This is what heroin must feel like

and the poor folks that have to work at these places mean no harm, they’re not equipped with training or answers and their jobs aren’t made to help. it’s demeaning and enraging.

late stage capitalism is garbage

I’ve dealt with three businesses’ customer service centers today and it’s time we call it - phone trees are trash are meant to make you wanna hang up. I wanna throw my phone into the sea.

Corporate Media Buries Story of US and Israel Killing 168 in Girls School Attack No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.

Americans Stranded in the Middle East Aren’t Getting Help from the State Department “Please do not rely on the U.S. government for assisted departure or evacuation,” a State department hotline said when NOTUS called Tuesday afternoon.

NEWS: Americans were told to evacuate the Middle East — but the State Dept is not helping them do it.

We called the State hotline. First thing you hear is an automated message: "Do not rely on the U.S. government for assisted departure or evacuation."

Effective IMMEDIATELY, I have ordered the United States Development Finance Corporation (DFC) to provide, at a very reasonable price, political risk insurance and guarantees for the Financial Security of ALL Maritime Trade, especially Energy, traveling through the Gulf. This will be available to all Shipping Lines. If necessary, the United States Navy will begin escorting tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, as soon as possible. No matter what, the United States will ensure the FREE FLOW of ENERGY to the WORLD. The United States' ECONOMIC and MILITARY MIGHT is the GREATEST ON EARTH - More actions to come. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Trump says US will use the Development Finance Corporation to provide political risk insurance for maritime trade in the Gulf, with possible US Navy escorts through Strait of Hormuz.

Companies would pay insurance premiums to US — effectively making DC financial backstop for global energy shipping.

The rate of destruction of U.S. science is just senseless. It's willful, still senseless.

I’m actually not sure we can come back from “prediction markets for war crimes”, as a society. I think this might be it for us.

This is what happens when you effectively have no ethical rules at the top of government — virtually limitless opportunities for insider profiteering.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1.5 trillion.

Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.

The military industrial complex is cheering today.

if the media had any integrity — and it doesn’t anymore — they’d be pointing out on a loop that Obama made a deal with Iran, Trump cancelled it because Obama is Black, and then Trump started a war on the pretense there is no deal

And I'd add to the list deregulation. Which is less about eliminating so-called "inefficiencies" than about stripping away protections for people at the bottom of the hierarchy and denying them any legal recourse.

Pitching ANTM as a way to broaden the beauty standard is Really Something™️

Like it might have represented a broadening of standards within professional modeling, I'm not the person to argue that. But on an audience level, more often than not, it policed and narrowed those standards of beauty.

so grateful for the librarians in my life and in my community 📚

Star Trek The Original Series scene. Montgomery Scott, in his red uniform and with a floral red velvety looking backdrop, looks happy. Like, just SO happy. He's beaming, not StarTrek beaming, just happy beaming. Closed caption reads: [BANGING]
