I got this useful bon mot from a middle school teacher recently.
In response to, “I DONT UNDERSTAND,” he calmly said, “okay what steps have you taken to understand?”
And that’s when I realized that a lot of folks have no steps.

I didn’t know there was a bill that would raise taxes on sports betting but now I’m highly supportive of anything that could hurt the gambling industry

With today’s omnipresent surveillance you could never have a Hannah Montana. She’d be doxxed as Miley Stewart in a blonde wig immediately by the online mobs. Look what they’ve taken from us.

BREAKING: We won!
Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years.

I'm not that kind of doctor, but reading reporting on how Philly doctors are using AI to take notes is maddening; taking the notes is part of the care, and they have no right to compromise my privacy in the name of efficiency. the problem is the profit-motive, not the inefficiency of doctoring.

NEW: Dems easily flipped the sheriff's office in Pennsylvania's Bucks County, a big swing county in the Philly suburbs.
So? The incumbent GOP sheriff had contracted with ICE. His Dem challenger promised to end the contract.
Now he wants other swing-state Dems to look at his victory as a lesson:

I don’t want to start the week feeling angry and powerless.
I invite you to take action to support immigrants in Philadelphia, by supporting the work of Juntos. In the weeks/years ahead we will need it very much.

I would feel better if the mass murder of a third of the country (presumably destroying the lives of countless others) wasn’t something people felt they could advocate out loud
It's impossible to build any more housing in America, but luckily we have the politically easy and physically effortless alternative of just removing a third of the population.
This clown is the GOP chair in Tarrant County, Texas, the third largest county in the state.
