I'm tired of the News not knowing the difference between "news" and "gossip"...news has an impact on your life and the world around you, gossip's only value is to give a visceral thrill to the listener.
It's vexing.

Amazon, which got a huge billion dollar tax break from the Big Ugly Bill, is laying off 30,000 people.
It will never "trickle down," and you ain't in the club so stop asking.
Start voting like big businesses and milli/billionaires are your enemies. Because they are, and always have been.

I don't know why folks are so up in arms over that Brad Bonet guy... he was great in "Bullet Train." I hear he's quite the entertainer, born in the USA.
Some folks just like being screechingly angry.

Got a friend request today on one of the old SM from an account with pics that look like the grown up version of someone I went to Junior High with in the 80s. Name isn't anything like matching, but eh?
While I think it's a bot account, the familiarity of the face.... it bugs me.

If you're willing to yammer about Kimmel's freedoms, you better also talk about Ruffin, Attiah, etc. Step up! We ain't done.
Speaking of voices under attack…can we be just as loud about Black journalists and comedians who are silenced, even by our so-called liberal outlets.

It's difficult to post anything really positive lately. Trumplefraudskin and his magatcult are doing everything they can to make the US into a pedophile protecting kleptocracy.
Go out and make your neighborhood better. Volunteer, do what you can to fight back against the enshitification.

"The most interesting thing about the blahblahblah is that Trump is in the Epstien files."
Yes. It doesn't matter what that blahblahblah is. Could be anything, and it's immaterial.
Because trump is a child SAer and a human trafficker, and his regime is covering it up.
