Its going to cost me $514 for my trip to the ER last week; spent 10mins with an ER doc to get a $35 antibiotic prescription.

Insane.

In any other reality this would drive an impeachment hearing. I give it 5 days before we completely forget Kash Patel admitted, OTR, to an FBI purge at the whim of DementiaDon.

I wish i could use a #roku type remote on my #LGtv. I press so many wrong buttons while half the remote is taken up by numbers.

Bro who watches channels, with numbers, on tv?

BREAKING: Trump doesn't remember/believe/understand HE was president on January 6, 2021

This is how unstable, how mentally unbalanced, how much of a dangerous mixture of dishonesty and insanity Trump is:

"Biden's FBI?" By Jan. 6 2021, TRUMP had run the FBI for 1,448 days #25A

New types of cops 😂 would be a funny phrase if we didnt live in an over-policed, carceral, fascist state with like infinite types of cops.

Remember, #allcopsarebad

I think my friend convinced me to start doing a "yoga"/movement skate session at my local.

Like 30 mins of stretching/movement/active warm up.

Mellow skate session.

Maybe another 30 of stretching/movement/exploration.

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.

He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.

Why arent the dems pressing this? Like the republicans did, this line of obviously has effect.

Is it just me, or does it seem the press is actually and completely terrified to report about Donald Trump's physical and mental health the way it would have if anyone else were president?

OhGeez @ohgeez.bsky.social · 1d

Seems like either way they should have done a medical eval. #ACAB

This is murder. These cops need to be charged and fired yesterday. But, they won't.

Denise Dewald, MD @denisedewald.bsky.social · 1d

Horrific. A 50-year old black man had a stroke & was confused from it. Cops didn’t want to “waste time” doing a thorough evaluation for a medical emergency, assumed it was drugs, & simply threw him in jail. He died

A tragic example of the cruelty of structural racism

Starting my morning with The Mars Volta.

Libs, fascists alike want to use POC as ornaments for their causes. Liberals as an invisible, silent monolith backing their policies. Fascists as medals in the Battles of Chicago/Portland/DC

This energy!

If you MUST us AI remember; they lose money on every query. They lose money when you say "thank you" to the AI.

If they can’t convince us that we need AI then those billions of dollars they spent on it will be for nothing.

Don’t use that shit. Let these companies lose that money. They should’ve used it to pay fair wages, instead of giving it to tech bro scammers for shitty, useless “innovation.”

Dear President Obama,
I saw in your statement you said "Israeli families" & "the people of Gaza."
Palestinians have families, too.
This kind of language contributes to dehumanization. Dehumanization is part of what caused so many to stay silent as 20,000 children were killed in this genocide.
I've sat with wonderful Palestinian families from Gaza. They look at their children just like we look at ours - with all the love & hope in the world.
Love,
Ms Rachel

Local cops are not on the side of Democratic politicians or under their actual control. People refuse to understand this too even though we've been making this point for decades.
