Amazon has cut a combined 28,000 jobs since October. Its CEO made $40M+ in 2024

UPS has announced 78,000 job cuts since last year. Its CEO made $24M.

HP announced up to 6,000 layoffs in November. Its CEO made $21M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic.

Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders.

This is what a rigged economy looks like.

This is a terrible move by Charles and/or the Brit govt. absolutely wrong-headed - oblivious to the Fascist obscenities happening in our country. Disgusting. What part of “concentration camps” do they not understand? Makes me want to throw up.

No idea why.

He technically was invited by Queen Elizabeth 1st time. Monarch’s death is rare. Even though it’s 2nd time, it’s Charles 1st. Charles isn’t as bright as l’d hoped. Maybe he’ll let Andrew host. Donnie & Andrew can share favorite Epstein stories.

I have a radio stack in my truck, custom built overhead console. I've never had a problem. 10 years ago, a bridge washed out before sunrise and young lady drove into a creek with surging water levels. I heard it on scanner, went (it was close) and gave the fastest SCUBA lesson of my life. Saved her.

OTD in 1939 in Zakopane, Poland the 5th of 7 (!!) Gestapo-NKVD conferences took place, deepening Nazi-Soviet collusion in destroying the Polish state & committing crimes against humanity.

Imagine, today, the Kremlin meeting fascists to carve up eastern Europe over their heads..

President Zelenskyy tears down Trump's lies; states that Trump lives in a Russian Disinformation bubble:

"The U.S. has provided Ukraine with $67 billion in military aid and $31 billion in budget support. .... Trump’s $500 billion fossil fuel claim isn’t a serious conversation." #StandWithUkraine 📹🧵

I took some more photos of poor Pepper today. He is so sweet and loving and gentle but nobody has wanted to adopt him just because he looks a little bit scrungly. 😢 Please share with anyone you know in northern Vermont who might be interested! www.hsccvt.org/Cats#sl_embe...

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.

Well, the planet is burning.
Don't let them look away.

The ACLU gets *zero* funding from the government.

A bit disconcerting that the fellow tasked with reducing government funding doesn't know that.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.

They run them bc people react to them the most.

If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

It’s not easy and takes constant practice!
