The belly tap is remarkable

[Arnold Schwarzenegger @Schwarzenegger]

I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians.

I also understand that people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor.

My time as Governor taught me to love policy and ignore politics. I’m proud of the work I did to help clean up our air, create jobs, balance the budget, make the biggest infrastructure investment in state history, and take power from the politicians and give it back to the people when it comes to our redistricting process and our primaries in California.

That’s policy. It requires working with the other side, not insulting them to win your next election, and I know it isn’t sexy to most people, but I love it when I can help make people’s lives better with policies, like I still do through my institute at USC, where we fight for clean air and stripping the power from the politicians who rig the system against the people.

Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results. Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime.

It is probably not a surprise that I hate politics more than ever, which, if you are a normal person who isn’t addicted to this crap, you probably understand.

I want to tune out.

But I can’t. Because rejecting the results of an election is as un-American as it gets. To someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows America is the shining city on a hill, calling America is a trash can for the world is so unpatriotic, it makes me furious.

And I will always be an American before I am a Republican.

That’s why, this week, I am voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.

I’m sharing it with all of you because I think there are a lot of you who feel like I do. You don’t recognize our country. And you are right to be furious.

For decades, we’ve talked about the national debt. For decades, we’ve talked about comprehensive immigration reform that secures the border while fixing our broken immigration system. And Washington does nothing.

The problems just keep rolling, and we all keep getting angrier, because the only people that benefit from problems aren’t you, the people. The only people that benefit from this crap are the politicians who prefer having talking points to win elections to the public service that will make Americans’ lives better.

It is a just game to them. But it is life for my fellow Americans. We should be pissed!

But a candidate who won’t respect your vote unless it is for him, a candidate who will send his followers to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke, a candidate who has shown no ability to work to pass any policy besides a tax cut that helped his donors and other rich people like me but helped no one else else, a candidate who thinks Americans who disagree with him are the bigger enemies than China, Russia, or North Korea - that won’t solve our problems.

It will just be four more years of bullshit with no results that makes us angrier and angrier, more divided, and more hateful.

We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that. He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger.

That’s enough reason for me to share my vote with all of you. I want to move forward as a country, and even though I have plenty of disagreements with their platform, I think the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz.

Vote this week. Turn the page and put this junk behind us.

And even if you disagree with me, vote, because that’s what we do as Americans. https://t.co/eHFZ723I4H

The Afghan father aided U.S. soldiers. Now Texas Medicaid won’t pay for his son’s gene therapy

There is a GoFundMe at the bottom. It's infuriating that it's needed, but still.

@texblades @cvleart If it's not drawn directly from the artist's imagination with no reference, it's not art, got it. I'm assuming all of you work solely in non-digital media, if using digital tools is such a sin.

[Sam Regenbogen @spameroo]

@cvleart Is this really what the "community" is doing now? Idk if this used AI or not, but most of the comments in this thread boil down to "the perspective and proportions are wrong, so this is trash". If you're wrong and it's not AI, your commentary is SO cruel and demoralizing.

@USGSVolcanoes I have had the #Kilauea live YouTube stream on nonstop, saw something especially cool this morning. Is this a lava whirlwind? Lavaspout?

The LAPD murdered Keenan Anderson. A beloved high school English teacher and father who FLAGGED THEM DOWN FOR HELP after a car accident. He was a threat to no one. He needed help and it cost him his life. The LAPD must be held accountable for this at all costs. #KeenanAnderson

[Qasim Rashid, Esq. @QasimRashid]

Keenan Anderson—a 31-year-old high school teacher & father—stopped LA police for help after an accident. They instead cuffed him, pinned him, & tased him repeatedly as he begged them to stop.

Keenan died of cardiac arrest from excessive tasing.

His crime—asking police for help.

Please, I pray, don’t let me have to use this on my father’s birthday weekend. #MLKDay

Yesterday, I received the full text of the OGL 1.1 from a reputable source. The updated Open Gaming License is incredibly restrictive, demands community surveillance and, most importantly, renders the previous WotC OGL an unauthorized agreement.

@USGS I saw two scientists approach about an hour ago, haven’t seen them since, now the feed is down. I hope they are ok…

@maiscribbles @nannapai ANNA why would you keep this from us

[Sam Regenbogen @spameroo]

And of course, thank you to @nannapai, @scaperfan, @Spike_Lancer, @dmkellner_ , and most of all @CraftyDruid who stuck with this for half a decade, built this world with me, and drove all the craziest twists and turns. (And Toni but idk if she’s on Twitter!)

@joel_birchtree What if we watched one of those old home videos and realized they were saying “colon three” at the end of every sentence and no one had noticed :3

[Sam Regenbogen @spameroo]

@joel_birchtree Wait it’s still just a kitty cat face right? I know you kids these days like to change the meanings of emojis.
