You lucky dog! I didn’t know your GGF was Canadian. Seems to mean that once you have it your kids could get it too?
Wait, what? How?
What a coo idea!
This is a great game (and not so dystopian for cyberpunk, which I think everyone could use right now). Check it out!
The numbers are staggering:
Rent is now unaffordable for a record *half* of U.S. renters.
Some 30 million jobs pay less than $15 an hour. The average wage needed to afford a one-bedroom apartment has climbed to $28.17 — nearly four times the federal minimum wage, which hasn't gone up in 16 years.
This is amazing! I feel @temporaryhero.bsky.social probably says this.
unembarrassed enthusiasm about learning new things is genuinely the best way to live
So just to be clear: at the same time that we are running a roughly $1.8trillion deficit, the government is going to have to pay back something like $200bn in tariffs.
And this was the moment that they figured it was a great time to burn a billion dollars *a day* starting an optional war. 🤦♂️
Do you have (or know of) any articles, blogs, books, etc that discuss the art of questioning? Would love to learn more!
Oh @temporaryhero.bsky.social
This is fire feminist critique/analysis of AI that doesn’t quite go in the direction you’d think it might.
Prince Andrew arrested over Epstein ties on the same day South Korea’s ex-president was jailed for life for attempting a coup.
Lord, I have seen what you’ve done for others 🙏🙏

Now I want this film.
I’m confused! Two separate games at the same time? Who thought that would be a good idea?
MAJOR: Twin Cities Tenants joins five labor unions, together repping 25,900 members, to launch a rent strike drive, vowing to withhold rent March 1 if @governorwalz.mn.gov fails to deliver an eviction moratorium and rent relief. If launched, this would be the largest US rent strike in 100+ years.
In fascist America, bank robs you.
In fascist America, the pharmaceutical industry regulates the government.
In fascist America, television watches you.
In fascist America, you sound like LLM.
Hopefully that cat will get through those AI filters now!
I show this in almost every single class I teach to demonstrate the simple values behind the dignity of all people and how at odds our culture's norms are to the idea. I have cried over how hard it is to believe myself when I repeat after Rev. Jackson, "even if I make a mistake, I am somebody." RIP.
If you only read one thing today, let it be this. ICE is not in retreat. What we saw in Minnesota is going to spread everywhere. Get ready, friends. Take a training. Connect with your neighbors. Find out which groups are already doing prep work and volunteer. Lock arms and love on your community.
Love your Three Musketeers pieces!
DHS is shutting down because it refuses to obey the law. They are tear-gassing schools, killing American citizens, and disappearing legal immigrants. Democrats shouldn’t fund an out of control ICE.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.
That’s what you’re supposed to do to fascists.
Imma try and keep this short, but this is what i think is importantly historically. The 1960s civil rights laws and decisions were not technically "new legislation." it was a restoration of what already was.
For example

It occurs to me that most of those healthcare jobs are at some level dependent on government spending through Medicaid, Medicare, etc. Yet another reason why cutting that or not talking about universal care is a bad idea.
Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.
He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.
Read the room, @schumer.senate.gov . Have some courage or step aside for someone who will.
Abolish ICE.
There’s no reforming it.
There’s no compromise.
There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.
Worth reading!
