The goal is to privatize it, so they can make sure that the “right” people get healthcare, while raking in boatloads of money.

Killing NOAA, which is part of Project 2025, is literally going to kill people.

Better than me!

As a reminder, California might be more liberal than many other states, but it also has 10% of the entire US population.

While 9.2 million CA voters for Kamala, 6 million voted for Fascist 47.

More people voted for Fascist 47 in CA than there are people in 31 different states. So yeah, CA is blue, but it’s also insanely red, too.

Most of the time it’s physics.

The moths have come out to play today…

Dunno man, he and Elon are having quite the “will they, won’t they ruin America” moment right now. He’ll be solo for a bit.

He needs a place to be buried.

Nah, he cares about that holiday, not ones that celebrate minorities. So I’m guessing some time again this month in opposition to Pride, or Indigenous Peoples’ Day will have some bullshit. Even though Google already got rid of that from their calendars and kept Columbus.

It’s the gish gallop of news: do as much bullshit as possible so nothing can be effectively blocked or countered.

You don’t think people aren’t trying to unionize? Decades of anti-Union sentiment, “right to work” laws, fear of punishment for taking about pay (even though it’s protected by the NLRB), etc. are at odds with it. Shit, slavery is still legal under the 13th amendment, the very same amendment that abolished it, thanks to a loophole. California tried to abolish prison slavery, and it failed.

Unionizing in the US isn’t as simple as “let’s do it”. There are hurdles, and psychological traps, as well as tricks that employers can use to fire you to get around the law.

Even if you think you have a case, getting the resources to fight in court will be prohibitive. And any kind of measurable settlement to help embolden unionizing nationwide will be almost non-existent.

I’m not saying it’s not a battle to avoid, but it’s a Sisyphusian effort.

And to preempt any “all lives matter” bullshit:

Nazi lives don’t matter

Yep.

Free Palestine.

Journalism doing things the right way would try this out. You investigate one thing, learn about another, and inform.

Conservative subreddit is

a) bitching about Kamala being inserted in without a primary, and

b) calling out the heinous* nature of the shooting

Such is the duality of idiots.

I’ll text you about calling, just in case you’re busy. You text me back in case you didn’t need to call. Which you prolly don’t.

When they come, spray em with brake fluid.

I once filled up a 28oz Blender bottle once, since I couldn’t make it to the restroom. Still had like 6+ oz left. Holding that in hurt a lot.
