"You can't get rich without taking more than you give"
So many different reasons to hate this being shared here today. Mine is the question of who 'takes' in society. Very few people actually take more than they give, when we think about all the way folks contribute. And most of them are rich. You can't get rich without taking more than you give
This is so disgusting.

HHS announced today they will consider Head Start a welfare program, not an education program, and will subject it to new citizenship requirements. This goes against decades of legal precedence that all children in America have a right to education. Announcement here. www.hhs.gov/press-room/p...

The Golden Girls S6E1 (1985) makes a joke about the government bailing out banks. Bank bailouts would happen again in 1989, 2008, and 2023.

My main history take is that it’s basically always kind of a shitty time to be alive, if you’re living with even a smidgen of moral fortitude

I'm also not a fan of eggs/breakfast foods and I'll tell you it's freeing to eat anything you want at 7am!
i started here but i don't like eggs that much so i have ended up at "if it's got breakfast adjacent ingredients you can eat it for breakfast" and am aiming for "breakfast is a social construct that only deserves honoring so long as it serves me"
I think one of my best food opinions is: If you put an egg on it, you can eat it for breakfast
