This. I do not comprehend how this is workable. Then add in sick days for multiple kids. You can go months without a single, full 5-day week at school.

This was a great read on a loathsome topic. Thanks!!

If anyone could empathize with what educated, compassionate Americans are going through, I would think it would be the English, who experienced a smaller version nine years ago.

Especially the right wing of the SCOTUS?!? They are all very devout Catholics.

Can’t find a single article with this information. Is this just made up disinfo?

Have a close friend in finance who told me I have to stop spouting conspiracy theories about Elon when I’m just quoting milquetoast headlines. They literally said we’ve been here before with republicans and I had to remind them where the Cheneys et al were all begging us to vote blue. They forgot…

I’ve been saying what idiot put Christmas in December? Why not February 25 to get us all the way through the dark months

*I know it won’t go anywhere. THAT’S NOT THE POINT.

Hi Mindy, tbh no one has a blueprint here so if you have an idea you might as well give it a try and report back I think people are giving some good suggestions 🙂

Ma’am if you wouldn’t mind, reread the post you responded to for tone. You may notice it’s contrasting two points in an absurd way, indicating it’s sarcastic and making fun of this point of view.

It’s devastating how badly the Dems failed to meet this moment. Just utterly pathetic. I have spooky remember listening to Gaslit Nation in dismay in 2021 predicting all of this based on Dems just wishing the problem away

We read and understand just fine. Bernie is absolutely incapable of a full throated denunciation of facism. He saves that kind of clarity for dancing on the grave of democracy for told ya so brownie points from his precious white man imaginary “working class”

Why bother? We all saw it

That’s a troll just block

I listened to an hour of poetry read by an elderly English man yesterday. I’m sad I’ll probably never see him again

This. The same PBS boomers on here, who no doubt lament how no one reads books anymore, are absolutely tap dancing on the grave of the app that saved small book stores all over the world, got people into reading poetry ffs, and grew the audience of tens of thousands of authors

Suddenly the like/comment buttons lost their color and looked off and you knew it was about to happen. Really a crazy thing to witness in real time. Glad I was there at that moment.
