You need to be slowmaxxing. You need to be reading long, fat books. You need to be making 48-hour chocolate chip cookies. You need to spend hours watching wildlife, you need to spend 15+ min making your coffee. You need to breathe in and breathe out. You need to be slowwwwwwwwww.

A Congressperson can be missing while paid for 6 months without repercussions, but if a service worker sits in a break room for 10 min on the clock it is called theft of time and they get fired.

all of this theater for killing one person pisses me the fuck off when they call school shootings inevitable and do LITERALLY nothing to try and stop them. anything to protect fucking ceos but slaughtered children are just the cost of freedom.

Reminder—student loans exist because Reagan was a racist & misogynist who didn't want "undesirables" (women & minorities) to get higher education so he defunded public education & forced privatization—thus canceling student loans is an economic, racial, & gender justice necessity

Billionaires can write off the entire cost of their private jets and yachts on their taxes, but teachers can only write off up to $300 of school supplies for their classrooms. This is what an oligarchy looks like.

they've historically handed off packages to *THE US POSTAL SERVICE* for "last-mile delivery," for which the usps is the largest carrier in america. you guys are so confident despite knowing nothing. it's amazing lol

how do UPS, FedEx, DHL, etc manage to deliver to rural areas then?

Our new rule makes it clear to airlines that all checked wheelchairs and other mobility devices must be returned to a passenger in the same condition as received. This standard will enable the Department to better hold airlines accountable.

3 people died today in a school shooting in Wisconsin. Nothing will happen as a result of their deaths. 1 rich guy gets killed and the entire country is moving mountains like we’ve never seen before. Fuck, this shit just gets so tiring.

School shooting in Madison, WI. Police chief said “Stop asking why schools don’t have bullet proof glass & metal detectors at all the doors. Ask why schools HAVE to. That’s the question that needs to be asked”

Oh wow the founder of Amazon wants to get rid of the public postal service? You don't say. Is this what it looks like to "Drain the Swamp?"

Trump confirms some interest in privatizing the USPS. He says it’s not the worst idea he’s ever heard. It came in the context of his forthcoming dinner with Jeff Bezos.



How LE dealt with this woman reminds me of #SonjaMassey

Ajike Owens’ children were playing in a field near an apartment complex when a white woman yelled racial slurs at them and said to get off her land. The children left behind an iPad which she stole. When one of the children came back to retrieve it she threw it at him and hit…

friendly reminder that the USPS kept running full steam during the pandemic, and became essential for getting medications, supplies, STIMULUS CHECKS, and more to every home in america.
