine That Could. 🧵1/

Looks like there were about 44k deaths last year from COVID in the US, putting it on par with guns and cars, so officially the level that "we" stop caring about it.

"The COVID-19 pandemic is over, and HHS will no longer waste billions of taxpayer dollars responding to a non-existent pandemic that Americans moved on from years ago" Imagine being a Long Covid sufferer, or someone who has lost a loved one to Covid this week, and hearing that.

Is it just me or was the whole point to leak our National Security plans? These people aren’t even pretending to work for America’s best interests. #HegsethIncident

Trump on military plans shared by Pete Hegseth in a Signal group included a reporter: "There was no classified information as I understand it."
