While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test...
McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time." Generals and military scholars will tell you that eight or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history - which is no doubt true - but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a wartime economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed. That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks.

Iranian intelligence has a huge advantage since they can just check polymarket to see what the US will do next.

On days like today, with so much uncertainty in the world, I’m reminded why community matters so much.
Grateful we had our mutual aid knitting circle this morning to slow down, be together, and hold space for each other.
There is no marketing I'm more susceptible to these days than any company saying they don't use generative AI in their projects. I'm a sitting duck for that promise even if they're selling graham crackers or masking tape.
Our baby has been alive for two deadly, illegal campaigns by the U.S. to remove a foreign leader. She’s 7 weeks old.
sure the pedophile felon president just illegally bombed a country that may have nukes while federal forces under his command murder and harass people in america and immigrants are tortured and he moves forward with plans to build concentration camps and sorry idk where i was going fuck all of this
There was some reporting today about my foreign policy positions, which surprised everyone… including me.
To clarify, here’s where I stand:
Hate to lib out here, but even if there was some sort of clear, strategic goal, this would still be highly illegal and the president should be impeached and removed from office immediately.
Can't wait to be surprised when 85 million Americans don't remember this in a decade.

The right to vote isn't a privilege we were granted; it's one side of a deal where we get a fair say in who governs us, and in exchange we don't tar and feather powerful people and throw them in a hog sty.
Looking for a way to stand up for trans people today? Here's something you can do RIGHT NOW:

“Company towns, exploitative working contracts, things like that have always been what sparked the biggest progressions in labor rights,” Jetson told me. “And really, that is what’s happening here, in the realest tradition of the American labor movement.”

Sheri’s Ranch responded to the petition for union recognition by firing workers Jupiter Jetson, Molly Wylder, Paloma Karr, Adalind Gray, Genevieve Dahl, and Gwen Bunny.
The union will be fighting their unlawful terminations, but for now, they need our support: www.gofundme.com/f/support-sh...
When faced with a shockingly exploitative new employment contract that would’ve forced them to sign away their IP, their likeness rights, and their power of attorney, Jupiter Jetson and her coworkers at Sheri’s fought back—fast.
They organized a union in SIX DAYS. www.thenation.com/article/econ...

The people in this administration famously misinterprets or misunderstands media though.
I think they’d start pushing for more Nuclear War AI “like in the movie” :(
Let me re-introduce myself. And why our campaign is doing things differently.
the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light
One cool thing about unequivocally hating AI is that you will be proven right over and over again every single day
It seems all Kansas-issued trans drivers' licenses are invalid, effective tomorrow
It is now illegal for trans people to drive a car until they surrender their license at a DMV (that most will need to drive to) and have it reissued with the wrong gender marker
This was never about woman's sports
