When Kristi Noem claims she’ll make sure “the right people” vote and elect “the right leaders,” that’s not election security, it’s authoritarianism. Free societies collapse when leaders stop competing for voters and start curating them.
This year, in a nod to financial insecurity, Sweethearts is mixing in hearts that say things like "Split Rent." or "Share Login." or "Car Pool." The Sweethearts people call it "Love in this economy."
What are they missing? Here's what we came up with.
As consumers, we have tremendous power. My friend @profgalloway.com has provided a very simple set of tools. RESIST and UNSUBSCRIBE: www.resistandunsubscribe.com
Not to get political, but America is very pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and I think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time
Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
A graphic image of a space heater and an unwrapped gift and tissue paper one metre away. The text reads "Keep things that can burn 3 feet (1 metre) away from heat sources." The text reads "Give your heater a little holiday space to warm your home safely." The Halifax Regional Fire & Emergency logo is in the right-hand corner.
On the fifth day of holiday fire prevention, your fire department reminds you to give space heaters plenty of room.
• Keep anything that can burn at least one metre (or three feet) away from the heater.
• Plug space heaters directly into the wall. Never use extension cords or power bars.
Not to be controversial but I think we should use tools and resources to make people's lives less miserable instead of more
The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

My poor brother booked an @americanair.bsky.social flight today...so far first leg got cancelled, so they put him through a different connecting city with a 9:55am connection, delayed to 11am, then 12:30pm, then 2pm, 4pm, 3:47pm, 4:25pm, then cancelled. 😡
The good news about switching from Amazon is that there are plenty of options online to meet a variety of needs (not to mention all of the in-person, small business, and secondhand shopping you can do, too!)

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

Had an accident in November, other driver 100% liable. It was totaled, but the settlement offer from the other driver's insurance (The Hartford) came in super low. Did they know I was going to doublecheck their comps? Well, I am checking. And I am finding mistakes.
