Relentless optimism is not naiveté, but an act of active defiance against forces that would grind you down until all that is left is sullen apathy.

@SnazzyLabs @ericmigi @Pebble Based on playing with my 3d printed one (for sizing), I plan to wear it on my ring finger with the button on the bottom to hit with my thumb. With having a real one, do you think that will work?

No wonder Trump Admin tried to keep this hidden from public.

Wikipedia now officially lists the result of the 2026 Iran War as an "Iranian victory" https://t.co/t7EeE2oEcf

For the first time ever in the United States the national price of a pound of Ground beef is now higher than the federal hourly minimum wage.
Thank you MAGA & Trump!

Folks, we got a satellite imagery analysis of the algae bloom in the Reflecting Pool. After the renovation, the pool "had more algae in it than at any recorded point in the month of June for at least five years" https://t.co/UOZpQRd4Pd

Apparently June is scoliosis awareness month as well as pride month, so it's just a great month for people like me who are not straight in any way, shape, or form

What sucks is that life could be so easy. So easy. There are enough resources to end world hunger, homelessness, and poverty. We could slow down and fairly utilize and distribute them. Instead, everyone suffers while 20 men control half the world’s wealth.

What is something you learned in school that you couldn't forget if you tried, and why is it "THE MITOCHONDRIA IS THE POWERHOUSE OF THE CELL"??

Since 2019, the revenue projected from passing a wealth tax on millionaires and billionaires has doubled.

That’s because the ultra-wealthy got even ultra-wealthier in those years.

Workers' wages didn't double.

Billionaire wealth did.

It’s time to tax the rich.

TRUMP: "The word 'affordability' is a fake word made up by the Democrats."

[Merriam-Webster @MerriamWebster]

Olivia Rodrigo’s “stupid song" demonstrates a not-stupid poetic concept.

While 'free' & 'me' rhyme, the highlighted words still sound good together even though they don't ACTUALLY rhyme.

This is an example of 'assonance.'

@SenGillibrand Famous youtuber Evan Edinger made a heartbreaking deep-dive video about how he got addicted to Kratom and how hard it was to get clean. https://t.co/clCqTOg5DO.

[Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand]

This is clear corruption.

Secretary Mullin's only priority should be keeping the American people safe. Instead, he's using his government position to remove warnings from an addictive gas station drug he’s invested in.

BREAKING: SpaceX is now worth more than Amazon.

SpaceX market cap is $2.75 trillion, Amazon's is $2.65 trillion.

Amazon's profits were $78 billion last year. SpaceX lost $5 billion last year.

🚨 MIND-BLOWING HYPOCRISY JUST EXPOSED.
Trump is out here popping champagne over a brand new Iran “deal”…
…centered on Iran’s sacred promise that they will NEVER obtain a nuclear weapon.
Sound familiar?
Because ABC’s Jonathan Karl just dropped the bomb: That exact same promise was in the very first paragraph of Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal.
Let that sink in.
Obama makes the deal → Trump rips it up, slaps on “maximum pressure,” starts a war, costs lives and billions…
…only to crawl back and celebrate the exact same core commitment like it’s some historic genius move.
Same promise. Different body count.
History is laughing. The cycle is complete.
What a time to be alive.

Watching the decline of literacy at the youngest ages feels like watching an iceberg slowly approach the Titanic. What’s happening to middle-grades is also coming for YA and adult books as this demographic ages. The publishing industry itself could collapse.
