My 🔥 take for today:
Being a billionaire is a moral failing. You have more money than you could ever spend. You could do so much good with it, and you don't. When you run out of things to buy, you start buying people and power. When what you really need is a mirror.

Does anyone in our Bluesky #fiberarts community know any good tutorials for felting over mending on fine knit sweaters? I know it's POSSIBLE, I'm just not too confident in the Google machine these days, and while I think I did a pretty decent job, I want extra strength for my repairs.

This is less a function of layoffs than it is none of the reliable data supporting their position so they have to go hunting for data that does.
Not saying the layoffs have nothing to do with it, but I would bet a dollar they have data that's scaring the shit out of them so they went with this.

@thebulwark.com, an interesting thing happened and no one is talking about it. Louisiana, which has always had jungle primaries for my entire life, is going to be having closed party primaries for national races.
I would love to hear your thoughts on that. Especially Tim, since he's in Louisiana.

I just got a lovely thank you letter from the League of Women Voters. They are thanking me for my donation in September in memory of Charlie Kirk.
Pretty sure a donation in his name to an organization dedicated to women would burn his biscuits.

This. This right here. My neighbors next door in Mississippi did themselves a solid today.
BREAKING: Democrats just broke the GOP supermajority in the Mississippi Senate!
In a stunning victory, Democrats gained seats in court-ordered special elections and will now head to Jackson to represent and fight on behalf of their constituents.

Good. Even leeches have a medical use. The rich serve little purpose beyond the exploitation of our labor for their own gain. Sometimes their businesses make things. Sometimes.
This actually makes them part of the social contract instead of above it.
