"SINGLES TAX" HITTING RENTERS is a new and interesting way to do a story about people saving money by having roommates.

When I say everyone involved for this should go to prison, I’m also including the people behind the AI that helped slaughter children
in the store just now and there was a couple looking at those prepped toddler meals and he was saying “everything’s better if you just cook from scratch” and she goes “they don’t look bad and they’d save me so much time” and he just kept repeating “it’s better if you cook”
I did not commit a crime
NEW: Texas has been minority-ruled by conspiracy theorists for years. Tuesday’s primary was a prime example of the ways that a foolish few can block broad electoral access for many. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/texa...
Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...

I say this because I love my country and the people therein:
The United States is due for a new era.
We've been living in a neo-Gilded Age that has culminated bit by bit since the Regan administration and its damn high time we rein in the power of both the President and multinational corporations.
Imaging a human saying to you, "i will only ever tell you what i think you want to hear, based on what i know about ppl like you, how you start our conversation, & what you say during it. Sometimes that will sound like truth, sometimes like errors or lies. Now: Let's talk about your medical history"
Bernie Sanders’ billionaire tax would soak about 900 people to fund $3,000 checks for the middle class

Inquiry for New York Times
Good afternoon,
My name is [REDACTED]
and l am a reporter for the
New York Times. I am researching how much money the Palestinian diaspora community has sent to support Gazan families since the war in Gaza began. Does your team track this figure? I really appreciate it.
With gratitude,

Hello [REDACTED]
We do not collaborate with The New York Times.
Your email asks about money sent to Gazan families "since the war in Gaza began." Let us first correct the premise. This is not a war. It is a genocide. Calling it a war is part of the problem. It obscures the reality of a colonized people being massacred by a military machine backed by the United States and defended, sanitized, and rhetorically softened by institutions like yours.
The New York Times has spent far too long parroting Zionist propaganda and laundering Israeli state narratives while Palestinians bury their dead. That kind of coverage does not merely misinform. It helps create the political climate in which Palestinian slaughter becomes explainable, defensible, and forgettable.
So no, we will not be sharing any figures, internal data, or community information with a paper that has so thoroughly damaged its credibility on Palestine. Quite frankly, we would rather chew jeans than help The New York Times extract from our community while continuing to fail it.

lmaooo GET EM
DHS repeatedly said that an aggressive apartment raid in Chicago last fall was prompted by intel on a gang takeover.
Documents show the real story behind the raid was to target alleged squatters — with the landlord's blessing.
52% of dem voters in this state really said: a white man who can't be a team player to save his life (we have receipts!), who clearly is favored by the opposition bc he *won't* turn out the vote or generate even the enthusiasm Beto did - that's our guy! But we're not sexist or racist, promise!
I don't know that this state has ever disappointed me more than it did last night. But when a crusty old precorpse wins the senate seat in November, you won't see me defending anyone except the people who voted for Jasmine Crockett bc they're the ones we let down en masse yesterday.
is anyone writing about the rise of online gambling as it relates to the (supposed) male loneliness/disaffection crisis because I would read the fuck out of that
Gotta admit, feels not so great to just keep paying taxes to the "science bad, child murder good" government
DOJ's recent 6th Circuit filing misspelled:
Voters as “Votors”
Emergency as "Emeregency"
United States as "United Staes"
And, it included a non-party in the caption.
These are the people who want access to your sensitive voting records and who my team fights in court every day.
Kafka understood that an even greater indignity than being turned into a giant insect was still being required to go to work afterward.
URGENT: Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna are using a discharge petition to force a vote on stopping Trump's war in Iran.
We've beat Mike Johnson BAD with discharge petitions before—and we'll do it again!
Tell your Rep. to sign on right now:
Seems to be the pattern…
Thanks so much to @melodyschreiber.com for not only writing about this issue, but quoting trans scientists as experts!
ICE was very active in Minneapolis today, they kidnapped multiple people. ICE didn't leave, the media has moved on but we are still under federal occupation.
It would be cool to have a legislature that acted to defend its own constitutional prerogatives and, maybe as a treat, the interests of the people it represents too.
For the smooth brains out there following the US/Israel vs Iran war. A simple explainer:
Fall of the regime: Good thing
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei dying: Good thing
85 little girls bombed & killed by US / Israel: Bad thing
Starting an illegal war: Bad thing
