Musk should have his assets seized for election interference, be stripped of his citizenship and deported to South Africa, penniless.

still can't get over what we learned today that the actual story is elon musk just copied enough of wikipedia word-for-word for grokipedia to be useful but rewrote all articles related to him to be more favorable, leaving out facts he doesn't want people to see or talk about

public health is a fucking miracle and RFK jr is the ghoul gnawing at its corners trying to convince everybody that being dead and disgusting is better than not being dead and disgusting and I can't figure out why the fuck people are falling for the idea of being dead and disgusting

I’ve been regularly volunteering at a food bank for about a year and please, if you want to help, consider donating cash.

For $3, they can provide 15 meals and what they can do with the money you might spend on a few cans can be converted to vastly more in fresh fruit, vegetables, dairy, or meat.

I know we can’t fix this looming SNAP loss ourselves, but I am heartened by the sheer number of people donating what they can to help their neighbors and encouraging others to do the same. So many more people want to help than want to hurt.

Bold to respond to one of the most concerning-on-the-technical-details cloud provider outages in years, an outage in which terrible morale and sky-high attrition are credibly implicated, with "let's do more layoffs"

With all the milestones, how extraordinary this is can get lost!

Last Sunday on the BBC I announced we overtook the Tories at 124k members.

That's +26,000 members in the last week.

Hope is feeling normal again....

I wrote about how RFK Jr is making health worse for millions of Americans. He's slashed research and healthcare, and replaced them with "hAvE yOu TrIeD YoGa?"

Link & free link in thread. There are impeachment/removal proposals in both the House and Senate. Tell your electeds to boot this guy out!

the democratic party’s basic problem is it has almost no control over how its message reaches the ears of voters, especially outside of presidential election years. but rather than devote serious time, attention and cash to that problem its consultants and pundits want to fight factional battles

one of my core memories is watching my mom sob and scream over the phone because she kept getting denied food stamps despite having a bus driver's income and 5 kids to take care of.

So, when people claim that programs like snap are too easy to abuse it rings really hollow.

if you see this post, your actions are:
- if you have a spare buck, give it to Wikipedia, then repost this
- if you don't have a spare buck, just repost

Apparently ICE is trying to rebrand as “HSI” (Homeland Security Investigations), so if you see HSI on a police officer’s uniform, they’re with ICE.

What in the actual fuck? Googles AI basically hallucinated that I somehow accused my podcast host & close friend of toxic behavior & harassment - killing her channel. Keep in my, Vera and I host a podcast together regularly and are good friends and her channel is amazing. This is absolutely fucked.

OpenAI Says Hundreds of Thousands of ChatGPT Users May Show Signs of Manic or Psychotic Crisis Every Week OpenAI Says Hundreds of Thousands of ChatGPT Users May Show Signs of Manic or Psychotic Crisis Every Week

by OpenAI’s own estimates, hundreds of thousands of ChatGPT users are showing signs of manic or psychotic crisis every week

There's nothing that could make me hate generative AI more.

Never mind.

first book banners told us it was just about what was in schools
then they came for books in the public libraries
then they started getting book stores for carrying certain stock
now I'm hearing about little free libraries being shut down

also a reminder that Utah still has a book destruction law.

Expiring ACA Premium Tax Credits Could Lead to Nearly 340,000 Jobs Lost Across the U.S. in 2026 Unless Congress acts quickly to extend the enhanced ACA marketplace premium tax credits, nearly 5 million people could lose health insurance coverage in 2026.

"Approximately 339,100 jobs are projected to be lost in 2026, as loss of income forces health care providers & other businesses to reduce their workforces. Slightly less than half of these jobs (154,000) will be health care–related, while the rest (185,000) will be in other sectors of the economy."

can't believe toronto making the world series for the first time since I was fucking BORN is making me suddenly give a shit about baseball ⚾️

i think i'm actually proud to have the biggest circle on this chart. show this to my grand children.

A reminder that losing SNAP will be particularly devastating to those whose disabilities require them to have special diets.

The disability tax is real.

Everything costs more when you’re sick, and special diets are no exception.

Boost & donate to mutual aid. People need help.

Congress basically doesn’t exist at this point

A lot of folks may think that just yelling at ICE agents is ineffective, but consider the cumulative psychological toll of being yelled at EVERY DAY when trying to do shit. Even the biggest asshole in the world who doesn't give a shit about other people will feel the pressure.

If people are hungry, you feed them.

If they are homeless, you house them.

If they’re sick, you give them medical care.

If they’re cold, you give them clothes.

It isn’t hard.

Far too many people are more than happy to sit in judgement of others rather than helping.

the palpable hatred for ICE in every corner of the city is visible with very rudimentary graffiti and tags on every other block in chicago - it’s quite a thing of beauty to be this unified.

“What I need you to know is we are organized.

What I need you to know is that you need to get organized.

What I need you to know is they are coming.

What I need you to know is you can stop them.”
