Apropos of nothing a full page ad from the Onion

The pretexts for these paramilitary takeovers don’t matter

They’re lies

Don’t buy into their narrative

Financing Our Own Destruction Are we taking this fascism thing seriously?

The retirement money of public employees is invested in firms run by Thiel, Andreesen, DOGE goons, and others who are trying to destroy the public sector. We can stop doing that.

Thoughts and prayers. And a whole lotta laughter.
