in the eternal words of Tupac, “they got money for wars but can’t feed the poor”

(though I’d quibble it’s “won’t” feed the poor, not can’t)

about 2/3 of the way through watching Hillary Clinton’s deposition from last week for a piece…regardless of how you feel about her politics, hard not to feel for her - seems no woman has been dragged through the mud so viciously for the sins of her husband and those in her orbit. and yet she rises.

100% this. not only do I want to do my own writing and have @jamieriley.bsky.social edit me, I’m not going to contribute to the devastation of Black/brown/poor communities by billionaire parasites and their data centers

Nobody hates living veterans more than Republicans. Dead veterans they can exploit in videos. But living veterans with opinions and medical needs are literally offensive to conservatives.

the last season of “madam secretary” - which aired in 2019 - had an episode about killer robots. as president, Elizabeth brokered a pact with russia and china that they’d never develop them because of the obvious potential for them to be used for wanton killings

you know what’s funny? I have never once in my life texted to someone or received a text with dozens of ways to kill white people

you know how pathetic you have to be that your defining trait is being a gutter racist?

it’s almost like Black people have money too.

when a company that was pretty loud and proud about its commitment to BIPOC brands shuts it down overnight because a dementia-addled racist makes the mere suggestion they should, people respond with their wallets.

she is so contemptible.

still asking myself nearly every day how people can be so gleefully depraved.

A screenshot of the Polymarket website showing a prediction market titled "Nuclear weapon detonation by...?" under the Geopolitics and Ukraine categories. The market displays three betting options with their current probabilities and "Buy Yes" or "Buy No" prices: "March 31" at 5%, "June 30" at 12%, and "Before 2027" at 22%. The total trading volume shown is over $843,000.

Polymarket has created a betting market on the use of nuclear weapons. Everyone involved in this should be put in prison for life.

Trump went from an obviously fake “No More Forever Wars” to “No! More Forever Wars” pretty fast

Social media created this nonsense idea that not exposing yourself to hatred is isolationist. Choosing to not spend your free time with bigots isn’t living in a bubble. I don’t need to know what’s going on at X. I won’t be smarter or more knowledgeable or empathic by being there. Neither will you.

People overseas love their kids just as much as you love yours. Your kids aren’t more special just because they were born on US soil

Imagine if whether you lived or died depended on whether an old senile and malevolent man got annoyed by a segment on CNN or if there’s another news story about a minor development in the Epstein Files?
