Last night, I watched some hateful weirdos try to hijack a very long thread of Bluesky people having a positive discussion about President Obama. Four or five different haters posted. Nobody liked their posts, nobody even acknowledged them at all. Like they were invisible. I blocked them, quietly.
LinuxrebelMeta caught paying Nazi groups to post on Facebook. The theory being that their hate would enrage humans, enough to increase engagement on their site. Thereby increasing ad revenue. Sounds like somebody wants a new jet airplane. futurism.com/artificial-i...
Exactly how Trump needs to be spoken to. "When asked about Trump's 'full of s--t' comments, Abdul El-Sayed told a reporter, 'At least I don’t let mine go in the middle of the Oval Office,' before adding that he hopes to be 'a gift to the state of Michigan.'” www.irishstar.com/news/politic...

If you couldn’t make it in the NBA, you will be destroyed by the women you fucking misogynist fuckhead!
(((Alternate Snacks)))Royce White had an abysmal record with the NBA and apparently gets really mad if you bring it up. The WNBA should just say he’s not good enough to join the league. That should shut him down pretty quick.

Chris⚖️Justice🧵 Thread: "We don't need the votes!" MANY times Trump said he did not need votes in 2024 to win the election. And 'vote counters' are what mattered (with lowest polls in history)
keeping with the tradition of it always being some mediocre bum whose athletic career basically doesn't exist, reminder that Royce White and you have scored the same number of points in the NBA
Aaron RuparRoyce White on Fox News: "I'm just having a blast in my feminine area. I never thought I was a woman. I've always trusted science and thought I was a man, but after further review, a strong look at my personal preferences, it would appear I am indeed sometimes identifying as a transgender woman"
MAHA gaslighting 😡 Jay was asked about the terror attack on CDC. The man who shot up the CDC said he wanted to show his opposition to COVID vaccines. RFK Jr had called these “the deadliest vaccines in history,” & said CDC was a “cesspit of corruption.” Asked about the attack, Jay blames….Biden 🤯

Disney is laying off hundreds of people at its wildly successful Pixar Studios. But Disney also plans to spend $8 billion this year to buy back its own stock. Corporations don’t care about workers, they just focus on making executives richer.

Wow -- Ken Paxton and his team abruptly shut down a news conference and bail after journalists try to ask him about his various scandals
The economic data coming out of the Trump admin is so bad that it makes you wonder just how bad the numbers are that we aren’t seeing. I have a hard time believing the guy who said “just stop testing” so the COVID numbers would disappear is suddenly committed to honesty
For 17 years, Washington has failed to raise the federal minimum wage while the cost of housing, groceries, childcare and healthcare has soared. Today, $7.25 an hour is officially a poverty wage. No full-time workers should be left in poverty. fortune.com/2026/07/20/m...
The minimum wage is now the lowest it’s been in 70 years—making the federal wage floor ‘officially a poverty wage,’ report finds | Fortune“We are currently in the longest period of inaction on the federal minimum wage since its inception in 1938,” economist Sylvia Allegretto wrote in a recent report.fortune.com
Hegseth recently told Congress that the Iran war has cost the US government an estimated $37.5 billion to date. But that isn’t anywhere near a final number. It’s more like a down payment—one that all of us are making.

Foreclosures increased 21% in the first half of this year. Student loan defaults are at a record high. Total household debt is also at a record high of $18.8 trillion. Meanwhile, corporate profits are the highest they’ve ever been. “New Golden Age” for whom?
I support Zohran in demonstrating to the United States the appropriate treatment of all citizens.
You mean the oil money you promised would help the people of Venezuela? Because you have taken in an estimated $13 BILLION, and nobody seems able to tell us where the heck it went.
Aaron RuparTrump: "We're taking a lot of oil from Venezuela -- billions and billions of barrels of oil. To the victor belong the spoils."
Congressional Republicans are worse than profiles in cowardice. They’ve nearly become a criminal enterprise, actively colluding with the neofascist in the Oval Office.
