If you’re as sick of this Nazi hellscape as I am, come to Threads.

Having been on Threads for a couple of days, it feels sort of like Twitter. But much less white supremacists, QAnon weirdos and folks who hate on transgender Americans.
Also no pizza gate conspiracy guy.
And unlike Twitter, you don’t have to pay to amplify your speech.

A federal judge ruled on Friday that nearly all of North Carolina’s revised 12-week abortion law scheduled to begin this weekend can take effect, while temporarily blocking one rule that doctors feared could expose them to criminal penalties. to.pbs.org/3rgBErZ

You get 600 tweet views per day and 300 of them are just Elon replying “!” to white nationalists.

The Supreme Court's recent rulings were sadly predictable for anyone who understands the hard-right agenda. Their goal has always been to install Justices whose job is to turn back the clock on our freedoms, on decades of constitutional decisions, and on our continuing struggle to “form a more perfect union” that includes all of us.
Let's vote out their political enablers and rein in the dark, subversive money that supports them in their quest to reverse a century of progress.

A billionaire telling people to “touch grass” is wildddddd
People can’t touch grass because capitalists destroy forests to build plantations & police academies 🥴

Support memory by excluding tweets of @AuschwitzMuseum from the limits.
Most of our tweets commemorate individual victims of the Auschwitz camp on their birthdays. We remind their names, their faces and their fate.
They all deserve to be seen and remembered.

Collectively, these Congressional Republicans cheering on the Supreme Court overturning student debt relief for millions of hardworking Americans had $8,263,051 in PPP loans forgiven.
They refuse to extend the same relief to borrowers with student debt.

And while I'm generally not here to talk about the past, I can't at this moment resist pointing out that ALL OF THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF PEOPLE HAD VOTED FOR THE EMAIL LADY.

This is Wayne. He's trying to get your attention. Down here. No, further down. Squint if you have to. 12/10
ALT a yellowing grassy field on a cloudy day. it’s punctuated by a few trees and a path running through it. on the other side of the road, there’s a brownish field and a little red barn also surrounded by trees. oh, and way toward the bottom of the frame, there’s a really annoyed-looking tricolor bassett hound puppy who’s furious that it took you this long to notice him and his spectacular black ears that almost touch his toes.

I am begging men who are public figures to stop challenging each other to cage matches and just talk to a therapist. This is not as much concern for anyone's physical safety as it is an overwhelming sense of cringe being forced upon the rest of us when you embarrass yourself.

This is Finnigan, Murphy, and Ginger. Finnigan and Murphy like to play tug of war. Ginger likes to feel included. 13/10 for all

Florida is the second highest state in the nation with the most welfare recipients - including SNAP, TANF and Medicaid - and also has the second highest number of social security beneficiaries.
