The corporations that have dominated our lives for the last few decades, like Starbucks, Wal-Mart, Target, and Meta, are NOT permanent. We can turn them into the K-Marts and AOLs of the 2020s AND save money at the same time.

There are a lot of unexpected things I’ve had to do as a parent, but making this sign for a rally is maybe the least expected and most disturbing.

look I’m no messaging expert but it seems like the American people might be interested to know that Donald Trump just gave our social security numbers to a teen called BigBalls
Contrary to some info I've seen, 19-yr-old Doge staffer "BigBalls" Edward Coristine did not delete his X account, it's just renamed and is private.
Wired reported that govt tech workers had to defend their work to the Neuralink intern in an Office Space-esque scene.

The Americans most impacted by a freeze in federal funds? Children. Make no mistake: This has become a war on our kids.

Anyone who ever again suggests that the GOP is the party of the police or the party of law and order should be laughed out of the room. There has never been anything like this before in modern US history: the president pardoning people who we all saw on live TV assaulting police.

So deeply disappointed by the blatant misinformation and racist dog whistles in this recent mayoral primary poll. We have two candidates with more than a decade each of experience in local politics. Surely that's enough to focus on their own records of getting things done for the people of Pgh.

🚨 The Senate is expected to vote tomorrow morning on one of the most dangerous immigration bills in recent history.
The Laken Riley Act wouldn’t protect anyone. What it would do is create chaos that could impact millions.
