There are many reasons why someone would prefer using audio books.
Every one of those reasons are valid.
Never let anyone make you feel guilty or less valid for using an accommodation to consume the written word, not even yourself.

I’m going to tell my grandkids Jeff Goldblum was looking at Randy Fine

I knew I saw this somewhere before. Funny that it’s almost exactly what’s actually happening now.

Please Grammer, don't hurt 'em!

It's sad that MAGA hates this.

The aurora last night in Beaver, Alaska was just incredible. This is a real-time video (not sped up) of the crazy motion I saw. Also, look how BRIGHT it is, wow!

Right? Why the sudden friendly fire?

The US is traumatizing thousands of kids in detention camps. But we are also traumatizing *millions* of kids who are in hiding or fear their parents being snatched.

Like how we have tens of thousands of kids who have survived school shootings, and a whole generation shaped by active shooter drills.

I would think common sense would tell us moving the cyclists into traffic lanes will impede the flow much more than having dedicated bike lanes in place.
As a driver, I prefer them. I am so concerned when I have to drive around a bicyclist. I am always just so worried I could seriously hurt them.

Last time I went from Portland to Seattle I went via Amtrak.
Absolutely would do it again. We got a hotel a few blocks from the station, walked and/or took free shuttles to the main attraction areas. It was so much more enjoyable than driving and loads of absolutely gorgeous scenery along the way.❤️

Most states have both. 💰💰

I feel that articles reporting on Trump's racist post should not feature the racist image as the link preview. People who want to see the photo should have to intentionally seek it out.
Forcing the image into the timelines of those who have been the target of similar racism could be very triggering.

Fun fact: Trump is mentioned in the Epstein files more than Jesus is mentioned in the bible.

And that’s just the unredacted version.

The mainstream media needs a "political showdown" story angle to ICE or they won't cover it.

What is the red team doing and how is the blue team responding? What are the implications on the midterms or Newsom's or Pritzker's 2028 run?

Los Angeles, Chicago, Minneapolis, ICE raids never slowed down.

May today bring you lasting health and freedom from pain.
I hope your recovery is swift.

Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”

Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

Why are the men’s names redacted and the victims names exposed?

A USGS volcanologist kneels in deep snow at Harry’s Ridge, peering through a green surveying instrument mounted on a metal stand. Beside him, a large snowman faces the same direction, wearing dark sunglasses and an orange nose, with a handheld radio propped against its side and a Budweiser can in its left “hand.” Low, gray clouds hang over the white ridge and distant mountains.

Accompanying USGS volcanologist Don Swanson on Harry's Ridge today is Olaf, a postdoctoral scientist with the Survey.

As Swanson looks through a theodolite toward Mount St. Helens, Olaf also watches the mountain—while nursing a can of Budweiser.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Democracy dies in oligarchy.

If you support this administration using Rapid Dominance on US soil under the guise of "deporting dangerous criminals," then you may as well burn down your kitchen every time you think the milk might be expired in the fridge without even looking at the date on the bottle first.
Makes as much sense.

YouTube video by PBS NewsHour WATCH: Minneapolis resident and U.S. citizen Aliya Rahman describes being detained by ICE

The GOP are big fans of using Rapid Dominance (aka: "Shock & Awe") as a military strategy to cause peace.

In truth, it is just a strategy for control.

The Trump administration is clearly using this strategy to gain full control over those who live in blue states.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

ICE MUST GO‼️

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
