If Jeff Bezos was actually a feminist instead of letting Katy Perry buy a ticket to space he'd use his vast financial resources to oppose the president who is stripping abortion rights and bodily autonomy from women across the country

Jimmy Kimmel left X with 11.9M followers. Now imagine top influencers officially coordinating a date & time to all leave at once. One last post: why they’re leaving + β€œI’m on BlueSky, follow me there.” Their fans follow, X stock tanks. Who’s bold enough to make it happen?

β€œ"I just felt like the doctor turned his back on us. You know, 'I don't want to go to jail. I don't want to lose my license or get fined, so the best course is for me to protect myself,'" Ngumezi said.”

Screenshot:

Recovering from measles does not protect against cancer or any other disease besides measles. In fact, a measles infection has the ability to wipe out immune responses built up against other infectionsβ€” a phenomenon called immune amnesia, driven by the destruction of memory T- and B-cells. This leaves people who recover from the measles virus more vulnerable to all other germs.

This bears repeating.

The whole, β€˜good for your immune system’ rhetoric is nonsense generally, but it’s PARTICULARLY dangerous when it comes to measles πŸ‘‡

When oligarchs talk of β€œpersonal liberties and free markets” they mean their own liberties to become even richer and more powerful.

When oligarchs speak of β€œfreedom,” what they actually seek is freedom from accountability.

Know the truth.

Who owns Australia's sky and what can you actually write there? If someone has a problem with a billboard or broadcast, the avenues for recourse are clear – but skywriting is an entirely different matter

For 50 years, the median wage of hourly workers stagnated or declined while the stock market and CEO pay skyrocketed.

Is it any wonder so many feel abandoned by the system? People lose faith, and a demagogue fills the void.

This is why we must fix the system.

Trump's CFPB just dropped its lawsuits against:

-Capital One, for cheating depositors out of $2B+ in interest
-Rocket Homes, for providing kickbacks to agents and brokers
-Vanderbilt Mortgage, for trapping customers in risky loansΒ 

It's open season for corporate crooks.
