Biden: Putting his name on the Kennedy Center. Building an arch in his own honor. Even hiring his own pool guy to fix the reflecting pool.

Whoa. What a loser.

We need to bring back intellectual elitism. Sorry, but a virologist will always know more about vaccines than a yoga mommy blogger with a ChatGPT Plus subscription.

Hi. Nelsonmom here! I popped into the @PetSmart in Victoria, TX (store #1449) on a whim and found this: water so putrid you can’t even see the bettas through the cloud of their own waste. One was floating at the top of their cup, on the edge of death.

Do you know how many DAYS of neglect it takes for water to get like this? In cups this small, water changes should happen once a day, at a minimum.

Every time a fish breathes out, they produce ammonia into this closed system. When they breathe it back in, it burns their gills. It *hurts*. It causes psychological stress and organ damage.

Every. Single. Breath.

Treating fish like this at the start of their journey sets them up for shorter lives, weaker immune systems, and greater susceptibility to illness, even if they’re lucky enough to get a perfect owner and setup (and many of them will not get the perfect owner and setup).

I asked an employee in the fish department when they’re going to chance the bettas’ water — that they’re “rotting in their own waste” — and I received the most disinterested, uncaring “soon” of all time.

Meanwhile there was a cart of freshly-unboxed bettas in their medicated, Methylene blue water nearby. The latest recruits in a chain of corporate cruelty that sees living animals as disposable products.

Betta fish are the most delightful, wonderful creatures with unique personalities. It sickens me to my CORE to see a dozen+ little lives as valuable as my late Apollo’s. He is a betta (from a breeder, not a big box store) that I loved so much, I still cry about him FOUR years after his death.

I know retail associates are underpaid and overworked. But if you stock LIVING, FEELING creatures as products in your stores, your first priority should be their welfare. If you can’t do that, you should not sell animals. Period.

Like, give me a bottle of water conditioner and 30 fucking minutes and I’ll change the water for free myself. Zero excuse for this.

Nelson fans and animal lovers, please let @PetSmart know how you feel about this.

@food_porn @NipponView I’d try the ice cream rolls themselves but not with all those toppings

They will NOT make a billionaire contribute to the basic needs of the community BUT they will make the whole community bear the electrical, water, and often building costs of a data center owned by a billionaire.

Let me be really clear about what just happened.

The head of the U.S. Postal Service sat in front of the United States Senate and said the quiet part loud: no voter list, no mail ballots. Full stop.

You don’t get to look away from this one.

This is a proposed rule. It’s being fought in court. But the fact that it was said — that a federal official openly threatened to withhold your ballot — that matters.

Your vote is yours. Not the administration’s. Not USPS’s. Yours.

Stay informed. Stay loud.

@WajahatAli People are fed up with Dems who don’t even try to do something to check this government

[Debra Latimore @dlatimor]

@sandibachom @MeerkatsRMammal Trump hates the US government and set out to destroy it while stripping away as much $$& as possible for him, family and friends. We’ll be left with a hollow shell when he’s gone. And any Dem elected after this s**t show better pledge to erase his name and imprison his cabal

[James Tate @JamesTate121]

Picking up floating litter is a crime. Arranging seashells is a threat. Throwing a sandwich is a weapon. A rainbow painted on a sidewalk or flag can cause a meltdown. MAGAs are the biggest snowflakes on planet earth.

I genuinely don't understand why we're being asked to buy a book with important information about Trump when that information could have already been reported in the newspaper employing the two journalists who wrote said book.
