It’s been said that everyone should work a service job for a year after high school, and I think that’s true but I think it should be a five-year plan including…

- living in another country for a year
- caring for the elderly for a year
- teaching for a year
- surviving as an artist for a year
All I’m picturing is someone handing in one of those enormous checks that you give to charity and whispering, “it’s a big check because it’s a lot of money,” knowing that will make him think it’s real.
Hell, that’s worse than the “get a job” folks. (And what is one supposed to eat until you finally get a paycheck from that job, the wallpaper?)
On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer

Priscilla Chan reveals the piece of health advice she ignores.⁠

In the full interview, Chan discusses how she plans to cure all diseases by the end of the century, how she’s always been a nerd and why she almost transferred out of Harvard.⁠ 🎥 on.wsj.com/43o4O8S
As someone who voted for John Fetterman, can some of y’all give Graham Platner a little less leeway about all the bullshit coming out about him before you repeat the mistake Pennsylvania did?

Americans want to watch charismatic people solve moderately difficult problems on a weekly basis. That’s it. And a group of fomo execs and techbros who don’t watch TV drove one of the most profitable industries in the US off a cliff rather than accept that.
Look what happenes when a TV show releases every year, with more than 8 episodes a season.

this didn’t happen and if it did it is also impeachable
Trump: "By the way, a friend of mine called us the other day and he said 'I'd like to contribute any shortfall you have because of the Democrat shutdown. I'd like to contribute any shortfall you have with the military.' Today, he sent us a check for $130 million. It's gonna go the military."

1) that's highly illegal. 2) there's no proof the people in those boats are involved in the drug trade 3) in a bunch of cases those boats are not headed for the US 4) it's murder regardless.
Trump: "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead."

“oh so you think the east wing being demolished is worse than-“ it’s a synecdoche, man. a visual metaphor. there’s a reason the aliens in Independence Day don’t aim a huge laser at SNAP benefits

an FBI official says the alleged NBA gambling ring involves the "Toronto Rangers" (not a real team), which doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the quality of their investigation
So is the White House just … not doing Christmas this year? I mean, they just tore down the part of the building where they have it. I don’t see them having it in the private residence or the West Wing. Outside in that area in December? Doubtful.

Some reporter ask them about their Christmas plans.

I will vote for whichever candidate in 2028 will sell tickets to go into whichever parts of the White House he changes and destroy them with sledgehammers.
As soon as I saw him doing that with the east wing, I was pretty sure he was gonna keep going.
He’s just gonna keep going and take down the whole White House, isn’t he
I was maybe 12, so that came later. 😂

one big issue ppl defending this seem to have missed is that *you don't know what else is out there about Platner.*
