Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

Read this long 🧵.
Let’s talk about why you need to stop acting like domestic abusers w/ your daily & usually bigoted vitriol towards Democrats who are in the MINORITY of the House of Representatives & Senate, don’t control SCOTUS, & aren’t in the executive office. This is a long thread.

Another good thread.
Allow me to explain something to people who probably already know this, but with the hopes that it will penetrates some who don't.

The so-called Big Beautiful Bill hurts EVERYONE but the extremely wealthy.

Interesting thread.
Any time I talk about a wealthy person's outfit, someone in the comments is quick to reply: "They're rich, you think they care?" No one has to care about my opinions or clothes, regardless of net worth.

But let's talk about the connection between wealth and aesthetics 🧵

Good discussion.
Seeing older kids biking down the sidewalk on residential streets is a telltale sign that bike infrastructure isn’t comfortable enough. We need more diverters on our neighborhood bikeways so that all ages and abilities feel safe biking.

Tesla is a good parallel example. We are losing our brand. Why would countries we have alienated invest in our economy?

I agree.
I still think this is the reason Trump is tanking the economy.

It sure seems like that.
Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements
