it is a strength.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited,

it is unlimited.

This is such a great callout…

Does your Christian church have a plan to help the community when SNAP benefits don’t go out in November?

If not, you’re at the wrong church.

Someone on Twitter replies to me: "meh. buy american or stfu." Two hours later, in a separate thread, the write: "$30 for a single button-up is ridiculous unless it is decent quality silk."

This two-parter below is exactly why it's hard to make clothes in the United States.

Let's look at how much it costs to produce a button-up shirt in the US. 🧵

To stand in solidarity with our government workers, I requested my Congressional salary be withheld for the duration of this shutdown. I plan on donating my pay to nonprofits within the 6th District that are addressing food insecurity for families impacted by cuts to SNAP and other federal programs.

AOC "I think 'Abolish ICE' is a call to action on several levels. One is the literal interpretation of abolishing ICE, which I support...I don't believe that an agency that systematically & repeatedly violates human rights, I don't think that agency can be reformed. I think it has to be abolished."

Gov is shutdown. Let’s see who picks it up this time 🤣

Democrats are fighting to protect healthcare and stop a shutdown. Where are the Republicans?

Tomorrow at 4pm I’ll host a livestream with my colleagues to discuss a government shutdown.

We can’t allow Republicans to throw 15 million off health care & raise premiums by 75%.

$60/hrx40 hrs regular time + $90/hr × 44 hours OT = $6360

It might be the only right thing, but their math is correct on this one.

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening

historians: that thing is definitely happening

star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it

news outlets: these protesters are out of control

Laura Loomer tweets: WOKE MARXIST POPE

my vet, who's hard of hearing: can you repeat your cat's name

I think that's Ft. Smith, actually. So, more conservative than up here in NWA or in central AR.

US FDA suspends milk quality tests amid workforce cuts The Food and Drug Administration is suspending a quality control program for testing of fluid milk and other dairy products due to reduced capacity in its food safety and nutrition division, according to an internal email seen by Reuters.

I was hoping for "Do You Hear the People Sing " but turns out we gotta live through "Master of the House" first.

I would like to watch him get a talking to by Mandy Patinkin, though.

Also, the lives of real, already existing people matter. Whether they will grow up to pay taxes, have a job, use the bathroom independently, go on a date, write a poem, or not. They are a human, their life has value.

If your answer to "bring this person back to the US" is "but that requires foreign diplomacy," then we probably shouldn't send anyone there.

Lol, maybe he'll get it if an AI written by 12-year-olds determines that Tesla is full of waste, fraud, and abuse.

Demonstrating their First Amendment rights is doing good for their community. They are building community. There is more to life than creating more wealth for billionaires.

Billionaires spend their money to avoid taxes. End Citizens United, so they can't spend it purchasing politicians, raise the rates, tax unrealized capital gains so they can't leverage debt. We'll see endowments return and investments made - all begrudgingly, just like back then.

Carnegie was never a good person, and he didn't do these things out of the goodness of his heart. Putting your name on things is more valuable than spending it on taxes. This is why we need to raise the income tax rate on corporations and the wealthy, as well as tax their unrealized capital gains.

So one of the things that I think is lost on AI proponents is what I call the card catalog effect, a thing I shouldn’t call it because a lot of people probably have no experience with a card catalog.

REPOST if you stand with AOC!

It’s weird how we’ve memory holed the fact that Obama entered his first term with a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate and a majority in the House and McConnell’s response was “We’re going to make Obama a one-term president,” not “there’s little we can do”

No! They should go to the LIBRARY! Or Kahn Academy, MIT Opencoursewear, Stanford and Harvard both offer free online courses as well.

Or or or... there are so many resources for free education! They could use AI to help them find a free course, podcast, or book that might help.
