And reproductive rights aren’t great either.

today, we will treat sewage.

we will manage the foul remnants of our past, the health of our present, the hope of our future.

days end, but the mission endures.

because there will be sewage to treat tomorrow. but this day is today.

and today, we will treat sewage.

Rumblings that have started re: shutting down air traffic control and TSA aren’t hollow, it is their next likely step to punish us for last night’s victory.

One interesting result of the new app for the grocery chain I shop at, is that my purchase history is available. I can see how much items have increased in price over 5+ years. In case I thought higher grocery prices were being gaslit, prices in fact are increasing YoY.

The web that tried to steal the presidency Chapter 1 What is it that happens when first we practice to deceive? I forget. If you are anything like me, you tuned into cable news coverage of the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021 and thought to yours...

If you didn't see over the weekend, I took the 1,700-plus pages of Jan. 6 subpoenas Chuck Grassley made public last week and mapped out the connections between the people and organizations they mention. www.howtoreadthisch.art/the-web-that...

My niece reads teen vogue for the political articles, she’s not much into the fashion or makeup. Wondering if there is another journalistic outlet writing politics for teens that I can seek out for her.

The idea that you should let an employee go because the β€˜waters may have better fish’, in this economy is ludicrous. Why terminate a skilled employee when a new hire will take 2-3 years to bring up to speed to have the same skillset you just let go. Yes, my employer is going to trip on themselves.

Crazy to think we have to ask ourselves, is he lying or does he not remember. Either why, it’s crazy pants that he continues to do this.

Tivo was a leap forward, it was inventive, and it did have a following, for decades. I’ll probably never agree with Mr. Dementia but this isn’t all lies and living in nostalgia, it was a thing and he was likely the target audience.

We don’t test herbal supplements and don’t validate their efficacy. Snake oil at best.

Tone deaf GOP. No amount of food bank ramp up can make up for the loss of SNAP benefits. The Rs are starving their constituents deliberately.

Somehow I’m reminded of the time our rented house was being sold and the real estate agent would show up w/o asking. We finally made sure the place looked unlivable and left the MLS listing from 2 months previous on the table to show that the price had ⬆️.

Sorry you’re dealing with w/ this.

From what I know from listening to friends who understand this more than I do, the algorithm is going to try mightily to come up with something. It’s up to a human with a brain to say gosh, this must be flawed. Sadly, the individuals using this tech aren’t in the job to ask questions.

And it is worth remembering, current facial recognition does poorly with accurately identifying people with darker skin tones. If you aren’t white, it is much more likely to mis-identify a person.

Back in the day McDonalds offered metal detector screening by local PD on Halloween. Not sure a single razor blades was ever found.

If you live in a state where Oscar is an option for your health insurance AVOID it like the plague. They wouldn't cover the second 1/2 of a vaccine shot. I had to switch companies to get it resolved and they lied to NY State about the entire battle. It's a GARBAGE company.

β€œReal work” πŸ‘€ what do they suggest is real work? Stocking shelves and doing inventory at walmart is real work, it just doesn’t pay a living wage.

Not sure where they import their bears from down there. Here the only thing a bear will take is a chicken, they’re more likely to ravage the compost pile or go after the donuts you bait them with.
