Being constantly rejected via email for jobs that have hundreds or sometimes even a thousand applicants for over a year now has been….disheartening to say the least.

Man…I thought something was just off with the score for #Andor season 2. Didn’t realize Britell wasn’t the composer this season. (To not spoil shit I almost never look up anything until I’ve finished a show). A re-hash of season 1 music just didn’t really do it for me. Ah, what could’ve been.

This is important. Food banks can bulk buy, and stretch that money further than you can. They also know what they actually need. Money is better!
I saw advice to buy extra cans of food when you’re at the grocery store to donate to the food bank.
I want to politely nudge you to give the money directly to food banks (or to mutual aid groups if you know of any).
We can usually stretch a dollar farther than a dollar’s worth of canned goods

One of the nice things about being on the left is that most of the shit you believe, reducing poverty, climate change, not randomly bombing places, also allows “humanity to persist on this Earth” in ways not involving asking women if they’re ovulating
No, sorry, not becoming a birthrates weirdo doesn't "yield to the far right the notion that humanity ought to persist on this earth." We can just be the party that says you can have whatever number of kids you want, you fucking dumbass

There is a large group of people out here who think the uncommitted movement existed to withhold votes from Kamala because of her stance in Gaza, when the actual point was to WARN HER how many votes she was going to lose and push her to break from Biden on it.
Well, I really wish y’all had WORKED to build up progressive coalitions that you could vote for, rather than just throwing your hands up in the face of fascism until some perfect candidate comes along.

Senator Jim Banks (R) isn’t sorry he told a fired federal worker “he probably deserved it”.
He went on to say the worker was “complaining about losing a left-wing woke job in the federal government that should have never been a job to begin with”.
The job was helping people with disabilities.
