I like to build stuff and talk about politics

My boomer neighbor bought his house in 1991 for $92,000.

He never refinanced.
He simply paid it off.
Today, his property taxes are about $2,100 a year because he’s owned it for decades.

The exact same house next door just sold for $965,000.

The 31 year old who bought it now pays roughly $10,800 a year in property taxes and nearly $5,000 a month on the mortgage.

Same street.
Same house.
Completely different reality.

We didn’t just price an entire generation out of homeownership.

We priced them out of the future.

Thomas Massie tried to stop this but a bunch of boomers got tricked by AI so now we have to live in 1984

Trump announced a subscription service: If you pay HIM 100K per month, you can have access to Federal policies ahead of being implemented, so you can do insider trading. Just when is this shit going to be stopped? How many crimes can any one person commit before it's enough?

The U.S. has been significantly weakened by the war with Iran.

This administration depleted our missile defenses, drained our oil reserves, sacrificed our men & women, inflated the price of consumer goods, increased our debt, and neglected our domestic needs…

all for Israel.

Lying about Mitch McConnell's death to avoid a special election is election fraud - and so many Americans seem ok with that. In any other country there would be consequences.
Americans, what kind of spell are you under? What happened to you?

WOAH 🚨 Democrat Costa Mesa, California Mayor John Stephens says he has never seen an issue where “virtually 100% of the people gave the same position on it” for wanting Flock cameras cancelled

Right after saying this, he voted to keep the Flock camera contract

INSANE

“I don't think that I've ever in 10 years had an item that's come before us where virtually 100% of the people gave the same position on it, and including people that are on email. — Yeah, I'm concerned about the people that came up and said sincerely that the flock is impacting their trust in the police department”

Right after this he voted to keep the Flock cameras

These people do not work for the American people

This is how far gone our Government is

the party establishment has made their decision. they do not want change. they do not want fighters. the people of michigan will now make their decision. do you want corporate stooges pushing endless war, or do you want medicare for all? do you want to stop maga, or cooperate?

PlayStation Network is down again for millions of users, and people can’t play their license-purchased games.

Players around the world are reporting they can’t sign in, play online, access the PlayStation Store, or use other PSN features.

This is the future PlayStation is pushing: once servers are down or have problems, all your games will be useless.

may they all follow Lindsay Graham into hell

A special election should immediately be triggered if an elected official switches parties.

It’s effectively fraud. You pulled a bait-and-switch on your voters and betrayed them.

You should not be able to go rogue as an elected official and not face consequences for years.

[Caitlin Johnstone @caitoz]

Oh fuck you. FUCK you. You don't get to do this now. You don't get to turn around and go "Oopsie poopsie, we made a mistake!" This was YOUR genocide, motherfuckers. YOURS. You chose it. You own it. Forever. The stench of the rotting corpses in Gaza will follow you for all time.

[pagliacci the hated 🌝 @Slatzism]

shoot me but I don’t think 55+ communities should exist.

55+ buildings, fine. nursing/retirement homes, sure. but boomers have cordoned off entire gated villages on some of the best real estate in the world where they just trade houses with each other at insane discounts.

I’ve seen 2 bed-2 bath waterfront homes for under $100,000. 2% financing. $5000 down payments. And you’re not allowed to have any of it because you’re not old.

Boomers created these spaces to escape the consequences of the world they helped create. We are left to fight for their hyperinflated scraps on the outside while they live in curated microcosms of the 1980s.

I’m not saying these communities HOA’s can’t be extremely selective about who they let in, but I don’t think a young professional with good references should be shut out simply because of their age.

Seize the 55+ neighborhoods.

If you needed more proof that this IS NOT GOING AWAY, here you go.

Sony tried to pay off media outlets to make it look like the outrage was dying down.

It didn’t work.

They have to answer to investors on September 30th.

Hopefully the CEO and execs get axed.

Keep fighting!

[Chase Mitchell @ChaseMit]

They weren’t — you guys made them prominent by never shutting the fuck up about them

Breathing in hefty lungfuls of smoke as I get explosive diarrhea from salad, the sky turns apocalyptic orange while oil companies drill in protected lands, screwworms are eating cattle alive and the president just paid $6 million for rape. And I’m also able to bet on all of it!

I'm sorry. Are we a fucking monarchy? Since WHEN do ELECTED seats go to next of kin in America???
