This remains, and I say this advisedly, one of the best exchanges I have ever seen on social media

β€œI was just like you once,” she said, looking me in the eye. β€œI’m not any different now, I’m just without housing, without a house.”

Then wankers like Musk talk of the homeless as slackers etc, most of us through our working lives are only a few pay checks away from homelessness. Yet we give tax breaks to the rich, corporations , religions etc and ignore our most vulnerable

Recently took a peek at Twitter and the disinformation is getting substantially more dangerous. Someone could get killed.

The tactics of constantly repeating outright lies, targeting specific people, repurposing years-old footage and presenting them as new is getting to another level. It’s scary.

Just sitting here thinking about all those paycheck to paycheck folks who elected a billionaire who put other billionaires in charge of taking shit away from paycheck to paycheck folks, so they can make more billions.

This was the end for me. It should’ve been for every decent person in America.

Not saying it’ll happen, only that it’d really be something if the continued 2024 ballot-counting led to Trump finishing at 49.49% and Harris at 48.51%β€”arguably, a 49%-49% tie.

Trump would almost certainly spin out online.

Right now he leads by just 1.58% in one of the closest U.S. elections ever.

I don’t think it will all fit in there.

They elected a philandering rapist who in turn, has nominated an accused child sex trafficker to be his AG, a serial cheater who assaulted his babysitter to lead HHS and a guy who was investigated for sexual assault to be his SECDEF, and they’re STILL slut-shaming Kamala?

Fucking losers.

Next time you're applying for a job, tell your prospective employer you'd prefer they not do a background check.

Let's see how that goes.
