Holy hell! I drive a VW Beetle TDI because it gets amazing fuel mileage. But daaaaammmmnnn! Diesel hit $4.50 a gallon today! I hope all the Texans that voted for this start feeling it as they drive their big ass trucks with their Trump stickers.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Once again, a single cartoon tells more truth that the entire US Congress.

Thanks to Rick McKee for making our current situation easy to understand.

Why hasn’t Donald Trump sued anyone who has accused him of being a pedophile?

Dem Senators need to use Morning Hour (on CSPAN) to read from the Epstein Files that describe what Trump did as he raped and beat underage girls. How they were forced to perform oral sex on him, how he hit them, parade them out for β€œauction", naked @schumer.senate.gov @chrismurphyct.bsky.social

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

That was going to be my question too. There is zero reason the windows need to be broken to detain an innocent citizen trying to go to work.

Seriously, wtf is going on?! This administration is totally and completely out of control.

I miss when social media was fun and made me laugh. I was looking through my old Twitter feed and the further back I got, the more I laughed. I miss laughing.

I see you've got your fist out

Say your piece and get out

Yes I get the gist of it but it's alright

Sorry that you feel that way

The only thing there is to say

Every silver lining's got a touch of grey

I will get by

I will get by

I will get by

I will survive

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.

Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

I have a alarm clock on my night stand so I don’t have to fumble with my phone during the night to see the time but I use my phone for my alarms. (Although.. it is one of those alarm clocks that wake you up using light instead of sound and I should try using it, I’ve heard waking up is easier. πŸ€”)
