I am exhausted every morning. I want to plug into a charger and wake up at 100% like my phone.

Sadists. Thugs. Liars.

The entire regime is one big middle finger to everything that’s good and decent

If only diseases didn’t cross state lines. Every time some family from Arizona or Vermont or New Jersey goes to Disney and gets exposed to Florida they risk bringing it back home with them.

Wedging and ice pack in the back of your bra helps a little. A tiny bit, barely, sometimes.

Three panel cartoon titled At Random by Ryan Mason. First panel shows a man and a woman at a bar with the man pointing at the woman and saying "You know what would look good on you?" In the second panel, the man points his thumb back at himself and says "Me." In the third panel, the woman is standing in front of a mirror wearing a dress clearly pierced together from the man's skin, with the skin of one hand and one foot visible in the dress and the skin of the man's head and face draped next to a sewing machine in the background. She is saying to herself, clearly in response to the man's previous assertion, "I don't see it."

Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

Remember this before you order your next pumpkin spice latte.

We are very far over the cliff here folks

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

😩 I don’t like it, the baby has fallen into the uncanny valley.

I tried to be Moisturized. Happy. In My Lane. Focused. Flourishing.
But I am in fact Parched. Bothered. All Over the Map. Bloodstained. Ravening.

F, M and J visas are all different types of student visa.

😧 not, not to the person. To the paper that comes with the medal that says “sorry about the boo boo here is a shiny medal”

THIS IS FUCKED UP: Sae Joon Park took bullets for America in Iraq.

The thanks he got? A one-way ticket out of the country he nearly died for.
He’s being deported to South Korea—after surviving spinal injuries, PTSD, and addiction.

He fought for America. Now America throws him out like trash.

I agree. Purple Hearts should come with citizenship stapled to the back.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida.

If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

Bits and pieces of that Bo Burnham song keep floating thru my mind.
“Total disassociation, fully out your mind
Googling "derealization", hating what you find
That unapparent summer air in early fall
The quiet comprehending of the ending of it all”

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously

But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state

Keep that same energy of support for her

There's nothing holy about writing discrimination into the law.

We can keep discussing these societal issues year after year, but nothing is likely to change. Instead, it’s up to you to take proactive steps to protect yourself and your family and live with the reassurance that you can protect your life if the threat arises—plain and simple.

We need a massive “get out the vote” campaign starting now…

Alabama worker says ICE dragged him from job despite being US citizen: ‘Color of our skin has become a crime’ He said when he tried to record the incident, the agents knocked his phone out of his hand.

“A construction worker in south Alabama says he was forcibly detained Wednesday by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents who claimed his proof of U.S. citizenship was fake.” www.al.com/news/mobile/...

The one person a woman is married to is more likely to kill her than all the illegal immigrants in the country combined and yet none of our laws or policies seem to recognize that fact

I liked the bits about trains and smelting ore.

So that's what Big Balls did with the terabytes of data he stole from the National Labor Relations Board a few weeks ago.

Reposting to remind folks that I'm still looking for work. A lot is going on in the news right now, including potential tariffs on international films, the Sean Combs sex trafficking trial, and a plan to defund NPR and PBS. Please reach out if you need a reliable journalist.

In only a few months, we've rolled back the clock on measles eradication by more than three decades. The last time we hit this benchmark in 1990, 9 children died. It took ten more years and intensive vaccination efforts after that to declare it eliminated. That was 25 years ago.

It’s for sure homophobic a great actor can take you with them in any role.
