The U.S. spends more than $400 BILLION annually on prescription drugs.
The Pentagon budget is quickly approaching $1 TRILLION.
Taxpayers hand over $20 BILLION in oil and gas subsidies every year.
But sure, let's ignore the real problems & focus on getting rid of the penny.

we can have a vibrant community of trans people or we can have Singal and his followers
maybe that’s not a choice you want to make as a platform, but if you don’t make it the trans people will make it for you by leaving

Yes person on the internet Syrians are aware that everything isn’t perfect and that there are challenges ahead. I think they didn’t need you to tell them that given that it’s been 5 decades of tyranny and no country ever emerged from tyranny without challenges ahead.

I'm once again asking for a show where a librarian, a bookseller, and a carpenter travel around helping people manage their out-of-control book collections. Discuss their sentimental value, their rarity, their histories, then build amazing book nooks and shelves and little libraries to organize them

DAMASCUS:
1000s of prisoners have been freed from Sednaya prison, now flooding the streets, an monumental moment.
For many, the frantic search begins, desperate to know if their loved ones are among the living or the lost.
Either way, the "human slaughterhouse" is no more.

Octavia Butler being a time traveler or seer, will forever be a hill I'm willing to die on, because there's just no way. Parable of The Sower was published in 1993. Look at this date. #BlackBookSky #BookSky

I am so glad that Bluesky has taken off and evolved to the point where it is as useful and vibrant as Twitter was at its best. For a while, Bluesky didn't have the features I needed as a journalist, and it didn't have the same audience. Now it has both. It's nice to feel optimistic about this place!

I hope that the people who are usually not politically engaged but worked really hard to get Harris elected wake up soon and realize that they are not the only ones who are tired of a struggle that is full of defeat & in fact they could learn about surviving from the leftists they mark as enemies
