Do NOT DM me. DM = block. I am a fierce defender of democracy. Medium sized blue fish in a large red pond. You attack immigrants, LGBTQ, low income folks or the earth, you attack me.

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.

Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.

The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.

Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M

See the problem?

So, if drug running is now a capital offense that was carried out in Venezuelan strike, that means raping a child with Epstein is a capital offense too, amirite.

A sea turtle surfacing by a MASSIVE school of rays near Clearwater, Florida a couple days ago. Another post into the BluSky void. Maybe 2 or 3 people will see this one and my time won't have been wasted. I'll keep trying a little longer. #nature #animals #amazing #wildlife #awesome #ocean

ABC News is still calling RFK Jr. a “vaccine skeptic.” The dude was one of the most prominent anti-vaccine activists for decades. There’s video of him in 2023 saying that there’s no vaccine which is safe and effective. You can call him an anti-vaccine activist!

Look at this graph.

The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened.

This is why we must build back union power.

My dream is for it to happen like it does to vampires.

When the leader kicks the bucket, the rest of them burst into flames.

This #DerbyDay, remember: IMMIGRANTS MAKE DERBY RUN. According to the Courier-Journal, “nearly 78% of backside workers, who work intimately with the thoroughbred racehorses daily, are immigrants.”

This is unusual trading by a politician.

Marjorie Taylor Greene bought Palantir, $PLTR, on April 8th.

On April 17th, Palantir, $PLTR, was awarded a government contract with ICE to develop ImmigrationOs.

She sits on the Committee of Homeland Security

Palantir is up nearly 50% since.

We’ve gotten used to leaders treating the press gallery like a stage. Carney didn’t perform - he briefed the country. Clear next steps. Policy substance. Actual timelines. Grown-up governance. Until other parties end the reality shows they are doomed to failure. Time and Time again. #cdnpoli

United Airlines is canceling round trip flights from Newark due to short staffing of air traffic controllers following a chain of equipment outages.

Turns out removing DEI was a massive devastating fuck up. I miss Secretary Pete Buttigieg.
