Yeah IDK man, I'm pretty sure Ukraine's aid is gonna come to a swift end. They're already sharpening their knives over the failed attempt to blackmail Zelensky, which does not signal support for their war against Russia

That's the beauty! You could set up a separate feed that just collects your degeneracy, or tweak it to intersperse hot singles in your area with your sports shit posting. The idea is that since it's protocol driven and not platform driven, you control your own algorithm

Well he did hostilely take over the former "town square of discussion on the Internet" just to welcome all the nazis and sandyhook/911/plandemic truthers back. He forced himself and a mountain of shit into the middle of things. Honestly, that's the best feature of bluesky and the AT protocol. It's super easy to durably block out shitheads and prevent that crap from creeping back into your feed. You control your own algo, so you really can just have a descending timeline view and not get bombarded with bullshit and sex ads and hate

So the guy that believes that Ukraine is the aggressor in russia is also arguing that tech billionaires are being treated unfairly by the government?

And when they've been starving schools of funds and will deepen that with vouchers, ANY source of funds will be jumped at. From the article: The curriculum is optional for Texas public schools. They do not have to opt in, but a financial incentive exists if they choose to. If they do opt in, the state would give the district an extra $60 per student. "These budget-strapped districts may be looking to anything to help bring a few extra dollars into these very tight budget situations that they find themselves in," said Kelsey Kling, a government relations specialist and policy analyst for the Texas American Federation of Teachers. In recent weeks across the state, Molina said districts have been looking at cutting expenses and programs to ensure they can pay teachers and bills, and give students a quality education experience. "At this time, that's the only way to get a little bit of extra money for their school districts," Molina said. "We are seeing school districts passing by. It deficits, trying to figure out how they're going to ensure that their schools stay open, that their educators aren't rushed out of education in a state where we already have a teacher shortage, not just with the teachers this year, but of a shortage of people wanting to come into education because of all of the different burdens that are being put on our educators at this time."

My bad, got you crossed with handcrusher

It'll be interesting to see now long that infographic stays true for us, top and bottom

You're talking to someone who's entire livelihood is standing between patients and doctors and charging a handling fee to let them do medicine. He doesn't give a fuck about health outcomes, just that he gets a piece and can maintain his cognitive dissonance

I can't fathom a person calling Jan 6th an abomination then looking themselves in the mirror after voting Trump for a 3rd time. Unless they were fully committed to being a piece a shit. It's simple, crusher is voting with his wallet. He'll sell way more guns when society breaks down and everyone is more desperate

It's almost like the cruelty towards women is a feature and not a bug, or something.

I wonder if getting into a trade war with one of our largest and closest trading partners will help or hurt inflation https://apnews.com/article/mexico-tariffs-trump-retaliate-sheinbaum-fac0b0c6ee8c425a928418de7332b74a

Yeah the whole mantra of "when they go low, we go high" just means you get constantly undermined. Lowest pad height wins and all that

And that's a super effective tactic because even though it wasn't an issue he was focused on, the useful idiot boomers that lack criticality just believed it and got outraged at it

Many people are saying, yeah?

Dems need to stop living off of sucking corporate cock for sustenance. Their "for the people" rhetoric rings hollow when they constantly sell out workers or fail to show up and defend the little guy

He's also referencing Andrew fucking Tate the human trafficker and rapist by talking about """living in the matrix""". Absolutely insane how far that ideology has spread now

It's basically an approved material/curriculum, but districts aren't required to teach. It'll be in TEKS next year I'd bet though

Gilded age, dust bowl, rise of domestic fascism?

The real kicker for domestic agriculture and fishing is that climate change is gonna make previously arable regions into poor farmland, and the gulf will soon not be hospitable to the lifecycle of most sea life. Turns out water temps matter, and dumping all the waste we do into the gulf has deleterious effects on the ecology. Hell, there's barely any trout in the gulf anymore these days. The cycle of intense winter freeze followed by brutally hot summer has led to a bunch of fish kills each year

Lol the Shag constantly calling Plonsky a cunt probably didn't help with that action

I didn't think it was trademark - the university didn't take the site down because of the "Bevo" in the name. It was because the former owner made a shit business deal with a scumbag and got fucked over after the fact. The site was lost because the shitty business deal person successfully argued in court to a judge that shaggy was worth $350,000, based on Blacklab saying it was worth "tree fiddy" on a reddit AMA

Same shit different name, but it's the same problem. Unless we're just off the rails on day one, an executive order doesn't overrule the law

Interesting update https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/judge-review-alex-jones-attempt-block-infowars-sale-onion-rcna181377 Another bidder, First United American Companies, a limited liability company affiliated with Jones' dietary supplements business, had challenged the results of the auction after it said it bid twice as much cash as the Onion. ... But First United American Companies quickly contested the results, saying in an emergency filing attempting to block the sale that it had offered $3.5 million in cash — compared to the Onion's $1.75 million. The auction process approved by Lopez did not require Murray to automatically select the bidder that submitted the highest amount, and the trustee could reject the bid that was "contrary to the best interests" of the estate creditors. "I want a fair and transparent process, and let's see where that process goes," Lopez said, adding, "Everyone will have their day in court." At a prior court hearing following the auction, Murray said, "the creditors ended up significantly better off" under the Onion's bid. He also explained in a filing that the majority of Sandy Hook families were willing to forgo their share of the sale proceeds and instead take a percentage from future revenues from a revamped Infowars, which would allow the other creditors to collect more money.
