Social Security disability insurance is just that: Insurance for when life happens.
We paid into it through every paycheck.
Now that I need this system, I'm being told I'm a burden.
But the burden is not us, the people. It's the rich. - @syannebloom.bsky.social

"The collapse of American democracy is like the pandemic: Whatever you say at the beginning will sound alarmist β but likely prove inadequate by the end."

Iβm very tired of hearing βhe canβt do thatβ.
Can. Will. Is doing.
The solution was to not elect him in 2016 and then be stupid enough to do it again in 2024.
2025 is a fucking dumpster fire.

Sweden, like all the Nordic countries, firmly supports the need for the quickest possible, just, and reliable end to the war, as well as effective pressure on Russia.
I may leave & say good luck.

Trump putting the National Guard in DC is to protect the White House from a revolution.
By the way 2A nutters, this is the tyranny you've been foaming about
I shouldn't laugh, 'cause D.C. does not deserve this, but dammit the visual of this is very, very funny

I cannot believe the thing that might turn out to be our Reichstag Fire involves a guy called Big Balls. Even in the throes of descent into fascist theocracy we remain a deeply unserious country.

This is insane stuff. D.C. is not in the grip of a crime wave. Crime has been falling for three years now. Violent crime is at a 30-year low.
Two things can be true:
1) The President has legal authority over the D.C. police and the D.C. National Guard that he doesn't have *anywhere else* in the country; &
2) Even if this doesn't set a legal precedent, it sets an ominous *political* precedent for pretextually overriding local government.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but this is where all the criminals hang out in D.C.
