We need to bring back the ‘weird’ allegations you guys

Today's stock market crash was the worst since the Spring of 2020.

Can you guess who was president during *both* crashes? I bet you can!

I like the idea but I don’t know if it’ll hold up to the dogs.

This EO is horrific and unconstitutional and the fact that it does not include a birth certificate as proof of US citizenship is a pretty strong signal about what they think of as the future for birthright citizenship.

Has any new drug saved your life or the life of someone you know? If so, you can thank the NIH, which Trump and Musk are illegally destroying, in violation both of the law creating the NIH, and appropriations laws telling NIH what money to spend and how

Don’t use the hashtags, it’ll only get worse.

Be sure to make a couple comments and a post every day for a month. That gets you active in the algorithm and pushes you to the top of searches. Some experts recommend 10 comments per day.

Sean Gallagher (@WhatAboutClass) on twitter: "hard for me to see gender as biological if it requires a police state to enforce it"

a red and white graphic with photos of many NYC Barnes & Noble workers raising their fists, some wearing red RWDSU tshirts. White text reads: “BARNES & NOBLE WORKERS WIN HISTORIC FIRST IN THE NATION UNION CONTRACT AT NYC STORES”

BREAKING: Barnes & Noble workers have ratified historic, first-in-the-nation union contracts at three NYC Barnes & Noble stores! RWDSU Prez @stunyc.bsky.social said: “A union is the only way to ensure workplace protections are secure – especially now, while laws protecting workers are under attack.”

But they’re gonna clear the swamp. Yeah right.

Not surprised.

Whoever puts this on their list of five things they did this week should get the employee of the year award

So in conclusion, get your #kindle books off Amazon by next week, and look into moving your business elsewhere. I'm working on reducing my Amazon footprint anyway, this is just another push to keep that up. Fuck you, Bezos, and fuck you to the idiots who have voted in this administration. (6/6)

I just want to read my damn books and keep track of them without a ton of extra effort along the way. I read well over a hundred books a year, and the kindle was hands-down the most life-changing invention for me. Who knew that sixteen years later, it would be such a hassle. (5)

All in all a lot of extra work for a similar (at best) result, and possibly a worse one. I'm so fucking frustrated at all of this nonsense and how it points to continuous enshittification and squeezing of every penny out of all of us. With a nice topper of threatened censorship to boot. (4)

I'm now looking into using the Kobo e-book store for future book purchases, which then involves converting and sideloading onto my Kindle Oasis, which I plan to use until it dies and then replace with (current front-runner) a Kobo Libra Color. (3)

I've spent hours this week downloading all my books and converting them to epub format (1404 books) so that I don't lose them in the future. I've moved my reading data over to Storygraph and will be updating everything there. (2)

I am so annoyed at the further enshittification of everything. I have enjoyed a beautiful and seamless experience with my Kindles and Goodreads for years. But now that Bozo is getting even greedier and bending the knee, that experience has come to an end. (1)

This would be helpful.

Too little too late. President Muskrat already has all of our data. How about some arrests?

We only played it about halfway through one full game due to time constraints, but it was fun. Easy to follow once we got going and moves quickly. Doesn’t need a lot of space to play so would be good for travel.

I like this card from a new board game my partner and I played last night (Trails). #boardgame #art #illustration #ddop

It's not complicated. They're just trying to stop women from being able to vote.

Well this is another new bullshit problem. Guess grifting isn’t enough, now they literally want to steal the money from our bank accounts.

funniest highlights of the philly police scanner, a thread

If you call a concentration camp a "detention center," it's still a concentration camp. Just like if you call the Gulf of Mexico, the "Gulf of America," it's still the Gulf of Mexico.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
