Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

Immigration is good. It's not "not bad", it's actually "very good". It's moral, ethical, and good for a country's culture, economy, cuisine, security, and stability. The US needs more. Every country in the EU needs more.

Anti-immigrant politics and policies are slowly killing entire countries.

In 1970, unemployment was super low (3.5%) and minimum wage jobs paid $14 an hr in today's money.

Today, unemployment is also super low (3.6%), but minimum wage jobs only pay ~$7.25 an hr.

People aren't faking when they say they're struggling.

an overlooked aspect of all these “bluesky is an echo chamber” pieces is that the writers bizarrely think that the only reason people use social media is to talk about politics, which is true only for a subset of users

Okay, y’all… I have finally decided that retreat is the better part of valor. Bringing some rainbow energy over to these blue skies.

I finally got around to watching the fifth season of Fargo. I’ve gotta say, that’s certainly the strangest Bisquick ad I’ve ever seen!

Biden was right, Trump's supporters are garbage.

Not even remotely sorry about it. They've spent the last 9 years reveling in every anti-American comment Trump has ever made, hell, they loved Trump's statement that the US itself is a garbage can.

They can fuck right off with this pearl clutching.
Man, even Bluesky posters opening up their threads with “look obviously we agree that what Biden said was dumb and damaging” is pissing me off. We don’t have to adopt right wing framing and doom off of it. We simply don’t. It’s frankly embarrassing.

Removing most or even many of these departments would mean ceasing to function as a university for all intents and purposes. Looking for cost savings by analyzing department “cash flow” is extremely short sighted, there are a lot of interconnected pieces here that are difficult to disentangle.

This is how you know the War on Christmas isn’t real, if it were the insurgency would involve sending Jewish five year olds to kindergarten armed with the information that Santa isn’t real and their friends should know it.

How can a Texas high school put on a production of “Oklahoma!”? School productions should be based on the state assigned at birth.
A Texas high school has told a student he can't play the male lead in "Oklahoma!" because he's transgender, citing a new school policy requiring all roles in student productions to be cast based on the gender assigned at birth.
Sherman High School transgender student loses lead theater role over gender policy
The district said for this specific show, the gender of the role as identified in the script will be used for casting.

So funny ... one of the big TelCo's (Optus) services went down across the nation this morning, affecting millions of people and businesses.
