Being mad about people being on SNAP is embarrassing.
We have trillionaires now and you're worried about a single mom buying a candy bar.
Get your shit together.
Eat the rich.
Nobody wants a city on Mars. Nobody wants AI in every app. Nobody wants a robot butler. Nobody wants data centers everywhere. Nobody wants flying cars or humanoid robots. We want clean water, we want bees to survive, and we want a habitable planet.
Yes, a cashier at Walmart, a delivery driver at Amazon, or a waiter at KFC, should be able to afford rent, groceries, and bills with their paycheck alone. That is exactly what jobs are for.
Republicans are in charge because we promised:
to Make America Healthy Again.
to start No New Wars,
to put people above corporations,
to put America above foreign countries,
to release the Epstein files,
to not spy on citizens,
to eliminate fraud,
what the hell happened?!
Never forget that as Elon Musk became a trillionaire today, it is estimated that 750,000 people have died as a result of his cutting of USAID. The majority of those deaths were children.
Imagine waking up tomorrow and every billionaire vanished.
Most people would still go to work.
Food would still be grown.
Roads would still be built.
Hospitals would still operate.
Now imagine every worker vanished.
That's the difference between wealth and value.
Things you could do in the United State for a trillion dollars (instead of have it accumulate to one person):
1. End homelessness
2. End poverty
3. Healthcare for every child
4. Universal free college
5. Universal clean, cheap energy
6. Cure cancer
To everyone so eager to cancel someone for a tattoo they got at age 22, a drunk text, a selfie they took in the middle of a mental health crisis:
Show us your laptop.
Show us your iCloud.
Open your entire digital life to your worst enemy. No context. No filter. No explanation.
You won’t.
You won’t because you know what I know. Any one of us, frozen at our worst moment, photographed in our lowest hour, looks like a monster. Looks like a stranger. Looks like someone who deserves to be cast out.
That is not who we are.
My mom and baby sister were killed in a car accident when I was just a kid. Cancer took my brother Beau, my best friend and my rock. I battled alcoholism. I battled addiction. I chose the coward’s way out more times than I can count.
For years I believed the defining chapters of my life were written by tragedy, loss, and shame.
I no longer believe that.
Pain can shape us. Loss can humble us. Failures can leave scars that never fully fade. But none of them have the authority to define us.
And it sure as hell ain’t the critic that counts.
That authority belongs to us alone-the person in the arena.
Every setback presents a choice. Play the victim, or cut the bullshit and take ownership for who we become next.
Life does not determine our character. It reveals it.
Again and again we are asked the same question. When shit happens, what next?
We are not defined by what happened to us. We are not defined by the worst photo, the worst text, the worst tattoo, the worst night. We are defined by the person we choose to become. And by the courage to choose that person, every single day.
So before you reach for the gavel - show us your laptop.
You won’t.
The whole world saw mine. And I am still here. Still becoming. Still choosing. Still standing.
That is the only definition that matters.
“No one gives a sh*t about housing.”
“If [gas prices] rise, they rise.”
"I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation."
"I love the inflation."
Donald Trump really is a man of the people, isn't he?
I saw $5/gal gas and $5/gal milk today. The federal minimum wage is $7.25. Nearly half our workforce makes under $15 an hour. What in the actual fuck are we doing??
If your bank forced you to legally put a certain amount of your paycheck every payday for 30 years into a savings account for your "retirement," didn't give you interest, then when you were getting ready to retire, said "we're only going to give you 70% of your money back, because we can't afford to pay you the full amount."
Would you accept that?
Vote every Republican out.
Hey media
Not a Platner fan, but why is he a nonstop story and not Ken Paxton's TWENTY indictments by a GOP led-Texas legislature, securities fraud charges and his wife's filing for divorce on "biblical grounds?"
I simply cannot figure out if Trump was seen in public on June 3rd or not. I see interview clips but then read they were pre-recorded. Google’s AI said he had a bill signing but its sources are questionable. What’s the verdict here people? Did we see him yesterday?
@YarrowGrace This ISNT because of illegals. It’s because of REPUBLICANS rolling back inspections, regulations, and agriculture control in favor of profits and making it easy for farmers to cut corners in the name of the almighty dollar. You people are so dense.
A Republican voter in Texas says she and her entire community will vote for whoever stops the data centers from being built in Texas. Regardless of party.
🔴Greg Abbott = pro data center
🔴Ken Paxton = pro data center
🔵 James Talarico = anti data center
🔵 Gina Hinojosa = anti data center
