AOC on MTG retiring: "She's carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office."

As someone who nearly died in childbirth, despite excellent health and the medical care of a highly developed country (not the US), my anger at forced-birthers is matched only by that at "free birthers," who bully women into believing it's a status symbol to give birth without medical help.
At St James’ Church at Cooling in Kent are still to be seen the 13 children’s graves surrounding that of their parents that inspired Dickens to write the opening chapter of Great Expectations.
I guess even the folk memory of the huge mortality of childbirth and early life is now disappearing.

I don't know how much more apt & appropriate this could be, but some dude in my area has a Cybertruck with an advertising* wrap for Slaydot pimple patches.

AI empowers the worst people to write more emails and create more Excel sheets and, ultimately, take up more of everyone else's time.
We've lost about a year's progress at work trying to implement it.

And who helped coordinate those efforts? SCOTUS Justice Clarence Thomas' wife Virginia. She arranged for and paid for buses to bring the protestors to DC, and Trump himself forbade the Secret Service from using metal detectors to scan for weapons as he knew they weren't for him.

Thanks to his new Tesla pay package, Elon Musk could stand to make $3 billion more per year than all 1.4 million elementary school teachers in the U.S. combined. Still wondering if inequality is out of control?

When I worked at a bookstore, I quickly learned that people cannot tell the difference between Xmas music and any Baroque or Elizabethan music album that doesn't get too organ-ish. I used this to my advantage.

If we had to hear “Baby Shark” everywhere we went for two whole months out of the year we’d throw a fit, right?
And rightfully so.
So tell me, why do we put up with it when the song is “Frosty the Snowman”?

1/ Okay, I do not live in a rich neighborhood. Half my neighbors have temporarily defunct cars on their property (hidden from the HOA that won't act until it's obvious.)
But we live near some very rich and very wasteful people. For $5.28 & coupon I now have a large pink & ecru linen tablecloth.

I've known this since around 1999ish. When I saw the climate change models & realized the major capital players would only dig in to make safe enclaves for their Big Players. Thiel's NZ compound, Zuckerberg Hawaii 'farm', even Elon's 'robots will solve everything'.
Genocide is their core strategy.

They want us chained to churches.
The dismantling of public health systems is also a reorganizing of the public health economy to Christian grift. It’s the parallel track of dismantling all public social services especially education
