For those that can't escape Photoshop, (such as myself RIP) request an agent to speak with on their virtual assistant to switch your plan not listed on the site. I requested to REMOVE generative AI "features" or extra apps -- it took me about an hour, but my plan went from 22.99 to 15.99 a month.

Internal White House meetings going on, like, "Hopefully the racism will distract from the pedophilia which will distract from the killings which will distract from the pedophilia again which will distract from the economy which will distract from the pedophilia a third time"

This isn’t some anonymous tip. This is sworn testimony, under penalty of perjury, from someone who said Trump threatened to kill her if she exposed Epstein’s sexual abuse.

Next witness to testify is Marimar Martinez, a U.S. citizen and Chicago resident who was shot five times by CBP agents in October and was later charged with assaulting the agents who shot her. The U.S. Attorney's Office dropped those charges six weeks later.

Why we need to tax the super rich more.

Their wealth is growing MUCH faster than everyone else's.

And they're using it to outbid you for real resources: housing, assets, healthcare, education and everything else of real value.

Are ICE Detention Centers Concentration Camps? Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (CAS’11) (D-N.Y.) set off a firestorm after releasing a video comparing detention centers on the US southern border to concentration camps. Michael Zank, director of BU’s...

Was reading an article from a while ago about calling detention centers concentration camps (about AOC from 2019) www.bu.edu/articles/201...

It contained a line I’d never heard:

β€œA better slogan, instead of β€œnever again,” is the German β€œWehret den AnfΓ€ngen,” which means: β€œResist the beginnings.”

Some hand sheets I made for the animation team! I looked at how Dana drew hands a lot and coupled it with my own anatomical knowledge of hands. #KnightsOfGuinevere

My perhaps controversial assessment is that when you share the propaganda of your enemies to call it out or to mock it… you’re still spreading their propaganda and maybe doing exactly what they hope you’ll do.

β€” only buy tech too old to have AI built in
β€” painstakingly disable AI every time they add it to something that used to work perfectly well
β€” if it can't be switched off, abandon the platform or tool
β€” if there are no good alternatives, avoid the AI parts
β€” patiently wait for the crash

Boston Children’s Fights Back For Trans Kids: Judge Quashes Trump Subpoena Around 2,000 BCH employees and untold numbers of patients were targeted by the DOJ. A judge just told them, β€œNo.”

1. Trump threatened every hospital that provides gender affirming care to transgender youth.

Many complied and shut down their programs.

Boston Children's Hospital didn't. They fought back and kept providing care.

And now, they just beat Trump in court.

Idle β€” The Wealth Race Can your hard work beat The Rich? Play and find out!

We need to tax wealth not work.

Why? Because usually no matter how hard you work, the compound interest on huge wealth grows much faster than your wages + the rich use this passive income to buy all the assets.

Someone made a game to show this:

Similar map showing the upper half of the united states where you can clearly see metropolitan areas are where the vast majority of liberals live. The more dense, the more democratic.

it's playing the long game, but IMO it's crucial for democratic city leaders to make living in cities the cheaper, easier, nicer option.
- High frequency + redundant + accessible transit.
- Dense housing with options for families (3bd units)
- Shelter for all
- Parks + quality public restrooms

Gonna leave this recommendation here for everyone tired of pinterest's shenanigans
