Why does Wall Street want to "privatize" Social Security? So they can suck a fat profit margin in fees and commissions from your retirement savings. The rich get richer. And the rest of us get poorer.

Can my local hospital pay their nurses properly and keep their patients alive more instead of buying ads to rehabilitate their image for being so bad at doing those things previously?

I just want to know where they're putting the used toilet paper. Were they burning it in the woods thus leading to Smokey the Bear's origin story? If there's a Beariverse, is Yogi in it as part of a pic-a-nic basket theft ring, indoctrinating younger bears into a life of crime?

As someone who grew up w/rescue Dobies, I clocked a puppy girl I'm not surprised wasn't aggressive (contrary to how they're portrayed in tv and film), but one thing that was always a problem was bad owners failing to train properly, eg raising fear biters. So mad at these people. Poor/very good dog.

The one car that burned, which is being shown over and over, was set off by the flash bangs the police force was setting off.
Trump is intentionally fueling a lot of aggression for little to no provocation from protestors.

The food science behind MSG is not debatable. There have been numerous wide and repeated studies. MSG is a naturally occurring compound, which we have tastebuds specifically to sense. If you can eat aged cheese, tomatoes, or bacon (among many other foods), you can eat MSG (some do have reactions).

We should make a point of calling her Riley "Tied for Fifth" Gaines. If she's upset about that, she can jump in the pool and swim faster.
if you don’t know, professional bigot riley gaines is sharing anti black, anti trans shit from an org suing colorado in the hope of reaching the supreme court to claim the right to discriminate against trans people. it would appear, unsurprisingly, that they have broader goals—surprise!

What good is the internet if I can't use it to buy the mp3 for the original version of the Perfect Strangers theme?

Oh that's good to know! I'm still getting a feel for the place. Almost panicked earlier when I thought for a minute there wasn't a delete option for posts. It's just at the bottom so I had to scroll. Typo-crisis averted.

Kids are dying of measles. Egg prices are skyrocketing. Bird flu is out of control. Planes are falling out of the sky. Inflation is rising. Tariffs are coming. Consumer confidence is collapsing. A recession is now likely. The stock market is dropping.

I'm used to Tw*tter reminding me to type alt text (I really appreciated the ability to toggle that on so I never forgot). I just saw Bluesky has the button on the gif before you post it which is cool.

The second she started making that noise, I hit mute because I sensed it was only going to get more annoying. I take it that was a wise decision.

Such a relief that the Applause-o-Meter of Death is largely non-existent at the #Oscars In Memoriam this year. Except for a minority, they seem to understand that it's incredibly tacky to only clap for some (probably famous) people.

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

More accurate, fewer words;
"There are plenty of contractors going under".
A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary.
PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

Why do I feel like the commenter who said MeToo was over and 'there are more important things' was firmly in the D*pp camp in that defamation suit and can't wait to tell you how she doesn't like Blake Lively?

Wouldn't mind Jeremy Strong winning the Oscar, partly because he's talented and partly because it would really piss off Brian Cox.

You guys, since we can just call it whatever we want and given its proximity to her highness’ birthplace, isn’t it obvious it really should be the Gulf of #Beyoncé ..? 🧐

There's no such place as the Gulf of America. Why don't they just call it the Gulf of El*n M*sk's balls because that's all Tr*mp cares about anyway.

I'm excited to be part of it and to collectively enjoy singing a particular phrase during the halftime show a la the Grammys audience. Not giving you-know-who my clicks.
PS. Just started reading Game of Thrones today. Arya ftw.

It speaks well of Bluesky that right after I joined it, I was rewarded with a Tab Hunter thirst trap. Already winning.
