one thing that i guess is kind of implied about home ownership but should really be spelled out directly in specific detail is that sometimes you may find a ceiling light full of liquid and it becomes your job to solve That Mystery

My friend told me that her 14 year old son started doing laundry on Sundays for some of his elderly neighbors. He doesn't charge for the labor. And now he is the most popular person in the building and has non stop pies, cookies, and cake. The 14 year old should be our model of modern masculinity.

Tiny criminal, photographed this morning.

She jumped in the plant and promptly got digging zoomies.

A very small kitten, tabby and white, shouting while I hold her up in the air with one hand. If you look closely you can see that both she, and my hand, are covered in dirt. The plant in question is blurry in the background.

Today my teen took the PSAT. After chatting with another student about their experience my teen suggested that perhaps they might be eligible for accomodations. The student replied "No. I am not getting diagnosed with anything. I don't want to end up on a list."

The first two are grassroots projects and the other two are more established organizations.

Hey Siri: What tends to happen historically when a critical mass of the populace cannot afford to feed themselves?

People are using GoFundMe for groceries.

GoFundMe has 250k pages for medical bills and 40k for tuition.

Americans are fundraising for basic necessities, while the top 1% increased their wealth to $52 trillion.

This is what a rigged system designed by the wealthy looks like.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

The thing that makes Star Trek utopian isn’t the end of scarcity or the harmony between all peoples it’s also that the guy on the ship who gets laid the most plays the trombone at work and periodically does community theater

Three high schoolers founded a book club that reads some of the country's most frequently banned books after a state law removing books with sexual content was signed in 2023. Two years later, many of the books have been reshelved and parts of the law can't be enforced.

When books were being pulled from Iowa classrooms, these teens started an after-school club to read them

Made a quick change to what’s on my office door.

A piece of paper posted on a wooden office door, surrounded by other colorful posters and papers. It says:

I am an AI hater.
This is considered rude, but I do not care, because I am a hater.
I will not be polite.
The machine is disgusting and we should break it.

During Thanksgiving and holidays, people want to do food drives where they collect canned goods etc... and I really would love to offer that food banks need MONEY so if you can collect and donate MONEY please do that. They can then use those funds to purchase what's needed AT DISCOUNTS.
