I actually don’t mean to be a broke and jobless journalist artist girl. It’s just what happened after I had 16 years of experience in journalism and no one wanted to work with me or hire me because of politics and me being trans.

Elon Musk makes $29.1 MILLION per hour, but thinks we’re spending too much on Social Security and Medicare 🧐

Any astronomy nerds on here who can tell me what the very bright star/planet in the western sky this morning (coastal California)? It's stationary (comparatively) so I don't think it's a satellite.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy

One of the most successful propaganda campaigns of our time is the right-wing claim that liberals dominate the media. The right has pushed this myth for decades on Fox and other outlets. You know about it because RIGHT-WING MEDIA HAVE A HUGE MEGAPHONE. My thread. 1/10 🧵

In February, Elon Musk posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He asked if we suffered childhood trauma and concluded by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This was my response.

JD Vance will never be president. I said the same of DeathSantis four years ago. They are both unlikeable guys.

Vance will fade, and/or if history is any judge, Trump will eventually turn on him and burn him to the ground. No one puts baby in a corner ; )
