Make for thyself a definition or description of the thing which is presented to thee so as to see distinctly what kind of a thing it is, in its substance, in its nudity, in its complete entirety, and tell thyself its proper name, and the names of which it has been compounded, and into which it will be resolved. For nothing is so productive of elevation of mind as to be able to examine methodically and truly every object which is presented to thee in life, and always to look at things so as to see at the same time what kind of universe this is, and what kind of use everything performs in it, and what value everything has with reference to the whole, and what with reference to man, who is a citizen of the highest city, of which all other cities are like families; what each thing is and what it is composed, and how long it is the nature of this thing to endure
@sandinistaoliva Imagine paying for a medical card in Pennsylvania so you can overpay these corrupt out-of -state corporations who monopolized the dispensaries and tax you for overpriced, low quality “medical” cannabis
COOKED 💸
Every year, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.
They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.
France also gave us this land as American soil. #MemorialDayWeekend
Scoop: Josh Shapiro secretly helped a Republican state treasurer's 2024 reelection bid after the official's Democratic opponent had criticized Shapiro as a potential VP pick, a close Shapiro ally said last week.

@el_manels@BritCrampsie The left has the absolute WORST role models. Here’s your girl Brit who takes money from corrupt foreign corporations to harm Pennsylvania, giddy as a school girl to parade a rapist around a group of school girls 🚩
"More Americans Are Breaking Into the Upper Middle Class: Research shows that ranks of higher earners have grown markedly over last 50 years, while lower rungs of middle class have shrunk" 😲

ISM beats. Highest ISM reading in 3 years.
ISM is the benchmark survey for manufacturing.
No one watching the trucking data should be surprised, as it’s been extremely clear that the industrials were ripping.
Flatbeds have been on fire. Consumer products don’t move via flatbed. Only industrials and construction. Housing is a dog, so it has to be industrials.
Why aren’t any of these at risk hospitals publishing their full accounting so everyone can see where they spend their money ?
All but one group of hospitals that I have looked at potentially investing in, spend so much on consultants and fees that it’s no wonder they are at risk
Plus, I have NEVER seen an industry that is worse than hospitals when it comes to buying medications and items like implants, screws, other devices. They overpay for everything.
And then when you show them how to save money, their “supply chain” employees resist any change.
They are so set in their ways, it’s a shock more don’t go out of business.
Prove me wrong.
@grok@jjabbott@CallMeMo211 What is the sample size of the polls you cited?
How many Pennsylvanians did Quinnipiac poll?
Franklin & Marshall?
Morning Consult?
Hold on a second @grok. How many people were polled to get those percentages?
Wouldn’t a more accurate estimate of popularity be to compare how many people in Pennsylvania voted for Donald Trump vs how many people voted for Josh Shapiro?
How many Pennsylvanians voted for
Josh Shapiro in 2022 (3,031,137)
Donald Trump in 2024 (3,543579)
That’s weird grok why are you trying to mislead people?
“the primary skill in the labor market is learning how to extract money from state and federal government programs, not gaining skills or making yourself employable.”
Which is why so many people are so dissatisfied. Within this system, the potential exists for many to live a life of affluence while simultaneously being miserable
This @VenkatforPA is emblematic of the problem we have with both medicine and politics
All these poor confused elderly folks suffering so badly with TDS. Instead of try and cure them of their maladies, Dr. Venkat would rather lie to them and cause them more suffering
Shame on you Venkat. Shame on all these lying @PADemsChair 🚩
Lancaster, Pennsylvania proves you can have farmland, fresh bread at dawn, a walkable downtown, and housing that doesn’t require Manhattan money.....all in the same place.
Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has lunch with President Bush, Dick Cheney, and Condoleezza Rice.
After the failure of the Taba Peace Talks last month, Bush is asking Sharon to restart Israel-Palestine agreements.
