Only things that get 'throttled' here are assholes. 👊 👍

‪Darth Putin‬ ‪@darthputinkgb.bsky.social‬:

The mental gymnastics these people will perform to avoid having to admit it could all end if I just stopped invading are intense.

They’re all pro 2nd amendment but against using weapons to defend yourself.

‪Jay in Kyiv‬ ‪@jayinkyiv.bsky.social‬:

Long ago, I read Ray Bradbury's "Fahrenheit 451".
One thing that jumps right out:

‪ProPublica‬:

HHS has routinely imposed the "death penalty" on small businesses, barring them from participating in Medicare.

But it has never barred a national Medicare supplier -- even when that company has repeatedly committed fraud.

Some companies, it seems, are too big to ban.

We are in NATO, for now.
WWII and Cold War victories are being pissed away.

Big money goes around the world
Big money give and take
Big money done a power of good
Big money make mistakes
Big money got a heavy hand
Big money take control
Big money got a mean streak
Big money got no soul

Big money goes around the world
Big money underground
Big money got a mighty voice
Big money make no sound
Big money pull a million strings
Big money hold the prize
Big money weave a mighty web
Big money draw the flies
