Sadly, Miller is so far over the boundary of rational thinking, that it would be close to impossible for his family not to appreciate his "gifts of stupidity".

Whether it's Republicans flagrantly abusing Articles One and Two of the Constitution or Democrats being bad at messaging, both parties are pushing America to the brink.

Whoa! The shutdown’s ripple effect starting to hit.

Burbank Airport in LA County has no air traffic controllers on duty due to sick calls, last-minute day-off requests, and staffing shortages.

If you’re flying anywhere in the country, check for delays.

For the love of all that is holy, Chuck Schumer, retire.

Go spend time with your family. Let people who understand what’s going on, who have even a modicum of fight in them, do what needs to be done.

Every time you speak you make it clearer that you cannot do this.

It’s actually good and right to find joy even as things fall apart. Now more than ever it is good to find joy and happiness where you can. It’s ok and good not to consume the horrors all of the time.

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me πŸ‘ŒWe’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Damn. This is amazing. Β£325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

CONFESSION:
I’ve developed a crush on Ms. Greta Thunberg, so I’m donating to WCK’s Palestine operation in her name. You should too. Or give to another reputable org. Or start another flotilla. Do what you can!
