Community center vibes for life.

Love my community center. #thatswhatshesaid

Not to like toot my own horn but *every time* I bring up tariffs on the radio I define them: "tariffs are taxes American businesses pay to import goods from abroad." Given all the lies and the fact that many Americans didn't take international economics 101, I encourage others to do this as well.

I'm still seeing comments saying, "I don't need the NWS! My weather app is better!" Folks don't understand that that cool app is just a parasite that feeds almost entirely off NWS data. The ignorance is stunning.

Good morning from my sister’s place in southern Indiana. Upon landing at Muhammad Ali International airport yesterday, the first thing I noticed was a prominent display for Black pioneers in aviation. The second thing was RESIST spray painted on a billboard with Ali’s shadow. #resist #blackhistory

NEW: “Kennedy paused a multimillion dollar project to create a new Covid-19 vaccine in pill form on Tuesday, and the Food and Drug Administration canceled an advisory committee meeting on updating next season’s flu vaccine.” newrepublic.com/post/192059/...

More necessary reporting done by The AP. www.texastribune.org/2025/02/26/t...

We should not even be experiencing this outbreak of measles let alone a child's death. This may go like what RFK Jr. accomplished in Samoa in 2019. We don't digest history & folks like RFK Jr don't get consequences. Kennedy's culpability SHOULD HAVE BEEN PART OF THIS HISTORY we know. #DemVoice1

Nearly 40% of Elon Musk's DOGE cuts not expected to save any money - Newsweek

Excellent reporting and graphics by NY Times illustrating the immediate effect of Trump’s halting U.S.A.I.D. The entire article by Jeffrey Gettlema lays out how intricate these programs are to America’s global, safety and role as a humane nation.

“parents in Kenya whose children are believed to have tuberculosis cannot get them tested. There is no clean drinking water in camps in Nigeria or Bangladesh for people who fled civil conflict. A therapeutic food program cannot treat acutely malnourished children in South Sudan.”

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

I love Pete!!! 🫶🏼

Go anti-woke, go broke it's gotta be.

Eat the oligarchy.

I wrote about how RFK Jr. is targeting SSRIs in his first 100 days plan, and his history of spreading disinformation about antidepressants. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

LISTEN to Jasmine Crockett. She is spot on. "We have a thug in charge of the United States. And if we don't wake up, we may not have a United States."

Damnit, Sandler. I got the emotional bends watching this. #snl50

WASH POST: “Musk’s DOGE is seeking access to a heavily-guarded IRS system that includes detailed financial info about every taxpayer, business and nonprofit in 🇺🇸 — sparking alarm within the tax agency.” Alarmed yet? www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

"A democracy becomes an oligarchy when the rich figure out how to pervert the laws for themselves...this is plain even to a blind man." - Plato, Republic - approximately 350 BC

Alright! All the people who don’t do Valentine’s Day because it’s an overblown commercial holiday designed to part chumps from their cash and you can show your partner how much you appreciate them any other day of the year, it’s your turn … startiiiing…. now!

This is fascism.

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

This is probably the most accurate take.

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

KY GOV. BESHEAR: “If they eliminated the Department of Education and its funding, that’s half a billion dollars in meals for kids that otherwise might go hungry.”

I got on here so I wouldn’t have to see all the performing — like doing PT with the troops. Can we not just keep reposting crap from X? It’s only giving them the audience they crave. This is not an ostrich move. I know how awful it all is. I don’t need a daily press release of it. Let’s 86 X posts

PLEASE SHARE.
