BREAKING: 150 billionaire families have now poured a record-breaking $1.9 BILLION into the 2024 election.
That's $700 million more than 600+ billionaires spent on the 2020 election.
Billionaires shouldn't get to buy our elections.
End Citizens United. Tax billionaires.
OMG this is brilliant. This woman put her tech skills to use to troll VA Gov. Glenn Youngkin over a tipline he put up to report CRT. Her talk will give you life.

Let me help you out and give you my thoughts on DEI
1. Diversity
Good businesses look where others don't, to find the employees that will put your business in the best possible position to succeed.
You may not agree, but I take it as a given that there are people of various races, ethnicities, orientation, etc that are regularly excluded from hiring consideration. By extending our hiring search to include them, we can find people that are more qualified. The loss of DEI-Phobic companies is my gain.
1a. We live in a country with very diverse demographics. In this era where trust of businesses can be hard to come by, people tend to connect more easily to people who are like them. Having a workforce that is diverse and representative of your stakeholders is good for business.
Woooow. The facts do add up: the name, her curly standup hair/kids hair, Lisa’s jazz obsession, Marge’s sisters’ everything! Never even crossed my mind previously
Realizing that Marge Simpson is a white passing creole woman explains much about her depiction on the Simpsons and her sisters as well. I mean her full name is Marjorie Jacqueline Bouvier for fucks sake.
@MargaretOrr Not sure where you’re located in the city. But… I had dug up yard issues in New Orleans, and it was a raccoon. The solution: trap & relocate, at least 10 miles away. It will never stop until it’s gone. Key tip: Marshmallows are great bait. No risk of catching a random creature.
@soledadobrien Thank you. @soledadobrien for saying the obvious out-loud … for these folks, in the media especially. Every time I hear the co-opted term “woke” used… I’m like… ☝🏾this.
Pretty absurd that chatGPT has passed the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE).
Today, it takes 4 years of med school and 2+ years of clinical rotations to pass. It tests ambiguous scenarios & closely-related differential diagnoses

👀 Sneak a peek at the deepest & sharpest infrared image of the early universe ever taken — all in a day’s work for the Webb telescope. (Literally, capturing it took less than a day!) This is Webb’s first image released as we begin to #UnfoldTheUniverse: https://t.co/tlougFWg8B
@kings_gaylem@theadvocatebr You can’t run a country like you manage your household budget/debt… I.e. your daily commute isn’t like running an airport… the money is spent as an investment for long-term priorities, clearly internet accessibility plays a role in future economic growth… think big picture
Chris Smalls, president of @amazonlabor, wants anti-union politicians like @LindseyGrahamSC to remember one thing:
"This is not a left or right thing. This is a working class issue. And the workers at the bottom are the ones who make these corporations go.”
Every year on #MLK birthday, I read Letter From a Birmingham Jail. Instead of memes, actually read the man's magistral work. It's free. It will deeply change you.

No celebration without legislation. On January 17, join me to honor my father and the #MLKLegacy as we call on Congress and the White House to eliminate the Jim Crow filibuster and pass voting rights to protect millions of Black and Brown voters. #DeliverForVotingRights
