This is wild.

And I just keep thinking… who is getting rich off this?

Grotesque.

It's bizarre to me how many people in the comments here seem to think that automation is going to translate into more freedom for the working class.

When has that ever panned out? How much leisure time do you have, after years of these "innovations"? We are Charlie Brown trying to kick the football

AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers — and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.

Oh, honey, here’s the thing:

Those of us who voted for the qualified lady WANT answer that question.

Like, we are over here trying not to be obnoxious about it.

i am asking yet again how it is legal for a company to send me a letter saying "sorry somebody stole all your personal information from us and now they have all of your personal information. sucks to be you! bye!" and then they receive no consequences and it happens again a week later

Lots of us end up footing the bill thru GoFundMes.

I'm not criticizing that. But it feels like another scam where billionaires keep getting tax breaks while the rest of us try to keep each other alive.

Madness.

I hope she gets the surgery she needs. And I hope we can fix the ACTUAL problem.

It’s Women’s History Month. Rather than post factoids I’m just gonna post a picture and a name and y’all can google why they’re important. Knowledge for you without a lot of free labor from me. Win win.

Today’s prompt is Maria Tallchief (because some of us like ballet)

Tonight, while hanging out w/ friends, a laser pointer started flashing around the room.

In MN! In 2026?!! We froze.

I went outside & it was a couple of my former students (& current neighbors) goofing around. 😑

It’s called “vetting,” asshole. You’re running for a high-profile U.S. Senate seat with zero political experience. Of COURSE they’re gonna dig into your past. That’s standard.

Once again: Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t have a clue how anything works.

So, the Iranian people, to determine their own future, are expected to capitulate to, "unconditional surrender?"

Sigh. WTF?

I, in principle, don’t believe in making fun of names.

It’s time to reveal the billionaire donors flooding American elections with potent dark money. I’m introducing the DISCLOSE Act with Senator Whitehouse and Rep. Pappas to make our money-drenched elections more transparent for all citizens.

I think about a mini version of this all the time with teaching.

Something that is relatively easy to do with one or two kids changes drastically with 36.

Sometimes folks give me a hard time for rules in a classroom, but you try it with 36. I'll watch.

As a late diagnosed ADHD'er I think about this a lot.

I had a disability that I just, mostly,... wrestled into compliance, but at great, unsustainable cost.

AND

Environments, then and now, contribute to making it more disabling than it needs to be.

No answers, just thoughts. ❤️

Today a student asked me what candy was like when I was a kid.

And THEN she asked, with a straight face, "So, how old were you when chocolate was introduced?"

Y'ALLLLLLLLLLLLL ☠️👵😩😂
