Sharing is Great
Sharing is Good
THIS IS A PLEA FOR HELP.
Can you please share a dollop of currency with us today? We could really use it to keep us going in the new reality. FIXED INCOME ENSURES THAT WE ARE BROKE BY MID MONTH. Thanks for your assistance.
Please 😔

Just back from chemo unit - first denosumab injection.

Most of the staff were ‘non white’ ~ they might not even have had A level English! Shock, horror!
But they did a superb job.

We need to talk about how social media algorithms push moms down a slippery slope of distrust.

From "Are my kids getting enough support in school?" To "Maybe I should homeschool." To "Maybe modern medicine is bad."

I've seen this first-hand in research I'm doing on parenting apps. 1/🧵

Only WE can prevent our Democracy descending into outright indecency.

STAND UP! STAND TALL!
YELL AT THE TOP OF YOUR LUNGS, "WE ARE MAD AS HELL AND WE ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS SHIT ANYMORE!!!"

In three days, we stand up together. In three days, we take back what we are losing.

OpenAI’s strategy is very clear, it’s trying to get people - especially young people - so reliant on its products intellectually & emotionally (& now sexually!) that going without them becomes unthinkable. And they need signs of that strategy working to keep the funding flowing in

Hey guys I went to the Albuquerque balloon fiesta this weekend

Three hot air balloons inflated on the ground glowing from the inside against the night sky. One has a diagonal checkerboard pattern in black, white, yellow, and purple; one has a chevron pattern in flame colors; and one has a checkerboard pattern in magenta and charcoal.

A big cloudy sky just before sunrise, with a crowd of people and a row of tents and kiosks lit up in the near distance and mountains in the horizon. A partially inflated orange and yellow hot air balloon is off to the side.

Several colorful hot air balloons inflated on the ground, near and far all over the place.

A whole bunch of colorful hot air balloons in various states of inflation blanketing the horizon.

I believe the south side Chicago building was “full of Tren de Aragua gang members” about as much as I believe the Venezuelan boats are filled with “narcoterrotists”.

The regime will say anything to justify unreasonable, and even lethal, force.

Jeanne just said that Gavin Newsome can, at times, be a "Little Dick" when he's trolling trump.
Then she laughed 🤣😂 hard and said she guessed that trump was a little dick 24/7/365
