"They hate our freedoms: our freedom of religion, our freedom of speech, our freedom to vote and assemble and disagree with each other.”

@redenigma In my country, the far-right party which is now in power (holy sh*t!) is trying to rewrite the constitution and to do HISTORICAL REVISIONISM for gaslighting the less educated ppl and mantaining/increasing their fuc***g distinction and privileges. This drives me mad 😡

Need to talk about my dumb ass MAGAt SIL. I'm of two minds.

She DID show up and help out while my wife was undergoing surgery and recovery at home. Yes, she ate us out of house and home, but she showed up.

OTOH, she just went to see the MAGAt movie "Sound of Freedom", and she's badgering my wife to donate money to a "go fund me" she's set up for the guy that made the movie. The woman is a lunatic.

My wife feels uncomfortable even talking to her now.

I stopped for gas at a new place today--dire need prompted the mini-adventure.

The pump had a screen that activated with the nozzle--rather than trying to sell me something, or giving me infotainment, it showed a series of short videos of people in loving encounters with their pets.

Just a few minutes of love and happiness.

We need more of this in the world.💛

@TheNewsOwl The part about JOHN LENNON doing the nazi salute and not be understood by everyone made me belly laughing 😂

“As some, like Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino, claim that the one Twitter component that can't be copied is its community, some analysts have raised their price targets for Meta.”

It certainly has a large number of Foreign Paid Actors — I’m not sure you can call that a “community”. Worse, I do think she needs to look up the definition of the word “community” — I don’t think it means what she thinks it means.

“Even with the success of the social media giant's latest release, the company's launch day was riddled with drama as Elon Musk's Twitter filed a cease-and-desist letter against Meta, claiming the company poached former Twitter employees in order to create a Twitter ‘copycat.’”

Twitter is claiming people they FIRED were somehow poached? I was unaware slavery was still a thing (tho Elon may still think it is).

It is the fact that the lag between surface air temperature and the total mass ocean heat index runs about 20 to 30 years. As far as heat the ocean is acting like it's 1995. It is just now beginning to warm up. If a miracle happened and we put zero carbon dioxide into the atmosphere tomorrow, and form then on, it would take 20 years for the ocean to notice. For the next 20 years the total mass ocean heat index would continue to rise rapidly.

Republicans against Trump
@RpsAgainstTrump

If you tweet today that you "Stand with Trump," you tell the world that:

-You stand for lawlessness
-You stand with a man who has jeopardized our national security
-You stand with a man who has waged war against law enforcement
-You stand with a man who always puts his own personal interests before those of the country
