What a rough time to be educated, empathetic, and intelligent.

[Books Behind Borders @MHTruthUltra]

The United States is just a giant Ponzi scheme run by sociopaths.

Everything we're doing is completely unsustainable.

I want my children and their children to inherit national parks and polar bears, not data centres and dry riverbeds.

Just days after scientists found that bee venom can kill cancer cells, the Trump administration is set to close the nation’s primary bee research laboratory.

The United States has no universal healthcare, but we DO have 49 private insurance billionaires.

[Fuck You I Quit @fuckyouiquit]

How this isn’t an immediate impeach and remove from office situation blows my mind. There isn’t a word invented in the English language for this level of pure corruption. This country is fucking cooked.

[Canada Hates Trump @AntiTrumpCanada]

If you live in a civilized country, like I do, your taxpayer dollars are used for things like schools, hospitals/healthcare & infrastructure.

I’d be fucking furious if my tax dollars made these insurrectionist thugs rich. I mean… holy fucking shit, what even is this timeline?

[Warren Gunnels @GunnelsWarren]

Can't stop thinking about Elon Musk, the wealthiest man alive worth $828 billion, spending $290 million to elect Trump, becoming $563 billion richer since Trump was elected and ending humanitarian aid that will lead to the deaths of 4.5 million of the poorest kids on the planet.

[Canada Hates Trump @AntiTrumpCanada]

When he dies, and it can’t happen soon enough, they’re probably gonna tell us a to “be respectful.” NOT A FUCKING CHANCE. I’m gonna be as respectful as he was towards Robert Mueller, Paul Pelosi & Rob Reiner, just to name a few. Fuck that piece of shit.

[Priya Satia @PriyaSatia]

Instead of worrying that humanities degrees don’t prepare students for jobs in today’s world [product managers finance consultants startups], we should worry that we’ve created a world with such little value for literature, art, philosophy—anything that expresses the human soul

Search is full of ads and wrong answers. Every other email is an ad. Prime Video charges you and shows ads. Paramount? Ads. Peacock? YouTube? Hulu? Ads followed by more ads. Netflix full of ads. Meta and X, every other thing is an ad. Pinterest is nothing but ads. AI is in everything. AI finishes sentences incorrectly and won’t stop. AI reads your email and search history to target you with more ads. Every time you open an app or visit a site there’s an update making it worse. In a hurry? First, click here to agree to terms you don’t have time to read and must accept. You need an account to do that. Change your temporary password. Enter your 2FA code. Check your email and enter that code. Now use a passkey. Your password is too simple to remember. Change it. No, not like that. Now log on. Enter your 2FA code.

We’ve got to update your laptop and will slow down everything you do until you agree to update. But first, click here to agree. Update installed — your laptop’s broken now. It doesn’t matter, since your boss just replaced you with AI. Go to your phone to complain on social media. Wait, your phone needs an update so we can add more AI. Click here. Oh sorry, your phone can’t handle this update. Now it’s useless. Go get the newest phone. Here’s a text from a friend, an email, a voice mail they left three days ago but you didn’t see until now because of sync problems with the cloud. It’s their GoFundMe. Their MLM. Their Patreon. Never mind, you didn’t respond to their text within 9 minutes and now you’re no longer friends. They blocked you. Make new friends. Download this app to find people in your area. In your neighborhood. On your street. Two doors down from you. Do you know this person yet, we think you’d get along. You need an account to use this app. That username is taken. Enter a password. Not that one, you used it on another site. You need to be connected to WiFi to download the app. Allow the app to connect to other devices on your network. Allow the app to access your contacts, know your precise location, store your credit card details. Oops, sorry, we got hacked now all that info is available on the web. There’s a class action suit. You can join. It’ll take a decade to get your $3.73 share of the ten billion settlement. We’ll send it via PayPal or deposit it to your bank, just tell us those details. Oh no, another hack. That info is circulating now, too. Here’s a spam call, a spam email, a spam text. Why are you angry? Why are you talking about getting rid of your phone? Why don’t you like AI, it lets us make all of this easier? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? This is progress. You’ll be left behind. Do you want to be left behind? Do you???

The fact we are going to have our first trillionaire before everyone has access to clean drinking water is proof our current system is not for the greater good but for the greedy.

[Anonymous @YourAnonCentral]

The US needs a new constitution and a complete overhaul of the Supreme Court, Executive, and Judicial branches. The Legislative branch needs to be restructured to avoid corporate & high-wealth lobbying/corruption, and the methods/process of representation needs a new framework.

A Kennedy le reventaron la cabeza a tropecientos metros y en movimiento dentro de un coche, pero, por lo que sea, a un orondo octogenario con menos movilidad que un gato de escayola no hay manera de acertarle.

[𐌁𐌉Ᏽ 𐌕𐌉𐌌𐌉 @OrevaZSN]

We cannot have sustainable energy because it threatens the oil industry. We cannot have healthcare because it threatens insurance. We cannot have peace because it threatens the weapons industry. Capitalism built a system where doing the right thing is treated like bad business.

Anytime I see a story about a big game hunter getting trampled or mauled to death by animals it brings a huge smile to my face
