"trump raised prices. republicans stood by. the supreme court -- the conservative supreme court -- said no. so trump raised prices again. and republicans stood by. dont support republicans who will raise your prices." is an easy and accurate and true message dems can repeat asap

Where’s my $1700???

We didn’t watch a lot of movies, but we DID watch the 1968 Zeffereli version of Romeo and Juliet in like 8th grade. Holy fuck was that awkward, esp. bc I don’t think our teacher knew there was going to be nude teenagers. She got pretty uncomfortable at that part.

His new 10% tariff is meant to make him feel better about himself. And of course, to bring in more money for himself. It’s a tantrum, as usual.

Farmers don't have personal agency? The majority of farmers voted for him three times. TRUMP made small farmers go out of business? Farmers gave him the power to do that. Maybe an accountability moment? Because while I know it's bad, I don't have a lot of sympathy.

We had to watch the original Romeo and Juliet, with the teenage nude scenes. That was... awkward. In my own classroom, esp. when I had special needs kids, I've shown movies related to the book we're reading: Willy Wonka, Narnia. I also show weird animations.

People complaining about Ice-T's statements clearly haven't listened to much Ice-T. This is not a man for subtle statements. He says what he means, and if you don't like it GFY. youtu.be/hlk7o5T56iw?...

SCOTUS strikes down Trump tariffs. This doesn't mean other countries will drop theirs. I expect many of them to continue hitting US with tariffs, because we've been total dicks.

the right really hates it when you call their planned concentration camps "concentration camps." their whole program works only if you make migrants into a scary mass of undocumented criminals coming for white families. its a lot harder when you humanize it. keep it up.

They locked up a Colombian child coming to go to Disney World with her family.

What the hell are we doing? And why in the world would anyone come here for the World Cup/Olympics? www.miaminewtimes.com/news/immigra...

They're trying to make observing/filming ICE illegal.

Then we must show up in greater numbers.

BE UNGOVERNABLE.

If HUSK is any indication, I would not buy property from Tony Frick's companies.

Then HUSK said it should be resolved by 2/24; if not I'll get a refund. HUSK took my money, and then wasted my TIME. I was on hold 45 mins w/ Blue Cross (HUSK partner), then HUSK, then HUSK again. I want my @realplanetfitness.bsky.social Black Card, not a refund @realplanetfitness.bsky.social

HUSK is the company that took $25+ bucks from me to sign me up for a @planetfitness.bsky.social Black Card which never arrived. When I called PF they didn't have a record for me. When I called HUSK they admitted they had "issues" with that particular PF... 1/several.

How a Planned Disney World Vacation Turned Into Four Months in Immigration Detention A 9-year-old shares her story of being held at the nation’s only operating detention center for immigrant families in Dilley, Texas.

She lives with her grandmother in Colombia and travels frequently to the U.S. to visit her mother. Her visa made them targets for ICE.

A trip to Disneyland ended with a 9-year-old, who had broken no laws, detained at Dilley, Texas.

Stetson Middle School was neglected for decades, district officials admit. Now, they’re trying to close the school. Parents and students say the school is being penalized for things the district has the power and money to fix. Twelve separate requests have been submitted to fix the roof.

The Philadelphia School District had already been a disgrace when I moved to the city in '99. I taught in Philly from 2022-2025 and I spent most of it feeling bad for the kids--because their district doesn't care about them or the teachers.

Foreign reporting indicated it wasn't just life in prison, but life with hard labor. It's not as emphasized in US reporting, but that man's gonna be breaking big rocks into little rocks all day.

I generally oppose capital punishment, but in this instance—not so much. You simply can’t have the equivalent of rabid dogs running free.

Surprise ICE warehouse could house up to 10,000 detainees for months at a time, new documents show After weeks of speculation about what the 400,000-square-foot warehouse in Surprise might be used for, the documents confirm it will be retrofitted as an ICE detention center, potentially housing 7,00...

I despise that game.

Enjoying Henge, but damn—starting to understand why Zeppelin fans get annoyed Greta van Fleet. These guys are SO inspired by Gong, I gotta wonder if they have Daevid Allen’s corpse in their basement.

Susan Collins is up for re-election in the coming Midterms, it’s time for her to go! So many times you hope she’ll do the right thing, instead, she disappoints!

Such a great song. My dad and stepmom--both will be 84 this year--love it.

It's hard to NOT see this as a coordinated attempt to smear someone the elites see as dangerous. I see you @nytimes.com @cbsnews.com @washingtonpost.com @thehill.com (no one reads @yahoonews.com, LOL). We see you for what you are.

Also, wipe off your chin. Looks like you got some in your hair too.
