Literally just fixed itself, just in time for the economy to be fucked to hell again by the antichrist.

I wish it were called tele-smell

Smell-o-vision makes it seem like it’s a synthesia device

It’s a very long article with many examples, but these highlight well

One 82-year-old woman, who wore pajamas with holes in them because she didn’t want to spend money on new ones, didn’t realize she had given Republicans more than $350,000 while living in a 1,000 square-foot Baltimore condo since 2020.

By the time a Taiwanese immigrant from California passed away from lung cancer this year at age 80, she had given away more than $180,000 to Trump’s campaign and a litany of other Republican candidates – writing letters to candidates apologizing for not getting donations to them on time because she was going into heart surgery. She had only $250 in her bank account when she died, leaving her family scrambling to cover the cost of her funeral.

And a 78-year-old, a widow who limited showers to save on her water bill and canceled her long-term care insurance, didn’t understand why the retirement savings her husband had left her was dwindling so quickly. After CNN reached out to her family, they learned that the woman gave more than $200,000 in donations to Democratic political groups and candidates.

This whole thing is a plague, citizens United and this concept of pacs, and all this money in politics is absurd. I think in the modern day of internet and with each campaign setting up a website, and normal reporting and debates, town halls, and Rally’s is sufficient, we don’t need all these mailers, and constant ads, and texts, and so on and so on. it’s more just a giant transfer of wealth from the people to networks and ad agencies.

All this money has turned politics towards sensationalism, and it’s hurting society.

Broken clock’s right twice a day

This site is worse than a repost

The source is a reddit post it seems and Hindustan times is just doing a highlight reel of that post without linking it. Hindustan times has a low credibility score from https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/hindustan-times and didn’t add any journalism

~~Searching it’s quote’s (being forced to use Google, since they pay Reddit to index them …) it comes from this article https://www.reddit.com/r/antiwork/comments/1fb097q/where_would_you_report_this_kind_of_behaviour/~~

And doing a quick skim of comments there was no additional clarity.

So… Probably not real

UPDATE: I found the source, from yelp, with the name uncensored: https://www.yelp.com/biz/maxines-sparta

It’s a small restaurant in Michigan, there’s already people giving them flak and bad reviews, so please don’t add to that

Roughly 12,600 7/11’s in the US, so a 0.01% chance of any individual 7/11 getting a car on a given day, or a 1 in a thousand chance.

According to this https://slate.com/business/2022/06/car-crash-buildings-how-many.html about a 100 cars crash into buildings each day, so 7/11 makes up 1% of building crashes, but that tracks since a lot of people go to there for quick needs with distracted minds.

I don’t have much of a point, but the statistics don’t paint a some scary point that I think the lawyers are trying to make.

I think we’re saying the same thing.

We can’t go into the 2028 general strike thinking about self preservation - we can’t go into the 2028 general strike unprepared.

We have less than 4 years to lay the ground work for a success that cannot be defeated by the capitalist class.

In my mind, that means all the above:

• Voting allied people into federal, state, and local governments who won’t massacre us this time, including sheriffs and mayors and governors and judges

• Gathering people together to understand each other and build rapport and trust

• Building the list of goals and demands so we have a definition of success that can be capitulated

• Organizing support networks to ensure we don’t starve or get evicted and etc, while on strike

The capitalist class will have an intelligence operation, they will know if they can simply wait us out or exploit weaknesses - if we prepare right, they will know that their best option is to give into our demands. The more prepared and united we are, the faster they’ll surrender.

Those that can save, should, so that they can help their neighbors and colleagues who can’t.

We are only powerful if we work together, and that means those that can save excess money, should, and also be bold enough to offer support, and those that can’t should prepare in other ways like organizing and promoting, and be bold enough to seek support when they need it.

We win this together, not individually.

It also makes a really good grilled cheese

What’s even more wild is that May Day was chosen to commerate the Haymarket Massacre in America after Americans had a real General Strike in 1886 and were executed, beaten, and jailed for it by the capitalist class.

Important to note, Shawn Fain of the UAW is organizing a General Strike on May Day of 2028. Start saving now, prepare, and be ready to participate and support your neighbors, your colleagues, and your self.

Yup, it’s no longer a pandemic, it is now endemic.

Humanity lost the war. Collectively, we were not good enough. Now covid is here to stay forever like the common cold and flu are.

But covid may have yet to be understood long term impacts. Some are interpreting the data like that of HIV before we understood it could progress into AIDS because the disease has not been around long enough.

Bullshit. She’s great, with a long track record to back that up.

Not only is she not old and not in mental decline, but she’s also charismatic, engaging, and she is progressive. Congress and the courts will limit her policies of course, but that’s by design, the government is not just the president.

Beyond that, with picking Walz and other strategic picks in her campaign, she’s shown that she knows how to form a good team and avoid landmines.

I’m looking forward to the Harris presidency and voting For her, not just against Trump.

The establishment is not going to give up, they must be beaten at their own game. Perseverance is key. If you give up, you give up on your cause and accept whatever the establishment wishes.

Do what you want, but I will persevere, and I will vote for my interests.

Why do you put today’s date when it was in the 1980s?

Sometimes the original date is contextually important
