Meet Maya! She sleeps anywhere. She flops down and just decides to nap. She is a lazy cat, unless there is chicken. Then she meows for it and even tries to steal it. She loves chicken so much, they have to spell out the word “nugget” when she is around. #catsofmastodon #dontsaynugget #chicken #lazycats




I would be more than happy to pay a one-time fee to have my identity verified on a social media platform. But what on earth justifies a continued monthly payment that? (And this is about Instagram, not Twitter, because Twitter "verification" doesn't even come with THAT haha.)

Afroman's home was raided by the police, but nothing was found. Afroman then turned the footage of the raid into a music video. Now, the officers are suing him over "emotional distress, embarrassment, ridicule, loss of reputation, and humiliation."

Maybe the GOP’s obsession with drag story time “indoctrinating kids” is they’re terrified children might fall under the spell of reading literature.




#billionaires
People should be able to make and have assets of around $1M if they work hard all of their lives, save hard and get paid what they are worth maybe even a few hundred. The only way someone makes around 1000 lifetimes or more worth of money is by sucking the life out of other and exploiting them. There is no other way that is possible. TAX them! Until we make it impossible for them to exist TAX them so we can at least get some of our life back.

Lucas has always been dismissive of his fans. He also thinks lazy writing for kids media is just fine.
in reply to anubis2814

Just because he wrote it without thinking about it doesn't mean we have to read it (watch it, whatever) without thinking about it




There is more theft via wage theft than by shop lifting every year, we need to correct that one way or another.

We really should've tried congestion pricing in another city first. Like, say, DC or Seattle or Albuquerque. You know, one of those cities where no one commutes by car from other parts of the city or the suburbs.

He'd better get a move on otherwise by the time it takes its maiden voyage it's going to be difficult to find a big enough iceberg.

How can a complete idiot become a billionaire? Ipso facto, a complete idiot becoming a billionaire indicates how impoverished this society is.

American drivers are now even more distracted by their phones. Pedestrian deaths are soaring.

"During the pandemic, American drivers got even more distracted by their phones while driving. The amount of distracted driving hasn’t receded, even as life has mostly stabilized...both phone motion and screen interaction while driving went up roughly 20 percent between 2020-2022."

If workers fighting for fair wages and treatment is an “attack” on your economic model….

the southern states are addicted to enslavement, even after getting the shit kicked out of them by General Grant. They will never learn. One solution is for consumers to not buy goods from these accursed lands and look at the #uaw site to help with their next auto purchase.

so at 42 ships per day this type of disaster would be expected once every 6.5 years.
in reply to The Conversation U.S.

Since the bridge has been around for nearly 47 years, that’s pretty good odds of a disaster. Research indicates Baltimore harbor currently handles about 1800 large vessels per year. I prefer safety numbers in the 10 x -7 and better. Where were the tugs?

I remember when I was a kid, if someone was in therapy, people talked about it in hushed tones, like it was a shameful secret, and now people talk about it casually in every day conversation. It's good to see that things can change, even if it's just a bit.
in reply to Ricki Is Not A Wizard Tarr

Sadly most of the therapy is devoid of evidentiary support for its effectiveness and is an expensive scam.

So true ... I was seeing a psychiatrist at 6 I think, due to not listening ... At first they thought I had a hearing problem ... I was a leper in primary school ... And it didn't help that my mum was a single mother in the late 70's in a high religious area ... A lot of hush tones

There are some truths that when you think about them, they can inform your actions. The biggest one is that there is enough food that no human should go hungry. There are enough resources so that everyone can have shelter. The fact that we have hunger and homelessness is a direct result of billionaires and the lack of will to fix distribution of the food and houses. It is a direct result of greed. -> more #NoBillionaires #hunger #homelessness #taxbillionaires
