WHO GIVES A DAMN?

It’s a public service, right there in the name. It exists as a public good for all the people in this country. It’s not supposed to turn a profit, you dolts.

Go audit the Pentagon and see what kind of return on investment we’re getting there.

The USPS faces a tight squeeze. With fewer people using the mail, it’s lost more and more money: $9 billion in the 12 months ending in September alone.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.

Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.

Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

Vote in the poll at the bottom of this article: “Would you get rid of Daylight Saving Time?” We would, let’s stick to Standard Time! www.livescience.com/health/sleep...
Would you get rid of daylight saving time?
The clocks in the U.S. will be "falling back" on Sunday, Nov. 2, marking the end of daylight saving time for 2025. If you could decide, would you abandon it forever?

PENNSYLVANIA State Rep Joe McAndrew files HR 349 for permanent Daylight Saving Time. Would put sunrise past 8am for 3 months, to nearly 9am. Tell your PA state reps NO on HR 349—and yes instead on HB 119 for permanent Standard Time! 🔗👇

A former French military base, Vauban is a thriving neighbourhood of 5,500 residents connected to Freiburg town centre by bus and light rail. Built in the late 1990s as a radical experiment in low-car living, it forgoes virtually all on-street parking in favour of active, green, and social spaces. 🧵

We should be on a 13 month calender. Months should be 28 days. The last left over day (or 2 on leap years) should be separate holidays and fall on the winter solstice.

This is inaccurate. There is no known vulnerability with Signal's core tech. The memo was discussing phishing attempts, which Signal has worked to mitigate. And it was hastily reported.

It's important not to spread misinfo that can confuse people into moving away from meaningfully private comms.
In case you missed it: the Pentagon--that's Hegseth--got warned about using Signal a week ago.

Permanent Standard Time—not permanent DST—is the preferred way to end clock change!

Remove #NYC public transit tolls.

Rip out the subway turnstiles.

Remove payment devices from buses.

Focus police on other crimes.

Fund public transit with sales tax and roadway congestion tolls.
