Please, Americans, get yourselves together. Hopelessness is the luxury of your privilege. Hopelessness is not something those who are in actual dire straights prioritize. This user is enduring genocide surrounded by intense bombing constantly, expressing continued hope for himself. Do the same.

Your life, choices and future generations’ choices are on the ballot November 5. This is no ordinary election. Dictatorships tend to last generations. Nothing about them is good for the general public. As Joe Pesci’s character said in the film CASINO: “don’t fuck up in here.”

In western countries, they lock up homeless people, for simply being fucked over by a system that sees housing as a commodity and not a human right, while cutthroat capitalists and spineless genocidal maniacs who do insider trading, sit in the halls of power as "political leaders." Absurd, isn't it?

Newsletter: Goldman Sachs has called BS on Generative AI, and I believe that it's time that everybody follows suit - generative AI is unreliable, unsustainable, requires an entire rebuild of America's power grid, and is most decidedly not the future.

We absolutely should NOT have class war until the self-styled revolutionary vanguard recognizes that racial conflict is not reducible or secondary to class conflict, AND they recognize that the experience of race shapes our experience of class. I’m not holding my breath on that though.

It’s Tuesday so you know what that means: call your electeds & tell them you support an investigation into the compromised SC judges and AOC’s motion to impeach them. It will take you five minutes max to make calls to both senators and your congressperson. If you can skeet, you can call or email.

Seven times between 1801 and 1869 Congress changed the size of the court, going from a low of five justices in 1801 to a high of ten in 1863. In most of those cases, as in 1801 and 1863, the size went up and down in order to fix an imbalance or overreach by the Supreme Court. My latest

Oregon being in the national news is always bad (see: Grants Pass criminalizing homelessness) with only one consistent exception, and that is when Wyden or Merkley throw the full force of their senatorial weight behind some long-overdue progressive cause to help finally move it forward

It's not every day that senators ask the attorney general to appoint a special counsel to criminally investigate a sitting Supreme Court justice.
What's more, the case against Clarence Thomas is quite credible. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Good reporting on an entirely predictable problem. Fun fact: Airbnb also covers up thousands of sexual assaults every year! Its internal safety team has "cool-down rooms" to take a break from the trauma of what they hear. It's a bad company, a bad industry, and people should just stay in hotels.

My Solomonic view is that NYT—perhaps the president’s primary persecutor recently—showed its whole ass with this swiss-cheese Parkinson’s specialist story. It’s blatantly copied from right-wing charlatans, unvetted. And a nimbler White House and campaign would be making it pay dearly for that.

The press using the white house visitor logs to write up (apparently false) attacks on Biden after Biden published visitor logs and Trump didn't: good illustration of the reward for upstanding and ethical behavior in the current media environment.
