Sometimes I remember that Everything Everywhere All at Once exists and I just scream

No money for healthcare for working class Americans, whose suffering and death they do not care about.

Just billions toward reckless and unnecessary wars at home and abroad

They get mad when people on SNAP want to buy soda

Holy fuck

God what a pretty hole

Screenshot from NY Mag feature on how much people make in NYC: "Bronx Day-Care Worker $31,000 $16,600 from day-care profits $14,400 from trainings and consulting Last year, I lost a lot of kids. I live in the Bronx, and a bunch of families in my neighborhood lost their child-care vouchers. We're talking about people who make as much as I do; most of the moms I work with are home health aides. They can't afford full-time child care. If I have 16 kids, I can pay myself for 40 hours of work. But last year, I didn't, and obviously I'm still doing the same amount of work. I've been running the day care out of my home for more than seven years. It's a profession I entered out of necessity and have stayed in out of passion. I pay for everything - food, cleaning supplies, toys - and we have to meet the same requirements as a large company in terms of paying for liability insurance, which can feel pointless in this industry. I mean, if something happens to one of my children, I lose my license. End of story."

Screenshot from NY Mag feature about how much people make in NYC: "Consultant $17,000,000 $9.5 million from consulting fees $7.5 million in stock in companies that went public The big-picture way that I make my money is consulting; that work covers my day-to-day. Separate from that, I had stock in a couple of companies that went public. Because I made money later in life, my tastes and needs are a lot simpler. I don't spend money on things like having multiple homes, or flying private, or watches, or boats. I make enough money that I do what I want and I don't think about it. I also don't believe in leaving my kids a crazy amount of money because everyone I know who has that is fucked up, so why would I do that to them?"

When people in the future ask what America was show them this

fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. Music policy advocates i know have been working on and fighting for this for YEARS.

Beverly (1969-2009): An intensely bitter before-dinner drink from Coca-Cola, it was made with grapefruit rind. Primarily sold in Italy, it developed a cult following in the U.S. Can still be found on tap at the Coca-Cola museums and EPCOT in Disney World.

I am shocked to learn this is actually underestimating costs, because it ignores the infrastructure costs.

This video is lowballing it.

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

Delicious 🤤

Heads up: Indexing by @seananmcguire.bsky.social is on US Kindle sale for $2.50; as is usually the case when I see it at that price, I have acquired some for random giveaway.

what is it about the floor that sometimes just laying in it recharges your battery way fast, whats the science of floor time

Swoon

i'm not an economist but if 900 people can afford to fund $3,000 checks to damn near everyone else in america and still be insanely fuckin rich afterwards maybe they have too much fuckin money

Nobody is this dumb. Landsman is a collaborator. Primary and remove.

I know so many people whose lives would begin to stabilise if they got a $3k cheque.

🥱

waow

I'll always be obsessed with this edit made by @tommchenry.bsky.social

The Republican Party is too far-right extremist for Dan Crenshaw. Democratic incumbents are losing to more progressive challengers by wide margins. Something to keep in mind next time Democratic consultants dust off their old "tack right to win the center" powerpoints yet again.

I’m looking disrespectfully 😵‍💫

Yes 😌

An incredible investigation. This isn't just happening to gaming sites, either - St. Louis' local alt newspaper The Riverfront Times was bought and hollowed out in the same way, and now shows ai, onlyfans, and crypto garbage.
