Gavin Newsom is being extraordinarily mean to Donald Trump.

So I just sent him a donation.

A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security with 100% of their income.

A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security with less than 1% of their income.

Who agrees it’s time to scrap the cap?

I know most of these guys don’t want to be where they are right now. Just watching this clearly they’re all like we don’t wanna be in a viral video. Let’s get the fuck out of here and their buddy is like come on man. Maybe mustache man is from a little farther out or is political.

I’m sorry, but I spent 15 years with DC police as a reserve. This national guardsman thinks he’s going to call DC Police and have the individual arrested for playing a soundtrack song from Star Wars while walking down the street? Get the fuck out of here. These guys need some more education.

They’re chasing quotas, not criminals!

The former head of Chicago’s immigration court, fired by Trump, is finally speaking out. A new lawsuit accuses the administration of unlawfully targeting documented immigrants who were already showing up to court, just so ICE could hit arrest quotas.

If someone were to propose California, leave the federal gov’t and stand alone as a nation onto itself or partner with other progressive states, I can’t say I would vote against it.

Not to be too pro technocrat, but it is astounding how much this country depended on the selflessness of like a few hundred thousand highly educated public servants who, for peanuts, made sure our food and medicine and environment etc were safe. And in return these servants were demonized.

My family got these payments when my dad died at 34 years old after serving in the Navy for a decade from what he had paid in. I was five. Jeanine is an incurious ignoramus. Thanks @jessicatarlov.bsky.social for correcting her, which is God’s work.

Howie Roseman says the #Eagles won't even scout players who have ever been violent with women:

β€œI won’t even watch them. I don't even want to talk. I can't go 'He’s really good, he did it 10 years ago and he learned from it.” It just doesn't work for us."

Original 1925 jacket cover of The Great Gatsby

The Great Gatsby
Here is a novel, glamorous, ironical, compassionate a marvellous fusion into unity of the curious incongruities of the life of the period which reveals a hero like no other one who could live at no other time and in no other place. But he will live as a character, we surmise, as long as the memory of any reader lasts.
"There was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life. ..
It was an
extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again?"
It is the story of this Jay Gatsby who came so mysteriously to West Egg, of his sumptuous er-tertainments, and of his love for Daisy Buchanan a story that ranges from pure lyrical beauty to sheer brutal realism, and is infused with a sense of the strangeness of human circumstance in a heedless universe.
It is a magical, living book, blended of irony, romance, and mysticism.

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.
