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?

It will never sit right with me the sheer amount of people who have chosen to live in an alternate reality where their lives are measurably worst, rather than admit that they were lied to by the GOP.

An X user asks Elon Musk why they’re seeing tweets from left-wing lawmakers.
Musk: “Because we are failing very badly with the recommendations algorithm. Doing my best to address this.”

Iowa City made buses free in August 2023 with a goal of lowering emissions and encouraging people to take public transit.
Now ridership is up, traffic is down, and the program is extremely popular.
So popular that the City Council has voted to extend it for another year.

When Trump was asked about the release of the Epstein files, he called one reporter "piggy" and said another was "being insubordinate."
When Trump saw a video calling on the military to follow the constitution, he called for the death of the Democrats who made the video.
He's a tyrant.

This is the level of intelligence and logic you would expect from a “Markwayne”
Markwayne Mullin: "Reward people for being healthy. Think about this. Healthcare is the only industry that you're not rewarded for taking care of your responsibility. If you think about homeowners insurance, if you're within 500 feet of a fire hydrant, your insurance goes down."

Took me more than the first half of my lived life to realize that white supremacy was damaging to me as a white man.
But once I got it, it was impossible to unsee.
It’s why the modern GOP gets under my skin so much, as does any suggestion that the left compromise on equal rights.

How is the “party of business” so unbelievably stupid about how markets work over and over again…
Cassidy: "If she goes and gets 2 types of shampoo & one is a dollar cheaper, she'll get the cheaper one & the other lowers their price. Once you give her the power of making the decision, she's gonna shop -- that begins to save her money and squeezes waste out of the healthcare system."
