“I worked at Pfizer for 17 years. We didn’t discover drugs - we discovered markets. If a drug cured asthma in 3 days, we’d kill it. Chronic disease is where the money is. Cures are bad for business.”
— Peter Rost, former Pfizer executive
That’s the business model. Not healing people … keeping them customers for life.
In the 1990s, I was super into both Brad Pitt and Gwyneth Paltrow and watched all their movies and thought they were so cool. Anyways, they’re both fucking assholes now and I wonder if they were terrible people all along or if fame and fortune did that.
Yesterday, I spoke out against data centers and AI layoffs at the Seattle City Council.
Under mass pressure, the City Council passed a one-year moratorium on new hyperscale data centers. This is a victory for working people, but one year is far from enough.
My independent socialist campaign for Congress is the only one in this election fighting for an end to hyperscale data centers, for democratic public ownership of all existing data centers, and for a public-sector living wage jobs guarantee, funded by taxing the rich, to counter the AI-related mass layoffs.

MASSIE: “The Israelis napalmed the deck of the USS Liberty and then machine-gunned the lifeboats. They were intent on leaving no survivors.”
It took 59 years for the USS Liberty survivors to even be recognized by our occupied government. God bless Thomas Massie.
IDF VETERANS TO RECEIVED US BENEFITS?!
A Republican bill to give US veterans benefits to Americans who join the IDF. Members of Congress showing up in IDF uniforms. Israeli flags outside Senate offices. John Kiriakou calls it treason. He's right.
People still don't understand that Massie lost an election in which only registered Republicans in Kentucky could vote and they had to be registered uninterrupted since 2025.
something like this could only ever be said about a white guy who joined the military to murder brown people in a foreign country & subsequently glorified it on social media. lmao
