Guys, I am beginning to think that tech bros are kinda dicks who are destroying the fabric of our culture.

I don’t know much, but I do know this:

After Trump destroys our economy, enriches himself, shatters communities, fuels hatred from sea to shining sea, makes healthcare inaccessible, weakens democracy & our standing in the world, with their dying breaths Republicans will gasp, “Joe Biden did this.”

NYT (pre-election): Vance is right, Haitians are straining resources in this Ohio town

NYT (post-election): oh, forcing the Haitians to leave is crashing the economy of this Ohio town
This is the story the NYT ran today about the contributions Haitians have made to Springfield, OH and how much they have revived the local economy and the somewhat dire future that now awaits this town. Now contrast this with how the same paper covered the issue just before elections (posted below)

“I’ve seen some inmates just sit there and cry. Some cry all day."

The conditions abducted migrants are subjected to at Miami Federal Detention Center are so abhorrent men staged a protest by flooding a toilet.

Authorities responded by assaulting them with rubber bullets and flash-bang grenades.

NEW: We obtained DHS data that shows the US knew only 32 of the 238 Venezuelans deported to a prison in El Salvador in March were convicted of US crimes, only 6 of those violent. Trump called them “savages,” “monsters” and "the worst of the worst.” www.propublica.org/article/trum...
Trump Administration Knew Vast Majority of Venezuelans Sent to Salvadoran Prison Had Not Been Convicted of U.S. Crimes
Homeland Security records reveal that officials knew that more than half of the 238 deportees were labeled as having no criminal record in the U.S. and had only violated immigration laws.

This administration is filled with criminally stupid people. The United States is going into decline because the stupid people won.

For the first time in five years, student loan borrowers whose payments are long overdue could face stiff consequences, and that puts a disproportionate number of women at further financial risk.

Please highlight this story.

ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago.

I watched "Sinners" for the second time last night--accompanied my nephew as he was seeing it for the first time.

He didn't love it, and that kinda bums me out, as I think it was the best artistic expression of Black American life I have ever seen onscreen.

I am just a simple girl who doesn’t know much. But, I just finished watching Sinners and I know it is the best movie about the African American experience that has ever been made.

It is a masterpiece that will be studied in film school for decades.

It seems pretty obvious to me that our fascist president wants Canada and Greenland so that the United States and Russia can have this combined land mass linking us together, separated only by the Arctic Ocean.

I despise him and his stupid evil plans with every bone in my body.
