How Big Food Corporations Take Advantage of SNAP Companies like Walmart are getting away with not only paying their workers low wages, but also owning the stores where the workers use SNAP benefits to buy their food.

Not dumb, unbelievably selfish.

Elon says AI will allow people to just receive a do-nothing wage when all the lower-paid jobs are automated. 🤣

That will never happen because people can't get their heads around giving SNAP right now!

Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

I'm proud of myself, fixed the dryer - belt snapped so it wasn't turning. Had to order a manual because none of the YouTube vids I found had a setup like mine but learned there was a little access panel on the back that went straight to the pulley. Saving $$ feeds my cheapness gene.

I once helped two women whose car broke down, and they were living at a dv shelter. They had to screen me before I could drive them home, because they couldn't risk their location being exposed. This violation of privacy by a morally bankrupt administration is sickening.

Opinion | My Bosses Were Afraid of Crossing Trump. So, I Quit. A veteran journalist opens up on the censorship that he says led to his resignation.

A must-read on the silent censorship taking place in the US press.

Well, this was inevitable. From @404media.co:

"How to disable the light is a common topic of conversation on Reddit, YouTube, and TikTok, with some users promising workarounds. 404 Media traced likely buyers of the modified Meta Ray-Bans to California, North Carolina, Texas, and overseas."

Yeah, then they complain about them for one reason or another. 😏 Unless they have been baptized in MAGA juice. Read trip review sites.

Not to mention setting foot in it in the first place.

Equal rights for others does not mean fewer rights for you. It's not a pie.

King Trump turns US Treasury into his personal piggy bank He thinks our money is his.

“For years, conservatives loudly complained that government spending was opaque, that their hard-earned dollars were being secretly misused, and that the government definitely did not need all the money it was taking from them.

That was always hyperbole … until now.”

women are about 78% of the healthcare workforce in america. i know people know this but it’s always worthwhile to state it outright. not only is it gendered to underpay healthcare workers but men who get “caught up” in it are undervalued for doing female-coded work. same with teachers.

Proverbs 14:5 An honest witness does not deceive,
but a dishonest witness pours forth lies.

v. 21 He who despises his neighbor sins,
but blessed is he who shows kindness to the poor.

v. 31 Whoever oppresses the poor taunts their Maker,
but whoever is kind to the needy honors Him.
