It would be very healthy for human species, If there is less Discouragement.
HAPPENING NOW: Hundreds of protesters have now gathered outside a federal courthouse in downtown Milwaukee to support Judge Hannah Dugan
Funny how the paperwork only matters when itβs a woman or minority voter.
Seriously, why is RFK Jr worried about dyes in food when his department is cutting safety standards for milk and chicken?
If someone tells me to βtake it down a notch,β that guarantees an immediate 4 to 5 notch increase. Do not try to de-notch me.

Bluesky is collegial and interesting, the way Twitter used to be. Bonus: most people can spell.
Marriottβs CEO said it straight: βWe welcome allβ¦ we create opportunities for allβ¦ thatβs who we are as a company.β
He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying βthank you.β
Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.
Marriott still has my business.
The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.
Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.
The list goes on and on.
Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Democratic Governor Tony Evers has successfully increased school funding for the next 400 YEARS in Wisconsin by crossing out a few numbers in a bill to change it from β2024β25β to β2425.β
The state Supreme Court just upheld his right to do so.
Just spoke with my CDC sources. They were in tears.
Budgets cut. RFJK has ordered them not to publicize bird flu symptoms in exposed workers. Not to test them. Not to speak.
They know people are getting sick. And theyβre being forced to stay silent.
This is not just a cover-up. It's cruelty.
History always has a lesson.
This is me 24/7 nowadays

Bully: Hey Columbia, gimme your lunch money.
Columbia: Here you go. (He'll leave us alone now, right?)
Bully: Gimme a year's lunch money, Columbia.
Columbia: OK, here you go.
Bully: Hey Harvard, gimme two year's lunch money.
Harvard: No.
Bully: Uh... that lunch money request was an accident.
This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.
Side note : I love your shower curtain

Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts.
