Area arsonist complains he gets no credit for robbing bank to fund firefighting efforts….
Leavitt: "The president tapped into tariff revenue to keep WIC money going out the door. He found a creative solution to keep the troops paid. And rather than congratulate him for doing that, this unprecedented action to get our troops paid, Dems want to sue him for it. They're saying it's illegal."

Julius Caesar was the first Roman to put his own living face on coins, weeks before his death. It is one of the deepest cultural signifiers of something autocracies do and republics do not.

“Render unto Caesar.” A practice so notoriously arrogant Jesus himself dunked on it with snarky wordplay.

Tax the Rich.
It can be done!

Fed gov might not agree, but every single state legislature has the power to do it.
Massachusetts voters approved a 4% surtax on the ultra-wealthy in 2022.

Since then, the number of millionaires in Massachusetts has jumped by 38.6%.

Wealth taxes don't kill innovation or drive the wealthy away.

NOT taxing the wealthy costs us all.

Magnetic tape is the longest lasting digital storage we've got. It's durable.

Hard drives? Solid state? Both dead within 20 years, and you're lucky if they last half that long. CD-R? Maybe 25 years.

Magnetic tape? The good stuff? Stored correctly, 50 years or more.

Now that Trump has ousted Brown, and the heads of the Navy and Coast Guard, the remaining top military leaders are all white and male, particularly striking given that minorities make up nearly 40 percent of the military and women constitute fully a fifth.

Libraries pay for ebooks and (controversially) usually have to pay again if they want to keep them after a set number of check-outs, so authors do get paid by libraries. Do either, if you’re not pirating, the author is getting paid something.
Any idea whether kindle unlimited is better for authors than borrowing library e-books for free? It's not all or nothing, I use my library for books that aren't on kindle unlimited once I go beyond my book budget.

Dorothy B. Porter changed libraries 💜

The Dewey Decimal System used to only have two classifications for Black people: 325 (colonization) & 326 (slavery). Each book by a Black person was put into one of these classifications. A book of poetry? Classified as colonization.

Enter Dorothy B. Porter 🧵

1/ OK, Democratic members of Congress in the US Senate. It’s time for some tough love.

I am aware your pollsters and consultants tell you things like “the American people want us to work together” and “ focus on prescription drug prices in the economy.”
