Did Andrew Tate lose a boxing match? Sorry, I only follow authentic masculinity influencers,
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream.

Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads.

Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

He is a smart and energetic dog who is ready for a loving forever home.

He loves to learn new tricks and commands, and will work hard to earn those treats! He's also a total softie who loves belly rubs and snuggles.
Look for him at the Philadelphia

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Wait, holy crap, BLACK RIVER ORCHARD is *two bucks* for your electromagic book reader of choice. A sinister apple called the Ruby Slipper begins to change the people of a small town! Cults! Suburban folk horror! Way too much apple-based information! Cats! Hope you check it out, too. OKAY BYE.
This is still just under five bucks for your favorite digital reading device, and I don't know why, but if I had to guess, it will stop being this price after today. So if you want creepy family dynamics and alternate reality horrors and maybe-haunted-house funtimes, THE BOOK OF ACCIDENTS awaits.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net
