Immigrants are carrying this country on their backs while the right screams into the void.

Here’s the Cato Institute report:

Cato Study: Immigrants Reduced Deficits by $14.5 Trillion Since 1994
The best way to balance the budget is to reduce spending—particularly on wealthy retirees—but rather than hinder our efforts to control deficits, immigrants are helping.

Short term memory. Gaslight. DARVO.

I spent the most formative years of my political life reading headlines like this seemingly every week.

This wheel is to the boy squirrel the way that the football is to Charlie Brown and it still makes me laugh every time he tries to use it only to be immediately spun.

Saving because I’m sure I’ll need the expert advice.
The lessons for heavy DIYers to take from this, btw:

If your doctor says your insurance won't approve a newly-released drug you really want to try, don't despair. Ask them if they're willing to do a "peer to peer" if you draft the justification for them to edit to save time.

Americans & Europeans needlessly exposing African babies to preventable diseases just to see if they can find something that would justify their preexisting antivaccine beliefs is not only unscientific and actually anti-science, it is very much reminiscent of colonialist, racist human rights abuses
“It is not clear what the research question is. It seems to be about the safety of the vaccine rather than its effectiveness, but both are already well-established, and to undertake such a study in a population where almost 1/5 of the adult population has a marker of infection seems extremely risky”
US plan for $1.6m hepatitis B vaccine study in Africa called ‘highly unethical’

Oh, my. *Fantastically* awful. I cannot recommend this playlist enough.

Cats, dogs, bagpipes, accordion, Beiber, Swift… you’ve got to listen (cautiously, in small bites).
My gift to you: the worst Christmas playlist, to horrify your friends and relations. Apple Music & Spotify links at shitm.as

On Aug 24, 1869, Ohio Rep. John Bingham, principal framer of the 14th amendment, gave a remarkable speech on “Equal Rights-Impartial Suffrage,” in which he said of those who sought to reject the principal of birthright citizenship, “no greater political atrocity than this can possibly be committed.”

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere.

It means more power for them and less freedom for you.
Netflix's $83 billion takeover of Warner Bros Discovery would mean more corporate consolidation.

Netflix, by far the #1 streamer, would take over HBO Max, the #3 streaming service.

This giant merger could violate antitrust law and hurt consumers.

What was your version of eeny, meeny, miney, moe (counting game for choosing or eliminating someone) when you were younger? The best one I've heard is from Czech, which has several different endings but this is my favourite (image on the left is the original Czech, on the right is rough translation)

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?
