A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.
And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

I don't think we're going to have a successful Amazon boycott till we break their monopoly on indie books.
They have a clever strategy to build their monopoly, which any functional government would have banned: if you want your indie book listed in Kindle Unlimited, you have to be exclusive. 🧵

The bill last numbered H.R. 9495 would empower the Treasury Secretary to designate any nonprofit the Secretary wishes to kill a “terrorist supporting organization” and revoke the tax-exempt status on which it depends for survival. Unconstitutional but lethal in the harm it would do while in force.

Saw someone based their doctoral dissertation on the use of a patient safety teamwork tool that a co-worker and I had developed at the uni and did not acknowledge our contribution at all. This is from a famous uni where all parties should have known better.

Time for a neurotypical person to put an office chair together - less than 1 hr. Time for an ADHD-er? Two weeks to get out of its box. Two more weeks to gaze at the instructions and say, "Nope". Then a painstaking hour of assembly saying "surely that part can't be necessary?"

A female reporter asks Trump about Epstein. He says, “Quiet, piggy.”
When Khashoggi’s murder is brought up in his meeting with the Saudi Prince who had him killed (according to the CIA), Trump says, “Things happen.”
You have a monster at the helm, America. You are in terrible danger.
