I follow all things political, good or bad. Dog-lover, cat-lover, even people lover... I think.
"Black Capitalism Day" approaches. Companies raise prices beforehand so they can claim outrageous % discounts. Advertising already going wild.

"[R]acist targeting of [Zohran] Mamdani, like the targeting of [Rashida] Tlaib and [Ilhan] Omar ... is a non-stop and coordinated pattern of incitement from powerful people in Congress. It is paired with very serious attempts to deport the subjects of their vitriol."
Leading up to NYC’s election, politicians launched a barrage of racist claims against Zohran Mamdani. Mainstream media outlets have barely covered it.

@ahjohnson.bsky.social reports on the Islamophobic vitriol, threats of deportation, & virtually no coverage.
Why is Mainstream Media Ignoring Overtly Racist Attacks on Mamdani from Congressional Republicans?
Non-stop Islamophobic vitriol, threats of deportation, and virtually no coverage from CNN, NBC, CBS, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal or The Washington Post.

The fact that a raging homophobic racist bigot like Marjorie Taylor Greene is seeing the writing on the wall with all the pedophilia and going "yeah I'm out" means there's a breaking point that's finally being established

Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract.

Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

Grok, the shitty AI on Twitter, used to call out Musk's lies at some point, but it keeps getting worse. I don't use it but have read what answers to people. Grok lies about immigration, demographics, elections, Holocaust, extremist ideologies, news, protests, polls, statistics, health, climate etc

We have a housing crisis in the US

In 1985, the median income was $23,620, and the median price of a home was $84,300 - 3.6 times the typical income

In 2023, the median price of a home was $428,600 - 5.3 times the median income of $80,061

50-year mortgages are NOT the answer; we need more houses

Unsurprisingly, there were NO charges of any gang members.

As part of the spending deal to end the government shutdown, federal lawmakers approved a provision that would criminalize almost all consumable hemp products nationwide.
Congress bans most hemp-based THC products in shutdown deal
The issue roiled Texas politics earlier this year when Gov. Greg Abbott vetoed a ban on THC products spearheaded by Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick.

NEW — I spoke to DoorDash about the White House claiming the company's report shows "inflation has been tamed" and whether that's an interpretation one should make. An economist also weighed in, pointing out dictatorships use data obfuscation as a tool, and right now they're "grasping at straws."
WH claims 'inflation tamed,' per DoorDash stats. Company says that's not in its report.
It comes the same week we learned the WH would likely not release key economic reports for October.

Soon, we'll oversee a budget of more than $100 billion — and every dollar will reflect our commitment to working New Yorkers and delivering universal childcare. Good thing some little New Yorkers gave me a counting lesson today!

I support global climate cooperation, but skeptical: small actors act, big polluters stall. COP30 must listen to indigenous voices, they face the frontlines, while many others ignore the crisis. USA is not even attending. A joke.

The only reason the government got involved is because so many ostriges were bloating and dying on the farm (over 69 of them) that an anonymous call prompted an investigation. The farmers were given every opportunity to take care of them but instead turned it into a fundraiser / right wing op
