People trapped in addictions to money and consumption don't know that there are other ways to find happiness. How can we break out of this cycle?

Oregon AG Rayfield: The first thing that might’ve told you the federal government wasn’t doing so hot was when they started off some of their arguments by talking about Truth Social as their source of facts.

Actually got a comment from the judge: “Is this really how you’re going to move forward?”

Valley Car Wash owner Rafie Shouhed, 79, who was brutally knocked to the ground by #ICEmorons at his own business in Van Nuys, LA, filed a $50 million damages claim against #ICE.

These women coming to the realization how much their men hate them.

The reason the game #Monopoly causes so many fights and rage quits is because it was designed to provoke that response.

The game where the end goal is to bankrupt your friends and ruin their lives was developed as a protest to unchecked greed.

This is Jade. She just met the biggest dogs she's ever seen. But quickly learned they have the biggest hearts too. 13/10 for all (TT: catimtins.pscal)

The last time the U.S. hosted the World Cup, a ticket to the final was <$200 — in today's dollars.

Next year, we're looking at *face value* tickets of $6,000.

I joined Lina Khan on @pablotorrefindsout.bsky.social last week to talk about FIFA's absurd and greedy ticketing plans.

Operation Trojan Horse Quote Matt Finn @MattFinnFNC · 29m Breaking: DHS arrives in Penske trucks at a Home Depot in McArthur Park area of LA for early morning immigration enforcement. The area was filled with migrants who scattered. DHS says MS 13 has a chokehold on this area, which is one reason they’re carrying out the highly. Underneath is a screenshot of an 8 second video showing agents lifting the door of a rental truck from the inside as they get ready to jump and out and grab people.

This morning, Border Patrol agents hiding in Penske rental trucks raided a Home Depot in Los Angeles to grab day laborers standing around, which the Border Patrol's current CA lead Gregory Bovino called "Operation Trojan Horse."

Raises very serious questions about violation of the court order.

Gaza will be remembered as the first Genocide that was live streamed and everybody knew about.

And they didn't even stop sending the bombs to carry it out.

Daniel Lawson @DanielLaw1998: Disabled parking should only be valid during business hours 9 to 5, Monday to Friday. I cannot see any reason why people with genuine disabilities would be out beyond these times. Jennifer Lee Rosman @JenLRossman: We’re disabled, Daniel, we’re not werewolves

7 years later and I still whisper, “We’re disabled, Daniel, not werewolves” to myself like a sacred mantra whenever I see a non-disabled person discover ableism like it’s the latest hipster indie band.

Iran has always been underestimated. If they weren’t building nukes before they are now after this. Probably more in the region will as well. This turned into an anti nonproliferation operation.

Bet it works as well as his spaceships.

So writing history based on racist, sexist, xenophobic con man vibes. Got it.

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

Boxes full of N95 3M Aura 1870+ masks

I just received my N95 mask order from @DonateMask (Twitter/X)!! I bought way more than I needed so I could redistribute it to the community.

I'm thinking about adding them to my store for free and having people cover the shipping. There'd be a limit per order. Would people be interested?

Great idea.

That Feeling of Terror Should we flee or should we stay and fight?

My latest substack. Two main points:
1. The media needs to stop mincing words. The way journalists aren't straight up calling this fascism reminds me of the decades-long media failure on climate.
2. Stay and fight, hard. We can still stop dictatorship open.substack.com/pub/climateh...

My new substack is #5 "rising" in Climate and Environment! I love being able to write articles there without any editorial gatekeeping

Sitting skeptical in Las Vegas desert weather where sooner or later glues yield to the extreme heat.😬

Everything is falling apart in the UK because it has all been privatised and they won't use the profits for building new stuff or even maintaining old stuff.

No, they will just steal it all and then you can fix it as if it is nationalised.

Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

Extensive Polls Find Americans Support Taxing the Wealthy Creating a more just economic system isn’t just the right thing to do — it’s the popular one too.

Looking at over 55 national and state polls across six categories of tax reforms, a billionaire income tax garners the most support across party identification (67% average) and a wealth tax had similarly high levels of support: 78% of Democrats, 62% of Independents, and 51% of Republicans.

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!”

@USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?”
