I made money with my social media. The secret is simple - you have to train the algorithm, and you have to post regularly. So put together three to five videos. Post that much every single day. By now you're working over forty hours and hopefully - this is where I tune out this kind of advice.

Kinda tired of this American tradition of we taxpayers funding wars that do absolutely nothing to help us Americans. Life unaffordable? Have another war. #Iran

Of course, then lots of people will be harmed. That's why I'm not giving a cent to the Dem Party any longer until Schumer and Jeffries/Pelosi are far removed from leadership.

One more time, WAR IS BAD. #NoWarWithIran

This is why the Democratic party has barely a concerted push to stop an impending Iran war. If they let Trump do it, Dem Leadership knows it will be bad for Trump and that means easier fundraising for Dems.

It's then easier for them to raise money. They don't have to deliver anything, they just have to say "At least we're not monsters like the GOP."

Remember kids, WAR IS BAD.

The Pelosi (now Jeffries) and Schumer strategy seems to remain - and in my memory has always been - it's better FOR THEM when they let Republicans harm the American People.

But we have the money to war with Iran?

Impending war with Iran: once again we’re going to have complete strangers murdering and maiming each other for no reason other than the egos of evil men. It will be financed by the families of those who suffer and die. It will benefit them not one bit. Can we finally say no to war? #Iran #NoWar

Same except I feel that way about everything. I just get irritated with how people tell stories sometimes.

Join me at the next No Kings Day

Families can't afford healthcare, food, and housing, but Trump is spending billions to send violent ICE agents into our communities. I'm marching on March 28 to say NO KINGS. app.sosha.ai/s/NQmdMXb3 #NOKINGS

Can an A.I. vibe-coded app save lives? Maybe! Take a look at my entry in Google's Gemini 3 Hackathon - Agent: Ingredients - snap a pic of your food or the ingredients on the package... and scan for allergens (or for any other dietary goals) #ai #vibecoding open.substack.com/pub/beanieco...

I've noticed many businesses I've visited have posted notices like "We are closed on Monday." But they don't say WHY. I've seen it in enough places that it feels like a pattern. I like to think this is a silent, subtle rebellion against the current toxic turd in the White House. #PresidentsDay

Regulations are what keeps ordinary Americans healthy and, often, alive.

It took spoiled meat and rodent droppings out of our food. It took harmful lead out of our gasoline and paint. It took poison out of our water.

Deregulation only achieves one goal: making rich corporations richer.

Audibly shitting in his adult diaper during a press conference is my favorite tactic of Trump’s attempts to distract from the Epstein files. #MAGA

Tap Tap Word: a Minimal, Fun, Free WordΒ Game As a lifelong gamer I am starting to sound like a grumpy man: "They don't make videogames like they used to." Well, no, they don't. That's mostly a good thing if you compare Pong to Battlefield. What I don't like about modern games are simple concepts with pointless trappings added to increase the sacred engagement metric. Games have too much animation, too much noise, bonus rounds, extra unlocks, level ups and multiplayer and please just stop! It’s all too much. If you don’t have device-induced ADHD these games will give it to you.

Tell Congress: Impeach DHS Secretary Kristi Noem Contact Congress today!

After just a few short weeks, our effort to impeach Kristi Noem is already close to success. You did that.

Now let’s keep up the pressure. Tell loser Mike Johnson and the rest of the cowards in Congress we’re not stopping until they finish the job:

Hey Linkedin, do you feel it's time to rethink taking down my sober observation that Trump is very Hitler-ish? #MAGA #Trump #Hitler #censorship #hatespeech

Agreed. Just because Trump isn't Hitler yet doesn't mean it's from lack of trying. He definitely is heading that direction and we should be allowed to say so. Things take time. A stitch of resistance in time saves nine.

What is this feeling? It's pride!
I'm proud of you USA for fighting back.
It seems I was never alone.
There are millions of you out there who care.
Seeing the folks in MN - and everywhere - resisting.
There are others who want to make the USA live to its ideals.
Thank you all.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?

ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.

I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.
