Look I've been holding off from months asking this on Bluesky because of my pride but I need help.

My car needs brakes, my rent is past due and my step kid needs shoes.

I hate having to ask this

Don't worry. The banking family that made countless millions courting and partnering with the most evil people in the world eventually faced justice! (a $1M fine)

lol the rare double 9/11. almost have to respect it.

Jeff @tacosandhaircut.bsky.social · 1d

Holy crap, my bad. I jumped to conclusions here.

Apparently* this article is using the term "Young Republicans" to refer to republicans between 18 and 40. 🤪

*I don't give clicks to the rag owned by the scion and CEO of the family bank that hid blood money for both Pinochet and the 9/11 hijackers!

10,000 articles about kids on campus being too stridently in favor of peace and love for the taste of the shitliberati, and decades of "boys will be boys" for the campus hitler youth.

…on Pass on DirectTV for Business. A package priced the same as MLS Season Pass on Apple TV, that is the only legal way to show MLS on MLS Season Pass in a public venue.

Sign up for MLS Season Pass on Apple TV!!!

note: you don't need to buy an Apple TV or subscribe to Apple TV to watch MLS Season Pass on Apple TV, but you must subscribe to MLS Season Pass on Apple TV, and you can only watch MLS Season Pass on Apple TV. Unless you're at a bar where it's on MLS Seas…

Apple is promising "a vibrant new identity" with this fairly mild rebrand.

Apologies to former hitler youth: as I understand, that became mandatory indoctrination for actual children.

This is voluntary and gleeful hate spouted by adults jockeying for shotgun in the Orphan Crusher 2000.

Jeff @tacosandhaircut.bsky.social · 1d

decided to see if I coined "shitliberati". no hits on duckgo, a single hit on google (plus a full page explainer for this made up word that no one uses in "AI" Overview.)

And I left unsaid the most important thing.

We all need to rebuild community.

In order to make to make political change we need, yes, but most importantly because that is the entire point of living at all.

Let’s blame, harass and brutalize the homelessness out of ‘em. That’s the moderate stance! Republicans are building gulags.

The real solution—to poverty, drugs, petty crime—is act aggressively to mitigate inequity in society, and provide for whoever still lacks.

Tax the rich. (my moderate stance.)

Erica C. Barnett @ericacbarnett.bsky.social · 3d

Without getting into Burien's long history of policies that harm homeless residents, it's telling that every single city thinks they're doing more than their share and that the homeless people in their city are from "somewhere else." Everyone is doing too much and homeless people are from nowhere
