As someone whose plans for the future went from "I should be able to retire at 65" to "I don't know if my body will hold up that long" within the span of the last two years, I urge all of you to remember this.

Just Monday past thou hast sipped the frothy brew of Morning Joe.
Was it not bitter? My lord, the milk of human kindness has run dry.
E’en the Grey Lady doth cast a pallor on thine name.
Thy castle is not safe, no mind the arrows that thy pretty Hunter shoots.

Since the Inflation Reduction Act signed into law in Aug 22, there have been nearly $17 billion in planned U.S. solar manufacturing investments, 126 new or expanded facilities. These policies shifted reality and expectations fundamentally, helping changing the course of our nation and planet.

That is vastly dumber than I believed it could be. «“Why does anyone vote?” I ask myself. The answer cannot be that we believe that by doing so, we will influence the outcome of an election.» I checked but I already canceled my subscription. It’ll expire in May 2025. Good luck everybody

ok since u asked: did you know all of the transformers are canonically transgender, in particular Arcee. she says in the comics she was “forged male” but then wanted to have a girl body so she just reformatted herself. there are also enby transformers too, it’s a surprisingly queer series.

“You’re a lawyer! What does this mean, really?” Man, I don’t fucking know. In the last week an entire area of law I studied was more or less rendered entirely moot and now there’s one specific guy in the whole country who may be able to do anything he wants without recourse. This is kind of new.
